Contact beachousecr1@gmail.com for more info
Beautifully designed beachfront house with spectacular ocean views and an amazing tropical garden.
This artists’ designed beach house is located on the very lush Caribbean coast of Costa Rica that is known for its biodiversity and ecotourism. It is in the fisherman’s village of Cahuita, a very laid back Caribbean beach town with a reggae and calypso vibe…
There is a nice balance between a large community of expats and Afro Caribbean, Spanish and Indigenous locals living all together. Many locals are bilingual in English and Spanish.
There is also a national park, which is known for its hiking trail in the rain forest along beautiful white sand beaches. Dwell in the enchanted scents of the rain forest and enjoy the sounds of waves and animals such as monkeys, sloths , toucans, etc, along the way…
This Caribbean beach house is designed by New York-based artists designers with a minimalist, Japanese-like contemporary vision.
It is located on a sought-after stretch of Playa Grande and is a perfect place for someone seeking solitude and privacy.
Yet, it is located only 2.5 km (easily bike-able/walkable) to the park and the center of town that has many restaurants, bars, groceries and other amenities.
And even closer there is a small local grocery store and a cozy restaurant, and two more bars and restaurants farther along Playa Negra.
Cahuita is located 13 km from the party town of Puerto Viejo and all the beaches along Cocles, Punta Uva, Manzanillo.
It is 3 hours (202 km / 125 miles) from San Jose (SJO international airport) and 41 km (25 miles) from Limon, which has a
small airport with connecting flights to San Jose.

Enjoy soaring ceiling height, indoor/outdoor living aesthetics, loft-like spaces and a spectacular long deck to enjoy the surrounding wildlife in the tree canopy. Wake up to a beautiful sunrise, a symphony of birds and the occasional call of howler monkeys.
The entire upper floor has spectacular ocean and garden views.
The main bedroom has its own bathroom, the kitchen, the living room (could be converted to a studio or extra bedroom), guest bathroom and a huge deck with different sitting areas.
The lower floor has a bodega for storage and a full guest suite:
one bedroom, kitchenette and a full bath.
This suite is connected to the upper floor, and also has a separate entrance to accommodate full privacy if rented.
The lower deck is used as a large open space with many possibilities such as yoga, Pilates, dance, workshop, furniture making, etc.
It is currently used for a ping pong table, a hammock, 2 sitting areas and a small outdoor dining table for the guest suite.
Casita or bungalow
There is a separate caretakers’ casita with a one bedroom, full bath and a full kitchen/dining area with a small deck that could be used also to be rented for extra income.
Next to the casita, there is an outdoor washer, a separate cement bodega for tools and a separate chicken house that can accommodate a dozen hens.
Yes! You can have your own organic eggs :)
This beach house property is built on a beautiful piece of land with unusually very wide frontage compared to other properties. Because of this, and the design of the house, it is naturally ventilated.
Also, there are many old fruit trees such as mangos and avocados, as well as other tropical fruits such as coconut, banana, papaya, guava, cocoa, caimito, carambola, kas, mangoustan, guanabana, mamon chino, sapote…
Overall, this amazing beach house property offers a lot of flexibility depending on your needs.
You can live part time, full time, work from a distance or quit your job and have income. There is the possibility to build one more bedroom and even one more casita without compromising the design and aesthetics of the house.
