and Europeans
alike many of the amenities and
common resources
that are standard "back
home",
so real estate is very popular
and it is
an area that many foreigners
choose to settle
into when purchasing real estate
in Costa
Rica. Escazu is a mix of tropical
colonial
life and modern life of developed
countries.

Real Estate in Escazú is divided
into 3 main
areas:
· San Rafael is where it all happens. It's located in
the lower part of Escazú. The main street
caters to several restaurants (from typical
Costarican places to Tony Roma's and McDonald's).
· San Antonio is the quiet area of Escazú. It's located
on the mountain top, but it's only a couple
of minutes from the rest of Escazú. This
area is not as developed as the other areas.
The rural is mixed with the city. You'll
find mansions with shacks as their neighbors.
Most foreigners like living here because
of the dynamite views that most properties
have.

Filled with strip malls, hotels, the famous
Multiplaza shopping mall, the Cima hospital,
the PriceSmart (Costco in U.S.) supermarket

residential areas offering new homes starting
at the $100,000 all the way up to the million
dollar price range.
