5Bed Single Family Homes For Sale

Own the tip of the ridge with spectacular views!

Positioned high in the coveted Escaleras mountains above Dominical, within the exclusive gated community of Las Terazzes, this exceptional property occupies the tip of a finger ridge, Osa Vistas captures the essence of the true Costa Rica experience. Offering a rare combination of security, privacy, biodiversity, and breathtaking natural beauty, the estate presents an opportunity seldom found in today’s market. The property also encompasses an important wildlife corridor connecting two valleys, an increasingly rare feature in this developing region.

Positioned at the end of the road, encompassing the tip of a finger ridge out into the Pacific, where the rainforest canopy opens to expansive vistas, the property commands one of the most extraordinary whitewater view corridors in the Southern Zone including the Osa Peninsula. The name "Osa Vistas" says it all. Here, nature unfolds in every direction, delivering four remarkable panoramas that define the property’s character and daily experience.

The first is the sunset view at the northeastern most part of the property, where the Pacific horizon during sunset as the sun drops down to the ocean transforms into a canvas of amber, gold, and rose. From the pool terrace and main living spaces, there is often an echo sunset to the south and up over the mountains with orange, pink and purple clouds.

From the secluded porch of the jungle casita you can look down the steep slope to see waves crashing on the rocky coastline and be rocked to sleep nightly by the sounds of the ocean waves.

But the most magnificent view is looking south from the patio and out the windows in the main house and the other casita, Casa Vista. From the 850 ft elevation you can see whitewater beach views all the way down the coastline of the many coves...all the way to the Osa Pennisula. Directly below is a bird’s eye view of the famous Whale’s Tail sandbar formation at the Marino Ballena National Park. During whale migration season, the ocean beyond becomes a living spectacle as humpback whales surface and breach in the distance — a rare privilege visible from the comfort of your own porch.

Completing the panorama are the mountain views to the southeast, where rolling jungle ridges stretch toward the cloud forests of Costa Rica’s interior. Morning mist drifts through the valleys while toucans and scarlet macaws glide above the canopy, creating an ever-changing landscape that feels both wild and peaceful.

As described in the property overview, this remarkable parcel sits within one of Escaleras’ most biodiverse corridors, where rainforest and cloud forest ecosystems converge, creating a thriving sanctuary for wildlife and birdlife. Howler and capachin monkeys are regular visitors along with slothes, agoutis, cutamundi, anteaters and countless number of tropical bird species. Toucans nest in a tree opening just off the front of the jungle casit
