Description:
Star Mountain – 222-Acre Mountain Estate Bordering Cabo Blanco National Park
This is by far the largest premium property available on the Nicoya Peninsula. Spanning 222 acres (89 hectares), this rare estate sits in the lush mountains of Mal País and forms a contiguous stretch of forest with Costa Rica’s oldest nature reserve, Cabo Blanco National Park. The land is a harmonious mosaic of jungle, rolling hills, mountain streams, and ocean-view plateaus.
An existing and fully operational eco-lodge, Star Mountain Jungle Lodge, is located on the property. With four guest rooms and a guest house, the lodge has recently undergone a complete six-month renovation, preserving its rustic charm while upgrading infrastructure, including fiber. Optic internet. It’s one of the region’s oldest hospitality operations and is compliant and income-generating.
Strategically planted Ylang Ylang trees release their scent at night, and the only sounds you’ll hear are birdsong and howler monkeys. The property’s biodiversity has even attracted the attention of Animal Planet, who filmed wildlife footage here.
