A Peaceful Retreat Steps from the Beach in Authentic Cabuya
Set in the charming fishing village of Cabuya, right on the edge of the Cabo Blanco Reserve, this 360 m² home on a 11,590 m² lot offers a rare opportunity to live surrounded by nature in one of the most authentic corners of the Nicoya Peninsula — just minutes from Montezuma and Santa Teresa.
Casa Blanca was designed by Swiss architect Rico Reolon following Vaastu principles, aligning the structure with the earth′s natural compass. The result is a home that feels as intentional as it does effortless — with thick walls, large glass doors, and high-quality finishings that reflect a standard of construction rarely found at this price point on the peninsula.
The home features two bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, a spacious open-plan living and kitchen area, and a covered terrace that connects seamlessly to the garden. Natural light fills every corner of the house, amplified by the thoughtful orientation and the lush tropical surroundings.
The grounds are a world of their own — a mature, 11,590 m² food forest filled with mangoes, coconut, papaya, five types of banana, soursop, and dozens of other tropical species. It is a living, breathing garden that provides both beauty and abundance in equal measure. There is also plenty of flat, usable space to expand the current home or add additional structures on site.
Casa Blanca is part of a larger gated compound that includes another house and a swimming pool area. The compound is cared for by a beloved local family who have looked after the property for years and know every corner of it. Their presence brings both a sense of security and a genuine connection to the land and the community.
Through a private access path, just two minutes on foot, you arrive at the beach — quiet, uncrowded, and framed by the iconic Cabuya Island. World-class surf spots are just around the corner, and the vibrant towns of Montezuma and Santa Teresa are a short drive away.
Cabuya moves at its own pace. It is the kind of place that is becoming increasingly rare on the Nicoya Peninsula — authentic, unhurried, and deeply connected to nature. Casa Blanca captures that spirit completely.
This property stands out for its balance of build quality, natural beauty, location, and lifestyle.
