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 at an elevation of 698 meters above sea level on the western edge of the Central Valley.
