93-Acre Off-Grid Farm in Uvita | Ocean & Mountain Views

Sitting at 1,000 meters above sea level in the Aguas Buenas highlands above Uvita, this 93-acre off-grid farm delivers the kind of self-sufficient Costa Rica lifestyle most people only dream about. Sweeping ocean, mountain, and valley views stretch out from every corner of the property — from the existing structure and pool to the additional building sites ready for development.

This is a serious homestead. A natural spring feeds a mechanical pumping system, and with the nearest electric pole roughly four kilometers out, solar panels and batteries keep everything running independently. The land includes hectares of primary rainforest and cloud forest, a creek, and rich volcanic soil at an altitude perfectly suited for growing coffee, cacao, tropical fruits, and exotic crops year-round. Approximately 85 tropical hardwoods — including Spanish Cedar, Amarillion, and Ron-ron — have already been planted for future harvesting. Add to that around 70 organic banana plants, 50-plus fruit trees, and various bamboo species already producing on the property.

Warm days and cool nights at this elevation make for an ideal growing climate and comfortable full-time living. Wildlife is abundant: sloths, monkeys, white-nosed coatis, parrots, and dozens of other bird species share the land. The property works beautifully for a large family compound or multiple families looking to build separate homes while sharing acreage for sustainable food production.

Despite its off-grid privacy, the farm stays well connected. San Isidro de El General — home to one of the country's best farmers markets — is just 45 minutes away. The beaches of Uvita and the Marino Ballena coastline are about 40 minutes downhill, and San Josecito is 55 minutes out. You get true rural seclusion without sacrificing access to towns, healthcare, or the coast.

Uvita has become one of the most sought-after areas for Costa Rica real estate among North American expats, offering a rare balance of jungle living, Pacific coastline, and a welcoming international community. For buyers exploring Costa Rica homes for sale with real acreage and off-grid capability, this Uvita property for sale stands apart. If relocation to Costa Rica means building something meaningful on your own terms, this farm is where that starts.
