Each year, Steamboat Springs locals head to the beach for either a post- or pre-winter getaway, and one of the favorite destinations is Costa Rica. This month, we partnered with Costa Rica Sotheby’s International Realty, to share with you a handful of their featured properties offered for sale. If you have fantasized about having your home in the jungle, the mountains, or on the beach, check out these stunning homes, where you can live “pura vida.”
The report “Looking at the world through the eyes of expatriates 2017”, highlights Costa Rica as the second world favorite place for people who are looking for properties outside their country. Also, it shows us one of the reasons foreigners choose to live in Costa Rica: “It offers the freedom to live a peaceful and happy life surrounded by friendly people”.
The easy adaptation to a new culture, the facility to make friends, the high quality of life indexes and the favorable conditions to establish a family are other important advantages.

Costa Rica has no army since 1948, which has allowed the Government to invest more in environmental protection (about 26% of the territory is dedicated to nature reserves, national parks, and other protected areas) and education, a free and compulsory right.
Besides educated, Costa Rican inhabitants are very hospitable. As we use to say are very “pura vida”, which is reflected not only in their personality but also in their everyday language, culture and even their way of seeing life – relaxed, calm and without much hurries and worries.
