Ocean View Estate in Portalón | 4 Bed / 4.5 Bath

Set 1,100 feet above sea level on 2.5 acres along Costa Rica's South Pacific coast, this 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath estate delivers panoramic whitewater ocean views stretching from Manuel Antonio National Park to the Osa Peninsula. At 4,305 square feet, the home opens with a modern foyer featuring high ceilings and polished concrete floors that flow into a large open-concept living and dining area. Wall-to-wall recessed sliding glass doors blur the line between indoors and out, filling every room with natural light and sweeping ocean and valley views.

The spacious chef's kitchen anchors the main level, while outside, a full deck, pool, and jacuzzi with LED lighting set the stage for year-round outdoor living. Cool cross-breezes move through the house naturally, keeping the climate comfortable without heavy AC reliance.

The principal suite sits on the first floor with direct ocean and valley views, joined by a second suite with its own private patio. Upstairs, two additional suites open onto generous balconies — one includes built-in bunk beds sleeping up to five, a smart touch for families or vacation rental guests.

Sustainability is built in, not bolted on. A solar energy package with battery backup keeps the home powered while staying connected to the grid. Lightweight Steel Frame construction delivers seismic resilience, and insulation between the roof and walls adds soundproofing and energy efficiency. A bio-digester replaces traditional leach fields, and a 5,000-liter backup water tank adds peace of mind. Ethernet wiring throughout supports security systems, entertainment, and remote work — a must for expat professionals.

Exotic hardwood craftsmanship in Cenízaro, teak, mango, and Guanacaste appears throughout the furniture, stairs, and cabinetry. The original owners reforested the property with over 100 tropical rainforest species, drawing toucans, monkeys, and other wildlife to the grounds daily.

An additional whitewater ocean view building site on the property opens the door for a guest house, casita, or second rental unit. The estate also comes with a proven rental history and an existing support team — chef/concierge, landscaper, and housekeeper — making it turnkey for income or personal use.

Portalón sits in the hills above the Southern Pacific coast, one of the most sought-after corridors for Costa Rica real estate.
