Perched at 1,250 feet above sea level within the gated Hills of Portalon community, this impressive three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home delivers some of the most spectacular ocean views in the region. Set on 2.03 acres of lush tropical land in Portalon, it is situated between Quepos and Dominical — close enough to everything, yet genuinely removed from it all. Whether you’re looking for a full-time residence, a private holiday retreat, or a high-yielding rental investment, this turnkey property makes a compelling case on all three fronts.

The property enjoys an enviable central position on Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast. Quepos is just 20 minutes away, Dominical 10 minutes, and Uvita around 25 minutes — putting restaurants, markets, services and some of the country’s most celebrated surf beaches within easy reach. The Costanera Highway is only 8 minutes from the property, making onward travel straightforward in any direction. Nearby beaches including Playa Linda and Playa Matapalo are just a short drive away, offering the kind of unhurried coastal lifestyle that draws people to this part of Costa Rica in the first place.

From its elevated vantage point, the home looks out across a panorama that stretches from the Osa Peninsula all the way to Manuel Antonio. The Pacific Ocean fills the horizon, and as the day draws to a close, the sunsets from the terrace are nothing short of extraordinary — the coastline below catching the last of the light as waves break along the shore. This is the kind of view that shapes how you live in a home, and it’s present from almost every room.

The two-storey home is fully furnished and move-in ready, finished to a high standard throughout with hardwood flooring, tinted glass doors and windows, high ceilings, and quality fittings at every turn. The open-plan kitchen and living area forms the heart of the home, with premium appliances, granite countertops, and a central island making it as practical as it is attractive. Tinted glass and excellent natural airflow keep the interior cool and comfortable, supplemented by air conditioning in all bedrooms. A laundry room, half bath, and a welcoming entrance staircase with landscaped access complete the picture.

All three bedrooms are generously proportioned and each comes with its own ensuite bathroom, a private terrace, and large sliding glass doors that open to the views and the breeze. The master suite includes a walk-in closet, while the additional bedrooms feature custom hardwood storage. The result is a home where every room feels like a considered space rather than an afterthought.

The outdoor areas are designed for effortless entertaining and everyday enjoyment. A spacious terrace takes full advantage of the panoramic views, while an infinity-edge swimming pool with sun ledge provides the perfect place to spend a slow afternoon. A built-in BBQ area sits adjacent to the kitchen for seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and an outdoor shower rounds out the facilities. The surrounding 2.03 acres are planted with mature fruit trees and flowering tropical vegetation, creating a lush, private environment that also attracts an impressive array of wildlife — monkeys, sloths, toucans, scarlet macaws, and hummingbirds are all regular visitors.

The property offers a level of flexibility that sets it apart from many homes in this price bracket. An independent one-bedroom casita near the entrance is ideal for guests, a caretaker, or as a separate rental unit. The main home can equally be rented as a single three-bedroom property or occupied by owners while the additional spaces generate income. An attached two-car garage with workshop adds further practicality, while a greenhouse and animal enclosures offer the option of small-scale hobby farming. There is also space on the plot to build an additional home or rental cabinas, making this a property with genuine room to grow.
