2. The All-Important Amenities are Right Around the Corner! 

When it comes to purchasing a vacation home anywhere in the world, knowing your future neighborhood and what it has to offer is always important. Botánika happens to be situated on Costa Rica’s South Pacific Coast and is located adjacent to the largest town on the Osa Peninsula, Puerto Jimenez. 

Even though there are only a couple of thousand inhabitants in our little village, the town has so much color! The surrounding area offers countless cultural experiences along with almost unlimited eco-adventures. It’s here at your figure tips. 

Conveniences in Puerto Jimenez include several modern day grocery stores where you will find a great selection of everything from imported goods to local fruits and vegetables. Puerto Jimenez offers banks, pharmacies, medical clinics, exotic restaurants, and colorful cafes. Fresh seafood can be found daily at the resort or along the waterfront in our little village.   

Best of all, getting here could not be easier. In fact, Botánika is only a 5-minute drive to the local Puerto Jimenez airport, and from there you’re just a 45-minute breathtaking flight over Costa Rica’s mountainous central valley and coastline or a six-hour scenic coastal drive from San Jose.

3. A Healthy Lifestyle!

Costa Rica has one of the highest life expectancies in Central America according to the World Health Organization. This Central American nation isn’t that far from the United States geographically, but it is way ahead of it in the longevity of life. The warm weather, beautiful beaches, and general enhanced quality of life are amongst the many reasons why people live longer and healthier lives in this part of the world. And to highlight this point, Costa Rica has one of the five identified ‘Blue Zones’ on our planet. A ‘Blue Zone’ is a place where people live much longer than average. 

For those who dream of living a simpler, low-cost lifestyle, free from many of today’s stresses, Botánika offers the ultimate property investment in Costa Rica. You may relax at the lagoon-style pool, enjoy the air-conditioned gym, or delight in a healthy fruit smoothie at the juice-bar. And with Botanika situated next to our little village of Puerto Jimenez, with beaches nearby, the ability to travel on foot or by bike is truly a stress-free healthier way of living. 

Costa Rica has some of the best and most modern health care systems in the world. Many people travel to Costa Rica to undergo surgeries, dental procedures and other medical treatments, as health professionals are extremely well trained and yet the costs remain low. And only 5 minutes from Botánika there is a private medical clinic. And you’re just a 45-minute plane ride away from world-class luxury hospitals with American trained doctors like Hospital CIMA and Clinica Biblica in San Jose.

4. Low Cost of Living!

One major reason why people choose to relocate or retire in Costa Rica is an affordable lifestyle. While not being the least expensive country in Latin America, Costa Rica has a reputation of a surprisingly low cost of living so your money can directly translate into a higher quality of living.

International Living compared several destinations where people tend to choose retirement living and found in Costa Rica a couple can live a carefree life on as little as $1,800 a month.

While the countries directly north or south of Costa Rica may offer cheaper monthly budgets, you will not find the safety, political stability or quality of people, products or services that Costa Rica has to offer.
