Nicoya canton, Guanacaste

Nosara

Nosara: 2 to 2.5 hours from LIR airport with an unpaved final stretch and a documented limit on aqueduct capacity. What is proven and what we verify.

Character of the area

Nosara is about a hundred kilometres from the airport and two to two and a half hours away; the last tens of kilometres run on unpaved road. That has a direct effect on how furniture, tradespeople and rainy-season trips reach the area, and it should show up in an operating budget.

Water is the most serious documented constraint here: AyA memorandum GSD-UEN-GAR-2024-01121 of 19 March 2024 states that the Playa Nosara aqueduct has no technical feasibility for granting new connections, because it lacks sufficient hydrological capacity and assigned flow. Every unit must prove where its water comes from, or we do not recommend reserving it.

What we offer here

The catalogue holds the design investment collection with 24 one-bedroom apartments of 52.3 m². We publish publicly only those units whose price and availability the developer confirms in writing; the rest stay in an internal queue marked as pending verification.

One-bedroom apartments, 52.3 m², from USD 303,450 per the May 2026 price list
Parking of 24 spaces plus 6 for visitors per the project material
We treat May 2026 prices as indicative and confirm them before any reservation

Water: a documented limit

In its March 2024 memorandum AyA describes a system with no reserve for new demand. For an investor that means a concrete test: is there written confirmation of a water source for this unit, or a private abstraction concession? Without it, the price of the apartment is only half the information.

Rentals and operations

Nosara has strong holiday demand and Guiones beach carries the Blue Flag label, but without our own data we do not quote occupancy or yield. For every unit we verify who provides management and cleaning, what the fees are, and whether the project permits short-term rental at all.
