Imagine waking up surrounded by fresh air, vibrant nature, and the calls of toucans, macaws, and wild birds passing through daily. This 1,208 m² lot in San Rafael de Peñas Blancas offers the perfect balance between the peace of a natural setting and the high profitability of Costa Rica’s premier tourism sector.
Although Peñas Blancas administratively belongs to the canton of San Ramón, geographically it is located just 15 minutes from downtown La Fortuna and the Arenal Volcano. Unlike more distant districts such as Monterrey or Aguas Zarcas, Peñas Blancas is part of La Fortuna's direct tourism corridor. This strategic location makes it an ideal choice for developing a vacation rental project on platforms like Airbnb or Booking, a boutique country hotel, or a retirement residence—benefiting from the steady flow of national and international visitors seeking lodging in the area.
The property sits on a public road and features large mature trees that provide natural shade and cool breezes. Additionally, it benefits from flexible land use permits that allow up to 75% construction coverage and a height limit of up to 12 meters (3 to 4 levels), giving complete freedom to design anything from independent villas to a spacious retreat home.
