$385,000 USD | 2 Bed | 2.5 Bath | 210 m² Lot | Jacó Gardens, South Jaco
If you've been searching for a gated community in Jacó small enough to actually know your neighbors, and close enough to the sand that "beach day" means walking, not driving — this is the one we point families toward first.
Jacó Gardens is a boutique community of just nine homes, tucked into South Jaco, the quieter, more residential stretch of town we've always steered families and second-home buyers toward. Low density means low traffic, a real sense of privacy, and kids who can safely ride bikes to the neighbor's door — something increasingly hard to find in Jacó's more built-up condo corridors.
This particular home comes fully furnished, appliances included, so it's genuinely move-in or rent-ready from day one. Inside, you'll find two bedrooms and three bathrooms across two stories, split-unit air conditioning throughout, and a layout designed for real family living, not just a vacation pied-à-terre.
Outside is where this property earns its price. Your own private swimming pool. Private, gated electric-access parking with one dedicated spot. And the feature that consistently sells this community faster than almost anything else we list: private community access directly onto South Jaco beach — specifically the stretch locals and visiting surf schools alike consider the best swimming and learn-to-surf water in all of Jacó.
HOA is $475/month, which covers the shared beach access, gated entry, and common-area upkeep for a community this size — a modest number for what it protects.
Our take, after 30 years of selling this stretch of coast: homes inside small, gated, beach-access communities like Jacó Gardens rarely sit on the market long, because there simply aren't many of them. Nine homes means nine chances — and when one comes up, it tends to move.
