Thanks to our resident helicopter pilot and security director for taking some photos of Las Catalinas this weekend. This link will take you to a 360 view of town that is fun to explore.
Head down to the Sales Office. We have a few hand plane boards there, which makes body surfing a lot of fun. If you want one made, we can get one done up at the wood shop for you. Or even better, come up and make one with us!
I think we have some football games on TV today, but games down on the beach seem more appropriate today.
Sun was up this morning just after 5AM, it was a comfortable 72 Degrees. The parakeets were up and were seemingly very busy. They have been hanging out in a panama tree over by Calle la Ronda in the early morning and then again at dusk.
Turns out that being at Las Catalinas for the U.S. Thanksgiving is a great choice. The weather is near perfect, and spending time with friends and family is so easy.
Had the pleasure of getting an email last night from Jeffrey Dungan. He is the architect of the Camino Catalinas Building, which frames out the south end of Plaza Central. In this video, he provides great insight in to some of the motivations behind his drawing hand.
Lunch time at Limonada! These are spring rolls that Chef Carlos makes, with fresh tuna and vegetables. This dish and the veggie wrap are some of our best sellers in Limonada. Either one goes well with a ginger lemonade. To finish lunch, order a "brigadeiro" for dessert. It is a treat that you will ...
Low tide is just bottoming out now, and the water clarity is excellent. There are millions of little sardine like fish in the bay today. This has attracted schools of larger fish, and loads of pelicans. Today is definitely a day to explore by sea. Grab a kayak or a paddle board and get out there!
Thanks to the team at Four Nineteen for creating such a fun environment for dinner last night. It looked like a lot of fun. Las Catalinas is such an easy place to meet up with friends at. There are so many things to do here in Town, there is no stress in ensuring everyone has fun. The setting is ...
Just 84 Days until the Las Catalinas Triathlon, and 128 days until Xterra Costa Rica! Time to start getting ready. We are very much looking forward to having two training camps in December. They should be a lot of fun, make your plans to participate by clicking here.
Work on the Puente de San Miguel continues. It should be finishing right before the construction team takes a few well earned weeks off in December. Once complete, we will be able to bring in the landscaping behind Plaza Carlota. This bridge will make walking from Punta Penca to Paseo del Mar very ...
Tonight there will be nearly 350 people laying their heads to rest in Las Catalinas. That marker keeps steadily rising, and will be closer to 600 by this time next year. It is always fun to see how much more enjoyable walking through town becomes with more neighbors, visitors, and owners here.
So we may have incorrectly guessed the beginning of summer. Today it seems nature wants to get one more good storm. We may not see a drop again until May, so these last rainfalls are to be enjoyed. Looks like it will peak tonight and then brighten up by morning. The wind pushing the storm is coming ...
We are very fortunate to have a big team in the kitchen at Limonada and the Beach Club. These men and women put out a solid product, routinely. One of the many that make it all work in the back of house is Warlin. Recently, Warlin has been focusing on Sushi, which he usually puts up on Thursday ...
The fountain which centers Plaza Carlota is really taking shape now. The center column of the fountain ended up being hand carved, and now the main water feature is going to be mounted. I am very excited to see the final product, it is going to be a very special addition to Beach Town.
As expected, Jake and the crew at PVR put on a great event yesterday. The weather was nearly perfect. Competitors did have some chop and a few pretty big waves coming in. The start of our family race was pretty comical, watching everyone trying to get out past the breakers. The horn went off right ...
