Today, it is all about the perfect weather. We have enjoyed cooling onshore breezes blowing all day. The temperature is in the upper 80s, and the air is very dry. We have some knee high waves falling, and the water temperature is near perfect. On top of all that, we have flowers blooming throughout ...
Walking around town at night is quite magic. After certain time it is all calm and quiet, with warm lights on the streets and a few lights still on inside houses. Normally skies are full of stars, unless as these nights, the moon is so bright you can see perfectly well even in the trails and at the ...
Easter Egg hunt beach style! Hundreds of eggs at the Beach and along Paseo del Mar. It’s one of my favourite days in town, along with the TRI and Halloween. Such an anticipated hunt, specially for the the kids that live here and those coming every year... They sure help the Easter Bunny keep ...
It was nearly a year ago to the date that we celebrated the opening of beautiful Plaza Lucia. This plaza will become the classic single tree plaza of Beach Town. It is exciting to imagine her canopy providing shade in the day and filtering the moon rays in the evening. Thursday we enjoyed a small ...
Our colleague Julio took a few great pictures this morning on his way through Town. The tall tree with the yellow flowers is the Cortez Amarillo. During the dry season, these trees drop their leaves and then we get treated for a special week when the flower. These bright yellow trumpet flowers last ...
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.
