To further enhance the opportunity of this pristine hideaway, CocoMar is pleased to announce the collaboration of the Ramada Resorts International Hotel Group with CocoMar for the hotel operations of these Oceanside jewels. Costa Rica has had an estimated annual appreciation of land value over the past five years of 35% on average, making Costa Rica Real Estate a worldwide investment phenomenon. Combine these two winning facts with the tranquility of the Pura Vida lifestyle that Costa Rica and specifically Palo Seco, Paradise Island offers, and there is a very compelling reason to enjoy the ownership benefits of The Ramada CocoMar Beach Resort. OVERVIEW: The Ramada Cocomar Beach Resort has been designed as an exclusive hideaway and the first resort of its kind on the Central Coast. Located just over two hours from the Juan Santamaria Airport, this project sets an incredibly high standard for the future of Isla Palo Seco. This condo hotel resort is currently planned to have eight traditional tropical style villas housing 34 condos with lock-offs, which will equate to 72 hotel keys. These condo suites will total four, three bedroom and thirty, two bedroom in the current plans. Each villa will contain four to six luxuriously furnished and fully equipped condominiums. The resort will operate and manage the condo/hotel units for the owners and will subsequently split the proceeds in a 60/40 manner. The project spans 110 meters of beachfront on over 12,000 square meters of land. Phase 1 of the project consists of three villas totaling 14 condos, 11 of which are pre-sold. The offering price would include all current plans, a fully paid construction contract, ownership of all of the land mentioned, including all accounts receivable. The resort makes for a great investment as it allows the purchaser to recoup the initial investment from the selling of the condominiums, while still owning the resort and international flag hotel operations, which will produce a reliable cash flow - a true turnkey investment. If desired, the original condo buyers could be bought out and the Resort 100% corporately owned and expanded. The Resort owners would entertain a possible Joint Venture Partnership as an alternative to a complete buy out.

A stable socio-political and economic environment, combined with a highly educated labor force, has attracted a large number of multinational firms to invest directly in the country. Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has increased 4.1% during the past two years, mainly driven by manufacturing, tourism and the service sectors, such as transportation, telecommunications and agriculture. Tourism: Tourism has been the main source of growth in Costa Rica for the past 20 years. Leading brands, such as Four Seasons, St Regis, Crown Plaza, Hyatt and Marriott, have chosen Costa Rica for its great potential to attract foreign investment. The country receives between1.8 to 2 million tourists annually, which generate $1.6 billions in earnings. One of the strong reasons Ramada Cocomar Beach Resort makes sense is because of the dramatic increase in tourism compared to the amount of hotel rooms available to them. Location: Ramada Cocomar Beach Resort is located on an Island, one side facing the sea and the other backed with a fresh water estuary. This estuary, as well as the area surrounding it, are teaming with wild life and are considered as a Garden of Eden within Costa Rica. The resort is located 5 km from a town of 20,000 people with grocery and necessary items and a medical clinic and 20 minutes from a small airport and fully equipped hospital. It is just over two hours from San Jose, 30 minutes from the town of Jaco, which is the fastest growing resort town in the country, and 25 minutes from Manual Antonio Park, the number one tourist destination in the country. Maritime Zone: This project is a concession land within the Maritime Zone, which means that it is renewed every 20 years. It is a lease hold and any land, excluding towns and cities, is generally considered Maritime Zone within Costa Rica. Environmental Standards: The Ramada Cocomar Beach Resort will operate beyond the country's environmental standards by using a complete sewage treatment plant, waste recycling, chemical and salt-free swimming pools, as well as using organic cleaning products. Environmental building products have been chosen when available, including its red tile roofing that is fabricated from the recycled plastic bags used on the banana plantations throughout the country of Costa Rica. The Resort will include an abundance of beautiful tropical gardens, thus recreating a natural environment for the local birds, monkeys and animals on the island. Local organic foods and drinks will be offered to its concerned owners and clientele. Although air conditioning is available in all suites, the Resort is engineered to maximize the naturally cooling Pacific Ocean breezes, aided by adjustable speed tropical ceiling fans, both rendering a pleasurable and comfortable environment. Be part of the future of Costa Rica! PRICE: $3,500,000 VIEW THE YouTube video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGnMpxsPd_w

New Ocean-view Community Ready for Investors

Full Description: Great Opportunity for Investors! Ocean view residential community, ready to go! $350,000--possibly negotiable A new ocean-view project of 7 lots has recently become available in San Ramon. Perfect for investors not wanting to put a lot of time and effort into real estate development. This project includes fully segregated and titled lots, water service to each lot and electricity. Lots range in size from 2100 square meters or .5 acres, to over 16,000 square meters or over 4 acres. Situated on an active coffee farm, residents will live in the real Costa Rica, but not isolated. The development also features many fruit trees including oranges, limes, tangerines, bananas and plantains. The land is largely rolling hills directly facing the ocean with home sites strategically nestled within coffee and fruit trees. Located just five minutes from downtown San Ramon, this project is in an area being recognized as a foreign enclave, but providing much natural beauty and stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, Nicoya Peninsula, Puntarenas, and various islands. The sunsets over the Nicoya Peninsula are spectacular as are the nighttime lights of Puntarenas. During holidays, you'll be able to see numerous fireworks shows in the many towns surrounding Puntarenas. San Ramon has a very temperate climate at about 3200 feet above sea level. The temperature averages about 78 degrees year round and dips down to about 68 degrees at night. Due to its location and rains, the area stays green throughout the year. The seller's Costa Rican partner, who was the first person here to receive USDA organic certification for his coffee and vegetable farms, can maintain the project for the new owners including cultivating and picking the coffee, repairing internal roads as needed and keeping the project tidy. He is currently converting this community to organic. Perfect for retirees, San Ramon offers all services including a large hospital, several clinics, a shopping mall with three-screen movie theater, many restaurants, swimming and other recreational facilities, and the largest branch of the University of Costa Rica outside of San Jose. The town also offers several museums and high-speed Internet is available throughout the area. It is about 40 minutes to the Pacific Coast and 45 minutes to the main international airport (SJO) near San Jose. At $6.31 per square meter, this project is a real steal AND all of the work has already been completed by the current owners. In this area lots tend to retail in the range of $13 per square meter to $18 per square meter. In the past three years, about 35 lots have been sold in this up and coming area. Please contact us for additional information and to schedule a time to see this stunning residential community.
