Description

Exceptional 600-Acre Rainforest Property: Treehouse Community, Conservation Hub, and Eco-Tourism Destination in Osa In a world where sustainability is essential, Finca Bellavista stands as a beacon of hope. Facing challenges like climate change and biodiversity loss, this 600-acre rainforest property offers a profound solution. Historical Significance and Biodiversity Corridor Originally acquired to prevent timber harvesting, Finca Bellavista is now a sanctuary for life and ecological innovation. It lies within a crucial wildlife migratory corridor connecting La Amistad National Park with Corcovado and Piedras Blancas National Parks, the Terraba Sierpe National Wetlands, the Golfo Dulce Forest Reserve, and the Golfito National Wildlife Refuge. A Hub for Conservation and Sustainable Living Created to demonstrate sustainable living, provide jobs, and advance scientific studies, Finca Bellavista is in one of the most biologically diverse places on Earth, according to National Geographic. For 15 years, it was a destination for eco-minded travelers, hosting several thousand visitors annually. Due to COVID-19, guest services were closed. Today, it remains a sustainable community with environmental permits, featuring miles of crystal-clear river frontage, waterfalls, and natural swimming holes. A Unique Opportunity This property is now available for less than half of the investment made since its inception. It offers a rare chance for a conservation-minded buyer to rejuvenate an internationally acclaimed rainforest community and conservation center. Property Highlights 1.
