I would highly recommend downloading Google Earth, and maybe even to splurge for the Pro package. It is one of those programs I really enjoy using. Being able to visit cities we love all over the world from my notebook is simply amazing. If you look at Earth, and begin to zoom in on a certain area, ...
It was 77 Degrees this morning out on the trails. Some of the valleys were cooler than that. There are some low laying pockets on the way to the point, that are densely green and lush. It amazes me each year how quickly things turn green. Some of our springs are opening up, and glimpses of running ...
Today we had one of those overcast days. With all the rain, everything has now turned brilliantly green but the sky today was cool and dark. The temperatures are in the mid 70s and the winds are cool. Just perfect.
We are very excited to have more buildings starting to develop along the main road. The Camino Catalinas building is starting to take shape and unveil some of her accents. This pop of color is going to be right alongside the main road and really look great!
We have gotten some really good rains in May, and hope to see some more upcoming. An essential item this time of year are Ziploc Bags. They make all ranges these days, and are seemingly available everywhere. They are great if you are traveling and find yourself without all the dry bag gear and high ...
We enjoyed a screening of Fishpeople at the Beach Club last night with Connect Ocean. This is an inspiring film produced by the folks at Patagonia. We will have a representative from Patagonia today at Pura Vida Ride for their 7th anniversary. They will be here on site offering repairs on any ...
For those of you reading in Costa Rica, tonight at 8PM there will be more artisan beef available through Hacienda Sur. One of our neighbors here in Las Catalinas, JP, introduced me to this farm. The whole operation is cared for in the most impressive of ways.
Much like the tourism boards or convention services bureaus, we have had a need to get out and explain what it is we are doing. With one of our main economies here being based on tourism, we have an audience with travel buyers, editors, airlines, and distributers. With these folks, we need to ...
Perfect beach day! Low tide is at 11AM, and we will have some cloud cover to keep the rays off. There will only be a small southern swell at ten second intervals.
Work continues on our permanent parking lot. With the loss of one lot due to the construction of the hotel, and our second lot giving way to the Prado, we will need this parking option in the very near future for in town demand. The site was selected for it's proximity to the entertainment district ...
It is a national holiday here in Costa Rica today. We are very happy to celebrate our Labor Day, May 1st with the team. With many people off work, we enjoyed having the restaurant full of visitors. The rain held off and everyone was able to spend a relaxing day down on Playa Danta!
We are delighted to announce the sale of Calle Cartagena #6. There are just a few more available lots in this side of town. It is certainly our most active area of construction currently, with over a dozen homes under construction and more breaking ground soon. This is an older photo, but shows the ...
Happened on this photo of #15 Paseo del Mar, Casa Tom. This home has such a wonderful feel off the entryway, which leads in to an intimate interior courtyard. Here is a throwback link to a few courtyards that can be found here. One of our Town Architects had put this and a few other photo ...
With summer break approaching, our Travel team is busy planning vacations. We have more and more families taking advantage of the unique learning activities that exist here. Book a trip soon and enjoy some of my favorite week long programs:
With more humidity in the air, we are getting unbelievable sunsets this week. Everyone must get down to the beach for sunset. The tide is low in the evenings, and there is a very solid swell in this week. Great surfing and body boarding at sunset is such a great way to end the day.
Calle Cartagena #11 has begun construction! With homes to the south along Calle Cartagena also underway or complete, this well proportioned home will extend the development in this section of town. It is essentially a beach front home, and is a focal point for those walking down the sand. This is ...
