I find that for checking the weather here, the site "Windy" works very well. Just punch in a location and you can see temperature, wind, tides, surf, rain, etc. It is a great tool. About the only thing you will not find is snow...which is why you should be making a trip down to visit soon.
The new real estate listing magazines are ready. Send us a note at Sales@LasCatalinasCR.com if you would like a hard copy sent to your home or office. Las Catalinas is better with friends, may as well encourage a few of them to join you here!
The Daily Blog has been a fun way to find out what is going on in Las Catalinas. We have found another great way is to search "places" on Instagram, putting Las Catalinas as the destination. It is always fun to see what people are doing and how they are enjoying Town.
We got a few new Zip Car options to town today. We loaded this one for beach trips. Some of the surfing beaches around are pretty remote, so this is a great car to grab for two hours for an early morning session. It features off road tires, a rooftop rack and gear box, and portable shower.
It is always exciting to see what the planners and architects have on their concept boards. We are fortunate to have a studio going on right now with Notre Dame. A small group of students, lead by Douglas Duany, are working through concepts for future projects here in Las Catalinas. This studio is ...
The Camino Catalinas building is starting to take form. We have another few weeks to start seeing the exterior be finalized. One of the most exciting things will be to see the town grocery, Copper and Stone, open their doors in April.
Charles posted this picture of Plaza Carlota on our Home Owners page. We are really excited to see the plaza taking shape. Hope you can stop by soon and see the progress!
Big thanks to our Agroforestales team for their work down in the Zapotal Valley. Upwind from our property a small fire broke out. The crew went over and was able to control it, and get it put out. Thank you guys!
Very exciting to announce the ground breaking for construction of #10 Punta Penca. Design by Arosemena & Soundy. This home has a prominent position on Punta Penca, just past the intersection with Calle Virginia. The views of the roofline down Playa Danta will be very special from this home. We ...
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of this week will have spectacular sunrises. Not because of the sun, but because of the moon. If you happen to be in Town, try to find a spot high on the hills around 5:30AM. I would say either the top of McHenry or Punta Guachipelines. Both spots take about thirty ...
We busy moving plants down from the nursery to behind Plaza Carlota. The landscaping effort will go up from the San Miguel bridge to the main road. This will be an enjoyable green area for the frontier of town. With some construction still ahead of us on Calle Cartagena, this green space is really ...
Final color selections for #14 Avenida la Antigua needed to be made this week. This is the building between Plaza Central and Plaza Lucia.
There can be rewards for waking up at 4AM to catch an early morning surfing session (or waking up for an early flight!).
The ping pong games down in Plaza Danta are on! We ended up moving the tables to a more shaded area, that gets less wind, and are in the process of upgrading the gear. We ended up needing the tele-handler to move these solid concrete tables. We tried with 25 people and it was too heavy!
The granite pavers we intend to use for Calle Cartagena and Calle Virginia are being prepped for their travel from Spain. We are hopeful that they will arrive in the next thirty days.
In the distance, you can see Calle Virginia coming down from Punta Penca. I have been using the San Miguel bridge to visit this part of town, and enjoy seeing others doing the same.
