70 Acres of Panoramic Oceanview Luxury in Escaleras, Uvita

Monkey Ranch is an exclusive 70-acre (approximately 30-hectare) rainforest estate perched at 335 meters above sea level in the prestigious Escaleras mountains of Uvita. From this privileged elevation, the property commands breathtaking panoramic views stretching from the lush mountains down to the Pacific Ocean — delivering year-round sunsets and refreshing sea breezes.

The Main Residence

The primary home is designed for both privacy and grandeur, offering expansive living spaces that seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor living.

At the heart of the home:
• Oversized master suites, thoughtfully positioned for privacy and views
• A spectacular lower-level master retreat featuring separate his-and-hers walk-in closets and generous spa-style proportions
• Floor-to-ceiling openings that frame sweeping mountain-to-ocean vistas

The outdoor living experience rivals a private resort:
• A resort-style infinity pool with natural rock features built into the design
• Expansive terraces ideal for entertaining or quiet sunset evenings
• Immersive jungle surroundings with complete privacy

Additionally, the main residence includes a brand-new independent apartment with ocean views, ideal for guests, staff, or rental income — offering flexibility without compromising privacy.

The Inn – 8 Bedrooms | Independent Access

Connected to the main residence via a striking hanging bridge, the estate expands into a beautifully remodeled 8-bedroom inn.

Key features:
• Recently renovated interiors
• Independent suites ideal for boutique hospitality or retreats
• Separate entrance directly from the public road
• Complete operational independence from the main residence

This thoughtful layout allows the property to function as:
• A fully private estate
• A retreat center
• A boutique hotel operation
• Or a hybrid luxury residence + income-producing hospitality concept

Land & Expansion Potential

The 70 acres include:
• Four large ocean-view building sites
or
• The flexibility to create multiple luxury villa lots

All with water and electricity infrastructure already in place, significantly reducing development timelines and costs.

Natural features include:
• A 12-meter waterfall cascading into private natural pools
• Freshwater streams
• Spring-fed tilapia pond
• Mature fruit trees throughout the property
• Preserved rainforest trails and abundant wildlife

Location – Escaleras, Uvita

One of Costa Rica’s most desirable mountain corridors, Escaleras offers:
• Elevated ocean and jungle views
• Cooler mountain climate year-round
• Luxury homes and eco-conscious estates
• Minutes to Marino Ballena National Park and Uvita’s beaches
Monkey Ranch is not simply a property — it is a rare, large-scale ocean-view compound offering privacy, natural beauty, hospitality potential, and long-term investment upside in Costa Rica’s thriving South Pacific market.
