Full Property Description
Welcome to Casa Cristal, a hidden jewel in the jungle offering the perfect blend of privacy, nature, and convenience in one of Costa Rica's most desirable destinations.
Located just 5 minutes from the thriving town of Uvita and only 10 minutes from the beautiful beaches of Costa Ballena, this charming property provides an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a peaceful tropical lifestyle while remaining close to modern amenities and world-class attractions.
Set on a generous 2,477 m² lot and surrounded by towering rainforest trees, Casa Cristal is designed for those who appreciate nature and tranquility. A beautiful natural, year-round creek borders and gently surrounds the property, creating a rare sense of privacy and an extraordinary connection with the surrounding rainforest. The soothing sounds of flowing water provide a peaceful soundtrack throughout the property, while the lush vegetation along the creek creates a naturally serene and secluded atmosphere. This pristine water feature also attracts an abundance of local wildlife, making the creek an integral part of the unique tropical experience that Casa Cristal offers.
The area is home to an incredible variety of wildlife, and it is common to encounter toucans, scarlet macaws, white-faced monkeys, howler monkeys, coatis, deer, iguanas, raccoons, wild pigs, and the spectacular Pavo Real throughout the property and surrounding forest.
The home itself offers approximately 200 m² of construction and features a spacious open-concept design with high ceilings and large windows that invite abundant natural light while framing beautiful jungle views from every room. The thoughtful floor plan includes two spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary suite features a private ensuite bathroom, while the guest bedroom benefits from its own independent exterior entrance, creating flexibility for guests or rental opportunities.
A large laundry room, workshop, and storage area add functionality and convenience, while the expansive covered terrace extends across the entire length of the home, creating an exceptional indoor-outdoor living experience perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying the surrounding natural environment.
One of the most unique features of Casa Cristal is the use of locally harvested Amarillón hardwood from the property itself, which was transformed into beautiful custom cabinetry throughout the home. This detail adds warmth, character, and authenticity rarely found in modern construction.
The land offers tremendous potential for future development. If desired, the property may be subdivided and includes up to three additional building sites suitable for guest cabins, vacation rentals, or additional residences. There is even enough harvestable wood remaining on the property to assist with future construction projects.
For buyers seeking additional amenities, a custom 3m x 4m swimming pool and surrounding deck can be added for approximately $20,000, significantly increasing both enjoyment and rental potential.
Beyond the property itself, owners enjoy access to some of Costa Rica's most spectacular attractions.

Playa Hermosa is known for its beautiful sandy beaches, surfing, and breathtaking sunsets. Additional nearby attractions include Nauyaca Waterfalls, sport fishing excursions, ATV adventures, horseback riding, zip-lining, and countless hiking opportunities through protected rainforest reserves.
Whether you are searching for a private residence, a vacation home, an income-producing rental property, or a boutique eco-tourism project, Casa Cristal offers a rare combination of natural beauty, development potential, and strategic location in the heart of Costa Rica's Southern Pacific region.
Offered at $290,000, Casa Cristal represents an outstanding opportunity to own your own piece of paradise surrounded by rainforest, wildlife, and the very best that Costa Ballena has to offer.
