Avellanas is for people who already know they do not want Tamarindo’s density. The beach is excellent. The grocery run is a plan.
Think jungle-to-sand lots, a few well-built homes, and a community that still feels small. Lola’s and the point breaks get the headlines; the real conversation is access roads in green season, well water, and whether a listing is actually in Avellanas or just “close.” Land is a bigger share of inventory than in town. Adam’s Avellanas picks are homes and lots he has walked, with a clear story on utilities and title — not a drone shot and a prayer.
