Villas Tranquilas A Costa Rica Vacation Rental Gives Back to Local Manuel Antonio/Quepos Sustainable Development Community this Fall
Livingston, MT (PRWEB) September 10, 2009
As Congress turns their attention away from Mr. Obama’s environmental economic initiatives toward healthcare, one small business remains committed to the initiatives’ ideals and jump starts their mission toward environmental sustainability this fall. Villas Tranquilas, a Costa Rica Vacation Rental in Quepos/Manuel Antonio, joins a growing group of Central Pacific businesses and Costa Rica Hotels dedicated to sustainable Costa Rican Tourism.
Spearheaded in 2001 by local business owners to protect the endangered Mono Titi (squirrel) monkey, the Titi Conservation Alliance focuses conservation efforts on the Rio Naranjo Biological Corridor surrounding internationally famous Manuel Antonio National Park. The Rio Naranjo Biological Corridor’s two known locations for Mono Titi monkeys are separated by development making it extremely difficult for populations to thrive.
Villas Tranquilas sponsorship of the Titi Conservation Alliance gives tourists searching for Costa Rica vacations special insight into such local conservation issues. By educating tourists on local sustainable causes, it raises awareness about Costa Rica’s fragile Manuel Antonio National Park ecosystem and, by extension, the endangered Mono Titi Monkey.
Partnering with local Titi Alliance members, Villas Tranquilas strengthens a commitment to support business-to-business partnerships but also publicly recognizes their own charter to achieve sustainable development status through Costa Rica’s Certification of Sustainability. Villas Tranquilas begins the process of certification this fall with Titi Conservation Alliance guidance.
Through Villas Tranquilas guest donations, a portion of all proceeds will go directly to local education, reforestation, and conservation projects that impact the Manuel Antonio and Quepos Communities. Titi Conservation also offers opportunities for local businesses to help with reforestation of the Rio Naranjo Biological Corridor thus, off-setting carbon emissions and reducing each business’s carbon footprint.
Villas Tranquilas: a six acre rainforest retreat offers Costa Rica accommodations and vacation packages for travel to Manuel Antonio/Quepos Costa Rica.

Costa Rica Power Team To Add New Community To Property Portfolio
San Jose, Costa Rica (PRWEB) December 7, 2007
The Costa Rica Power Team, a unit of San Jose-based Crystal Clear Properties, CCP, announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement with Vision West Development Group to act as the exclusive sales agent for Vision West’s Miramar master planned community located in the Puntarenas province of Costa Rica.
The Miramar master plan calls for the initial sale of 200 prime ocean-view building lots. Most of the lots offer sweeping, panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Nicoya Bay and the Nicoya peninsula. The lots will range in size of from one-half acre to one and a quarter acres. The Miramar property will be a gated community featuring underground utilities and paved natural cobblestone streets. In keeping with Vision West’s and the Costa Rica Power Team’s corporate philosophy, many natural features will be maintained throughout the total anticipated development of 2,000 acres. The projected sale of the initial 200 building lots represents Phase 1 of a planned four-phase community. The entire project encompasses the development of single-family homes, condominiums, and commercial properties and the maintenance of vast areas of open space. Total project build out is anticipated to take up to seven years.
“Our intent is to work with the natural contours and vegetation of the land. This site is one of a kind. It features one of the most spectacular view sheds on the entire Central Pacific coast and is one of the most beautiful areas of the country. We intend to respect that heritage,” Costa Rica Power Team President Jason LaFlesch said.
Costa Rica Power Team Vice President of Operations Tim Kopatich who said, “All of our properties are developed with respect for the environment, echoed this sentiment. Our hallmark is to protect the natural wonders of this beautiful country.”
The properties will be priced from $ 30,000 to $ 120,000 according to Bill Deegan, Costa Rica Power Team Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Due to our competitive pricing strategy on Miramar along with the property’s exceptional features we expect that sales will be brisk. We anticipate a fast sell out,” Mr. Deegan said. Sales are anticipated to commence in February 2008.
The Costa Rica Power Team is the largest real estate consulting firm in Costa Rica. It recently closed out Phase 1 of its 262 single family Costa Real master planned community in Playa Bejuco.

