Location: Hojancha, Costa Rica
Discover The Refuge, a unique ecological residential community nestled in the serene hills surrounding Hojancha, Guanacaste, in the heart of the Nicoya Peninsula Blue Zone. Comprised of thirteen spacious lots ranging from 5,000 square meters up to 2.5 hectares, this sanctuary offers a perfect blend of nature, livability, and sustainability.
Each lot features views of the surrounding mountains and countryside, with select parcels showcasing beautiful vistas of the Gulf of Nicoya. The community is anchored by a protected forest reserve spanning 3 hectares, where a clear mountain stream flows, embodying the area’s natural tranquility.
Residents benefit from connections to the public electricity grid and clean water supplied by the Costa Rica Water Institute (AyA), as well as access to fast, dependable internet. The cool, wooded environment is home to an abundance of birds and wildlife, preserved forever through a conservation easement. This easement balances freedom for owners in designing their lots and homes with a commitment to maintaining the peaceful, forested ambiance. Sustainable building materials, water conservation and reuse, and landscaping with native plants are encouraged, while some activities that could compromise conservation and property values are prohibited.
Convenience meets nature with excellent access: just 10 minutes by well-maintained roads to the charming town of Hojancha, 25 minutes to Nicoya’s modern regional public hospital, and 90 minutes from Liberia’s international airport. The beautiful Pacific beaches of Samara and Puerto Carrillo are an hour away. Also nearby is Barra Honda National Park and the Montealto Natural Reserve, among Guanacaste’s most attractive protected areas.
The Refuge offers an extraordinary opportunity to live harmoniously with nature while enjoying modern amenities and easy access to key locations.
