Dos Monitos

Description:

Dos Monitos is a rare luxury compound located just a short walk from the iconic surf and golden shoreline of Playa Grande, on Costa Rica’s northern Pacific coast. Set on approximately 7,000 m² (1.73 acres) of land, this twelve-bedroom estate is spread across four distinct villas, offering exceptional privacy, scale, and architectural presence.

At the heart of the property is a striking six-bedroom main residence with panoramic ocean views and open-concept living spaces designed for seamless indoor–outdoor flow. Expansive terraces, generous entertaining areas, and elevated sightlines make the main home equally suited for quiet retreat or hosting on a grand scale.

Surrounding the main residence are three independent guest villas, each thoughtfully positioned for privacy and comfort. One villa features a single bedroom and serves as an intimate hideaway, while the second offers two bedrooms ideal for friends or small families. The third and largest guest villa includes three bedrooms, garden views, and a more secluded layout, creating a private sanctuary within the estate. Each guest villa includes its own swimming pool and a unique configuration, allowing flexibility for personal use or rental strategy.

In total, Dos Monitos offers 12 bedrooms and 12.5 bathrooms across approximately 1,384 m² (14,900 sq ft) of construction. Additional features include multiple outdoor lounge areas, a gated entrance, caretaker’s casita, service quarters, and secure parking. The estate was designed by LSD Architecture, a renowned Costa Rican firm celebrated for its innovative tropical modernist design and seamless integration with the surrounding landscape.

Tucked away on the peaceful Calle Pots and Bowls, the property lies within the protected Las Baulas Marine National Park, just minutes from tide pools, surf breaks, and the spectacular sunsets that define Playa Grande. The location offers a rare balance of natural preservation and accessibility. Playa Grande provides essential services including a supermarket, medical clinic, and local shops, while nearby Tamarindo—reachable by boat or a short drive—adds a vibrant mix of dining, nightlife, and boutiques. Liberia International Airport and Tamarindo’s local airstrip ensure convenient access year-round.

Whether envisioned as a multigenerational family estate, a wellness retreat, or a high-end rental investment, Dos Monitos delivers an exceptional combination of privacy, architectural integrity, and coastal lifestyle—an offering rarely found on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast.
