Building Cost Of A Luxury Cabin In Costa Rica
Ойын-сауық
I am answering the most common question I got when I posted a super cut of this build on Instagram which was how much did it cost. The build was done is the southern Pacific zone of Costa Rica at the start of 2023.

How about the price of the land? Did I miss that?

I didn't include that because it varies wildly. I also purchased this lot along with many other lots as a package deal. Each lot has different value because there is ocean view and lot size to consider. But I paid just one bulk price so it's hard to say. Its like if you paid $10 for an apple, a juice, coffee, milk and a can of beans and someone was like, how much was the apple?

@@SashaJuliardD You would look at the receipt and it would tell you. Multiple lots would have had dollar figures to each, it can't be hard to give a ballpark figure on cost of land. Given where I think this is, I would guess in the realm of 110k. Unless what you built on here was sub-divided after or one of several structures on the same plot... given the fact this is a rental.

Hi Sasha - well done! I strongly encourage you to add horizontal concrete "beams" in the ground that tie into the concrete pilings supporting your house. I used a similar construction method in similar terrain and each corner of my house is subsiding at different rates. This causes racking which puts great stress on the structure. Another thing to consider on your next build is ensuring the upper part of the house does not come into physical contact with the concrete bodega structure below. By building on pilings, it is easier to protect your house from termites and ants because regular visual inspection is a snap. When you have a concrete structure (bodega, bath house) contacting a structure on pilings, you make it difficult to inspect for ants and termites. And it becomes far more difficult to stop them once they find your house.

Hi Sasha, I love your house and vibe. Can I ask how much land that you have and the approximate town or location? I’m very interested, as I may be looking to relocate from USA in 2024/2025! Thanks ❤

Was thinking the same thing when I saw the concrete footings. Should be continuous. Was also thinking that he could have opted for materials to prevent termites. Well said.

@@jodymooney255 Hey there, well I used to have several lots spread out over about 5.5 hectares. I have sold about 2.5 hectares already and have plans for the rest. It is near Uvita on the South Pacific coast :)
Super cool you were willing to be transparent on actual costs. Incredible build! Excited to see the full build video
Best video breakdown ever. Simple and perfect.
Awesome build. Absolutely lot of these videos on KZread but I absolutely love how you breakdown the cost succinctly and in a quick video. SUBSCRIBED!
I appreciate you sharing, and I find this to be inspirational. I can see that the location is comparable to mine in Kuching, Sarawak. No matter how much it costs to build the entire Cabit from the ground up, including the cost of the land... Because different places have different costs, it will vary in every way. Thank you once more for sharing this video, though. Bravo! 👍👍💯
Amazing build and it honestly seems so doable! Giving us diy vanlifers hope that we might be able to "settle down" in multiple places one day. Can't wait for the step by step.
Loved the video. Man on a mission! Simple but also elegant home. You all did a good job on constructing it.
The vegetation is soooo important. Nicely done. Cross ventilation is often forgotten about in the tropics.

Beautiful cabin... I was sure I had seen those views and that cabin somewhere, and it turns out we live very close by. Great job.
I'm so glad I found your channel! I'm contemplating doing the same in Bali! I can't wait to see what you've done there, too! 🙌🏼✨️❤️
Great video and thanks for the upfront breakdown of costs. I'm working on remodels on my house in Denver, CO and have already surpassed your total construction cost. Food for thought....I'd like to see more details on your electrical and plumbing.
Congratulations on the beautiful cabin. Your hard work was totally worth it. Hope u post the video of the other construction. In the meantime, enjoy your views & mornings from your amazing deck.
Thats a beautiful house - inspiring design and great use of materials. Congratulations.
Love the build, simple and strong.
great project. very interested in the build video and would love to see the walkthrough of it finished. all of the quick views shown in this video makes me want to see more!!!
this video is so well made, love it!
Super informative and creative. Look foward to seeing more.
Thank you for this video! I am hoping to build my vacation home in Cocles Beach area soon and this was inspiring!
This is awesome. Thank you for posting this.
Wildly good … best I’ve seen after 7 years of watching KZread vids too!
This was really informative! You probably have the cost in a separate video for the land but could you share it here, too? Thanks!

Loved this video. Thanks for the transparency. Inspiring! But I have on question: I did not hear you speak to plumbing.... I saw a sink and a toilet (I'm assuming some sort of shower too). I assume there must be a septic system? Maybe rain collection and filtering? What did that end up costing? Or are you living without water / wastewater disposal?
Looks gorgeous! Costa Rica is also less criminal from the rest of the South America as i have heard, so should be safer.
Beautiful place!!!

Really awesome! And congrats to that! It’s truly amazing! And great to hear it’s 2 houses coming 2024 😁 question: HOW to get started? How do I get the land, make a bid for the land, own the land? Is there some agency you use for that?
@SashaJuliardD

Thanks :) Getting land is similar to anywhere else. You can own in your own name and there are plenty of realtor sites that will have listings. CR doesn't have an MLS so there isn't one central database for all listings but each regions realtors will know all the listings. I would recommend going with a local because A) they might now of more that are unlisted anywhere and B) supporting locals
hey congratulations on your project and its implementation. it’s really successful. what do you do for the septic tank? Is it included in the cost? and is your house ventilated? are you going to put in air conditioning?
Awesome place.

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!
In my country you don't need a permit to build house like that (up to 40m2). You just send project to local authoritys. However it has to be out of city/town lines and not taller than 5.5 meters. But...cool house. Love it. Just finished my 40m2 house.
Great video and beautiful house! I’d love to hear about how you found the property/land and the process to purchase it. Also any idea what kind of costs you’ll expect in terms of ongoing cost? (Land tax or similar?!)
Love this! Currently researching options in central/South America. Amazing views. Curious how you picked the country and location. Via agent?
Lot prices in Costa Rica vary wildly, there are too many factors involved for there to ever be a standard price! Hey Sasha, I’m in Ojochal where are you? (Roughly😉)
