RE/MAX Pura Vida is back with another update and this time around we have a slew of properties in one of our favorite parts of town. North Santa Teresa holds its own in the Southern Nicoya Peninsula as a little more niche part of the Playa Hermosa, Santa Teresa, and Mal Pais area. With newer shops and restaurants backed by a few local mainstays, North Santa Teresa provides more than just the top surf breaks and sunset stops in town. Conveniently located on an edge between Hermosa and the bustling heart of Santa Teresa, “North Santa” is perfect for those who like to be a short trek from the sparsely populated beaches and fishing holes of Manzanillo while still being walking distance from anything that may be going on in town. Many young families are moving into this area because of its close proximity to the local private school in Hermosa Valley.
Main Home & Guest Apartments $350,000 USD
Buying a property that can instantly begin paying itself off is hard to find and usually requires paying handsomely for. Our second opportunity today is a future home that shouldn’t be passed up. Easily one of the more affordable properties listed in the area, this half-hectare lot houses a main home with beautiful bamboo, teak, and reed accents over a traditional Costa Rican build style, set back away from the main road. In addition to the main dwelling the small lot boasts multiple apartments at the front of the property kept private by lush jungle foliage. Don’t miss out on this perfect opportunity for someone who has frequent guests and wants to keep an in-flow of cash when not surrounded by visiting friends and family.
Perhaps turn-key isn’t your style and you’re more a blank canvas type. RE/MAX Pura Vida has this rare gem located steps away from some of the beast beaches in Costa Rica. Approved for a single dwelling or even small tourism cabinas, this flat, open property is perfect for someone primed to build and plant right away. Electricity hook-up and a registered well means there will be little to no delay in getting started on whatever your plan may be.
Hilltop Ocean View Lot $375,000 USD
One blank canvas is not always the same as another and the scenes painted by our next property are hard to compare to. If views are at the top of your requirements list in a dream home, then this next lot has a good chance of peaking your interests. 
Dramatic to say the least, this terraced property boasts two build sites, a well, ocean views, agriculturally protected zoning and electricity hook-up. Tack all of that onto everything that already comes with living in North Santa Teresa and whatever is built on this lot will sure to be someone’s definition of heaven on Earth.
Multi-Unit Property w/ Pool & Steps to The Beach $495,000 USD
Go big or go home in the case of our next opportunity. While not the priciest listing today, it certainly weighs in as the biggest. Not everyone is looking for a full time or even part time residence, instead seeking out business opportunities they can enjoy taking part in. Purchasing a multi-unit fully furnished, turnkey hotel in a rapidly growing surf, eco-tourism, health-tourism hotspot located within a safe and stable nation already known for its paradise jungle beaches seems as close to a sure thing as anyone is allowed to legally get. 
To simply describe how great this opportunity is required a “run-on sentence.” Built using locally sourced materials and hidden from surrounding properties by abundant jungle foliage book a tour with us to get real feel for this opportunity of a lifetime.
Multi-Unit Apartment Building & Pool $690,000 USD
Most viewers don’t realize that the background scenes and views out of doors and windows in movies are superimposed from somewhere else. Our first showy home has views that are so beautiful that they trick the eye into wondering if they are a reality. In fact, the whole home could be the set of a movie in the way the design masterfully blends the interior and exterior spaces. 
A pool set within a central atrium can be accessed from most lower level rooms and with faux turf accents spilling between interior and exterior spaces creating a feel that will have you shocked at its lower price point.
*BONUS* Price Drop to $299,00 USD – Modern 2 Bedroom Condo w/ Views
We have a bonus property listing that snuck in at the last minute today with a price drop as well! This fully furnished modern ocean view condo is located within a secured gated community and consists of a one-car garage, laundry facility, and private patio in addition to the main home. Check it out here for more details! 
North Santa Teresa has so much to offer and these properties in particular each have their own sense of unique flair and style. It really shows how much Santa Teresa and the surrounding areas like Mal Pais, Montezuma and Manzanillo are growing when there are noticeable differences in architectural and landscape design styles between homes going up for sale. Much with how Santa Teresa has brought together cuisine from worldly chefs seeking a beach getaway, so too many creative architects and interior designers found this paradise town and made it their own expression. As always, stop into our Playa Carmen offices conveniently located in the heart of town. Just look for the RE/MAX Pura Vida sign you know and trust.
