Costa Dorada is an exciting master-planned eco-resort community spanning 325 acres along the spectacular Gold Coast of the Nicoya Peninsula in Marbella, Guanacaste. Ideally positioned between the vibrant beach towns of Tamarindo and Nosara, this thoughtfully designed development combines sustainable planning, modern infrastructure, and a relaxed coastal lifestyle in one of Costa Rica’s most naturally preserved regions.
The first phase of the project, Las Colinas, encompasses 74 acres and offers 274 residential homesites of approximately one-quarter acre each, located just 300 meters from the beach. Designed with both residents and investors in mind, the community provides an exceptional opportunity to build a custom home within a carefully planned environment that prioritizes nature and quality of life.
Costa Dorada‘s long-term vision includes an impressive collection of resort-style amenities, featuring a vibrant mixed-use village with shops and services, three community clubhouses, an exclusive beach club overlooking Playa Cóncava, and more than five miles of scenic walking and nature trails that connect residents with the surrounding tropical landscape.
Modern infrastructure has been thoughtfully integrated throughout the development, including underground electrical utilities, reliable water service, high-speed fiber-optic internet, and paved internal roads, ensuring the convenience of contemporary living while preserving the area’s natural beauty.
Located in the peaceful beach community of Marbella, Costa Dorada offers a quieter alternative to Costa Rica’s more developed destinations while remaining within easy reach of Tamarindo and Nosara. Marbella is internationally recognized for its consistent surf breaks, uncrowded beaches, and relaxed atmosphere. As part of the Nicoya Peninsula—one of the world’s five officially recognized Blue Zones—it is a place celebrated for its healthy lifestyle, strong sense of community, and exceptional natural environment. Liberia International Airport (LIR) is approximately 90 minutes away, making Costa Dorada easily accessible for both homeowners and visitors.
