Welcome to Las Catalinas, a newly constructed beach town nestled along the golden coast of Guanacaste in Costa Rica. Our purpose is to create a vibrant community focused on a balanced lifestyle of health, sustainability, fun, and fulfillment.
Las Catalinas consists of homes, shops, restaurants, small hotels and inns, plazas, parks, and recreational facilities. We have arranged these elements to create a series of wonderful, walkable public spaces interwoven with our breathtaking natural surroundings. Architecture is adapted for outdoor living. Motorized vehicles are refreshingly absent.
One side of our town is embraced by over 1,000 acres of tropical dry forest, with spectacular hills and valleys that afford extensive hiking, trail running, and mountain biking. On the other, you'll find two of Costa Rica's finest beaches offering great swimming, stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking, boogie-boarding, and snorkeling.
We believe that Las Catalinas is one of the most important and beautiful new towns in the world. We extend a warm invitation to personally experience the charm of our walkable tropical village for yourself.

Las Catalinas started with a vision—a new vision of the “the good life.” This life is one of ecological responsibility and sustainability, of social cohesion and personal connection. Las Catalinas was created to promote a healthy way of living, in which we nurture our physical selves and are physically active, and in which we celebrate and revel in the beauty of nature. As
it turns out, this way of living is intimately dependent on the design and function of where we live. Las Catalinas was conceived and constructed to realize this idea.
“Residents and visitors live a stone’s throw from ocean-view restaurants, an outdoor adventure outfitter, an upscale grocery with a wine cellar, a day spa and clothing and furniture shops.”
— The New York Times
