A unique chance to own a property for sale in Pavones, Golfito, located in Punta Saleas and just 200 meters from the beach.
This 2.43-hectare (6-acre) lot is one of the last large parcels available so close to the ocean in this highly desirable surf and wellness region. Therefore, it is ideal for investors, developers, and boutique tourism projects.
The land is mainly flat, open, and ready to build, offering excellent flexibility for architectural design and potential subdivision. As a result, it provides a wide range of development options.
Between the property and the ocean lies the protected Zona Marítimo Terrestre, a national heritage zone where construction is restricted.
However, because this property borders the ZMT, owners have legal priority to apply for tourism-use permits, opening the door to exclusive opportunities such as walking trails, beachfront access, or low-impact eco-tourism projects.
In addition, the current owners already initiated the ZMT process and will transfer all documentation and progress to the new buyer. This provides significant added value and a strong competitive advantage.
Furthermore, the neighboring property of 4.2 acres is also for sale, creating a combined opportunity of more than 10 acres for larger-scale development.
Pavones is world-renowned for its legendary left-hand wave, attracting surfers from across the globe.
Yet the region offers much more: a relaxed lifestyle rooted in nature, community, and wellness. Here you’ll find yoga retreats, organic markets, ocean activities, local dining, fishing, whale watching, jungle hikes, and a deep sense of authenticity.
For this reason, Pavones remains one of the most genuine coastal regions in Costa Rica. Demand is rising quickly, while available land continues to shrink — which means that now is a strategic moment to invest.
