What makes Marenal different from similar developments
is our community concept.
​
It requires that our community members identify with our motto
“For Liberty – Against Violence – For Pura Vida”.
​
“For Liberty” stands for the right of any individual to always make their own decisions about their life, if they do not deliberately hurt man or animal.
“Against Violence” means the rejection of any war and any deliberate physical harm from any source, unless it is for the defense of one’s life and family.
“For Pura Vida” represents simply the enjoyment of a happy life provided by a positive relationship between neighbors, friends, family and the land.
However, as Calvin Coolidge once said…and we are paraphrasing…
​
“Liberty is not collective. It is personal, as all true Liberty is.”
​​

with the lowest occupation and maintenance expenses possible.​​
How will the community operate?
After the current Community rules and regulations have been voluntarily accepted by each purchaser before the purchase, each buyer will become a community member.
When all properties have been sold, the community members may want to form an Owner’s Association and a Board of Directors, which can then assume the management of the community. All matters of maintenance, security, and the enforcement of our simple rules and regulations, will then become the responsibility of the Association.
If the owners do not wish to accept this management responsibility, then the current owner of Marenal FGK S.A. and his management team will continue to manage the property. The management team shall be responsible for the maintenance of all common areas and the security features of the property.
​Marenal will have identified the best and most appropriate home location on each lot. We will provide individual house plans that can be modified to the desires of the property owner, if they include the ecological and energy-saving features of our plans. Marenal has a qualified and licensed architect and structural engineer and will build your home to our quality specifications.
All power lines and communication cables will be underground.
All house plans and changes must be approved by Marenal before construction permits can be obtained and construction can begin.​
