Caribbean South, Puerto Viejo

 The Southern Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica is truly a wonderful place to visit with its laidback environs, spicy piquant food, and unique Afro-Caribbean culture. The heart and soul of the Caribbean Coast, this region with its rich flavors has become a tourist favorite for those who are looking to relax and have some fun in the sun. Step into Puerto Limon, the capital of Limon Province and you will be transported into a completely different world.

Most of the people here are of Afro-Caribbean decent and were brought either from Jamaica or other Caribbean Islands to help work on the railroads or in the banana plantations that still support and make up much of this provinces exports. If you tour Southern Limon today, you will find numerous banana plantations as bananas are now a major cash crop out here.

Head into any of the towns along Costa Ricas Southern Caribbean Coast and you will find yourself in what can only be described as mini Jamaica with reggae and calypso music being played in the streets, delicious Costa Rican Creole cooking aromas, and a mix of a Spanish English dialect that is spoken here. Welcoming strangers with open arms, these towns are an experience in themselves.

Inaccessible till only a couple of decades back, this region has enjoyed a tourist boom in the recent years with the construction of the Gupiles Highway in 1987 connecting Limon to the capital city of San Jose. Visit the gorgeous Cahuita National Park and Gandoca-Manzanillo Refuge, home to amazing coastal rainforests and stunning underwater marine life and coral reefs. For the avid surfer, a trip to this region would incomplete without staying over at Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, with its amazing beaches and home of the famed Salsa Brava. The prefect place to kickback and have a good time this town is a great place to stay in.

For those who are looking for a quieter time, there are plenty of remote areas in the region, where one can stay literally in the middle of the jungle and still just a few minutes away from the coast. These all inclusive resorts are great as they offer a tranquil haven to relax as there are no other tourist facilities in the immediate area.

WHY PURCHASE REAL ESTATE IN COSTA RICA?
An investment in Costa Rica is much more certain than an investment in California real estate was 30 years ago, and that is the comparison being made with land in Costa Rica. Costa Rica property values are at a point very similar to what was in California before the land boom on the USA coast. Those who purchased land in California back then, have accumulated great wealth through their earlier land investing. All evidence points to Costa Rica being at a very similar time for excellent land value appreciation.

*Costa Rica land value appreciation has earned 20% yearly or more.
*Lifestyle and infrastructure are excellent and affordable, causing the major Intel Corporation (as well as many other world leading companies) to choose Costa Rica for a major world base, after they had looked all over the western hemisphere.
*Costa Rica’s current prosperity boom is being fueled by the emigration of affluent baby boomers from around the world, seeking their own piece of a tropical paradise.
*English is the 2nd language, spoken fluently by over half of the population.
*Costa Rica is much like a little Hawaii, with world class ocean beaches (by law, no private beachfront ownership allowed, so all may enjoy any of the ocean beachfront) with tropical forests, range land to mountainous terrain, pristne streams and waterfalls, volcanic topography, farming communities to major upscale resorts.
*Climate on average of 82F, making no need for expensive heating nor cooling systems.
*Costa Rica has all the modern conveniences and technologies of the USA, though with a very real feeling of being a world away, though only a 2 hour flight out of Miami.
*First-Class education system, boasting of a 96% literacy rate. The safest of all Central America countries, with only a border patrol, no military, as uses all such funds to put into education and social programs. Is a United Nations declared neutral country (as Switzerland).
*Overall very HIGH quality of life with a very low crime rate.
*Excellent, affordable medical care with an average lifespan of 80 years.

The Talamanca News

Recession? says Who?

Posted: 26 Jun 2009 02:28 PM PDT

You would never know there was a recession in Puerto Viejo with the number of projects currently underway.  And on top of all the building, they are finally making progress in fixing the roads.  Rumor has it that they are hoping to complete the pavment between Hone Creek and Puerto Viejo with final black top in September and October, as that is when there is the least chance of rain.

New Palí store in Hone Creek on opening day.

The new Banco Naciónal bank building

Today was the opening of the new Palí in Hone Creek.  They are known throughout Central America as the discount grocer.  Controlling interest of Palí along with 4 other Central American supermarket chains were bought by Walmart a few years back.  If today’s line ups and traffic jam to get in are any indication, it will be a huge success.

David, local furniture builder and wood artist who works right across the street, seemed happy with the opening.  It seemed more important to him that there would be more women to watch than the opportunity to sell more furniture.

Hone Creek was also just graced with a new office for the local water company.  It seems that Hone creek will be the central town for most supporting services to the area.  Large construction material provider, Colono is located right in the center and opened just over 1 year ago.

The new Banco National Building which is right next door to the Bank of Costa Rica has just been completed and is ready for occupancy.  In addition to the bank there will be some offices and retail also in the buillding.

As if one new Supermarket was not enough, developers are wasting no time in constructing a new Mega-Super right in downtown Puerto Viejo.  Prices will not be as low as discounter Palí, but will provide some competition for the current markets in town whose prices often seem aimed at tourists, making living and shopping in the community difficult for locals.  This can be a real hardship for the locals, when typical salaries run $400- $500 month.

And finally, a gas station.  Just down from the new Palí is a new gas station just going in.  It should be ready in a couple months.  Right now, the closest one is in Penshurt, 22 kms away, so advance planning and wasted fuel is required for a fill-up.  Local sources say it will have the same owner as the station in Penshurt.

Not all are thrilled by all these displays of capitalism, as the lively debate on the Talamanca News on previous development news has proven.

New gas station building site, Hone Creek.
