Playa Langosta
– The community –
Playa Langosta Costa Rica is a prime & mostly residential neighborhood on the southern end of Playa Tamarindo.
The beach at Langosta is very picturesque with volcanic outcroppings in the Pacific and is cut in half by a gorgeous river mouth separating the tide pools of the reef on the north end to the long white sand beach on the south end.
There is an intermediate to advanced surfing wave in front of the river mouth and beginner to advanced surfer waves all along the beach counting 3+ different breaks.

– Real Estate Prices –
Langosta has single-family homes for sale ranging from $800,000 to $3M+ for luxury beachfront estates, all within walking distance to its pristine white sand beach.
Condos start in the low $400,000 for a 2 bedroom / 2 bath.
You’ll find two main commercial areas where the offices, supermarket, and restaurants are located.
There are three condominium towers in Langosta, but they are grandfathered in as new national building restrictions will not allow buildings of that height that close to the water in the future.
Playa Langosta real estate is a good choice for someone who wants to be a little bit further away from the action of Tamarindo in a nice residential/family-friendly community where you can walk to everything.
