I am looking at a parcel of land in Nosara and would like to here from any of you about what you think of the area, the people the costs etc. We are staying there at the end of the year and all the people I have spoken with say it’s great but hey they all have vested interests right?
November 12, 2007 at 5:35 pm #187954spriteMemberHere is a web site of an individual who is building there. I have never ventured that far north west so I don’t know any more than what I have read about the place. I prefer the cooler temps and conveniences of the Central Valley.

Off course it has been dicover a long time ago, so the land prices are not cheap. To start with part of Nosara is a National reserve, so there is not actually beach front property (pretty much the 200 meters from high tide line, the property right after that is been gone for a while), I am not saying that you can fine a parcel, but I can guarantee you if you do will cost a good penny to get your hands on it. From there you can try to find ocean view, and further ocean smell!!. I suggest that you visit some of the recognize real estate franchises listing via Internet, to get and idea of prices. If you want to contact them it is up to you, but some people have not have good luck on their dealings in the past.
Also Nosara is a great place to eat, you will find very fine dinning, even better than in the central Valley many times. Again it is a “foreign community” so do not expect cheap prices.
Last but not least, until Samara, you will probably manage to get in a fairly smooth road, from there on I hope you will be driving a SUV or some sort, or a croosover, as per you might have to cross rivers. Not to mention that I hope you don`t suffer from your kidneys as per it is (or it was anyway) a bumpy ride.
Other than that, any sacrifice to get there, it is worth it, it is a beatiful place. I hope you do fine a nicve parcel, and as last advise, DO NOT purchase anything until consulting with a reputable attorney.

You can still find land (15 min walk to Pacific) for under $75k but you have to do your homework. There are a few developments going up in the area. Large American and European population and very friendly, life revolves around the ocean, surfing, small businesses. The local Assoc has worked hard and been very successful in keeping the area low impact (no highrise buildings)
