Living in Costa Rica

Living in Costa Rica


Costa Rica isn't just a destination, it's a way of life: the famous 'pura vida'. This concept embodies the simplicity and happiness of daily life, making Costa Rica a popular destination, especially for retirees, who are looking for a paradise where they can spend their golden years.

Costa Rica is one of the most popular destinations for those who decide to move abroad, thanks to its sunny climate, breathtaking beaches and unspoiled nature. Many choose to spend the winter months here, enjoying the warmth and relaxation, and then return to their homeland during the summer. This allows you to live two different lifestyles without giving up the wonders of Costa Rica. Others prefer to settle down permanently, attracted not only by economic savings but also by a slower and less stressful pace of life.

In 2012, Costa Rica was recognized as the happiest country in the world by the New Economics Foundation in London. This prestigious award is based on three main factors: the well-being of citizens, life expectancy and ecological footprint.
Living in Costa Rica means embracing a lifestyle that promotes health, happiness and respect for the environment.
