ignoring The wreckage of a wealthy man’s mansion can be found at Playa Jaco, Costa Rica. El Miro’s dream is now just its three stories of unfinished balconies, white pillars, magnificent staircases, and what would have been an opulent interior.

El Miro welcomes inquisitive hikers and urbex explorers with panoramic views. El Miro has a lot of graffiti, which, depending on how you look at the laborious work of graffiti artists, can either be beautiful or rude. You’ll need to hike on a route that begins beside the gas station on the Jaco highway to Quepos in order to reach El Miro.
