Modern Mountain View Villa With Infinity Pool And Rooftop Deck In Ostional, Guanacaste, Costa Rica

$599,000 | 2 Bed | 3 Bath | 2,902 m² Lot (0.7 Acres) | Mountain & Jungle Views | Gated Community

Some properties announce themselves. Joya Escondida asks you to find it. Tucked into the hills of Ostional inside the Black Beauty condominium community, this modern two-bedroom residence sits quietly on 0.7 acres of jungle and mountain views, constant tropical breezes, and the kind of privacy that most homes in Guanacaste promise but few actually deliver. The name translates to ”hidden gem,” and it earns it.

Completed in 2022, the home is set on a 2,902 m² lot within a gated community with controlled access. The architecture is clean and modern, built around openness, natural light, and airflow rather than excess. High ceilings and full-height pocketing glass doors allow the main living spaces to open completely onto the outdoor terrace and infinity pool, turning the boundary between inside and outside into something you stop noticing after the first morning.

Both bedrooms are positioned for maximum privacy and views, each with an ensuite bathroom featuring a rain shower, air conditioning, and a private balcony overlooking the jungle and surrounding mountains. A third common bathroom serves the main living areas. The kitchen and living room are laid out in an open-concept format that feels functional and connected, easy to live in daily and easy to maintain. This is a home designed for actual living, not for impressing people who aren’t there.

The terrace is the heart of the property. Wide, open, and oriented toward the mountains, it’s the space where mornings start and evenings end. The infinity pool sits at the edge, and above it, a rooftop deck lounge adds a second elevated level for sunsets, stargazing, and the cooler breezes that come with this elevation. Covered parking and a laundry room round out the practical details.

Infrastructure includes high-speed fiber-optic internet, a backup battery and UPS system for essential services, and a water sanitizing and filtration system. At this price point, that level of technical readiness is uncommon in the area and signals a home that was built to be lived in full-time, not just visited.

At $599,000, Joya Escondida sits at one of the most accessible price points for a modern, move-in ready home inside a gated community on the Nicoya Peninsula. The 0.7-acre lot provides generous space and breathing room, and the property’s manageable scale makes it practical for a couple, a small family, or a buyer looking for a low-maintenance second home with long-term appreciation in a market that continues to grow.

The property is located 10 minutes from Playa San Juanillo, 5 minutes to the Ostional National Wildlife Refuge, 20 minutes from Playa Marbella, and 25 minutes from Nosara, with its restaurants, yoga studios, surf culture, and established international community. Liberia International Airport, with direct flights from major U. S. and Canadian cities, is approximately 2 to 2.5 hours by car. Costa Rica guarantees full property ownership rights for foreign buyers, a constitutional provision since 1870.

Two bedrooms. Three bathrooms. An infinity pool in the hills. And a home that proves you don’t need to spend two million dollars to live well in Guanacaste.
