Perched on the first hills above Playa Coyote, Casa Mariposa is a truly exceptional property offering breathtaking 180-degree ocean views, complete privacy, and the feeling of being completely immersed in nature.
Located in a small hillside community where each home enjoys generous space and privacy, you can appreciate the peace of the surroundings while still having neighbors nearby. Deep jungle surrounds the property, creating a spectacular natural setting where wildlife, birds, monkeys, and butterflies are part of everyday life.
Built in 2024, this beautifully designed home sits on a 6,800 m² property and offers 220 m² of thoughtfully planned living space. The modern pavilion-style layout is divided into two separate wings, connected by the heart of the home—an impressive infinity pool overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
The left wing features two spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms. One of the highlights is the outdoor bathtub, perfectly positioned to enjoy the incredible ocean view while soaking under the open sky.
The right wing offers a bright and open living area with a fully equipped kitchen, flowing onto a covered terrace where indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly. From here, you overlook the lush tropical gardens, filled with an incredible variety of butterflies that inspired the name Casa Mariposa.
A rooftop terrace provides another special place to enjoy the property. With very little light pollution in the area, the night sky is unforgettable, making it the perfect spot for stargazing.
The home has been finished to a very high standard and is being sold beautifully furnished. Every room has been carefully designed, with quality materials and tasteful details that give the property its unique character.
A circular gravel driveway leads to the main entrance, creating an elegant courtyard feeling as the gardens wrap around the front of the home, softening its modern architecture.
From sunrise to the spectacular Pacific sunsets, every moment here feels special.
The beach is only 5 minutes away, although a 4x4 vehicle is recommended to access the property.
The Playa Coyote area is still one of Costa Rica's hidden gems. Development has only recently begun, making this an excellent opportunity to invest before the area reaches its full potential. Despite its peaceful atmosphere, you're only about one hour from Playa Carrillo and one hour from Santa Teresa, following the beautiful Pacific coastline.
Whether you're looking for a private residence, a luxury vacation home, or a unique investment in one of Costa Rica's most promising coastal areas, Casa Mariposa is a property that truly stands apart.
