Imagine Costa Rica 500 years ago. After times of great hardship at sea the intrepid sailor is intrigued by its beckoning shores . Coconut palms leaning by wind and weight.  This green jungle, this unknown territory, fought hard to preserve its virgin charms and challenges. It was an inhospitable place practically devoid of humans.

A leisurely stroll could have easily ended in disease or even death. Venomous snakes, unpredictable peccaris and hungry felines, spiders, scorpions, or simply the raging waters of a mountain stream or lightning put to test any who ventured ashore. The land was alluring for those whose faith guided their perilous journey across one of the narrowest spots on the isthmus where Pacific and Atlantic meet.

The land bridge between the two American continents was a nexus for a great diversity of species. Their migrations north and south brought changes to both the fauna and the flora on each side and provided indigenous of a stunning variety. The isthmus was and remains a region with a marvelous array of exotic plants and animals.

Costa Rica today still harbors this great genetic diversity, but has evolved into a more hospitable paradise, enriched with a enjoyably civilized blend of the modern Latin way of life, its unique folklore, its legacies and wonders. Now imagine being taken to a place where your senses come alive again as intensely as they would have 500 years ago; but add to this Costa Rica ’s modern amenities and dazzling cultural legacy.

 Costa Rica today not only presents you all her natural charms, her unspoiled beaches and her thickly forested mountains, but also offers a rainbow of modern life and culture: highly developed and treasured performing arts, such as theatre and dance; a thriving IT and computer industry; cutting-edge R&D centers for hi-tech space programs; well-developed social and health services; and a precious intangible respect for and dedication to human life, aspirations and achievements, both great and small.

Even with modernization, Costa Rica ’s unspoiled natural treasures surround you.. In its mountainous inland terrain, perched high above the Pacific Ocean, caressing the pristine Pacific coast of Guanacaste’s magical Nicoya Peninsula, lies hidden a region and sanctuary of incredible natural beauty, a landscape of peace and delight and an unparalleled wildlife haven. In the wonderful perpetual spring climate of the Hills of Los Angeles, where coffee grows luxuriantly amid a bounty of fruits, lies this captivating natural retreat, a refuge for tranquility and pure Zen moments. A stunning symbol of itself, it rises above the land as a lone turret guarding the eternal beauty of the hills and dales.

The jaguar and panther are frequent visitors, shy and elusive, like their smaller counterparts, the margay and the ocelot. Coatis, chattering in the brush. Wild pigs bathing in the mud sniffing and rooting in nature’s lush, live carpet.

In this realm of natural wonder stands a stately colonial-style mansion reminiscent of a Mediterranean fortress, a perfect and private sanctuary, away from the hustle and bustle of the cities, offering awesome panoramic vistas over miles and miles of coastline, colorful sunsets in absolute serenity, where the only sounds you will hear are the wings of the raptors sailing above.

This awesome property can be reached by a well-maintained though little-travelled country road offering spectacular scenery or simply by helicopter using a landing pad next to the fortress.

This main structure was intentionally left as a grey structure for the discriminating buyer to realize his or her own finishing ideas of color and style.

There are hiking trails on the land, a property road leading trough the estate to many more home sites as well as to the beautiful guest house perched on a cliff overlooking the peninsular coastline with sunset over the Pacific.

All structures are serviced by the estate’s own crystal-clear spring water brought to the very top by a high-tech water system. Underground electricity will be furnished as well as a fully-automatic entrance gate system with intercom.

The estate is so secluded and tranquil that it would serve well as an upscale yoga or anti-stress retreat or a health clinic.

Any type of annex we can additionally build for you to suit your very personal needs and requirements in size and style.
