   - LOCATION:

The natural land forms of the area, as well as the close proximity to protected forest reserves and maritime zones, have created a situation in which developable areas are limited. This ensures that the character of the surrounding rainforest and community will be preserved in perpetuity, and that real estate within the region will continue to be in high demand.

   - LIFESTYLE:

Finished end of 2009, Casa Big Sur boasts over 6,500 s.f. of luxurious living space with panoramic rainforest and ocean views from every room. Life at Casa Big Sur provides abundant opportunities to enjoy the natural environment that Costa Rica is famous for. During the summer months of December through June, limited rainfall and balmy temperatures are perfect for all day excursions or relaxing by the infinity edge pool. The morning and evening rains of the green season, July through November, bring a freshness and clarity to the air which are perfect for enjoying the spectacular sunsets either from the sand at Dominical Beach or from the comfort of your own home away from home at Casa Big Sur.

   - COMMUNITY:

Casa Big Sur is the first luxury home located within this exclusive niche community consisting of three lots nestled into the hills of Escaleras, also known as the Beverly Hills of Costa Rica. Situated to maximize the breathtaking views that abound within the Southern Zone, Casa Big Sur is surrounded by lush landscaping and beautiful gardens, and is protected by a guardhouse that provides a safe and secure environment for friends and family to gather and spend quality time together.


Casa Big Sur is nestled amongst some of the best Costa Rica Beach Attractions.
Ballena Beach, Uvita Beach, Hermosa Beach, Tortuga Beach, Dominical Beach and Manuel Antonio National Park and Ballena National Marine Park. Created on Feb. 6, 1989, Ballena National Marine Park became the first marine reserve in Latin America whose sole purpose was to protect important natural marine habitats. Among the protected habitats are sandy and rocky beaches, estuaries, mangroves, cliffs, rocky reefs, coral reefs and the odd geological formation known as the Tombolo de Punta Uvita. Each of these habitats is important for the reproduction of the diverse species of the Osa Peninsula. The total protected area consists of 5,375 marine acres and 110 acres of land, all possessing tremendous biological importance. Humpback whales have been visiting Costa Rica’s Pacific coast for thousands of years. During the months of August, September and October, whales arrive from the southern hemisphere. From December through April, they arrive from the northern hemisphere.
