We own the land. We engineer the platform. You build the home.

Coyote Reserve is a residential land reserve of privately owned building platforms, set within protected green corridors in Playa Venao.

We are the landowner, not a developer. We prepare fully engineered, legally serviced building platforms and sell them to private owners. The home itself stays with its owner, who designs and builds it their own way.

Positioned between two established developments

The parcel sits between two established master planned developments, close to their planned schools, clinics, and residences. It is titled, carries a sea view, and lies near the road locally known as Camino de los Coyotes.

Survey plan of the upper reserve, about 5 ha, with the green pocket divided into lots G1 and G2 around an extension of the 12.80 m road
Upper reserve, about 5 ha. The July 2026 survey plan, with the green pocket (2,846.05 m²) shown as two homesites, G1 and G2, reached by extending the 12.80 m road to a turning head. The 29 surveyed lots are now 24 standard homesites of 1,000 m²; the large area on the left stays green reserve.

Lower reserve, Hectare 1. An estate of about 3,000 m² with two building platforms, T:33 (840 m²) and T:34 (460 m²), available as one estate or as two lots.
Plan of lower reserve Hectare 3 showing lots 12, 10 and 13 in the western block and lots 6, 4 and 5 in the eastern block facing the road
Lower reserve, Hectare 3. Six homesites: lots 12, 10 and 13 side by side in the western block, and lots 6, 4 and 5 in the eastern block with road frontage. From the surveyor's working drawing, indicative until the official plan is issued.

Lots H1-1 and H1-2 can also be bought together as one estate of about 3,000 m² with both building platforms.

Areas are approximate until the final survey. The upper reserve layout of 24 standard and 2 green pocket homesites replaces the earlier 29 lot survey plan, and an updated survey drawing is pending. Hectare 3 lot numbers follow the surveyor's working drawing.

A living reserve, not a cleared lot grid

The property is threaded with small parks and walking trails, a natural waterfall, and dedicated seating zones, so residents live inside the landscape rather than beside a cleared subdivision.

  • Green corridors

    Parks and trails woven throughout the property, connecting platforms rather than isolating them behind cleared lots.

  • Natural waterfall

    An existing cascade on the property is preserved and framed as a shared natural feature for residents.

  • Seating zones

    Multiple rest and gathering areas distributed across the reserve, encouraging residents to use the shared land.

  • Reserve, not buildings

    Only platforms are developed. The surrounding forest and terrain stay as they are, which is where the name comes from.

How a platform gets built

We publish this level of technical detail deliberately, because it is the difference between a graded lot and an engineered platform with a documented geotechnical, compaction, and code record.

  1. Site assessment

    A topographic and geotechnical soil survey is carried out across each platform footprint before any earthwork begins, establishing bearing capacity, drainage patterns, and groundwater behaviour, so the compaction plan is engineered to that lot's specific soil conditions rather than a generic standard.

  2. Compaction and grading

    Cut and fill grading brings each platform to design elevation, followed by mechanical compaction in controlled lifts using vibratory rollers and heavy graders. Moisture content and density are checked at each lift against the bearing standard required for residential construction, across the full footprint rather than spot checked at the edges.

  3. Legal and code review

    Each finished platform is verified against local zoning and building code, and cross checked against its geotechnical report, before it is offered for sale, so the buyer and their architect start from a lot whose zoning and code review is already on record.

  4. Infrastructure tie in

    Water, electricity, and road access are brought to the platform edge as part of the same phase of works, so a platform is delivered ready to build on rather than graded land left waiting on services.

Delivered with a specialised platform contractor

Coyote Reserve is delivered in partnership with an established construction company specialised specifically in platform works rather than general building. Bringing in a partner with scale, a real fleet, and a track record is what lets Coyote Reserve commit to a delivery timeline.

  • Platform specialists

    Core expertise is grading and building platforms, the exact scope this project needs.

  • Infrastructure works

    Water, electricity, and road access delivered as part of the same partnership.

  • Code compliance

    Every platform engineered to meet legal and structural code requirements before sale.

  • Established track record

    A large, well established firm rather than a subcontractor assembled for one job.

A standard already proven at scale

These photographs are from a large scale land compaction and platform grading project completed by the same crew and fleet that will deliver Coyote Reserve Phase 1.

The path to Phase 1 sellout

  1. Land secured

    Acquired at a low per m² basis relative to serviced lot resale prices in the area.

  2. Infrastructure works

    Water, electricity, road access, and a community park delivered as part of Phase 1, engineered and installed ahead of platform sales.

  3. Platforms delivered

    34 homesites engineered and serviced with our specialised construction partner, code verified before sale.

  4. Full sellout

    Phase 1 is expected to fully sell out within approximately 5 years, informing the timing of Phase 2.
