Casa Canopy — A Jungle Sanctuary at Playa Chiquita
Playa Chiquita, Puerto Viejo, Limón — 24.5 hectares — 3 beds, 2 baths — USD 1,499,000
Tucked into one of the highest ridges at Playa Chiquita, Casa Canopy is more than just a home — it’s an immersive experience in one of the largest remaining tracts of primary rainforest on the Caribbean coast. With 243,746 m² (24.5 ha) of pristine forest enveloping the property, this estate offers rare scale, privacy, and ecological significance.
Why this is no ordinary listing
Primary rainforest at your doorstep. Unlike developments cleared for views or access, this land is dominated by ancient native forest — something increasingly scarce along this coast. Every slope, every ravine, every path is rich with mature tree species, dense understory, vines, and the full chorus of tropical life.
A living ecosystem. You’ll wake to howler monkeys, birdsong, butterflies, and the whisper of leaves in the wind — the forest is not just a backdrop, it is the heart of the property.
Ecological legacy. Because so little forest remains undeveloped along the coast, this property represents one of the last chances to own a contiguous, undisturbed block of habitat. It’s not just land, it’s conservation, stewardship, and legacy.
Harmonious architecture. The home is handcrafted, designed to integrate with its environment rather than dominate it. Large windows, open-air living, natural finishes — it feels like a forest dwelling, not a luxury shell within it.
Privacy and seclusion. Deep in the forest yet only minutes from the beaches and services of Puerto Viejo, this property offers solitude without isolation.

Invitation to the right buyer
This is not for someone seeking a cookie-cutter beach house or a landscaped “jungle garden.” This is for someone who sees land as life — someone who wants to own not just a structure, but a sanctuary; someone who values conservation, quiet, and the profound presence of nature.
If your vision includes waking up to the forest canopy, walking trails beneath ancient trees, and a home that listens to the rhythms of the jungle, Casa Canopy awaits.
