Who we are

Small footprint, endless horizon

Pura Vida Tiny Homes is a family project in Nosara, Costa Rica. We design and build compact, sustainable homes made for tropical living — composting systems, filtered well water, smart-home comfort, and natural materials that breathe with the coast.

Minutes from Playa Guiones, one of the world's most consistent surf breaks, our homes sit where the jungle meets the ocean air. Wake up to howler monkeys, walk to the waves, and live simply and comfortably in one of the most beautiful locations in Costa Rica.
