Bamboo Property for Sale Near Playa Ballena | Prime Costa Ballena Development Opportunity

Property overview

On 0.7 acres (2,751 m²) in Bahía Ballena, just 300 meters from Playa Ballena and 50 meters from the Costanera Highway, stands one of the most architecturally distinctive properties on Costa Rica's Southern Pacific coast. Casa Bambú is a 560 m² two-level structure built in 2023, where expansive concrete floor plates meet elegant bamboo framing to create a striking organic aesthetic. A continuous row of skylights runs the full length of the green roof, filling the interior with natural light throughout the day, while the building appears to float above a lush valley — delivering a rare sense of openness and connection to the surrounding rainforest canopy.

The location is precisely centered between Uvita and Ojochal, each just 8 km away, giving residents and guests effortless access to restaurants, services, and the region's top expat and tourism infrastructure while remaining fully immersed in tropical nature. A jungle stream borders the property and empties into the sands of Playa Ballena just steps away. The Costanera Highway sits at the front gate via a smooth, gently rising public road, and the property also borders a public road — making access seamless from any direction.

For developers, operators, or visionary buyers, this property offers boundless potential for both residential and commercial development. The prime Costa Ballena address, the striking bamboo architecture, and the proximity to both the highway and the beach combine to create an exceptional canvas for a boutique hotel, wellness retreat, restaurant, or luxury residence.
