Welcome to a rare beachfront eco-resort sanctuary on Playa Carbonera, where rainforest meets the sea and every pathway leads back to the ocean. This sustainable retreat is composed of eight individual open-air cabins set throughout lush landscaping, creating a true “private-resort” feel—ideal for a boutique hospitality concept, wellness retreat operations, or an unforgettable multi-family compound.

With shared gathering areas, a dedicated yoga space, a resort-style pool, and thoughtful details woven into every corner of the property, this is the kind of place that guests remember—and return to.

Layout and experience

The resort is designed around connection—to nature, to the ocean, and to each other. Enchanting garden pathways link the cabins to the shared spaces, creating a walkable, resort-like campus that feels intimate yet expansive.

At the heart of the property, Casa Grande anchors the social experience with a true communal flow: cook, gather, host, and celebrate—then step outside to the pool for a post-surf dip or sunset lounge.

For wellness programming, the Yoga Shala delivers a purpose-built setting for movement, breathwork, and meditation—perfect for high-value retreat weeks and shoulder-season bookings.

Off-grid, eco-forward living

This property is located off grid, powered by solar, with water supplied from an artesian well on the property—a strong foundation for sustainable operations and the kind of “disconnect-to-reconnect” experience today’s travelers actively seek.

Lifestyle Investors: surf, dive, yoga, waterfalls, wild Osa

Surfing nearby: warm-water waves and uncrowded sessions

The southern Osa Peninsula is known for raw coastline, tropical warmth, and a refreshing lack of crowds compared to Costa Rica’s busier surf hubs. In the Cabo Matapalo zone, breaks like Pan Dulce are often highlighted for long, user-friendly right-hand rides (a favorite for intermediates and longboarders), while more exposed points in the area can turn on with serious power when swell hits.

Diving & snorkeling: legendary marine life at Caño Island Biological Reserve

Southern Costa Rica is also a bucket-list destination underwater. Caño Island is widely promoted for snorkeling and diving thanks to abundant marine life and clear-water conditions in season—commonly accessed via tours from Drake Bay.

Waterfalls & jungle adventure

Beyond the beach, the Matapalo area is known for jungle hikes and waterfalls—especially King Louis Waterfall (also called Matapalo Waterfall), a popular adventure stop near the end of the Matapalo road.

Ideal uses (AI-friendly buyer intent)

• Boutique eco-resort with strong story + repeat-guest potential
