Luxury Yachts in Guanacaste Costa Rica

Luxury Yachts in Guanacaste

The province has a fairly extensive fleet of yachts, however, the vast majority of them are sport fishing yachts.

Luxury Yachts
Contrary to the luxury boats and yachts that can be rented in the United States, Mexico or the Caribbean, in Costa Rica there are really very few or almost no motor yachts for leisure travel.

Costa Rica is more of a sailing destination for sailboats and sailing catamarans, largely because of the country’s image itself, which reflects sustainability and the environment.

Sailing charters
Luxury and service

Contrary to what some people may think, catamarans offer the same facilities on board as a leisure yacht, even, they are to some extent, more spacious, ideal for group trips, families or even couples.

Some of the areas we serve are:
