Costa Rica’s virtual accommodation superstore, www.CostaRicaBedfinder.com now offers an in-person customer relations base in Dominical in Puntarenas province.
With the last stretch of the ‘Costanera’ highway that connects the central and south Pacific coasts fully completed, Dominical is picked as the ideal location for effectively meeting the growing demand of short term rentals in the south coast, serving vacationers looking to rent private vacation homes and homeowners looking to turn their investment properties into income-producing vacation rentals.
“With so many real estate development projects targeting at second home buyers on the south coast, we see an opportunity to provide a 24/7 international marketing channel for property managers and homeowners” says Elaine Turner, the website’s founder.
Besides servicing vacationers as an information center and a meet-up point between renters and vacation rental operators, the office will assist home buyers in setting up their vacation rental properties.
“We can help homeowners identify and contract a suitable property manager or put them in touch with the appropriate homecare services providers, “ Elaine says.
“We work closely with property managers in the region by supporting them with marketing, administration and customer services,” she explains.
Although majority of rental requests come through the internet, the Dominical office will assist tourists and visitors who are passing through in finding onward accommodation elsewhere in Costa Rica, she says.
“We currently market over 600 vacation rentals throughout Costa Rica including Manuel Antonio, Jaco, Nosara, Tamarindo and Los Suenos, which enable us to provide a one-stop-shop for vacationers to find and book a home that suits their budget and taste, be it a beach condo, a luxury villa, an oceanfront home or a jungle chalet,” she adds.
With the 40-kilometers between Manuel Antonio and Dominical now smoothly paved, travel time between the two destinations is just 30 minutes, making it possible for tourists to venture south to experience a wilder and greener part of Costa Rica.
Dominical, once a sleepy fishing village is today a highly acclaimed international surfing spot. In recent years more and more intrepid travelers from USA and Canada have come to explore its dramatic coastline and invested in real estate which invariably offers majestic ocean views and pristine rainforests all in one.
The south coast also serves as a jump-off point for Corcovado National Park in the Osa peninsula, named by National Geographic as the most biologically diverse spot on earth.
After suffering many years of delay, the Costanera highway has at long last been completed, surprising many skeptics who have long ago given up on the hope that easy access from Manuel Antonio and Jaco Beach would secure the south coast’s economic growth.
Costa Rica Bedfinder is strategically located in Dominical’s most prominent business address at the Plaza Pacifica, a shopping center which also houses the BCR bank.
Property Managers and homeowners who would like to have their vacation rentals represented can visit the office between 8.00 am and 1.00 pm, Monday to Friday, or email ads@crb.cr. for more information.
Vacationers who would like assistance in finding or booking vacation homes can email info@crb.cr or call toll free 1.888.699.0272 from overseas. Reservation requests can also be made online on www.CostaRicaBedfinder.com.
