    Does anyone know of a shop for matting and framing artwork on the Nicoya Peninsula? Also looking for a reasonable interior designer on the Nicoya Peninsula.

    There is a great framer, matter, etc. in Hojancha that most people in samara/carrillo area use. I know where it is but not the name, but I’ll try and find out.

    It might be much more sensible to find a good designer in the Central Valley area. There are far, far more sources for materials here, cheaper AND it should only be necessary for your professional to go once to your Nicoya property. Expect to pay a trip charge but you should save hundreds, if not thousands on the cost of furnishings. Your designer should ideally charge you by the hour and NOT mark up all of your purchases. That is the most economical way to work with a good designer! Good luck!

    Sue makes a good point about the resources in the Central Valley, but there is a great interior designer from the central valley that also has a beautifully decorated home here in Samara, and she speaks perfect English! If you are still interested let me know via PM and I’ll send you her contact information.

    And although the majority of furniture and accessory stores remain in the Central Valley, it is amazing how much that market has grown in Guanacaste, with Habitat, Artistica, Zen and others having stores here now.

    Good luck in your search!
