of Guanacaste, which is also the driest area of Costa Rica.
There is virtually no rainfall from about mid-November until
late April or May. Generally, rains are light until late August.
Frequent and extensive sunny periods are common even during
the heavier rainy period. Locals refer to this beautiful season
as "The Green Season" or "winter"
The
Property: Our immediate property consists of 4 luxury
villas set on a hillside, offering some unsurpassed views
of the Pacific Ocean, Flamingo Beach and Marina, the surrounding
hills and valleys of this enchanted land. Our
property is approximately 35+ hectares (70+ acres) which we
keep in a natural state as a wildlife preserve for the many
indigenous birds and animals.
