Boutique Jungle River Resort with Pool, Restaurant & Cabinas in Ojochal
The river gives this property its soul — unhurried, natural, and deeply connected to the land around it.
There is a particular kind of quiet that only a river produces — unhurried, consistent, and deeply connected to the land around it. At this newly built jungle retreat in Ojochal, that quiet is built into the foundation of the property. The river is not simply a backdrop. It is the experience.
Set within one of Costa Rica’s most sought-after communities on the Southern Pacific coast, Jungle River Resort offers the rare combination of natural beauty, commercial usability, and newly built infrastructure. The property operates on a human scale — intimate enough to deliver a genuinely personal guest experience, yet substantial enough to support a serious hospitality, lifestyle, or investment vision.
With approximately 694 m² of total built area, the property was designed on a generous scale, blending interior living, guest accommodations, hospitality space, and expansive outdoor entertainment areas. Approximately 195 m² is devoted to the pool and exterior tiled terrace, anchored by a large 6 m by 13 m pool with an additional entry stair section. The result is a retreat that lives far beyond its walls, with the pool terrace functioning as a true outdoor living room in the tropics.
The outdoor area is one of the defining features of the property. Guests can move naturally from the restaurant and bar to the pool terrace, from shaded seating areas to the sound of the nearby river, and from private cabinas into a setting that feels more like a boutique jungle resort than a standard rental property. The scale of the pool and surrounding tiled entertainment area gives the property a strong resort feel while still preserving the intimacy that makes small hospitality properties in Costa Rica so desirable.
The commercial heart of the property includes four well-appointed cabinas, a restaurant and bar, and a dedicated riverside relaxation area. The design is cohesive and newly built, meaning there is no sense of deferred maintenance or pieced-together expansion. Everything feels intentional, clean, and ready for an owner who understands the value of combining guest experience with operational simplicity.
The restaurant and bar anchor the social life of the property. In Ojochal — a town known for its food culture, international community, and easy access to the Costa Ballena coastline — a well-run dining concept carries real local value. Guests do not need to leave the property to feel the rhythm of Costa Rica. They can dine, swim, relax by the river, and experience the jungle atmosphere all within one private setting.
The location adds another layer of appeal. Ojochal is close to some of the Southern Pacific’s most recognizable beaches, including Playa Tortuga, Playa Ventanas, Playa Piñuela, and the beaches of Marino Ballena National Park near Uvita.
