What if ....

Words of President Arias at the opening of the TEDx yesterday in Costa Rica: "Imagine for an instant, what would it be if our region would grant more power to system engineers and designers, instead to Colonels and Generals. If we would only use more of our resources to buy more books and computers, instead of misils and war tanks" President Arias added in his speach: "What would happen if we could turn the expenses of war into dividends for peace? With the cost of one helicopter gunship you can feed thousands of school children during a whole school year. The cost of one helicopter could protect decens of square kilometers of forest." http://www.ted.com/pages/view/id/258 Would this be the way to have a happy planet without wars??

When UNIQUE is Unique!

When you are searching for a luxury home in Costa Rica you probably have a word clearly defined in your mind: UNIQUE. You want a home that offers your guests not only the comforts of luxury, but some kind of uniqueness in the way that it makes it attractive enough for everyone to be there instead of been anywhere else in the world! Uf! That sounds difficult to get... but not in Costa Rica, where some houses offer a different kind of uniqueness, difficult to match else where. The Glass House http://costaricamilliondollarhomes.com/Casa-The-Glass-House/index.html is a perfect model of uniqueness, a place to hide from the world but at the same time be connected with nature and its wonders like if you were living inside a 3D movie of another time in the future. Don´t miss the opportunity of sharing your thoughts about the concept of Uniqueness in the million dollar range. To view The Glass House visit:

The opportunity to own luxury in an exotic destination

Opportunity is a word that life brings to us everyday. Opportunity is a chance to act. The thing with this word is that the power of decision is only yours and this is where things get complicated. We make decisions everyday, some good some bad. It all has to do with opportunities, lining one after the other. Take it or leave it... that is the question. When you are making a decision about living in an exotic destination it all has to do with the opportunity of changing your lifestyle. And the word "change" is another word that people tend to avoid because it implies exactly what it says! Living in Costa Rica is much more than owning a second home in a tropical destination, it is living life at another speed. A client of mine once said "I have lived running in highways from one place to the other all of my life... why would I want the front road to my beach home in Costa Rica paved?" That is exactly what it is a change of lifestyle and living life at another...

The Wonder of wonders

Costa Rica is the Wonder of wonders. Wild rivers running through the valleys, active volcanoes picturing the night, endless beaches framed by the forest, two oceans embrassing its coasts, rain and dry forest connected to the universe, it is the magical fusion of nature combined with its friendly people, protected environment and political stability. www.costaricaluxuryestates.com represents the language of luxury in a perfect combination with nature.

New highway to the Pacific Coast - San Jose - Caldera

After 30 years of waiting we finally drive on a beautiful highway to the Pacific Coast. The drive from Santa Ana to Orotina takes only 30 minutes at regular speed! Remember when you had to go through Cerros del Aguacate praying that your car would not end up at the bottom of a 500 meters cliff! Those days are gone. From Santa Ana to the Caldera Port it only takes 45 minutes. The drive to Jaco Beach, Esterillos, Bejuco Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manuel Antonio and Dominical is now shortened in one hour from what used to be driving through Aguacate Mountains. The Central Pacific Coast is already experiencing an increase in demand for property in the area.

Atenas is a new luxury real estate destination!

With the opening of the new highway to the Central Pacific coast, the Caldera Highway, Atenas is now at only 15 minutes distance from Santa Ana. With beautiful hilltops overlooking the mountains, valleys and the Pacific Ocean at the distance, Atenas is turning to be a new address for luxury real estate in Costa Rica. We are taking more listings in that beautiful area of the Central Valley and prices are very competitive as compare to buying luxury real estate in Escazu or Santa Ana, which are the premier destinations for luxury real estate in Costa Rica. Atenas has the most important ingredient for becoming a favorite destination for retirement and second home ownership: National Geographic once recognized Atenas as having "the best climate in the world". Atenas is located in the province of Alajuela in Costa Rica. The district of Atenas covers an area of 8.93 km², and has a population of approximately 26,000. Its name means Athens (Αθήνα) (Spanish name). The city lies ...
