Condominio Caoba

Condominio Caoba is a development by Concasa, a developer well-known for their large-scale master-planned communities in San Rafael de Alajuela (like Campo Real). Caoba represents their entry into the Ciudad Colón market, bringing their signature formula of efficient, uniform townhouses with resort-style amenities to a location known for its warmer climate and proximity to nature.

Location & Connectivity

• Address: Ciudad Colón, 200 meters East of Banco Popular.
• Walkability: Unlike many gated communities that are isolated, Caoba is close enough to the center of Ciudad Colón to walk to banks, supermarkets (Mas x Menos), and local restaurants.
• Commute: About 10–15 minutes to Santa Ana and 20–25 minutes to Escazú via Route 27 (though the toll access can be tricky depending on traffic).
• Vibe: Ciudad Colón is known as a "cultural town" with a very relaxed, semi-rural feel, popular among artists, expats, and the University for Peace community.
