Escazu truly offers investors, families, retirees and businesses the perfect setting for success and happiness. Escazu has become the most sought after neighborhoods in the outskirts of San Jose for both our Costa Rican clientele, as well as our foreign investors. The reasons are abundant and varied depending on the investment criteria of each individual, family or business. However, the common influences that drive clients into this vibrant Western suburb are convenience, access to the best shopping, top rated bilingual schools, world class medical facilities, restaurants and corporate offices.
Central Park
The area's most exclusive vertical community, situated in the heart of the most exclusive area of Escazu, with strategic access in and out of the community and the city, and coveted walking access directly to Avenida Escazu, allowing residents the ability to walk to the movies, their favorite international restaurants, bakeries and coffee shops and speaking of shops, exclusive retail. All of this at your feet, while being able to retreat back into one of the most exclusive and secure residential communities in the area, which boasts a "central park," in the middle of the community, with cascading ponds and walking trails.
Cerro Alto
For many, Cerro Alto is the most exclusive residential community in Escazu. Cerro Alto boasts a privileged location with convenient access to the area's best shops, restaurants, schools, banks and commercial districts, while still providing a very peaceful, and exclusive residential getaway. Located less than 1/2 mile from Ruta 27, providing easy access to both Escazu, Santa Ana and San Jose, as well as almost immediate access to Multiplaza, Distrito 4, and office parks such as Plaza Roble, Meridiano and Escazu Corporate Center, Cerro Alto has consolidated itself as the address to be in Escazu.
Cerro Real
Located on a hillside directly on the border of Escazu and Santa Ana, Cerro Real is perhaps the lest known of the two adjacent gated communities (Cerro Alto & Cerro Real). Nevertheless, the lack of notoriety is one of its assets, not weaknesses. Cerro Real is a gated community boasting impressive estate homes that offer panoramic views either towards the city of San Jose and its surrounding mountains, or to the expansive valley of Santa Ana. Residents who live here enjoy the convenient location, with access either from Santa Ana via the old road, or Escazu via multiple access points.
Cortijo Los Laureles
Cortijo was designed taking into consideration the most demanding residents, seeking a convenient location, combined with the services and amenities of a 5 star hotel. Upon entering the building, residents and guests are greeted by a bellman as well as the option for valet parking. Entering the elegant lobby and reception area, there is a full service concierge, as well as one door leading to the lounge and bar areas, and another leading into the immaculate pool/courtyard area, boasting one of the largest residential swimming pools, as well as ample and luxurious deck seating, pool bar, as well as the gym.

The location is second to none with dual entrances for owners, and one entrance for visitors, and the locations places its residents in the area's finest restaurants, shops, commercial districts and international schools in minutes.
Lagomar
Conveniently located less than 10 minutes to Multiplaza, international restaurants, bilingual schools, and all of the area's finest conveniences, this community offers the perfect address for families looking to be close to it all, while enjoying the privacy of a very subdued, low profile gated community. Lagomar is less likely a household name, however, this is not by fault, but rather by design. The developers and its current residents have chosen not to have a sign on the entrance, nor do they advertise the name of the community. This community is an exclusive, private community of just 18 homes.
Monteplata
An unparalleled location, combined with what is often considered the standard for luxury in a highrise residential development in Escazu has distinguished Monte Plata as one of the premiere addresses in Costa Rica. Monte Plata sits in the priveledged neighborhood of Jaboncillos, Escazu, less than 1 mile from the Paco Commercial Center, World Gym, and minutes from Multiplaza, the US Ambassadors residence and all of the conveniences of Escazu. Due to the strategic location, even first floor residences boast mesmerizing views of the city of San Jose, and its surrounding mountains.
Ribera Laureles
Location. Exclusivity. Nature. Convenience. Sometimes there is just enough room for so many catch phrases and Ribera Laureles encompasses each of these distinct qualities. Situated at the end of a dead end, on a quiet residential street in Los Laureles, this community was carefully designed to provide its few residents with a sense of exclusivity, with only 14 single family homes, and 13 apartments. As the property is the last on the street, there is no through traffic and therefore, the setting is extremely quiet and peaceful, and furthermore, backs up to a green zone, which sits just behind the homes.
Valle de Tamarindo
After entering the tight security at the entrance, residents and guests will enjoy underground parking (and covered for guests), before entering an expansive common area lobby, which overlooks the pool, tennis court, gym and clubhouse. Valle de Tamarindo is also one of the few buildings with direct elevator to residence access both for security and exclusivity. The residences were each carefully designed to take advantage of the unobstructed views, and a class and sensible design divides social areas of the residence from the private areas of the home, including multiple balconies to enjoy the views.
Viva Residences
Situated in just over 2 acres of land steps from World Gym, Centro Comercial Paco, Chez Christophe and dozens of the area’;finest restaurants, shops and business centers, Viva Residences offers the ideal address for executives, young couples, or those just looking for the convenience of having the world at their doorsteps. While in the hear of it all, the unique layout and entrance, sets the 34 apartments back from the main road, providing an uncanny sense of privacy at the base of the mountains of Escazu. There are 6 floor plans to choose from, and common areas include walking trail, pool, gym, and clubhouse.
Acropolis
Acropolis, by definition is a hilltop containing the most splendid temples and treasuries. Well, not far from its true meaning, this is one of the most exclusive residential communities in Escazu. Situated at the end of an assuming, upper class residential street, you will find the gated entrance to Acropolis. Currently home to an exclusive residential apartment building, and future home to additional apartments, as well as exclusive, estate homesites, Acropolis boasts the perfect combination of stunning mountain climate and fresh air, privacy, exclusivity with incomparable convenience and breathtaking views.
