While the Costa Rican landscape is breathtakingly beautiful and ecologically diverse, it is the Tico people that make it a home to return to again and again. Privileged to call one of the most awe-inspiring places in the world home, the Ticos treat visitors and guests alike with the warmth and familiarity of a longtime friend. Proud of their natural heritage; their culture is a happy marriage of environmental conservation with a passionate understanding of the land and its inhabitants. Ticos embody the complete contentment that comes with pura vida, the "pure life" of Costa Rica... and nowhere else is this sense of happiness more alive than at Tranquilo, Punta Leona's exclusive community of residences.
