Perched on the pristine coastline in southern Nicaragua, overlooking the mountains of Costa Rica and the Papagayo Bay in the distance, Casa Grillo is a haven of relaxation and sophistication. Located in the highly sought after, equestrian-inspired gated community of Big Sky Ranch in Escamequita, this custom, luxury home is surrounded by jungle mountains and mature tropical landscaping, offering maximum privacy in a tranquil setting. It has 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms and is fully powered by solar energy so you can enjoy the benefits of living life completely off grid.

The property is situated at the top of the development with the best views of the ocean—and the entrance is lined with four large palm trees that make a grand statement upon arrival. You enter the property on a paved driveway providing ample parking space. Step down and find yourself at a large stone entryway, leading you into the living room with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. The main living area includes a large L-shaped sofa and custom bamboo wall, connected to a custom high-end luxury kitchen with Viking appliances, outdoor dining room and BBQ kitchen area that seats 8-10 people. The custom bamboo focal wall adds to the unique character and design of this one of a kind home—combining modern lines with earthy elements for the ultimate laid-back luxury style. Also in the main area, there are two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, a laundry room, a half bathroom, an outdoor shower, a pool terrace lounge area and a sun lounger area. Enjoy a large grass yard on all sides of the property—perfect for your furry friends or for children to play— or to simply lay a blanket down for epic stargazing. A third bedroom with an ensuite bathroom has its own private entrance on the side of the house and currently flexes as a guest room and the perfect work from home space with extra privacy and a gorgeous garden view.

A luxurious spa-like stone bathroom with an outdoor freestanding bathtub for two (perfect for a romantic full moon bath under the stars!) is a must-see for design lovers. An outdoor stone shower with vines growing up the wall, a large custom bamboo built in cabinet, Kohler purity faucets and shower head and walk-in custom teak closet makes the first master suite feel like you’re living in a boutique hotel.

The second master suite also features a bathtub with custom bamboo sliding door, a built in closet, and a large ocean view with sliding glass doors opening up to its very own shaded pool-side lounge area complete with custom sofa and Sunbrella cushions. It’s the perfect spot for a morning coffee and your new favorite book.

This home was built to withstand the tropical weather elements. The exterior walls are finished with an imported mineral-based stucco for minimal maintenance and the walls were made of solid block and steel. The indoor/outdoor architectural design encourages a deeper connection with your natural surroundings and maximizes airflow throughout the home.

Enjoy the mature landscaping, tall cacti and blooming bougainvillea around every corner. The property is 1.2 acres and has over 30 fruit trees planted. Enjoy fresh bananas from your very own trees! This one-of-a-kind property is truly stunning and homes like these are rare in this area. It is an exceptional opportunity to own a home that is five star living in a laid-back ranch-style setting—surrounded by tropical birds, monkeys, jungle, hot-pink sunsets, deserted beaches and EPIC surf breaks.
