Area guide

Investing and living in Las Catalinas

Las Catalinas is a small beach town in northern Guanacaste, between Playa Danta and Playa Dantita, about twenty minutes from Playa Flamingo and roughly an hour from Liberia airport. Its centre is car-free: vehicles stay at the entrance. It is our second-largest area, with close to a hundred properties.

What we have there

As of October 2026: 43 condos and townhomes, from $380,000 to $5.9 million (median $975,000), mostly in the Montaña and Lantana developments, and 54 lots of 127 to 1,005 m², from $85,000 to just over $1 million (median $242,500). Most condos have two bedrooms.

What to read before you buy

Almost everything here is a condominium: monthly fees, rules, the reserve fund and short-term rental rules should be read before you make an offer, not after. Lots are small — 287 m² at the median — so ask about the town's own building rules before you commit.

Who it suits

A low-maintenance second home in a car-free setting, for buyers who accept some of the highest prices in the region. For simpler, less expensive year-round living, Sámara or Playa Carrillo, further south, are a better fit.

Frequently asked questions about Las Catalinas real estate

Is Las Catalinas in Santa Cruz?
Las Catalinas lies in the canton of Santa Cruz, in the district of Tempate — hence both names on this page. The few Reserva Conchal properties, in the same canton, are listed here too.
Can you drive in town?
Not in the centre: you park at the entrance and get around on foot or by bike.
What costs come on top of the price?
About 3.5 to 4% in purchase costs, the 0.25% annual property tax, and condominium fees, which vary by development: we give you the figures well before any offer.
