Ventanas San Mateo is secluded and private and yet is only a 35 minute drive from San Jose. The area has been designed to provide maximum ocean views and yet still to preserve the lush green surroundings. This development will retain its original natural state and heritage.
Ventanas San Mateo not only contains all appropriate infrastructure but will contain a pool, Jacuzzi, clubhouse, walking paths , a suspension bridge and a large common area.
Ventanas San Mateo is located at the base of the Aquacate Mountains where they begin their gentle slope to the Pacific Ocean. The warm climate is cooled by the breezes from the ocean and the surrounding mountains. The area is one of Costa Rica's richest fruit producers of mangos, watermelons, cantaloupe and pineapples.
The people are very friendly, and prices still haven't caught up with the higher costs of the cities. Because it is not a tourist attraction, the area remains pure and pristine.
The fun and excitement of discos, gambling casinos and nightlife are just a half an hour away in Jaco and 35 minutes in the opposite direction in Puntarenas....and yet San Mateo and Ventanas are but a 40-minute drive from San Jose, the historical capital city of Costa Rica, with more than a million people and activities galore.
The canton is one of the least populated in the country and is comprised of many small haciendas whose owners live in the capital. The Damas Bridge over the Río Jesús María near Esparza is considered a historical landmark. The canton is drained by the Machuca, Aguagria, Surubres and Jesús Rivers. The canton produces rice, corn, beans, sugar cane and a large variety of fruits. It has produced fine woods such as cedar, pochote, guachipelín, madera negra but much of the good wood has been over-forested and left depleated.
The town of San Mateo is 800 feet above sea level and is linked to San Ramón, Orotina, and Esparza cantons by good roads. In the northwest part of the canton, is the Aguacate gold mine.
