Bio Caribe: A Private Eco Village

Bio Caribe is a 125 hectare, approximately 306 acre, ecological residential development near Punta Uva and Puerto Viejo on Costa Rica’s Atlantic Coast. Conceived around sustainability and lower impact residential development, the property combines individually titled lots, protected forest, an off grid residential area, and an area connected to electricity. With properties ranging from 5,000 m² to 28,500 m², Bio Caribe offers substantial land within a development that has established building regulations and recommendations centered on sustainable construction.

The development is subdivided into 58 titled properties, with each individual lot registered at Costa Rica’s National Registry and current on municipal taxes. Bio Caribe is located outside the Gandoca Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge and is not part of the disputed Keköldi Indigenous Reserve.

Bio Caribe is organized into two residential areas. The southern section includes 36 properties connected to electricity, while the northern section consists of 22 properties designed for off grid living. Both sections are planned with electric entrance gates. A recreational area is also being developed in the southern section, where a community center and tennis court are currently under construction.

Each property requires its own well, with water typically found at approximately seven meters according to the development information provided. Fiber optic internet with speeds of up to 300 MB is available to all properties, with service starting at $55 per month. These infrastructure options allow owners to approach sustainable living according to the characteristics of their individual property and the section of the development they select.
