The bridge from nature to luxury lifestyle

Discovering this idyllic place, we find ourselves filled with a yearning to linger here, where time stands still

and beauty overwhelms.

Why Villas Del Puente?

Realizing the true essence of the opportunity at Villas del Puente requires some insight into Costa Rica as a

destination, Manuel Antonio as its most sought after destination and Villas del Puente as a uniquely placed

offering in what is arguably Central America’s most attractive destination.

With only 48 select units, the Ecologica team wants members of the Villas del Puente community who share our

passion for Costa Rica, Manuel Antonio and the project.

Why Costa Rica?

Costa Rica is an idyllic paradise which offers a magical and unique combination of characteristics which make it unlike any other place on earth. These are just a few of the main reasons why Costa Rica has become one of the world’s

most sought after destinations.

- Stunning Natural Beauty hosting nearly 6% of the world’s biodiversity.- A Peace loving populace and stable government.- Affordable health care and high quality of life.- A strong economy and highly educated work force.- Growing hub for international business.- Unique location which is exotic, safe and accessible.

Costa Rica’s natural beauty and wildlife

It covers 0.03% of the planet’s surface and has the privilege to be habitat of 6% of the world biodiversity.

25.6% of its territory is protected under different conservation methods.

Stable government, peaceful and educated populace

Unlike many other tropical destinations, Costa Rica has a tremendously stable government and economy allowing investors to enjoy the spectacular beauty without sacrificing security and stability.

1. Costa Rica has enjoyed a Democratic Republic Government for 100 years and in 1949 chose to abolish their military opting to use those funds to provide health care and education to all of its citizens. Costa Rica is known as the “Switzerland of the Americas.”

2. Health care is provided for everyone. 3. The education system of Costa Rica is ranked 40th in the world.4. Costa Rica has one of the highest literacy rates in the American Continent (95.8%) 5. The World Bank Development Indicators recently rated Costa Rica among the top two

countries in all of Central and South America in terms of Political Stability.6. Costa Rica, rising education levels also fostered impressive gender equality so that it

ranks higher than the United States in the World Economic Forum gender gap index.

Quality of Life and Healthcare

1. Universal health care is provided for all residents in Costa Rica and there are also fantastic and very affordable private hospitals.

2. Costa Rica has been rated the Happiest Place to live in the entire world by the WHI and HPI.

3. The World Health Organization ranked Costa Rica's health system as one of the top three Latin America countries,

ranked even higher than United States and New Zealand. 4. The World Bank ranked Costa Rica to have the highest life expectancy, at 78.7 years, among all countries in Latin America. This is equivalent to the level in Canada

and higher than the United States by a year. 5. The Environmental Performance Index, a collaboration of Yale and Columbia

Universities, ranks Costa Rica at No. 3 in the world, the best outside Europe.6. According to Promed (the Council for the Promotion of Medicine in Costa Rica),

there were approximately 22,000 US citizens who visited Costa Rica in 2008 for medical procedures, mostly baby boomers or people aged over 50 who are seeking quality medical services including dental, surgical and other medical packages at very affordable rates.

7. Costa Rica is home to one of only 5 recognized blue zones on the planet. (Blue zones are areas where life expectancy surpases 100 years on average!)

Private hospitals in Costa Rica

There are currently three JCI-accredited hospitals in Costa Rica and all are located in San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica.

1. Hospital CIMA - San Jose, Costa Rica Accredited by the JCI on May 2008. CIMA is also certified by the ISO and was the first hospital that was certified for Quality Processes by the Ministry of Health in Costa Rica.

2. Hospital Clinica Biblica - San Jose, Costa Rica Accredited by the JCI on October 2007. It was built in 1929 by American missionaries and has grown into a high-quality medical facility with a capacity of 120 inpatients and 5000 outpatients per day. They have a dedicated Medical Tourism department with English and Spanish fluent staff and employees.

3. Hospital La Catolica - San Jose, Costa Rica Accredited by the JCI on June 2009. The hospital recently built new infrastructures on top of its newly remodeled facilities which boast of its own high class hotel, the La Posada El Convento, located within the confines of the medical facilities.

Why Manuel Antonio?

Manuel Antonio

More than just natural beauty… A unique marketplace and the ideal investment environment

Manuel Antonio National Park, the second most visited in the country insures a consistent tourist market bringing both renters and future investors to the area.

Supply and Demand. A finite amount of developable area with strident environmental restrictions ensuring not only the long term sustainability of the natural setting, but also the integrity and value of your investment.

Marina Pez Vela: Currently completing its first phase of construction, this will be Central America’s

largest full service Marina hosting hundreds of millions of dollars in yachts as their home base and attractive huge investment to the area.

Authenticity. Unlike the mega resorts of Guanacaste, this area provides the natural beauty and authenticity of a real community here long before tourism.

Infrastructure. From high speed internet, cable television, new roads, and bridges, this area is one of the most accessible and connected areas in the country- More than 10 daily flights on two airlines with plans for an local airport extension providing

private jet capacity in the next 18 months- New highway from San Jose will reduce driving time from the international airport to 2 hours.
