Costa Rica

Costa Rica used to be very off the beaten path. Though the secret may be out now about this glorious tropical destination, don’t think you’ll be bumping elbows with other tourists here. There’s plenty of Costa Rica to go around, and luxurious privacy is the name of the game; just you, your villa, the parrots and the monkeys.

  • Ellice del Mar, California

    Alba was amazing to work with. Very professional, timely and enthusiastic! The home, while beautiful, was undoubtedly high maintenance and finicky. The smart features often weren’t working properly and required lots of contact with the property manager.

Costa Rica can be as adventurous or as relaxed as you wish…or both, all in the same day.

Golfing and spa retreats are also very popular here.
