Are you ready to trade the daily grind for golden sunsets, or looking to diversify your portfolio with high-yield tropical assets?
Costa Rica remains the premier destination for North American and European expats, offering a stable democracy, top-tier healthcare, and fee-simple property ownership for foreigners. But knowing where to buy is the key to a successful investment.
At Costa Rica Retirement Vacation Properties, we have curated a selection of elite opportunities in two distinct markets: the vibrant, amenity-rich Jaco Beach and the tranquil, pristine shores of Playa Bejuco.
Whether you are seeking a high-ROI vacation rental or a peaceful retirement sanctuary, discover your perfect match below.
🌴 Jaco Beach: The Pulse of the Pacific
Best for: Investors seeking rental income, active retirees, and those who want “walk-to-everything” convenience.
Jaco is the most developed beach town in the Central Pacific. Just 90 minutes from San José International Airport, it offers world-class dining, nightlife, and infrastructure. Properties here are not just homes; they are income-generating powerhouses.
1. Solea Jaco Oceanfront Condominium
The Status Symbol | New Construction
Solea is not just a condo; it is the tallest oceanfront tower in Jaco. It offers what few others can: 100% ocean views from every single unit.
-
Why it sells: This is for the buyer who refuses to compromise. With state-of-the-art amenities including infinity pools, a fitness center, and co-working spaces, Solea is designed for the modern “digital nomad” and luxury traveler.
-
The ROI Factor: Brand new construction commands premium nightly rates on platforms like Airbnb and VRBO.
2. The Coastal Point Jaco
Resort-Style Living | Oceanfront
Located on the prestigious north end of Jaco, The Coastal Point brings the “all-inclusive resort” feel to private ownership.
-
Why it sells: The amenities here are unmatched—think rooftop lounges, pickleball courts, and extensive pool areas. It creates a community feel that keeps renters returning year after year.
-
Perfect for: Families and investors looking for a “hands-off” vacation rental property that practically markets itself.
3. Jaco Beach Townhouse in Gated Community
Family Living | Security & Space
Not everyone wants a high-rise. This stunning townhouse is located in Ciudad del Mar, one of Jaco’s most sought-after gated communities.
-
Why it sells: You get the safety of a 24/7 guarded community with low HOA fees and incredible common areas (mini-golf, lap pools, tennis courts). It is a rare find: a spacious home with a private backyard, yet walking distance to the sand.
-
Perfect for: Full-time expats or families who want a secure, community-focused environment.
🌊 Playa Bejuco: The Tranquil Escape
Best for: Retirees seeking peace, nature lovers, and investors looking for long-term appreciation in growing markets.
Located just 20 minutes south of Jaco, Bejuco is famous for its Blue Flag certified clean beach and relaxed atmosphere. It is where you go to hear the birds, not the nightlife.
4. 84 Costa del Sol
Turn-Key Community Living
Located in the esteemed Costa del Sol community, this 2-bedroom home offers the perfect balance of privacy and social connection.
-
Why it sells: Costa del Sol is legendary among expats for its well-maintained grounds and massive community pools. This specific unit features a garage (a rare bonus) and beautiful custom murals, making it feel like a true tropical home rather than just a rental unit.
-
The Lifestyle: Walk to the beach in minutes, play tennis in the morning, and enjoy a BBQ on your patio at sunset.
5. Bejuco Contemporary Coastal Residence
Modern Elegance | Private Oasis
If you prefer modern architecture over traditional colonial styles, this contemporary residence is your answer.
