Properties in Guanacaste
Mountains & Spectacular Beaches
Starting out of the steep Guanacaste Cordillera volcanic mountain range you will witness the beauty how rivers have shaped and nourished life in all forms. Flowing through rainforests and plains to then join the ocean makes one gape when those breathtaking white sand beaches along the coast reveal themselves. With beaches like Playa del Coco and Playa Tamarindo and almost countless national parks Guanacaste drew millions of tourists and investors to the region.
Heritage & Revenue
With a low population density and a cultural and economic heritage in beef cattle ranching, Guanacaste has made tourism their flagship which turned out for them to become the leading state in Costa Rica’s tourist industry making up 7.2 percent of the country’s GDP in 2008. Visitors have become frequent guests because of what Costa Rica has to offer.
Eternal Real Estate Boom
Guanacaste has never experienced such an intense real estate boom as nowadays. It has currently the highest development rate in Central America which affects the whole region vastly. A new international airport, further development of international competing medical facilities, and land as far as the eye can reach where you will find yourself enjoying life in paradise in your new home in Guanacaste.
Quick Access to Airport
Guanacaste’s Liberia International Airport enabled the region to become even more attractive to foreign buyers and investors and with it the overall growing economy Costa Rica’s. Transportation from there to reach your destination in paradise is easily arranged either in advance or on ground.
