Does anyone have any new information on this project and their opinion of this project, how good or bad could it be! Concerned resident from Playa Chiquita….Thanks
Depends on your persepctive. The Quepos marina is/will be very successful, but Quepos is bigger the P.V. The marina in Q is built by a firm from Bellingham, WA with a state of th art pier and anchor system. It will change P.V. in terms of bringing more people, especially yachtsmen. Could create a nice higher end waterfront community, but the downside is the dreaded multi-story complex. If they keep in low scale similar to the Emerald Coast in Florida’s panhandle (Seaside, Rosemary Beach, Watercolor), it can work. Your land values will go up, but so will the crime element. Overall, the local economy would benefit, but the impact to the snorkeling/sea life is a huge concern. There is always an up and down side, so it is up to the local community to participate, whether to exert influence or fight it all together. A responsible developer will involve the community.
The best site I know of that is most definitely NOT in favour of the marina is [ http://salvemospuertoviejo.com/ ]
Please note that this is a Spanish site but, you have to get started with your Spanish some time right?
