Luxury Estate in Escaleras- incredible ocean views 5.5 Acres

Property overview

A newly built 2024 estate positioned above the Pacific coastline in one of Costa Ballena's more exclusive locations. The parcel measures 22,247 m² (5.5 acres) of protected rainforest, and the property holds uninterrupted Pacific Ocean views while sitting less than five minutes from the coastal highway. That combination of seclusion and access is difficult to find at this elevation in the region.

Every primary living space in the home was designed around the ocean view, including the iconic Whale's Tail formation, the dramatic rocky coastline, and the sunset corridor. Floor-to-ceiling glass connects the interior directly to the outdoor terraces and pool, filling the residence with natural light and keeping the view continuous across all main living zones. The living room, gourmet kitchen, and infinity pool all face the ocean, creating a single unified atmosphere for daily living and hosting.

The estate is composed of two separate structures, laid out to maximize both privacy and flexibility.

Main residence: - 3 ocean-view bedrooms - 2 full bathrooms and 2 half bathrooms - Spacious open-concept living and dining areas - Chef's kitchen with panoramic ocean views - 48" refrigerator and 48" range - Full gas appliances - Two ice makers set up for entertaining

The primary suite carries a spacious walk-in closet, an elegant en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the ocean and the evening sunsets.

Guest house: - 2 additional ocean-view bedrooms - Private bathroom - Configured for guests or extended family

The home is finished with luxury materials, designer furnishings, and high-quality craftsmanship throughout.

Additional features: - Infinity pool overlooking the jungle canopy and ocean - Ocean-view gym and sauna - Fire pit lounge for outdoor gatherings - Backup generator - Water filtration systems - Gated access with enhanced privacy - Solid concrete construction built for tropical coastal conditions

The surrounding rainforest is protected land, which delivers full privacy with no visible neighbors and reliable wildlife activity across the property. Daily sightings include toucans, scarlet macaws, and monkeys moving through the canopy around the residence.

The estate also carries substantial expansion potential. The 5.5-acre footprint leaves space and infrastructure in place for additional bedrooms, guest casitas, wellness spaces, or entertainment structures, all while preserving the current view lines and the architectural balance of the existing residence. For a buyer thinking about phased development or a growing family compound, that flexibility is meaningful.

The combination of a 2024 build date, protected rainforest surroundings, two separate structures, full amenity depth, and five-minute highway access makes this one of the stronger Escaleras estate offerings currently available.
