Motivation
To invest in tourism in Costa Rica is an intelligent decision. Just check the economic indicators of the whole conuntry, the more developed in tourism of Central America. Even during 2005 and 2006 it was higher demand of hosting than the country can offer ( around a 25 percent ).
The country is well knew in Europa and USA because of its ecological diversity. In this context we present this opportunity for investment in a hotel and an eco reserve ( for sale together), with a high ocupation rate all year and near one of the more visited national parks : Manuel Antonio ( Quepos ). It is better than hotels at the beach because being a mountain hotel it can offer the best of the 2 worlds : the ecological tourism, with the tropical forest, with plenty of flora and fauna, and also, beach tours.
The hotel
The hotel is over totally palne 3.3 acres land ( 12,700 sq meters ), with 660 feet front on public road. At the back there is a clean and powerfull river. The hotel is surrounded by walls ( the main, with a decoraty entry ), 4 two plants bungalows for 6 people each, reception, restaurant, swimming pool, warehouses, and other installations.
The Ecological reserve
The main attractive is the 402 acres ( 1,630,000 sq meters ) Ecological Reserve. The rainforest reserve passes through three life-zones: Lowland Rainforest, Tropical Wet Forest, and Pre-Montane.
The tropical wet forest is the most species-rich life zone in Costa Rica. The lush flora, three-hundred species of birds have been documented to date, including the endangered Scarlet Macaw. It is also home for many endangered tropical mammals, including the jaguar, the jaguarundi, the agouti paca and the squirrel monkey.
The reserve is one of the few locations in Costa Rica where all four native species of monkey still reside. It is also home to a plethora of insect, amphibian and reptile species including the Green Iguana, the Ctenosaur, and the remarkable Basilisk Lizard who has the ability to run for up to 50 yards on the surface of the water. The beautiful Morpho butterfly, whose iridescent blue wings span 6', is plentiful here thanks to concerted preservation and planting of its host plants. Three rivers run through the reserve. The largest is is 20 miles long and empties into the Pacific Ocean. The others are10 and 2 miles long. Three magnificent waterfalls grace the reserve; the waters including a huge one that cascades down from a height of 220 ft. spilling into an inviting swimming hole below. The rainforest reserve serves as a living laboratory for the study of rainforest biodiversity and offers the opportunity to actively participate in Analog Forestry restoration efforts. The reserve provides a safe setting for practical field experience in all areas of tropical rainforest biology and ecology.
