    Expense is all relative, if you live in an established stable democratic government run country, like Canada or USA I think you will find the price considerably cheaper. The rub is tourist zone as Jaco will cost more because us gringos can afford it and they know it..as well the Real Estate there is obviously targeting the expats not tourists, keep in mind they are not advertising the cheaper property, there are plenty.

    Costa Rica is more expensive than the Phils. But surprisingly, the veg. And others sold in the supermarket is less expensive. Thank you for that info about prices in Costa Rica.

  • @mrbr549
    @mrbr549 3 года назад +4

    Great video! As far as the prices, they are pretty similar to what I'm paying already here in the States. I definitely wouldn't go there to save money or retire.

  • @debbiemccallister1852
    @debbiemccallister1852 3 года назад +3

    Coming from the UK, I think prices are reasonable, being a touristy area you expect to pay a tad more. Be careful while walking in the shrubs, watch for those crocs, I think I worry too much, lol...🙂

    • @PatMaxAdventures
      @PatMaxAdventures  3 года назад +1

      I totally agree with you. Yes, watch out for crocs for sure!

  • @lindsayrollin4291

    Jaco and Costa Rica in general ain`t cheap but if you consider how beautiful CR is and all the abundant nature and how safe it is and how friendly all the natives are and many of them speak English for me it`s worth it.

    • @PatMaxAdventures
      @PatMaxAdventures  3 года назад

      I totally agree with you!. It’s definitely worth it!

    Cost is all relative, you have to compare to your own living standards and other locales. Very insightful video, thanks Pat! Your burger reminds me of the time I was in Zurich, Switzerland (which to me, is a very expensive city), when I ordered a burger (half the size of yours) that cost me about $20! Yikes.

    • @PatMaxAdventures
      @PatMaxAdventures  3 года назад

      You’re right. It’s all about your own living standards. Switzerland looks so beautiful, but very expensive too. Thank you for sharing!

  • @jameskenson6730
    @jameskenson6730 2 года назад +1

    The cost of living is high considering how much people make there. these are all gringo prices which are ridiculous. I would rather go to Miami or Vegas

    Compared to Thailand and Malaysia, I was very surprised that Costa Rica is expensive. I'm back in San Jose March 26 and then it's off to Jaco for the first time ever for a few nights. Thanks for giving me a preview of the town and prices.

    I`ve eaten at the Ridiculous Burger too their burgers are not cheap but you get what you pay for their delicious. BTW Did you see the picture of the mile high burger they sell for a crazy high price I think it was over 50 dollars but the catch is if you can eat the entire thing in 30 minutes it`s free. I doubt very many could eat that big a burger in 30 minutes. It had about 12 patties of meat pilled up .

    Your vlogs super. We got to know how expensive the spa there compared to my country Philippines, however restaurant food is reasonable, but onion is $4.40 per kg thats almost three times costlier in India. It's 1.50 usd here in Bangalore, India and internet here is unlimited for a month with tv channels cost you around $14 dollars a month. Visit here Patmax in future. Filipina here from India. I hope you will always do vlog about prices also apart from travel. How about the gym there?

    • @PatMaxAdventures

    Hi Pat I love this Jaco video . BTW the super markey Mas X Menos is privately owned . All the Maxi Pali that you see in Jaco and all over Costa Rica are owned by Walmart. I prefer the Mas X Menaosone in Jaco . Do you know what Mas X Menos translates to in English ? It means More for Less. Cheers 🥂 , Pat , Lindsay

    For sure more expensive then a lot of other spots around the world. Do you think it is worth it? Or are there other counties in this part of the world where you clearly get more bang for your buck?
