Mountain Home + Guest Villa in Tinamastes | 3 Bed / 2.5 Bath

High in the hills of Tinamastes, between Dominical and San Isidro, this 0.62-acre property (2,500 m²) gives you something the coast can't: cool mountain air, quiet mornings and wildlife all around, with the beach still within easy reach.

The property has two separate buildings. The main house is a 1,054 sq. ft. single-story home with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. The living room and fully equipped kitchen open onto a large covered corridor, a natural spot for morning coffee, reading in the fresh air or watching birds move through the trees. The primary bedroom has its own private bathroom. The second room works as a bedroom, a home office or flexible space, which suits expats who work remotely.

There is parking beside the main house, plus open space with room for a pool or jacuzzi if you want to build your own outdoor living area.

The land slopes gently down toward the woods, where you'll find the independent 260 sq. ft. guest villa. It has a king-size bed, a full bathroom and an open area set up for a future kitchenette, with plumbing and electrical connections already in place. Use it for visiting family, friends who stay for weeks, or a quiet retreat of your own.

For buyers browsing Costa Rica homes for sale, this setup is hard to find: a comfortable main residence, private guest quarters and a cooler climate, all with easy access. San Isidro is close by for supermarkets, banks, medical services and shopping. Dominical Beach, with its surf, restaurants and sunsets, is a short drive down the mountain, and Nauyaca Waterfalls is nearby for hiking and swimming.

If your relocation plans include space for guests and relief from coastal heat, this is a practical, well-placed option in Southern Pacific Costa Rica real estate.

From here, the wider Costa Ballena region is easy to explore. In Uvita, Marino Ballena National Park is famous for its Whale Tail sandbar, seasonal whale watching and dolphin tours, while the town itself has a relaxed, welcoming expat community. It's a big reason Uvita property for sale remains among the most sought-after on the Pacific coast.
