RE/MAX Oceanside Jaco Costa Rica is the perfect match for me as it allows me to use my business finance and international business background.  I enjoy sharing my passion for this beautiful paradise  with others looking to relocate or invest here.
I came to Costa Rica for the first time in 2000 to surf and work for Young Life and Christian Surfers Costa Rica, two non-profit organizations.  After a short time I knew Costa Rica was the place I wanted to call home.

The more I travel I realize we have something special here in the Central Pacific of Costa Rica.  It offers such a special mix of lifestyle, activities, nature, wonderful people and a richness to life itself.  In my free time I love to surf, play tennis,  paint, garden and travel the world.

STARBUCKS in Costa Rica

Friday, January 27th, 2012

imageby , Jaco Beach Costa Rica

imageIn May 2012, the American coffee shop chain will be opening it’s first location in Costa Rica.  The Pan American Coffee Corporation entered the Central American region last August starting in El Salvador.  They have since also opened six locations in Guatemala.  Much to the excitement of both locals and visitors, Costa Rica is next in line.

It is great to see strong companies like this moving into our area.  It even crosses an item off my list of “things I miss from the United States”.  Starbucks was one of my favorite locations to spend time with friends and/or read a book with a cup of Costa Rican coffee and cranberry scone.

We are still waiting for the exact location but I would bet on the Escazú area of San Jose.  Beyond that our hope is that Jaco Beach would be next in line.  It is, after all, the most visited beach town in the country.

For more information on the current real estate market contact us.

Real Estate in Los Suenos Resort and Marina

Wednesday, December 28th, 2011

by Hannah Rico Fletcher with REMAX Oceanside Jaco Beach, Costa Rica

Today I am going to show you a little bit more of the amenities offered in this beautiful gated community starting with the marina. This full service international marina is located in the heart of the Los Suenos community which is just over 1,100 acres. It is the port for many luxury boats and yachts with 300 slips. Costa Rica is known for its world class deep sea fishing drawing tourists and investors alike looking for a vacation home in the tropics.

Within the Los Suenos Resort gates you will also find every service and amenity imaginable. Visit the five star Marriott hotel with its own fitness, tennis club, and spa. Try your luck at the casino. Take a walk through the 600 acre rainforest reserve or relax at the exclusive Beach Club.

If you are a golfer you will not want to miss the breathtaking 18-hole championship golf course designed by Ted Robinson Jr. Or my favorite would have to been the great selection of restaurants which will help to keep you out of the kitchen. Many of them are located in the charming Marina Village along with other specialty shops.

Whatever your preference is, if you are looking for luxury real estate in Costa Rica, this gated community is a must see with over 500 extravagant residences including ready to build lots, single family homes and condos starting just under $300k.

I hope you enjoyed our tour of our little piece of paradise. For more information contact me.
