Real estate property hotspots
Jaco
Jaco
Jaco is famous for its wild nights and epic surf. The town lies in a wide, grey-sand bay. In the busier north end the streets are a patchwork of souvenir stands, internet cafes, night-clubs and bars with a line of hotels along the beach front. Further south, the ambience is quieter and some exclusive resorts have set up.
The real estate staple in Jaco is beach front and ocean view condos with an every growing number of projects dotted along the bay. Hotel brands including Ramada, Sonesta and Wyndham have released real estate offerings for sale. Just north at Herradura beach lies the Los Sueños Marriott resort complex with full-service marina and golf course by Ted Robinson.

If you don't like crowds and noise, I'd give Jaco a miss from a lifestyle perspective. Every time I pass through Jaco there seem to be more bars, nightclubs, souvenir stands along the main drag and all the noise that goes along with them. I don't surf so am perhaps missing the point of Jaco.

November 2008 – Is Latin America really a property hotspot?
If ever there was a time to invest in an exotic home in Latin America, this is it - or so the sales pitch would have it.
