Prime Development Land in Tarcoles

Prime Development Land in Tarcoles – Positioned directly across from the world-renowned Carara National Park, this 162-acre (65-hectare) elevated parcel is one of the last major ocean-view development opportunities on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific coast. With 207 meters of prime frontage on the Pacific Coast Highway (Ruta 34) and a second public road at the rear, the property offers unmatched visibility, access, and long-term development flexibility.
This is a true shovel-ready investment—perfect for master-planned communities, eco-luxury residential projects, hospitality, or mixed-use tourism developments.

Property Highlights:

• 162 acres of pristine, elevated terrain with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Tárcoles River, and Carara National Park
• 73 confirmed ocean-view lots in current master plan (167 total lots)
• With updated planning → expandable to 300+ lots
• Property already cleared, with graveled internal roads and partial drainage installed
• Two legally registered deep wells producing a combined 9 liters/second, approved by AYA & ASADA Lagunillas
• Main water distribution lines already installed across the property
• Four existing homes, three requiring only cosmetic updates (≈$30k), offering immediate sales or rental potential of $1.1M+
• Historic exemption for sewer treatment plant requirement (renewable)
• Previous approvals from CFIA, INVU, INS, Ministry of Health, and AYA

Unbeatable Location & Connectivity:

• 9 minutes to the beach
• 20 minutes to Los Sueños Resort, Marina & Marriott Hotel
• 45 minutes to San José via Caldera Highway
• 18 km from the future Orotina International Airport
Surrounded by iconic attractions like Carara National Park, the famous Crocodile Bridge, and daily scarlet macaw flyovers, the area draws millions of tourists each year—boosting both short-term absorption and long-term appreciation.

Investment Upside & Development Potential:

• Current plan: 167 lots
• With minor updates: 300+ lots
• Seller’s projected exit value: $19M+ within 3–5 years
• Near-term upside: ≈$1M profit in the first 12–14 months from early lot sales or existing home resales
• Clean title, all concessions and water rights in place—a rarity for large parcels
This region is rapidly transitioning into one of Costa Rica’s most in-demand coastal development corridors. With infrastructure expansion, rising tourism, and land scarcity driving values upward, this parcel is positioned perfectly in the path of growth.

Why This Property Stands Out
Few properties combine:

• Massive size
• Ocean and national park views
• Highway frontage
• Legal water supply
• Existing approvals
• Immediate development readiness
Large, well-prepared coastal parcels with this level of infrastructure and due diligence are exceptionally rare—especially directly across from a protected national park.
