This is the courtyard of the condos across the street from our Langosta Beach condo. It is a pleasant environment of lush landscaping and fountains. These condos are not right on the ocean so the owners or guests do not get a view of the beach and waves from their condos, which we really enjoy, but they have a very tranquil courtyard and they are a very short walk across the street and on a little path beside our condo to reach the beach.
We are showing photos of the architecture of Santa Fe, New Mexico on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site this week.
Like many places in the world, developers in Costa Rica built too many condos during the real estate boom that collapsed several years ago. Quality projects, like this one and like the buildings where are condos are located, have continued to be successful, whereas projects that were not well planned or located have suffered. In future weeks I will show some examples of unsuccessful projects up in the hills in some of the other beach communities.

This certainly does look inviting.

This scene reminds me of México; such beautiful work and tranquility in the courtyard!
ReplyDeleteLooks very italian, almost palladian.
ReplyDeleteTranquil is the word I'd use to describe this courtyard. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteThat is just beautiful. I would gladly live across the street from the ocean compared to the location I have now. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a great place to stay. lovely shot.
ReplyDeleteIt's a tropical paradise!
ReplyDeleteThe palm tree trunks look like big columns as in the egyptian temples. Fantastic place and shot too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo. Wow, that courtyard and a quick walk across the street to the beach is hard to beat.
