Join us on a journey to redefine the future, one rooted in ecological harmony, conservation, and the profound beauty of Finca Bellavista.The FBV property was originally acquired to prevent the mountain from being harvested for timber. Today it is a sanctuary for life and a testament to ecological innovation. As a convergence zone between the Talamanca Highlands to the East, and the Osa Peninsula to the West, it plays a pivotal role within a wildlife migratory corridor, making it a critical piece in the puzzle of preserving our planet's biodiversity. This wildlife corridor encompasses tens of thousands of acres and forms an unprecedented land bridge between La Amistad National Park to the East and the Corcovado and Piedras Blancas National Parks, the Terraba Sierpe National Wetlands, and the Golfo Dulce Forest Reserve and the Golfito National Wildlife Refuge to the West.This incredible project was created not only to demonstrate a model of sustainable living but also to provide job opportunities and to advance scientific studies in a socio-economically under-privileged and under-studied area within one of the most biologically-diverse places on Earth, according to National Geographic.For 15 years, Finca Bellavista thrived as a unique and sought-after destination for ecologically-minded travelers from around the world, hosting several thousand visitors annually. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all guest services were closed when Costa Rica temporarily closed its borders. Today it remains a fully-entitled sustainable community with full environmental permitting in place and retreat center blessed with miles of crystal-clear, spring-fed river frontage and countless waterfalls and natural swimming holes.An Exclusive Opportunity Awaits: This unique offering is now available for acquisition for less than half of the investment made into the project since its inception.
