Sounds like you’re looking for perspectives, not recommendations, so here are a few of mine. Having visited Limón/Puerto and CV many times, we settled on Guanacaste. It was extremely rural, our desire, yet was accessible to larger towns (in our case, Santa Cruz) for necessary amenities (gasoline, a dentist, etc.) The Pacific Ocean itself was a considerable factor. But what sold us were the people of Veinte Siete, Paraiso, Marbella, and the other towns in our midst. Not a comparison to other areas at all, but we are so genuinely happy with our decision and again, primarily due to the people. Because of obligations in the US, the relative proximity I have to the Liberia airport is notable, though fares are higher of course than SJO. Rainy season warrants a doble tracción where we are, which is right on the coast. Living in such heat takes a bit of getting used to (and some caution,) as someone stated above. Oh, and the other thing that was pretty interesting for me, being African American, was the tacit assumption that I was/am a tico de Limón which amuses me almost daily!
I personally don’t think that anyone should recommend any company or person that they personally haven’t used or had experience with and the job [b][i]completed[/i][/b]
It is easy to ‘talk the talk…’:lol:[/quote]I haven’t recommended my property manager,hence I didn’t provide her name. Anyway, I’ve used her for years at my other house in Marbella. I was only trying to illustrate the property manager concept to the original poster.
Hi. We completed our house in January, and hired a property manager. She is extremely thorough and manages a cleaning team, a fumigating team (every 30 days) and external landscaping. What’s just as important is she also pays all of the bills locally (ICE, etc.) and taxes. Its worked out extremely well.
