Serene Jungle Home + Guest Cabin on 3 Acres and River

Property overview

On 3 private acres in the Ojochal area near Puerto Cortés, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath jungle estate delivers the kind of seclusion that feels earned—surrounded by lush rainforest, a year-round river with its own swimming hole, and a living landscape of pineapple, plantain, banana, cacao, mamon chino, breadfruit, and guanabana trees. The 185 m² main house offers two ensuite bedrooms, each with air conditioning, while the screened kitchen, dining, and common areas stay open to the jungle air.

The recently renovated kitchen centers on a large island with an adjacent pantry and dry room for extra storage. A spacious deck extends directly from the dining area, putting the river and forest canopy front and center for meals, gatherings, or quiet mornings. The design balances modern finishes with warm rustic character throughout.

A semi-attached guest cabin rounds out the property, offering a private bathroom and enough room to add a kitchenette—ready for visiting family or short-term rental income. A covered carport fits two vehicles, and a separate laundry area includes space for a second fridge or additional supplies. The hilled section of the property opens real possibilities for additional cabins or further development, while a second buildable area adds even more flexibility for investors or those planning to grow.
