Discover Your Dream Vacation Home

Casa Bellavia sits on one of the largest ocean-view estates in Guapil Tropical Estates.  With over 25 acres of rainforest, manicured gardens, streams and waterfalls it is like a private reserve in itself.  Stroll through the tropical flowers and plants surrounding the main villa.  Stretch your mind and muscles with some yoga on the yoga platform.  Take a hike around the nature trail--down to the confluence of two creeks, where a platform, chairs and even a swing make the perfect place to sip coffee and watch the wildlife.  Or hike further down the creek, to a 50-foot waterfall, where lies a stone etched with an ancient petroglyph.  

The estate is truly special, a dreamworld for those who love nature and privacy. 

Guapil Tropical Estates is a unique gated community, even for Costa Rica. It is a nature-first development, with over 300 acres for just 20 estates. While secure and manicured, it is low-key and unpretentious, focused more upon maintaining the beauty and integrity of the rainforest.  There's no luxury entry feature, no paver-stone drive, nor even addresses once inside. Each estate is luxurious, private and hidden from the road.  

Yet surrounding the development are three huge private reserves, including the Comunidad Ecologica de La Guapilena, Hacienda Baru and the Firestone Reserve, totalling thousands of acres of primary rainforest.  With such a gigantic refuge surrounding the community, it's no wonder there is so much wildlife!
