About Hacienda Tenorio

Dating back in history to 1812, Hacienda Tenorio is one of the oldest and largest haciendas in Costa Rica. Currently, it is a working cattle ranch and consists of approximately 11,000 acres (44 square kilometers) with 2,400 of those acres used for teakwood regrowth.

This piece of land is unique in that it reaches the slopes of Tenorio National Park and Tenorio Volcano. This hacienda is bound on the east and west by two significant rivers. The property currently has governmentally approved water concessions up to 99,000,000 liters of water per day.

In the middle of the hacienda is a major paved road with a frontage of 19 kilometers, and it has public services.

What Comes With the Property

The idea is to sell the entire operation (cattle, horses, machinery). The employees and management will go with the sale, if desired. There is approximately 2,000 head of cattle and 150 horses.

Facilities included are the main house, a villa, houses for employees, a swimming pool, and agricultural machinery (tractor D6B and D6C, seven grasshoppers).

Location & Accessibility

Located about 45 minutes from the Liberia International Airport with primary airline service to the USA and other locations. Beaches and the Pacific Ocean are approximately 1.5 hours distance.

Nearby Activities

In a very short distance from Hacienda Tenorio, you can experience the beautiful province of Guanacaste with its stunning beaches, incredible landscapes, and golden sunlight. Guanacaste draws thousands of visitors each year and offers excellent surfing and snorkeling, along with many more activities such as fishing, rafting, two volcano hikes and three national parks nearby.

Hacienda Tenorio is nearby many exciting places, such as Rio Celeste, Arenal Volcano, Lake Arenal, Tilarán, and many more. Have a relaxing and thrilling experience, including dipping into hot spring waters and braving the canopy tours, while enjoying and learning about the country's rich biodiversity, culture, and excellent eco-tourism potential.

Investment & Environmental Potential

This land is strategic in its environmental potential due to its location and current situation. All suggested potential falls under the category of conservation, maintaining and rewilding this land.

Carbon Absorption:
Having two river systems flowing through the property would allow the hacienda to become a reforestation project, which could lease out sections to carbon credit organizations.

Alternative Energy:
Being strategically located next to Tenorio Volcano makes this a prime spot for possible geothermal research and development. Composed of 11,000 acres, mostly cleared and flat — solar research is another great option. Located in the drier state of Guanacaste, receiving more than 300 sunny days per year.
