Monkey House / Walking Distance to the Beach Dominicalito Bay

Property overview

Monkey House is a 444 m² dual-dwelling property in Dominicalito, one of the South Pacific's most in-demand beach villages. The layout is built for both comfortable full-time living and consistent rental income, and the surrounding land pulls in the wildlife that gives the house its name.

The main residence has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a living room, and a kitchen, kept comfortable by 3 air conditioning units. A large covered outdoor living area extends the interior into the garden, giving residents an all-weather space for meals, entertaining, or afternoon downtime in the shade. Behind the main house sits an independent cabin-style guest house with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, and its own kitchen — a self-contained second unit that works equally well for hosting family or listing on the short-term rental market.

The back of the lot has been left as a conservation area, and it is one of the property's defining features. Fruit trees on the parcel include rambutan, water apple, coconut, lemon, sugar cane, and more, giving the household a rotating supply of tropical produce through the year. The zone attracts frequent visits from monkeys and a wide variety of birds, so the daily soundtrack is jungle rather than street noise. This gives the property real privacy without pushing it out of walking distance to town amenities.

The location strikes a balance that is hard to find at this price. It is a 10-minute walk to Dominicalito beach and Poza Azul Waterfall, and a short drive to Marino Ballena National Park, home to the region's whale-watching and marine reserve. Dominical, Uvita, and the coastal highway are all within easy reach.

An added convenience: the sale includes a 2022 Toyota Hilux 4x4 Extra-Cab, which handles the mix of paved highway and back-road driving typical of the Southern Zone and removes the need for a separate vehicle purchase after closing.

Between the dual dwellings, mature fruit-tree conservation lot, walk-to-beach access, and the included 4x4, this is a versatile property for buyers seeking lifestyle, rental income, and a working connection to nature in a rapidly growing coastal region.
