Tropical Estate with Private Waterfall Access and Ocean Views to Auction via Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions

Costa Rican masterpiece to auction in cooperation with Wijbrand Tuinstra of Costa Rica Sotheby’s International Realty

NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, July 28, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- One of the most spectacular tropical estates in Costa Rica’s South Pacific—a ten-acre sanctuary known as Casa Cascavita in Uvita—is headed to auction via Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions. Listed for US$11.5 million in cooperation with Wijbrand Tuinstra of Costa Rica Sotheby’s International Realty, the property combines lush rainforest privacy with elevated luxury and remarkable Pacific Ocean views. Bidding is set to open 21 August via the firm’s online marketplace, conciergeauctions.com, and will culminate live online on 28 August as part of the firm’s global sales series, featured alongside RM Sotheby's.

Tucked just minutes from the vibrant beach town of Uvita and the renowned Marino Ballena National Park, Casa Cascavita commands sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, including the iconic Whale’s Tail sandbar formation. The property encompasses over 16,000 square feet across a five-bedroom main residence including a two-bedroom independent apartment, and extensive staff quarters—all thoughtfully integrated into a verdant jungle landscape.

“Casa Cascavita represents true tropical elegance,” said Tina Wallace, Business Director at Concierge Auctions. “With stunning ocean vistas, exquisite craftsmanship, and total privacy, it offers a one-of-a-kind lifestyle. Our global auction platform creates the ideal environment to highlight that rare opportunity—maximizing exposure, simplifying the sale, and connecting with the right buyer. We’re looking forward to bringing such a singular property to market.”

At the heart of the estate lies a teak-clad main residence adorned with hand-carved Indonesian details, featuring five spacious ensuite bedrooms and indoor-outdoor living areas that open to panoramic ocean-view terraces. Culinary spaces are outfitted with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, while the outdoor kitchen includes a fire grill, pizza oven, and gas barbecue—ideal for entertaining amid the sights and sounds of the rainforest.

Nature plays a starring role at Casa Cascavita. A river winds through the estate, culminating in a magical 30-foot waterfall and crystalline blue swimming hole with a natural waterslide. Multiple staff residences—including two casitas and a studio apartment— provide exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or hospitality ventures.

Sustainability is central to the estate’s design, with features such as a micro-hydroelectric system, filtered spring water, and 24-hour battery backup. A granite infinity-edge pool, lush tropical gardens, and electric vehicle charging station complete the resort-style experience.

“This elegant retreat blends timeless sophistication with a tropical flair,” said Tuinstra of Costa Rica Sotheby’s International Realty. “Casa Cascavita offers a rare combination of nature’s splendor, meticulous design, and adaptable living, set within one of the most coveted areas of Costa Rica. It’s the ideal retreat for those who desire tranquility and refinement.”

Set within the biodiverse haven of Puntarenas Province, Uvita is a gateway to Costa Rica’s South Pacific coast. Known for its untouched beaches, jungle wildlife, and offshore whale migrations, the area offers adventure and tranquility in equal measure. Nearby Marino Ballena National Park provides opportunities for whale watching, snorkeling, and kayaking, while fine dining abounds at acclaimed restaurants such as Mi Amore, Aracari, and Los Laureles. From surfing in Dominical to hiking through rainforests teeming with sloths and toucans, the region is a magnet for those seeking an immersive and elevated lifestyle.
