At the heart of the plan is a commitment to conservation. A protected private reserve ensures that wildlife thrives and residents enjoy a sanctuary of peace. The community's design emphasizes low-impact development, maintaining the integrity of the rainforest while offering modern infrastructure and convenience.
Waterfall access: A spectacular 90-meter (295 ft) waterfall within the community, a private natural wonder.
Beach proximity: Playa Hermosa is less than 5 minutes from the entrance, ensuring effortless access to world-class surfing and coastal leisure.
Adventure nearby: Zip-lining, hiking, horseback riding, and national parks enrich the lifestyle.
Community spirit: Designed to foster meaningful connections among residents while preserving individual privacy.
Hermosa Falls Estates is envisioned as a model of sustainable development. There will be no high-rise buildings, and construction guidelines encourage eco-friendly practices in energy, water, and resource use. The master plan enhances wildlife habitat, ensuring that macaws, toucans, monkeys, and butterflies remain part of daily life.
The story of Hermosa Falls Estates begins decades ago, when the property was first used as a traditional cattle farm. In the 1960s, it was acquired by the current family owners, who continued ranching operations across its expansive lands.
By the 1990s, the family's vision began to evolve. Inspired by a passion for conservation, the next generation initiated a reforestation project that transformed the landscape. Over 30,000 trees were planted including teak, pochote, melina, cocobolo, and ron ron among others. Restoring biodiversity and creating a thriving natural reserve.
With this renewed commitment to the land, the family also embraced its natural wonders: the 90‑meter waterfall hidden within the forest, sweeping ocean and valley views, and the serenity of untouched nature. Coupled with the area’s accessibility to world‑class surfing, fine dining, golf, and adventure tourism, a vision emerged to share this remarkable place with the world.
From that vision, Hermosa Falls Estates was born. A legacy project that honors the land’s history while opening its doors to a new generation of residents and investors. Today, it stands as a community where conservation, luxury, and lifestyle converge, offering a rare opportunity to live in harmony with Costa Rica’s Central Pacific paradise.
