Inside Leonardo DiCaprio’s real estate portfolio, from Malibu to a private island in Belize

Leonardo DiCaprio has long been one of Hollywood’s most private stars, but his real estate portfolio offers a fascinating glimpse into his tastes, investments, and commitments. Spanning from California to New York and even a private island in Belize, his properties reflect a mix of historic preservation, modern sustainability, and personal retreat. Below is a detailed look at the homes and lands that the Oscar-winning actor has called his own—or still owns.

Los Angeles Estate: The Oriole Way Compound

DiCaprio’s first major real estate move came in the mid-1990s when he purchased a home at 9045 Oriole Way in Los Angeles. He gradually expanded the property over the years, acquiring four adjoining parcels from neighbors, including one formerly owned by Madonna, which he bought for $2.5 million. Today, the compound spans five acres and includes multiple swimming pools, a basketball court, extensive landscaping for privacy, and solar panels. The estate made headlines when a neighbor sued over the basketball court’s lights, but the case was eventually settled. DiCaprio continues to own this sprawling retreat, which remains his primary Los Angeles residence.

Spanish Hacienda in Silver Lake

In 1999, DiCaprio purchased a 4,006-square-foot Spanish-style home in the Silver Lake neighborhood for $769,500. He held the property for two decades before selling it in 2019 for $1.555 million—a tidy profit of $785,500. The new owners stripped many of the original period details, including Spanish tilework and a tin ceiling in the outdoor pavilion, replacing them with modern finishes. Despite these changes, the home retains its charm and now features an exposed brick kitchen, wine rooms, and whitewashed bedrooms.

Blackadore Caye, Belize: An Eco-Resort Vision

In 2005, DiCaprio purchased Blackadore Caye, a 104-acre island off the coast of Belize, for an undisclosed sum. His vision was to create a luxury eco-resort that would restore the island’s damaged ecosystem. He partnered with architect Jason McLennan, a pioneer of sustainable design, to develop 68 overwater villas, 48 private homes, infinity pools, and other amenities. The project was originally scheduled to open in 2018, but as of 2025, construction is still ongoing. The resort aims to reverse overfishing, erosion, and deforestation, setting a new standard for environmentally conscious hospitality.

Battery Park City Apartment

Going bicoastal, DiCaprio purchased a $3.67 million apartment at 2 River Terrace in New York’s Battery Park City in 2008. The building, designed by David Rockwell, emphasizes clean living with twice-filtered air, nontoxic materials, and energy efficiency. Six years later, he bought the adjoining unit, merging them into a larger space. The apartment boasts stunning Hudson River views and access to amenities like a lap pool, yoga studio, children’s playroom, and a dog spa. Both purchases were made quietly, bypassing public listings.

Palm Springs Mid-Century Modern Home

In 2014, DiCaprio added a piece of architectural history to his portfolio: a $5.2 million Palm Springs estate designed by Donald Wexler, a master of desert modernism. The home at 432 West Hermosa Place features wood-paneled ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows framing mountain views, and glass-and-stone detailing. A grand piano and steam shower add to the luxury. DiCaprio rents the property out for $3,750 per night, allowing fans and travelers a taste of mid-century glamour.

Greenwich Village Condo

Also in 2014, DiCaprio purchased a $10 million condo in Greenwich Village. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home featured vitamin C-infused showers, aromatherapy, posture-supportive flooring, and circadian rhythm lighting. He sold the unit just two years later for $8 million—a $2 million loss. The property’s unique health-focused amenities reflect DiCaprio’s interest in wellness and sustainable living.

Los Feliz Spanish Colonial for His Mother

In 2021, DiCaprio bought a Spanish Colonial in Los Feliz for $7.1 million from actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson and his husband. The home, intended for his mother, features a curved terra-cotta staircase, beamed ceilings, stained glass in the library, and a jewel-box color scheme. Outside, arched doorways, a teal-tiled pool, and a Juliet balcony overlook a courtyard strung with fairy lights. The property blends old-world charm with modern comfort.

Malibu Homes: A Beachside Saga

DiCaprio’s Malibu holdings are as dynamic as the tides. He purchased a 3,300-square-foot beachfront home in July 2021 for $13.7 million, with four bedrooms, five baths, a sauna, multiple balconies, and private beach access. He listed it in 2025 for $23 million and briefly rented it for $65,000 per month before cutting the price to $3 million and pulling it off the market in April 2026. Separately, he owned a Carbon Beach home bought after Titanic, which he sold around the same time. A third Malibu property, a 610-square-foot cottage on undeveloped land purchased for $23 million in 2017, was bought through a corporate entity linked to his production company Appian Way.

Across these diverse properties—from an eco-resort in Belize to a historic L.A. compound—DiCaprio has demonstrated a savvy eye for value, a commitment to the environment, and a love for architectural integrity. Each home tells a story of a man who, despite his fame, has built a life of privacy, purpose, and thoughtful investment.
