You will be on top of the world – this lot offers clear views of the Pacific Ocean including Cano Island, Terraba River and mangroves framed by lush valleys, farms and jungle covered hills. Turn around and the towering 1,300 metre (4,300 foot) coastal mountains amaze with their nearly vertical slopes, old growth jungle ridges and giant seasonal waterfalls. Clouds and mists often meander between their peaks and down their valleys, creating a surreal experience.
A quick walk will bring you into the jungle and a magical crystal mountain river with multiple swim holes and burbling rapids that create a truly mesmerising ambience. Jungle animals like macaws, toucans, capuchin and howler monkeys, oropendolas, mesmerising blue morpho butterflies and many others make the surrounding forests their home – they will be your new neighbours!
This peaceful, quiet and nature-infused environment is hidden from the hassle and bustle of the local hot spots but just a short drive away from all the services, amenities and attractions you can imagine. This is TRES RIOS, a laid-back, lush and serene area right next door to the tourist and expat hub of OJOCHAL.
The lot fronts a well-maintained public road and is accessed via a nicely prepared internal driveway. A beautiful gate guards the entrance and a gentle ascending drive will bring you to the big, flat plantel which is ready to be developed with minimal delay. A large ocean view hacienda with an infinity pool? A smaller house with an enveloping tropical garden or orchard, a yoga deck or gazebo, or perhaps a small separate home office? Or an additional stand-alone Airbnb cabin? A café, boutique hotel or a quiet retreat? So many possibilities and whatever your vision, the result will be SPECTACULAR!
The lot is fully prepared for construction to start without delay and includes complete blueprints, documents and construction permits for a current house design.

Now let me tell you about the jungle river! A quick walk down a prepared path and suddenly you are under a towering forest with the sounds of nature and the burble of the water enveloping you from all directions. The mountain river flows year-round forming natural swim holes, mini-rapids and waterfalls as it squeezes between rocks and crevices. The air here is noticeably cooler and this little piece of paradise will bring you and your guests year-round joy.
