New Pacific Coast Highway is Now Open.
Drive Time To Rancho Pacifco Estates is Now less Than 90 Minutes From San Jose Airport.
This week, Costa Rica is set to unveil a long-awaited highway from San Jose to Caldera, which will cut the usual two-hour journey from the capital city to that central Pacific town of Jaco, down to as little as 45 minutes.
Planning for the highway began more than 30 years ago. Motorists can begin using it Wednesday, according to the Public Works and Transport Ministry (MOPT). The toll will be 2,000 colones ($3.58) each way for cars.
However, MOPT Minister Marco Vargas said last week that he will not open the toll booth in Ciudad Colon unless authorities find it necessary. The statement came at a time in which drivers in Santa Ana and Ciudad Colon have objected to the 160 colones ($0.29) toll to travel between the two towns. The road authorities will increase the tolls at other booths to make up the revenue, according to MOPT.
Rancho Pacifico Estates is located on the central Pacific Coast of Costa Rica in
the
Province of Puntarenas. This private gated community of only 20 buildable estate home sites, ranging in sizes from 2-4 acres, is an exclusive community situated on 60 lush acres in the rolling hills of Las Colinas, in the town of Chomes.
Rancho Pacifico features spectacular panoramic views of the vast Pacific Ocean
to the tropical south and the Gulf Islands of the Nicoya Peninsula towards the western sunset.
During the day amongst all the exotic flowers, birds, and wildlife one can see all the way down the Pacific Ocean coastline to Jaco Beach.
