# Finca Aracari: A Rainforest Sanctuary Near Dominical
Nestled within the verdant embrace of Lagunas, this exceptional 9.17-acre property delivers the authentic Costa Rica tropical lifestyle that discerning buyers seek—complete seclusion merged seamlessly with proximity to amenities and just 15 minutes from the pristine shores of Playa Dominical. Dominical has evolved into a thriving hub for conscious travelers and remote professionals, attracting those who prioritize environmental stewardship alongside modern connectivity.
Crafted by world-traveled conservationists who deliberately chose this location for its unparalleled biodiversity, lush climate, and natural splendor, the property demonstrates thoughtful stewardship through an extensive orchard of organically planted fruit trees—bananas, plantains, coffee, cacao, mangos, papayas, carambolas, and citrus varieties—woven harmoniously into the existing rainforest canopy. Daily wildlife encounters confirm the land's ecological vitality, while a seasonal creek and established walking trails invite exploration across the pristine forest expanse.
**The Main Residence**
The primary home reveals itself through a gated forest approach, opening beneath soaring vaulted ceilings crafted from teak, oak, corteza, and Cristobal wood. An expansive open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area anchors the design, featuring generous counter space, a central island ideal for preparing meals with fresh regional ingredients, and comprehensive storage through a walk-in pantry and spacious laundry room with built-in shelving.
A striking wood-burning study with traditional warmth provides respite during cool rainy season evenings and readily converts to a third bedroom or guest quarters. The principal suite flows from this study through a dedicated walk-in dressing room and adjoins a spa-like full ensuite bathroom.
The residence's crown jewel—a covered terrace embracing a contemplative Zen courtyard garden centered on a koi pond—seamlessly connects to a second bedroom suite with full bathroom. This guest chamber opens onto a detached sitting deck offering sweeping vistas across the fruit orchards toward the surrounding jungle-clad hills.
**The Guest Casita**
Positioned above the main residence with its own independent entrance and driveway, this self-contained studio efficiently combines an open bedroom, kitchenette, and full bathroom within 500 square feet. An expansive wrap-around porch facilitates outdoor living, while generous rear storage accommodates equipment and supplies. The casita's separate infrastructure makes it ideal for short-term Airbnb income, long-term tenant arrangements, or multigenerational family visits.
**The Land**
An additional flat building pad above the casita awaits development—whether for a supplementary guest home, resort-style pool, or additional income-generating rental unit. A seasonal watercourse bisects the property, and meticulously maintained trails access remote forest corners throughout the 3.69-hectare expanse.
Municipal water service via the Lagunas ASADA system ensures reliable supply, while recently installed 25 mbps fiber optic hardline internet (expandable upon request) delivers professional-grade connectivity to both structures—enabling seamless remote work from this jungle sanctuary.
