    My wife and I are thinking about comparing Costa Rica to Ecuador. The flight is under $500 each and the four day three night excursion is $399. Would it be worth our time to go as we are looking at beach front property in Ecuador and I do not believe you can own beach front property in Costa Rica?

    Hi Wayne,

    I don’t know about Ecuador. I would check with Dan Prescher and Suzan Haskins for details there.

    You are correct about beachfront property in Costa Rica. Ownership is severely restricted within 200 meters of the shore. Basically, it’s not allowed unless your property was grandfathered in or you have a special concession. Both are tricky cases. Best be content with walking a short distance to the beach.
