Santa Ana, Costa Rica: Own a home in a great location!


Santa Ana, safe and peaceful neighborhood

Santa Ana is so peaceful that it would seem a world away from San José, but it is only some 20 minutes away by car. Less than 5 minutes away are Multiplaza, Hotel Courtyard Marriott, Hotel Real Intercontinental, Hospital CIMA, and several prestigious schools. In the immediate vicinity you shall find FORUM, the largest office park in the country, and many of the newest and most elegant shopping centers. The Juan Santamaría Airport in Alajuela is closer to Santa Ana than to San José, and the new projected highway to the beaches passes right beside Santa Ana - so you will be only 45 minutes away from the coast once the highway gets built. More development is on the way in this vigorous growth area: at least another large shopping center and office park are still in the blueprint stages.

Santa Ana, excellent climate

And Santa Ana has a truly enjoyable climate, sunnier and drier than the rest of the Central Valley. As you can see from the photograph above, Santa Ana has more trees and vegetation than everywhere in the city.

Santa Ana, area of high capital appreciation

The reasons for Santa Ana's growth in value, apart from its scenic beauty, excellent climate, and strategic location, is its efficient city government. The Municipalidad de Santa Ana has and enforces rules related to zoning, garbage disposal, water treatment, and building codes more firmly than other city government in Costa Rica. This means that despite becoming fashionable and somewhat more populated, Santa Ana will never feel crowded or get polluted. Zoning laws prohibit factories inside neighborhoods (sadly common elsewhere in Costa Rica). Waste water treatment plants have been mandatory for all new constructions since 1999. There are also limits on the percentage of land that can be covered by construction on all areas of Santa Ana. Building height cannot exceed 10 meters (30 feet). This effectively limits the amount of people living in a given area.

Santa Ana, safe and timely investment

With regards to your investment, it means a greater likelihood of it retaining or increasing its value over time - during the last two years, the value of ready-to-build land in some neighborhoods of Santa Ana has risen 30% in each of those years. Unfortunately there is not an unlimited supply of such land, so we invite you to come to our development and choose a lot.
