Where to buy Real Estate in Costa Rica - Find out About the Different Climates

By Randy Berg

Where to buy real estate in Costa Rica may be a difficult question for many to answer. This country has some amazing places for investors to buy property. Since Costa Rica is situated in the tropical region, it has a wonderful climate throughout the year. There are 3 mountain ranges that divide this small country and hence create multiple habitats and micro climates.

Costa Rica has two well-defined seasons. The season that last between November and May is called Verano which means summer in English. The other season is Invierno meaning winter which lasts between May and November. It is in this season that most of the rainfall occurs. This article lists out some places which are best suited for investing in properties.

Spot 1: A small, offbeat village on the beach side called Santa Teresa is one among the top favorites for investors. Most of the people who own beach front properties in this area are among the elite in society who come from various parts of the world. This fact makes Santa Teresa a multi cultural community. The lovely white sand beaches of Santa Teresa are famous among surfers too.

Spot 2: Malpais occupies the next spot after Santa Teresa. This is also a small beach side village close to Santa Teresa but not as famous. The waves here are stronger and hence this place is called the surfers paradise. The untouched beauty of nature here coupled with the serene surroundings get this place the second spot. If you are looking for privacy and some picturesque scenery, then, this is the place for you.

Option 3: Playa Hermosa is a small village north of Santa Teresa. This place is also surfers haven. The beaches of Playa Hermosa are broad and more-or-less deserted. The few beach front homes in this area are owned by gringos (foreigners) who dont intend on selling it. This is considered a great area for families and the prices of properties in Playa Hermosa and lesser than prices in Santa Teresa.

Spot 4: Playa Hermosa is followed by Montezuma which occupies the fourth position. This is another village where people have a laidback lifestyle. Though initially occupied by the ticos (locals), this place is gradually gaining prominence among the gringos. The beaches of Montezuma which are filled with white shimmering sand are considered to be the safest in the world.

Spot 5: Another town located in the Nicoya peninsula, called Tambor, occupies the fifth place in the list of investors. This place is also called the Whale Bay since a lot of whales migrate to this place each year for mating and giving birth. Since the beaches of this town are well protected from ocean swells, they are suited for diving, swimming and snorkeling. This town is popular among ticos and gringos.

Option 6: Cabuya: Cabuya is home to some amazingly lovely waterfalls and lush greenery. This is a town close to the village of Montezuma. This place which was initially populated by ticos is now gaining prominence among the gringos too. Cabuya has some lovely beaches which are again best suited for surfing and it is gaining prominence due to its tranquil surroundings which is filled with ethereal beauty. - 23217
