I have lived in Costa Rica for 20 years, and here in Monteverde for 10 years, and am continually amazed by how beautiful the forest and the views are, and how strong the sense of community is among our neighbors.
Although it is known for its amazing cloud forest, it is not nearly as rainy as everyone thinks! The temperatures are like an eternal spring, around 25º (77ºF) during the day, and 18º (64ºF) at night, perfect for a good nights´sleep.
There are always visiting scientists offering fascinating talks and workshops, a vibrant music scene with live music many nights of the week, art classes of all types, sports activities from football to frisbee, and numerous activities for kids including tree climbing! The mix of cultural offerings blends the traditional farming life with the influx of tourism and scientific research. It is not something you find in many places in Costa Rica!
Here are just some of the reasons why Monteverde is a beautiful place to live:
- Beautiful Nature and Unique Biodiversity
- Strong Community
- Peaceful and Tranquil Environment
- Outdoor Activities
- Cultural Richness
- Educational Opportunities including two private schools and an interchange with visiting scientists and researchers
Come for a visit, and stay to raise your family or engage in the cultural richness of this tight-knit, beautiful, and enriching community! Let me know how I can help you find the perfect place for your new home! I am bilingual and have 20 years of experience living in Costa Rica and learning how to navigate the (sometimes confusing!) systems. I am also a member of the Costa Rican Board of Real Estate Agents, a registered Realtor with the National Association of Realtors, and a Certified International Property Specialist. And most importantly, I am here to welcome you to Monteverde!
