Welcome to La Sombra Villas, a private mountain sanctuary where contemporary architecture meets elevated treehouse living. Nestled in the cool mountains of Tinamastes, just minutes from the world-famous Nauyaca Waterfalls and only an 18-minute scenic drive to Dominical Beach, this one-of-a-kind property blends wild jungle beauty with modern sophistication.
Set on 2.5 lush and private acres, La Sombra is a secure jungle retreat designed for peace, privacy, and connection with nature. Surrounded by towering trees, mountain breezes, and the gentle sounds of flowing water, the property offers a rare sense of calm where life slows down and every breath feels a little deeper.
La Sombra features three thoughtfully designed private villas, each combining natural textures, warm materials, and modern comforts to create a truly unique retreat experience.
The Main Sombra Villa is the heart of the property. Its open-concept kitchen and living space flows effortlessly onto a spacious covered terrace with outdoor dining and lounge areas. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the surrounding jungle canopy, filling the home with natural light and vibrant greenery. Inside, warm décor and a striking dual-sided fireplace create a cozy atmosphere enjoyed from both the indoor living space and the outdoor dining terrace. The kitchen is beautifully finished with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Just outside, a cascading waterfall feature adds a soothing natural soundtrack to everyday living.
The primary suite enjoys tranquil canopy views through expansive windows and features a spacious ensuite bathroom with dual vanity. On the lower level, a generous guest suite includes three convertible twin beds that can be arranged as a queen or king configuration, along with a private bathroom and sitting area.
Along the jungle walkway from the main villa, you’ll discover one of the property’s most memorable features: a 12-person jungle-view Jacuzzi overlooking the sloping forest below. Designed for year-round comfort, the Jacuzzi can also be cooled during warmer days. A nearby cascading waterfall feature enhances the peaceful, spa-like atmosphere.
Further along the path sits Bruma Villa, a private studio retreat surrounded by jungle and mountain views. This inviting space features an open studio layout with a fully equipped galley kitchenette, two queen beds, a full bathroom, and a spacious covered terrace for outdoor dining and relaxation.
Across the property lies Solana Villa, offering another beautifully designed studio suite with a queen bed, galley kitchenette, full bathroom, and private outdoor terrace. The lower level includes the fifth bedroom with its own ensuite bathroom, featuring floor to ceiling window wall to immerse you in nature. Each villa is carefully curated with an elegant balance of organic materials, natural textures, and modern design, creating a cohesive and unforgettable jungle retreat experience.
At the top of the property sits a large flat area currently used for parking, offering excellent potential for additional construction such as another villa, yoga pavilion, or recreation facilities.
Trails meander through the lush landscape to the lower portion of the property where a beautiful cascading stream flows year-round. Explore along the water’s edge and discover small natural waterfalls, creating a magical private oasis fully immersed in nature. Fruit trees, vines and herbs are planted throughout the property. The 27,000 liter water reserve and a triple step filtration system provides pure natural water from the stream on the property, while the rain catchment system serves as a secondary water source. Paved entrance road and gated entrance with keypad and remote contribute to ease of access, as well as a 12 camera security system provides to provide peace of mind.
Located just off the paved highway between Dominical and Pérez Zeledón, near the vibrant communities of Platanillo and Tinamaste, La Sombra is easily accessible. The property is perfectly suited for multi-unit airbnb income property or as a private family compound.
