Casa Melina , Guanacaste

In the quiet hills of Santa Marta, Casa Melina rests among trees and mountain light -- a contemporary home that blends modern comfort with Costa Rica's natural rhythm. Completed in 2025, this single-level residence spans 164 m² (1,765 ft²) on a 1,191 m² (0.29-acre) lot framed by jungle and distant ridgelines.

A calm, airy atmosphere begins at the entry, where high ceilings, polished teak, and smooth floors open into an open-concept living space. The kitchen anchors the home with custom cabinetry and quartz counters, while large glass doors invite light, breeze, and views of the green valley below.

The wraparound porch and private pool extend the living space outdoors -- perfect for coffee at sunrise, yoga, or quiet afternoons surrounded by birdsong and mountain air.

Three bedrooms provide comfort and privacy. The primary suite features hill views and a spa-like bath with a rainfall shower, while guest rooms offer the same tranquil simplicity. Air conditioning, cross ventilation, and soft natural light make each space effortlessly comfortable.

Built with exceptional craftsmanship, Casa Melina unites teak, steel, concrete, and glass in a design that feels both strong and serene, enhanced by modern essentials like security cameras and ample parking.

Located just minutes from Playa Sámara and Playa Carrillo, the home offers easy access to the coast while preserving the quiet rhythm of mountain life.

Casa Melina embodies modern pura vida -- a place where design meets nature, and life unfolds in space, silence, and light.

Buyers also have the option to purchase the adjoining 1,000 m² lot for added privacy, expansion, or a guest home. This additional parcel is available for $79,000, offering more space to enjoy the tranquil mountain setting.
