About Christian Cavanagh

With a strong foundation in sales, customer service, and local market expertise, Christian blends professionalism, ethics, and honesty to offer a truly client-centered real estate experience.
Originally from the Caribbean coast of Venezuela, where he developed a deep love for the sea and beach lifestyle, Christian now proudly calls Guanacaste home — and is passionate about helping others do the same.

Before transitioning into real estate, Christian built a successful corporate career working for multinational companies across Venezuela, Mexico, and Argentina. He led sales teams and developed business strategies in fast-paced, high-performance environments. This background gave him a sharp sense of negotiation, communication, and client care — all of which he now brings to every real estate transaction.

Over the past several years in Costa Rica, Christian has expanded his expertise well beyond traditional sales. He has managed both short- and long-term rental properties, overseen property management operations, led residential construction projects, and played a key role in the development of a high-end condominium project south of Tamarindo. Through this hands-on experience, he has gained in-depth knowledge of land law, water rights, taxation, zoning, and other legal and technical areas essential to real estate in Costa Rica.

What does this mean for you? Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, Christian’s diverse background allows him to anticipate challenges, offer creative solutions, and guide you through every stage of the process with confidence. He’s not just focused on closing a deal — he’s focused on your success, your peace of mind, and your long-term satisfaction.

At Hidden Coast Realty, Christian has found the perfect match for his values and work ethic. He believes in always going the extra mile, offering personalized, honest guidance from the very first conversation — and even long after the transaction is complete. From connecting you with trusted legal experts, architects, and service providers, to simply making your transition to life in Costa Rica as smooth and joyful as possible, Christian is here to support you every step of the way.

Whether you’re looking for a vacation home, a family residence, a retirement haven, or a smart investment, Christian is committed to protecting your interests and maximizing your results — while making the entire journey enjoyable and stress-free.

    His knowledge and professionalism made the transaction super easy and smooth.

    Christian recently helped me with a condo purchase in Tamarindo. His knowledge and professionalism made the transaction super easy and smooth, Hidden Coast was able to assist in all aspects of the sale (attorneys, accountants, appraisals, inspections, financing) as well as post sale and management issues (maintenance, decorating, renovations, contractors, cleaners). They do it all, and they know everyone. A wonderful partner to have in any type of real estate deal in the area. Thank you!

    From start to finish, Christian went above and beyond.

    Christian Cavanagh of Hidden Coast Realty is the best real estate agent I’ve ever worked with—hands down!
    I moved from the USA to Tamarindo, Costa Rica. From start to finish, Christian went above and beyond. His deep knowledge of the Tamarindo/Guanacaste area helped me find my dream home and ideal community. He listened closely to my needs and lifestyle, explained every step clearly, and negotiated a significantly lower price—Saving me Tens of Thousands of Dollars!
    This was my first international real estate purchase and I felt completely supported throughout the whole process. His exceptional market knowledge, outstanding communication, kindness, confidence, and personalized approach made the process smooth, efficient, and full of joy.
    Christian handled everything, including remote negotiations, paperwork, and connecting me with trusted legal, financial, and contractor resources. He’s incredibly responsive, proactive, and genuinely cares. His problem-solving expertise, professionalism, integrity, and network of reliable contacts were invaluable, assuring that the best and most comprehensive custom services were at my assistance. With his genuine care and dedication, he went out of his way to turn my real estate purchase process into a manageable, exciting, and joyful experience.
    Even after closing, he continues to assist me with everything I need from afar. I completely trust him—and that level of comfort makes all the difference to me.
    Christian takes the term “great customer service” to a new level. I did not feel like a “customer” – I felt like an important person whose life, decisions, and future are important to him.
    If you want a transparent and trusting relationship with a top-tier, international real estate agent, who’s not only skilled but genuinely cares about you and is truly invested in your success, work with Christian. I’m so grateful I did! I wish everyone could have a realtor as amazing as he is!

    I still don’t have enough words of gratitude to Christian for all his work.

    Christian Cabanagh has been my real estate agent. I want to give the best review possible but I still don’t have enough words of gratitude to Christian for all his work, since, during and after the sale. He has given me a lot of confidence from the beginning to the end. His professionalism, his close treatment, his unconditional availability have exceeded all my expectations. I will be eternally grateful that he crossed my path and I carry him in my heart.
    I recommend it unconditionally.
    Thank you very much Christian

    Excellent work by Cristian Cavanagh

    Excellent work by Cristian Cavanagh, who was the agent who assisted us with the sale of the house. Kindness, responsibility, and above all the support and follow-up that he gave us until the very closing of the operation.
