Casa Ballena, Potrero
Gorgeous New 3-Bd. house + 2-Bd. Casita with Pool

Completed in January 2021, Casa Ballena in Potrero is a huge new property with a 3-bedroom main house, a 2-bedroom casita and a swimming pool. Five minutes from Playa Penca, it’s the perfect vacation home for a large family or group of friends looking to explore Costa Rica’s Gold Coast.

Interiors are immaculate and airy, featuring sleek modern furniture, big TVs, air conditioning and artwork dominated by whales, starfish, turtles and Buddhas. The living room and kitchen feature a large sliding-glass door that leads directly to the pool.

The beautiful, fully equipped kitchen in the main house is a chef’s dream. The casita also features a smaller but well-appointed kitchenette.

The five bedrooms have big, plush beds, many with TVs, and there’s a kid’s room too. Three elegantly designed bathrooms feature glass shower doors, intricate tilework and all-new fixtures.

Outside, a covered terrace with outdoor dining furniture overlooks the spacious pool. There’s covered parking, and the entire property is fenced for privacy and security.

Please note that you have to cross a creek to reach Casa Ballena, and in the rainy season you may need an SUV and/or 4-wheel drive to do so.  Special Places of Costa Rica cannot be held responsible if you are unable to cross the river or if you get stuck in it.
