Own the beach.
Outright.
Five titled beachfront lots on Playa Hermosa — a rare piece of Costa Rica's Pacific coast you hold in your own name, for good.
Titled,
not leased.
Nearly all of this coastline is leased from the government through concessions. These five lots are the exception — fee-simple land you own outright, foreign buyers included. 2 of the 5 remain.
A home shaped
to the site.
Build when you're ready, with your architect or ours. One team carries it from first sketch to finished house — so you enjoy the result, not the logistics.
A life at
the water's edge.
The surf a short walk away, the beach long and quiet, San José about ninety minutes back. Close enough to reach, far enough to feel away.
Five lots.
Two still available.
Five titled beachfront lots on Playa Hermosa, each fronting the sand directly and turned west into the afternoon light. Three are now in private hands; Lots 1 and 2 remain available.

Beachfront you can
actually own
Most of Costa Rica's coast can only be leased from the government through concessions, and a foreigner can hold no more than 49% of one. Hermosa Real is the exception — land held in fee simple, recorded in your name, with nothing to renew and no foreign cap.
- No lease, no concession. The land is yours; nothing to renew.
- Full ownership. Up to 100 percent, with no foreign cap.
- Clean paperwork. Recorded title and survey, delivered free and clear.
A home, handled end to end
The land is yours to build on whenever you choose — or hand it to one team that designs, builds, and delivers the finished house. No gaps between architect, contractor, and you; you enjoy the result, not the logistics.
Coastal-modern, built for this beach
Relaxed, light-filled homes designed for the site — living that opens to the outdoors, private pools, and the main rooms turned to the water. Three to six bedrooms, single or two levels, with an optional detached casita.

A coast that's been loved for decades
Playa Hermosa runs long and quiet just south of Jacó, on Costa Rica's central Pacific coast — a world-class wave that has drawn surfers for a generation, and a shoreline that stays calm and uncrowded the rest of the day.
A clear path to owning it outright
Titled beachfront, owned outright and delivered free and clear — foreign buyers included. Here's how it works, with us beside you at every step.
Inquire & select
We share lot details, pricing, and availability, and you choose the lot that fits.
Reserve
A reservation agreement holds your lot while due diligence is completed.
Due diligence
Your attorney reviews recorded title and survey, and the lot is confirmed free and clear.
Close & build
Ownership registers in your name. If you want a home, our team designs and builds it, from plans through move-in.
Scarce by design
Titled beachfront is a small fraction of the Costa Rican coast, and only five titled, fee-simple lots front the sand here — three are already sold. The destination is established, the wave has drawn surfers and competition for decades, and foreign buyers hold 100% titled ownership in a stable, dollar-friendly market.
Questions buyers ask first
Do I need Costa Rican residency to buy here?
No. Foreign buyers of titled property have the same ownership rights as citizens, and you do not need residency to buy. Hermosa Real lots are titled, fee-simple property, owned outright.
What does titled, fee-simple mean — and why does it matter?
You own the land outright, recorded in your name, the same as owning a home in the US, Canada, or Europe. Most Costa Rican beachfront can only be leased through government concessions capped at 49% for foreigners, so titled beachfront is rare and holds its value.
Is the land free of debts, claims, or litigation?
Yes. Every lot is delivered free and clear, with recorded title and survey available for your attorney to review before you commit to anything.
Can I purchase in a company, trust, or foundation?
Yes — an individual name, a corporation, a trust, or a foundation. Our team and your attorney help you structure ownership to fit your goals.
Can buying a lot help me qualify for residency?
A property purchase of $150,000 or more lets you apply for Costa Rican residency. Ownership can be divided through company shares, each above $150,000, so more than one person can qualify from a single property.
Is financing available?
Financing is available to foreign and national buyers, typically in the range of 50 to 65 percent loan-to-value. Ask us for current lenders and terms.
Can I rent my home?
Yes. The area supports strong short-term vacation and long-term rental demand, and we can refer a trusted local property manager.
How do I get there?
Playa Hermosa sits just south of Jacó on the central Pacific coast, about 90 minutes by road from Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) in San José.
