123-Acre Mountain Farm in Uvita | River, Waterfalls & Forest

This 123-acre farm in San Josecito de Morete offers one of the most compelling large-scale land opportunities in the Uvita mountains — a rare chance to own a vast stretch of Costa Rica real estate with primary forest, river frontage, waterfalls, and year-round springs.

The property breaks down to roughly 80% dense primary and secondary forest and 20% open grazing land, all bordered along its lower edge by the Rio Morete, which flows directly into the Pacific at Marino Ballena National Park. An internal road already connects multiple building sites through the middle of the farm, with room to expand access and develop additional homesites across the acreage.

Right now the land is used for cattle farming and maintained as a biological reserve — but the potential here runs deep. Think luxury mountain homes, a wellness retreat, a family compound, or an eco-lodge development. The topography supports dozens of strategically placed structures, each with cool mountain breezes and filtered ocean air at elevation.

For anyone drawn to self-sufficient living, the farm delivers. Multiple natural springs and the river provide potable water for domestic use, livestock, and crop irrigation. The fertile soil supports vegetables, legumes, and tropical fruit — mango, papaya, pineapple, avocado, and citrus all grow here. Large pasture areas can sustain cattle, horses, and goats. Waterfalls formed by the river and its springs run through the property, creating a landscape that feels untouched.

This Uvita property for sale sits less than 20 minutes from town on a paved road. Uvita serves as the hub for daily life — restaurants, medical clinics, supermarkets, and hardware stores are all within easy reach. For expats considering relocation to Costa Rica's Southern Zone, this corridor between the mountains and the coast represents one of the most desirable stretches along the Pacific side.

The greater Uvita and Ojochal area has become a magnet for North American buyers seeking Costa Rica homes for sale with privacy, nature, and community. International schools, a growing expat network, and proximity to beaches like Playa Uvita and Dominical make this region one of the most livable in the country.
