Guanavista Changing The Ostional Landscape

For years, Nosara has been Guanacaste’s hub for bohemian, nomadic, meditative, rustic and more recently, luxury, even bougeee energy and expectation. It has weathered COVID, recession — US and Costa Rica, tourism flight, rising costs, climate spankings and epic rains. Nosara is and remains its exclusive paradise for anyone and everyone who wants a peaceful escape from the not so peaceful world outside.

Most people who live full-time, part-time or vacation often, thoughts of crossing into Ostional seemed impossible, literally until bridges were installed and unnecessary, given all that Nosara has to offer. Well, the physical barriers have been removed. Roads are improved. Bridges are fast and easy. Tico restaurants are popping up thanks to communities like Black Beauty and the new Guanavista, a promising custom-build community complete with amenities — club house, wellness, yoga platform for its eventual 50+ homes nestled into the moutain. Its high price points will change the financial landscape of Ostional as it asks 50-300% higher for lot prices.

Additionally, it forecasts rental income for four bedroom homes at $287,000 annually which if accomplished would have incredible economic impacts on Ostional, San Juanillo, Marbella and of course, Nosara. Of course, for those looking for more affordable housing today, Ostional has a range of options that can be found at real estate sites like Blue Zone Homes, surfingnosara.com and others.