Costa Rican Website is Launched for the German Community
San Jose, Costa Rica (PRWEB) February 10, 2009
Costa Rica Aktuell will be posting daily articles in the German language about Costa Rica hotels, tourist attractions, National Parks, tour operators, special events and celebrations among others.
Costa Rica Aktuell was created in order to provide the German speaking population an alternative to keeping informed with what Costa Rica has to offer as a tourism destination. However, the website will occasionally include information regarding real estate, development projects, politics and other information of interest.
“Costa Rica has rapidly positioned itself within the top visited countries among the North American and European tourists. The majority of information and industry websites are targeted towards the English and Spanish Speaking population leaving other major languages out of the equation. With Costa Rica Aktuell we want to start closing that gap and hopefully open the Costa Rican market to a relatively untapped market”, said Melvin Pereira, Costa Rican Aktuell’s creator.
Visitors to the Costa Rica Aktuell website are encouraged to check back regularly in order to keep up to date with the advances and new developments within the tourism industry in Costa Rica.
Articles are updating daily by Simone Post who has come to Costa Rica from the town of Wilhelmshaven, Germany.
Costa Rica Aktuell is a privately owned website that displays unique content presented in an informative approach. The Costa Rica Aktuell website is intended to be a source of daily information for travelers, travel agents, investors, students and people seeking to learn about Costa Rica.

Hoboken, NJ (PRWEB) July 26, 2006
Kubera Venture Capital Group, LLC, a privately held real estate investment and development firm, today announced it has broken ground on a new 100-unit residential community, Jade Azul, in the popular beach town of Nosara, Costa Rica. Jade Azul will be a 27-acre gated community, offering residents a secluded lifestyle in a biologically diverse setting.
Kubera Venture Capital Group will build approximately 20 single-family villas and 80 condominiums on the site. The first phase of 10 villa units is now under construction and available for pre-sale. Each unit will feature unique Balinese-inspired architecture with floor-to-ceiling windows, vaulted ceilings, sunken bathtubs, expansive outdoor terraces with jungle and mountain views, along with satellite television and high-speed internet access. There will also be a commercial center conveniently located on-site, with shops and restaurants for Jade Azul residents.
There are two available floor plans (a 1-story model and a 2-story model), both with 2-bedrooms and 2-baths (the 2-story has an additional powder room). Each of the 20 villas will offer 1,000 square feet of indoor living space on a private ¼ acre lot. They will also feature up to an additional 500 square feet of outdoor terraces, allowing homeowners to fully immerse themselves in the tropical surroundings. Pre-construction pricing starts at $ 150,000 for 1-story villas and $ 165,000 for 2-story villas. Optional upgrades, such as swimming pools, kitchen and landscaping packages, and furnishings are available at additional cost.
Mr. Kush Wadhwa, Managing Partner of Kubera Venture Capital Group, stated, “We are very excited about the groundbreaking of the Jade Azul development. Nosara continues to be an extraordinary place to vacation and to live, offering something for both the restful traveler and adventure seeker alike. We are thrilled to be able to offer a development with such luxury at what is obviously a very attractive price point.”
The second phase, the Condominiums at Jade Azul are expected to be released for pre-sale in early 2007, with architectural features similar to the villas. The condominiums will be built on the higher elevations of the property, and will offer 1,200-1,500 square feet of indoor living space, along with expansive outdoor terraces. The majority of these units will have 180-degree ocean views. The villas and condominiums will be built with ecological integrity; a full 50% of the property will be reserved as “green space” to maintain the jungle habitat. Low-impact walking and hiking trails will be added for residents to experience the wildlife and tropical environment.
