Property overview

# Finca Alesan: 16.5 Acres of Uvita's Most Coveted Coastal Land

Savvy investors understand that prime parcels in the Southern Zone vanish quickly—and few offerings combine the rare trifecta of accessibility, dramatic terrain, and unobstructed vistas like this one.

Positioned atop the first coastal ridge a mere 15 minutes from Uvita's town center, this 16.5-acre sanctuary commands sweeping panoramas across Isla Ballena, Boca Coronado, and extending south toward the Osa Peninsula and Caño Island. To the inland boundary, thousands of hectares of pristine primary forest reserve stretch unbroken—a living buffer where howler monkeys' calls punctuate the canopy daily. This is where Costa Rica's untamed character remains palpable and protected.

The property descends to the crystalline Rio Ballena, a coastal watershed tributary that feeds the greater El Tigre watershed system. At its lowest point lies an extraordinary private swimming hole—an emerald pool exceeding 20 feet in depth. The geography of this remote river gorge renders the swimming hole virtually inaccessible except via these 16.5 acres, guaranteeing an exceptional sense of seclusion. A maintained trail connects the upper property to the water's edge, where a small riverside cabin awaits those seeking immersion in the primary rainforest.

Development-ready infrastructure stands prepared. A legal, permitted solar well provides immediate water supply, with a secondary spring source available for expansion. An ocean-view building site with utilities in place awaits construction, while comfortable temporary quarters and caretaker's accommodations currently occupy the land—ideal for immediate occupancy or transition periods.

The property's versatility—whether envisioned as a private estate, wellness retreat, or intimate boutique hotel—positions it within 15 minutes of Uvita's growing amenities and services.

**Combined Purchase Opportunity:** The seller also owns Casa de Paz, an ocean-view villa with guest house and three titled development lots situated five minutes from Uvita. Substantial price reduction and owner financing are available when both properties are purchased together.
