Designed for privacy, nature, hospitality and slow living

Set on the hills of Zapallar, one of Chile’s most treasured coastal destinations, Olivo Santo Estate is a private country residence designed for those who seek beauty, privacy, nature, and understated luxury.

Surrounded by olive groves, native gardens, open lawns, and sweeping views toward the Pacific Ocean, the estate offers a rare sense of place: calm, generous, and deeply connected to the landscape. Its architecture combines rustic stone, terracotta roofs, warm timber interiors, and refined Mediterranean influences, creating an atmosphere that feels both elegant and effortless.

Olivo Santo is more than a house. It is a world of its own.

The estate includes expansive indoor and outdoor living areas, gardens, terraces, a swimming pool, tennis court, organic vegetable garden, walking paths, and quiet corners for rest, conversation, and contemplation. Every space has been conceived to enjoy the rhythm of the day — breakfast under the morning light, long lunches outdoors, sunset drinks overlooking the hills, and intimate evenings by the fire.

Located within reach of Zapallar, Cachagua, and the surrounding coastal villages, Olivo Santo offers access to some of Chile’s finest beaches, seafood, landscapes, and cultural experiences, while preserving the privacy and serenity of a secluded retreat.

Whether imagined as a family escape, a refined hospitality experience, a creative retreat, or a destination for intimate gatherings, Olivo Santo Estate represents a unique expression of Chilean coastal living: warm, authentic, sophisticated, and deeply memorable
