Can Foreigners Purchase Here?

Liberia International Airport is about 45 minutes away by car, making this one of the most accessible beach towns in Guanacaste.

Questions

Buying in Tamarindo

How many properties are available in Tamarindo?

Asking prices currently run from $90,000 to $6,500,000, with a median of $772,000, or about $3,223 per m² of built area. These are asking prices from our own listings. Costa Rica keeps no public register of sold prices, so nobody can tell you honestly what places actually sold for.
What kind of property can I buy in Tamarindo?
The most common listings here are beach house (20), beach land (9), apartment (2), house (1). Use the search to filter by type, budget and bedrooms.
Can foreigners buy property in Costa Rica?
Yes. Foreign buyers hold the same ownership rights as Costa Rican citizens over titled (fee simple) property, with no residency requirement. The main exception is the maritime zone along the coast, where the first 50 metres from the high tide line is public land and the next 150 metres is normally held on concession rather than owned outright, with limits on foreign-held concessions. Always have a Costa Rican lawyer check the title and its registry entry before you commit.
Is beachfront property in Tamarindo freehold?
It depends where the boundary falls. Property set back from the maritime zone is held outright like anywhere else; property inside it is usually a concession from the local municipality, with its own renewal terms and restrictions. We tell you which you are looking at before you view, and your lawyer confirms it against the registry.
