We had a blast at Circus Night. Most all of the kids in Town made it down to watch the show. The parents that were not watching, enjoyed having their own conversations and a few cocktails while the kids were occupied. Everyone wins.
Busy busy days in Limonada. For the lunch service, Chef has put up a pop up shop with Arroz con Pollo. One of my favorites for this time of year. He has also had some specials out each evening in the restaurant and live music. Very fun to see such a lively scene and folks walking around town after ...
I am always excited to share the little passageways that open up when the construction screens go down. This is a set of stairs at the south end of Plaza Central, which connects the plaza to Calle la Ronda. We did not have time to get them completed before the crew took some well earned time off, ...
Normally March in Guanacaste is quite warm, with not much wind and cloudless blue skies. This year has been slightly different: A little less hot, with more breeze and even some clouds. Two days ago, while passing by the Monkey trail a few drops fell on my windscreen from a very gray cloud. It ...
Julio is the best for keeping us up to date on what happens in town during the wee hours. This is the third time in six years he has been able to see an armadillo from up close. Thanks Julio!
In front of Stucasa there are several cacti and one of them was just in bloom. These flowers are not often seen, and they only last a day. This one is a Harrisia fragrans which is quite a rare species. It’s known as fragrant prickly apple and Caribbean applecactus. The flowers smell amazing, ...
We should have great conditions today for snorkeling and also a nice moderate swell for boogie boarding. Yesterday I went snorkeling and the visibility once I got outside the surf zone to a depth of 15 feet or so was EXCELLENT. I saw a big spotted moray eel just swimming freely along the rocky ...
This week, in the midst of a very busy and completely full town, we are working on plans for a future neighborhood of Las Catalinas known as Las Cruces. This neighborhood will be up on the hills in an area that has quite a bit of relatively level ground at around 100 meters of altitude. The views ...
So many people miss their dogs while travelling, I sure do so! Everyone is welcome to join Pula & Bubbs for hikes in the trails this March. Every Tuesday for a morning hike at 7am, and every Friday for a Sunset hike to McHenry peak at 5pm. Meeting point is at LaPula shop, and they will be very ...
Today we had a sunset sail for guests... Great chance to explore the area by sea, get together and meet other families staying in town. With a little clouds, there's a pretty good chance of a fantastic sunset.
Spring break is here! It's been a great weekend with many guests arriving, and very happy with the sun, warm weather and cool refreshing water at the beach. It´s fun to see the kids enjoying town in different ways, here setting up their improvised relaxation area.
Part of ConnectOcean’s hands-on community-based service learning includes the Nipper Surf Lifesaving Program, coordinated by their Swimming Academy, it takes place every Saturday morning at the Beach Club.
Walking along Paseo del Mar I noticed how colourful is right now. The Bougainvillea plants are definitely the ones standing out more. They are locally know as "Veraneras" (from the Spanish word for Summer: Verano) because the warmer and sunnier it gets, the more colourful their flower-like spring ...
The second edition of Las Catalinas magazine is out. We would be more than happy to send you one, but wouldn't it be better to come and pick up your copy?
This month Josue, an Artisan from Guaitil town, will have an exhibition and market of traditional Chorotegan pottery at Limonada every Tuesday. He is one of several artisans that continue making this indigenous art form as their ancestors did, using clay and sand from a specific mountain and using ...
