Situated right on the beach in Costa Rica’s Central Pacific, Playa Esterrillos del Este, this luxuriously private beach escape is the latest listing to join the portfolio at HRG Properties and Rentals. Conveniently located just 2 hours from Juan Santamaria International Airport in San Jose, this lovely 3 bedroom, 4 bathroom private retreat is perfectly placed just 25 minutes south of Jaco Beach (with all of its nightlife, entertainment, shopping and activities) and an hour north of Costa Rica’s renowned Manuel Antonio National Park.

Tranquil and secluded, Esterillos is a collection of beach communities named for the region’s estuaries and rivers: Esterillos Oeste (West), Esterillos Centro (Centro) and Esterillos Este (East). Very few people, miles of dark-sand shoreline, and awesome surf breaks best describe the area. Majestic palms and almond trees line the forest edge, meeting consistently perfect surf breaks and tide pools, which invite you to go for a swim or catch some awesome waves on your board. Vaulted bamboo ceilings, open concept kitchen, living room and dining area, breakfast bar, and floor to ceiling windows and glass doors let the sunshine and rainforest beach surroundings in. Immaculately tailored grounds feature a free form pool, expansive decking, concrete walkways, a fire pit, and private, gated, direct access to the beach.

Outdoor seating, an al fresco dining area, outdoor kitchen and restroom are perfect for outdoor living and entertaining, while the custom, open-air teak yoga deck with its thatched- palapa roof lets you enjoy daily yoga sessions to the sound of crashing waves beyond. Privacy, shade and exotic aesthetics are assured on the 31,000 square-foot property by the 320 palm trees which were planted around the perimeter. This spacious property can have up to three more building pads for homes or guest homes and could be subdivided. At just $1,800,000, this luxury Costa Rican beach retreat is a true investment in the tranquility and enjoyment of life.
