Two coastal homes. Two ways to experience Playa Tivives.

Two homes in the Costa Investing collection illustrate how beach access, space, and purchase terms shape a coastal property search. One sits directly on the sand; the other is advertised one block from the ocean. Here is a useful starting comparison, based on their public listing information reviewed on 3 October 2026.

What is being offered?

Begin with the beach setting

The beachfront home places the garden and pool beside the ocean, with covered outdoor space and an upper balcony. The near-beach home offers a furnished two-bedroom layout and its own plunge pool. Ask to see the actual route to the beach when considering the second home, and the outdoor spaces and beach access when viewing the first.

Understand the advertised ownership

Both public listings describe a Coopetivives concession and cooperative arrangement. They are not presented as fee-simple titled beachfront property. Request the documents specific to the home you are considering, then have your Costa Rican attorney review the rights, transfer process, and current conditions. The home’s appeal and the ownership documentation are separate parts of the decision.

Confirm the purchase terms and ongoing costs

Request the current written purchase terms for the home you are considering. Confirm whether any financing arrangement is available before including it in your comparison. For both homes, ask what furnishings are included, what community charges apply, and what the recurring maintenance and operating costs are.

Make the viewing answer your questions

Bring your property brief and the questions you want resolved. Ask about the condition of the home, pool maintenance, included items, and any improvements you would want to make. A live walkthrough can help you understand the layout before arranging a visit.
