Costa Rica Real Estate For Sale For Rent Retirement Living

Costa Rica, is a stunning and peaceful country with the highest biodiversity in the world. Costa Rica offers incredible views and stunning real estate, ranging from luxury oceanfront homes to affordable fincas and single family homes in traditional villages.

Costa Rica Oceanfront Real Estate Properties

Costa Rica has two oceans and two main cultures.  On the Pacific Ocean you can typically find Costa Ricans lovingly nicknamed "Ticos" and on the Atlantic Ocean, especially in and around Limon, you will find an English-speaking, Jamaican influenced, African-Caribbean culture.

Created by still active volcanoes, this country has incredibly diverse altitude and landscapes that offer a range of climates.

 Throughout the central part of the country you can find eternal summer with optimal climates (explaining why 2/3 of the population lives here!)

If your desire is to experience the fauna and flora of the warm and tropical rainforests, visit the South & Central Pacific and the Caribbean coastal areas.  If you prefer a dry climate with seasonal changes, or a jungle to still see the autumn colors in a variety of trees, then try the dry forests of the northwest Pacific Coast of Guanacaste and western valleys of Costa Rica.

Costa Ricans take great pride in their country and are very open people welcoming foreigners. The relatively low crime rate and no military, coupled with a multitude of natural diversity within such a small space, makes living in Costa Rica an experience filled with beauty and excitement. The country has four types of rain forests and over 60 clearly visible volcanic mountains!

Costa Rica, meaning "Rich Coast", was the first country in the world to constitutionally abolish the use of a national army. With foreigners having the same property ownership rights as nationals, by granting them a title through a transparent and respectable legal system, purchasing Costa Rica Real Estate is simple. Foreign Home buyers have and continue to come, especially from North America and Europe with Asian, Russian and Arabic immigration on a steady incline.

Ocean front 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom condo located directly on the beach of Playa Potrero. This charming condo has a great layout and location—it just needs some TLC and updating. For the buyer who is willing to invest a little sweat equity, this is a great opportunity! The master bathroom has already been updated. Condo is situated in an intimate 4-unit building. Condo features vaulted ceilings with Costa Rican hardwood, an airy and open layout, a large terrace that can accommodate a dining table and sitting area, and sliding glass doors that open beautifully to the terrace and Pacific Ocean. This unit is all about ocean views, walks on the beach, and sunsets. This condo is pet friendly; is walking distance to the local fruit stand, restaurants, bars, and grocery stores; and is located right on Playa Potrero.. Playa Potrero is known to be one of the safest beaches in Costa Rica. It is a protected bay that shields the beach from large waves and riptides. Many families bring their children to play on this beach because of the calmness that the beach offers. Playa Potrero neighbors Flamingo Beach, which is known as the Beverly Hills of Costa Rica. Potrero has a wonderful expat community that is reminiscent of a 1950 beach town. The road through Potrero was just recently paved. This is big news for the town, and it is drawing a lot of attention from new home owners, developers and restaurateurs. Playa Potrero is one of the best investment opportunities in Guanacaste and Costa Rica as a whole. The residents of Playa Flamingo and Playa Potrero share a bay, in which a not-for-profit organization is spear heading the redesign and development of Playa Flamingo Harbor. This will be a boutique harbor that will accommodate 60 boat splits and have retail shops for local fisherman to sell their fresh catch of the day. This is exciting news for the area.
