Acqua Blu – The Crown Jewel of Escaleras

Property overview

Completed in 2025 on a 5,500 m² ridge site in Escaleras above Dominical, Acqua Blu represents one of the most comprehensively finished private residences currently available anywhere on Costa Rica's Pacific coast. Five bedroom suites, each with its own five-piece bathroom, are distributed across a structure where custom-fabricated glass walls retract fully to merge the interiors with the deck and a 360-degree infinity-edge saltwater pool that reads against the Pacific horizon.

The construction materials tell the story: Spanish anti-slip tile floors throughout, a floating staircase from a custom steel entry, an LED lighting system that transitions the home after dark, and electric custom shades that move with quiet precision. The chef's kitchen includes Invisacook induction cooktops and double stainless refrigerators. A lounge and billiards bar is finished to club standards. The wellness center combines a gym, cold plunge, steam room, and sauna in a single facility. A 10-person jacuzzi faces the ocean. A sunken fire pit accommodates fifteen people and opens directly to the night sky above the jungle canopy.

Escaleras is one of the most established high-end communities on the southern Pacific coast — a ridge road above Dominical where the elevation provides consistent breezes, cooler temperatures, and views that extend north and south along the coastline. The community's cachet comes partly from exactly this kind of property: the kind of residence that sets a value floor for the surrounding area.

At $5,690,000, Acqua Blu is priced at the top of the Costa Rican residential market — and its specification, construction quality, and site leave little room to argue with the positioning.
