Paradise Peak Developments

La Joya (the Jewell) de la Costa Rica - Tucurrique


Paradise Peak’s premier housing community development, Paradise Peak La Joya, opened in July 2010. Located just east of the Orosi Valley, this property provides some of the most beautiful views in Costa Rica. La Joya is blessed with one of the worlds’ best climates, similar to Atenas, with everyday highs in the low to mid 80ºs and nightly lows in the 60ºs. La Joya is only 8 miles from Turrialba and 20 miles from Cartago, providing a premium country life style with all of the amenities and shopping facilities of a major city.

The views from La Joya are nothing short of spectacular, almost surreal. La Joya will be a tropical garden with all the local flowering heliconias and tropical flora. This year, over 7,000 tropical plants and trees were relocated to La Joya to begin the gardens. The planting is animal friendly, providing food and home to birds and wildlife. Beautiful views, clean air and spring water are all compliments of Mother Nature. Gardens, flowering trees, roads, utilities and infrastructure make La Joya a must see. Gardening and roadwork is in process.

Only 7 home sites will be sold on this 23 acre property, leaving lots of “elbow room” between neighbors. Two sites are sold, and the 5 remaining premium home sites will begin at $55,000. Total utilities, electricity, water and telephone will be available at each home site. Ceiling fans are the only air conditioning needed. High utilities bills will be a thing of the past.

Parrots in the Palms – A Community Designed for Bird and Animal Lovers - Tucurrique






Opening last year, Parrots in the Palms is a 27 acre development with 12 properties. Remaining properties are from 1.23 acres to 3.3 acres with plenty of green areas. Prices start at $45,000 to $85,000. The property is currently being landscaped to become a tropical botanical garden, full of parrots, toucans and natural wildlife. The species of birds that live in Parrots in the Palms is incredible. After planting natural food sources for the birds, they arrived! Large flocks of wild turkeys have also returned to Parrots in the Palms.

There is no major industry in the area, so the air is clean and the water pure. Parrots in the Palms is near a government protected reserve, so the surrounding forest will be your neighbor forever. One client compared a walk in Parrots in the Palms, as to walking on sacred ground. The forest is simply beautiful.

Parrots in the Palms has all utilities and a private road. The climate is near perfect, with daily highs in the low to mid 80s and nightly lows in the mid 60s. No air conditioning or heat is needed, just a ceiling fan or two. You will love your utility bill.

Landscaping began this year, with the road lined with palms and flowering heliconias. Come visit Parrots in the Palms and say goodbye to stress and welcome a quality lifestyle.



Vista del Paraiso (Views of Paradise) Orosi Valley
Scheduled to open in June in 2011, Vistas del Paraiso or “Views of Paradise” is a 56 acre development located just east of Orosi, near the hot springs resort, Rio Las Perlas. Priced at $69,000 per lot, this is one of the best values for a premium property in the valley.

The mountain property has a gradual slope, so every home site has a mountain view and does not look directly at another home. Thirty-one sites, of 1.72 acres, will call Vistas del Paraiso home. All home sites have beautiful views, with some sites having views of Volcano Irazu and Volcan Turrialba. At the base of the community is the common area, located on the Sombrero River. An open air, covered BBQ area with the natural beauty of the river will be available to all residents for family fun.

Like all Orosi Valley developments, the air is fresh and the water pure in Vistas del Paraiso. There are no polluters in the area to degrade air or water quality. Vistas del Paraiso is pure living within nature. All utilities are provided to each property; electricity and water. Water is obtained from artesian springs, free of chlorine, fluoride and pollutants.

The climate at Vistas del Paraiso is like other developments in the Orosi Valley, everyday highs in the mid 70’s and nightly lows in the 60s. The temperature range is near perfect. You will experience mild days and cool nights without fighting the hot summer days or the cold winter nights like in North America or Europe.

Roads are currently being built. Water systems are in process and electricity is installed. In June of 2011, the landscaping begins. Thousands of tropical plants will be transplanted to begin the gardens at Vistas del Paraiso. The planting will be bird and animal friendly, a trademark of all of our developments. Planting to provide food sources for birds will encourage a biodiversity the way nature intended. Make Vistas del Paraiso your home and prepare for a lifestyle most people only dream of having.

Sombrero River Estates, Orosi Valley


Sombrero River Estates is located a short drive from Cartago or Orosi. These beautiful lots, in a natural setting, have the Sombrero River on the northern border. These river lots are located near the Rio Las Perlas Hot Springs Resort. Lots are currently being surveyed and priced.

The Sombrero River is a pure white water river coming out of the rainforest, pure and natural. There is no industry or polluters anywhere near the river, so the trout in the river are clean and waiting to be caught. This Sombrero white water river reminds everyone of a Coors commercial, with the white water flowing over the rocks.

Landscaping Sombrero River Estates into a botanical garden is in progress. Your lifestyle could not be any prettier, a tropical garden on the banks of a white water river. All utilities, electricity and water, are provided at each lot.

Perched on a mountain side in the rainforest, this property provides the luxurious life style of a premium-gated exclusive community.

Paradise Peak Vista el Lago Cachi has all utilities and private road that enters the natural preserve. Drinking water is provided by Mother Nature, pure rainforest water captured at the artisan spring source. With daily highs in the 70ºs and nightly lows in the mid 50ºs to low 60ºs, no air conditioning or central heating is required. Say “good by” to high utility bills and prepare for the best view and the best life in the Orosi Valley.
