Property Description
Casa Esencia del Mar is a turnkey luxury estate for sale in Playa Hermosa, Guanacaste, combining panoramic Pacific views with an established full-service vacation rental operation. Set at 1,200 ft above sea level, described as Playa Hermosa's highest elevation, it offers 360° views and an exceptional setting for private ownership or boutique hospitality.
Built in 2023 on a 2,098 m² titled property, the furnished residence offers more than 14,000 sq. ft. of living space across three levels. Seven en-suite bedrooms, six with ocean-view balconies, are complemented by seven full and four half bathrooms. An elevator serves all three levels, and whole-home water filtration adds everyday convenience.
The interiors support both residential living and group hospitality. A Great Room, formal dining room and large American-style kitchen with a separate chef's galley create spaces for gathering and catered dining. A game room and wine closet enhance the guest experience, while a business center accommodates remote work and retreat planning.
Outdoor living centers on a saltwater mineral infinity pool with beach-style entry and a swim-up bar. A covered terrace with a grill and bar provides another setting for entertaining. Above, the 6,000+ sq. ft. Sky Deck includes the Sky Sanctuary, with seating for 50 guests, offering space for weddings, corporate retreats and private events against the coastal panorama.
Operating since October 2023, Casa Esencia del Mar has a dedicated staff, including a private chef and hospitality team. The property is offered as a fully staffed residence, allowing a buyer to explore continuing an existing service model. In 2026, a stay at the estate was included among only four travel destinations in the gift bags offered to nominees for the 98th Academy Awards, adding international visibility to its hospitality profile.
Playa Hermosa Beach is approximately five minutes away by car, and Liberia International Airport is approximately 25 minutes away. Nearby destinations include the five-star resorts of the Papagayo Peninsula, Playas del Coco, and the beaches and marinas of Guanacaste's Gold Coast. Rincón de la Vieja and regional adventure and eco-tourism attractions expand the possibilities for guest experiences.
The estate offers scope for luxury rentals, group stays, weddings, corporate retreats and wellness programs. Buyers may explore retaining the full-service villa operation or adapting a boutique hospitality or event concept, subject to applicable approvals. It also presents an option for a private estate with rental potential.
Offered at $7,750,000, Casa Esencia del Mar brings together substantial living space, ocean views and an operating hospitality model. Request further information or arrange a private showing.
