Located between Sierpe and Drake Bay in Costa Rica’s Southern Pacific region, Sarangundí is a rare 247-acre conservation property offering exceptional potential for an eco-lodge, wellness retreat, boutique hospitality project, sportfishing destination, or private jungle sanctuary near Corcovado National Park.
Protected by the same family for more than 65 years, the property preserves approximately 90 hectares of primary rainforest alongside 10 hectares of open and regenerating land ideal for low-impact development. Surrounded by more than 1,000 hectares of protected forest, the property offers extraordinary privacy, immersion in nature, and long-term conservation value.
The beautiful Sarangundí creek flows year-round through the property, creating a stunning natural centerpiece. Near the Sierpe River, the property features natural terraces ideal for building, with breathtaking views over the mangrove forest, river, and surrounding mountains. In addition, access through the Sierpe River system allows for the possibility of constructing a private dock and reaching the property conveniently by boat from Sierpe — a unique advantage for hospitality and tourism projects. The nearby ocean access also makes the property highly attractive for sportfishing concepts and nature-based tourism.
The property is home to incredible biodiversity, including tapirs, pumas, peccaries, monkeys, scarlet macaws, toucans, and countless tropical bird species, with internal trails already in place for exploring the rainforest.
Strategically located near Drake Bay, Corcovado National Park, and the regional airport, the property combines accessibility with deep natural immersion. An additional future value driver is the planned Palmar Sur International Airport, expected around 2030, which would place the property approximately 45 minutes from direct international access.
Land use regulations currently allow for tourism-oriented projects such as eco-lodges, boutique hotels, jungle villas, wellness retreats, yoga platforms, and nature experiences.
