Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
My wife and I first discovered the beauty and freindly relaxed culture of Costa Rica in 2004. We rented many condos and homes nearby and then happened to find Hermosa Palms and rent in this community. Our intention was to build elswhere, but the specatular beach life and community of Hermosa Palms quickly changed our minds. Long walks on a basically empty beach other than a few surfers enjoying themselves, offered more than we could ever have dreamed for. When you need ammenities or a night out for dining its at your fingertips. No long drives just to get the basics. Your precious vacation time is left for what you want to do. Relax and enjoy your self.
