The location

Less than 1 kilometer (1/2 mile) from the charming village of Potrero, and the white sand beaches of Playa Penca, "Vista Penca" commands an unprecedented ocean view location along the coast. A five-minute drive south will take you to all of the services of the new Marina Flamingo, currently under construction, including slips and boating services, dry docks, restaurants, and shops. Just north of the property the 1200-acre seaside village of Las Catalinas, with beach access, restaurants, bike, and ocean rentals; and more than 50 kilometers of mountain biking and hiking, with trailhead access five minutes away. World-class recreation including golf, sailing, diving, and sportfishing, fine dining, supermarkets, medical services and international private schools are close by. The popular surfing town of Tamarindo is 30 minutes south, and the Liberia international airport can be reached in under one hour.

The property

Vista Penca encompasses 52,857 sq meters (13 acres) and is a visible landmark from sea below. As the most prominent hilltop, closest to the beach, it delivers front row ocean-views, magical sunsets, and multi-hued afterglow night after night. During the day, the boats darting across the bay, diving pelicans and breaching whales, will provide mindful entertainment.

There are more than 20 private building sites carefully laid out throughout and the owners have taken special care to preserve the indigenous trees, lining the access roads and building sites, enhancing privacy and a lush tropical setting for much of the year. As a result, Vista Penca is a haven for tropical birds and wild animals, including howler monkeys, coatis, and flocks of many different species of parrots; all of which make their home on the land.

The land is ideal for a private estate or an enclave of luxury homes option for the new owner. Municipal water and electricity are available, and extensive public road frontage allows for simplified segregation opti
