One of Costa Rica’s best kept secrets, but the word is out.
Playa Avellanas has long been one of Costa Rica’s best kept secrets, but the word is out. Today, it has become one of the most desirable destinations within Costa Rica real estate, growing steadily while maintaining its tranquil atmosphere away from busier hotspots like nearby Tamarindo. Located in Guanacaste’s dry tropical forest and lined with uniquely shaped trees and meandering branches, Playa Avellanas is a remarkable coastal destination where visitors can cross a wooden bridge over a mangrove and immerse themselves in the solitude of nature.
While it is best known for its incredible surf, Avellanas Beach is also renowned for its breathtaking beauty. Its white sand and turquoise waters remind visitors just how lucky they are to be in this paradise on Earth. The tree lined beach provides plenty of shade perfect for laying out a blanket or setting up a hammock for a mid afternoon nap after a morning of surfing Avellanas’ world class waves. For those seeking Tamarindo real estate surrounded by natural beauty and the laid back elegance of Guanacaste’s coast, Avellanas offers one of the most exclusive and peaceful settings in Costa Rica.
There is no town center in Avellanas, which helps the beach feel secluded and relaxing. However, recent growth has brought trendy new shops and restaurants to Avellanas. While Lola’s is still the quintessential spot for a delicious sunset dinner, there are plenty of opportunities for other South American fare at La Esquina, a community space with great food options, cultural events, and even some tasty gelato. Because Avellanas is growing, there are golden opportunities for prime real estate. For people looking for properties that are a little more out of the way, Avellanas is sure to please. It is only 30 minutes from Tamarindo and a little over an hour to the Guanacaste International Airport, which means that homes in Avellanas provide privacy and relaxation while never being too far from all the niceties that busier spots might impart. For the best of both worlds, be sure to check out Playa Avellanas and all it has to offer.
