Discovery Weekend Itinerary

Upon your arrival in Costa Rica Steve Linder will pick you up at the San Jose (SJO) airport and transport you to the Hotel Martino www.HotelMartino.com.

The Hotel Martino has an excellent restaurant for dinner, a spa and gym and is directly across the street from the bird zoo.

The following morning after a free breakfast we will transport you to the Southern Pacific region and the development we represent. This is a 3 1/2 to 4 hour drive with stops along the way for bathroom breaks.

Upon arrival to our guest house you will be assigned a room. You will receive a complete price list of available home sites upon arrival. You may have time for a quick dip in the pool and a chance to mingle with your tour mates before lunch. We'll then serve a hearty lunch of natural ingredients (let us know of any special dietary requirements) before heading off for an afternoon tour, with emphasis today on examples of custom homes, construction methods and ideas on how to work with the natural contour of the land. You'll tour a variety of fine homes as well as see samples of the various styles of houses we've built. Lot sizes vary from estate sized multiple acre lots to higher density developments with neighbors nearby. Some lots will have ocean views, some will have mountain views, some with have both. Lot prices vary depending on the view more than the size.

We'll return to the guest house with time to relax before dinner, take a swim or just enjoy the fantastic ocean views. A gourmet dinner will be served and you'll have the rest of the evening to relax and enjoy the setting and the company, watch TV, read or perhaps play pool.

You'll wake to the sounds of nature before joining the group for a delicious natural breakfast. Today we'll tour available lots in Ojochal and Chontales in a variety of our phases as well as any lots that have been pre-reserved by members of our group. Some guests will have pre-reserved lots to insure they get the phase or location they desire. You'll see ocean and mountain view lots. You'll also see lots we'd sold a few years ago that have doubled in value. Some owners of multiple lots have used the profits made on the resale of their lots to pay for building their custom home.

Upon return to the guest house, you can take a swim or just relax in our huge covered gazebo. After another delicious meal, you can opt to continue to tour our lots, take a tour of Ojochal; the beaches, area restaurants and a local shopping center or just relax by the pool if you prefer.

After another epicurean dinner experience, you'll spend the evening swimming, playing games or just relaxing while mingling with others in your group. A casual evening will end day two, while those who have made purchases will complete the necessary paperwork.

You will begin day three with a tasty breakfast of eggs, fresh fruits, juices and homemade breads. After breakfast and some time to relax, we'll load up the luggage and head back to San Jose and should arrive by 2 pm. If your flight home is not until the following day we can arrange for you to stay at a hotel near the airport for $75 that offers airport transportation.

We provide you with a price list of available lots upon arrival and let you be the judge of the value. No sales pitch or presentation will be made at any time during your stay. We need no sales presentation since our property sells itself. When you see the beauty of the area, the magnificent views, the infrastructure provided to each lot, the exceptional value and the homes we've built for existing customers, you'll understand why our property sells so quickly. Our custom home building service is unmatched and an incredible value. If after reviewing our properties, you are interested in purchasing, someone will be available to assist you with the details. If not, no problems.

If you have already reserved a lot, you will have the option of keeping that lot, or trading your deposit to another available lot of your choice. Many of our clients prefer to reserve a lot prior to their arrival since there are only a limited number of lots that feature the very best in ocean or mountain views. Bring your checkbook since each phase of our developments has sold out quickly and lots available today may not be available by the time you return home.

Remember that if you purchase a lot during your visit to the guest house, we apply the $250 visit fee to the purchase price as well as credit you $1000 to cover your airfare.

The first step to set up a visit is to complete the Client Visit Application.
