Casa Horizonte sits high in Bella Vista Estates, the gated enclave in the Escaleras hills above Playa Dominical. Built in 2020 by Ben Morris of Paradise Homes, and placed on the ridge to take the year-round sunsets rather than simply the view.

One of Six

The number worth knowing here is six. That is how many homes are planned for this enclave in total — not sold, planned. Most gated communities on this coast are sold on the promise of privacy and then fill in around you over a decade. Six is a number that cannot really do that. It also means the neighbors are a known and finite quantity, which at this end of the market is worth more than an amenity list.

The House

3,143 square feet, arranged around floor-to-ceiling glass and foldaway doors, with high ceilings throughout. The main living space opens along its length to a covered outdoor lounge, so the room and the terrace behave as one space. The kitchen is a full chef’s fit-out and opens into the living and dining rather than being closed off.

Three bedrooms, each en-suite, and each with its own private patio — a detail that matters more in a three-bedroom house than a larger one, because it gives everyone somewhere to be alone without leaving the building. Sold fully furnished.

The Primary Suite

A deep soaking tub and an open-air rainfall shower, both with the ocean and the rainforest in front of them rather than a wall. It is the sort of thing that photographs well and, unusually, is just as good in practice.

The Pool

Infinity-edge, set so it reads as floating above the canopy. Toucans and howlers come through the trees below it, and in season you can watch the whale migration from the water — Marino Ballena is down the hill.

Bella Vista Estates

A boutique gated community on the Escaleras ridge, three minutes from the highway and five from the beach — a combination that is genuinely rare here, since most properties this secluded trade away easy access to get it. You can read more about it on my communities page.

There is a video tour below. Reach out and I’ll arrange a showing.
