More about this video:
The only disadvantage of going into the city of San Isidro is fighting the traffic or trying to find a parking place in downtown San Isidro.
Most people refer to San Isidro as Perez Zeledon...even though the town is actually named San Isidro del General.
If you choose to live in the area of Perez Zeledon, you'll probably do all your major shopping in this town.
Today, I'll take you on a Tour of San Isidro or Tour Perez Zeledon, and show you how we can avoid all the traffic that is in the heart of San Isidro.
Our tour will take you from the North end of San Isidro to the South end and run along the whole 4 lane highway that runs through San Isidro del General.
Enjoy and make sure to let us know how you enjoyed this tour of San Isidro del General Costa Rica.

I loved this video so much! My husband and I are researching Costa Rica for our retirement in 5 years and the motorcycle drive was so helpful. We liked the beach one as well. I would love to see more videos like this showing this area and more areas south of your location. Would you consider showing us your home and the area around it?
@@luluvaughan2803 Glad you enjoyed it. You can see the area around our home in this video: ruclips.net/video/-Vb9iborEhk/видео.html
We live in Chimirol just about 5 min before we pass the Farmer's Market in Chimirol.
Just saw your video when got biten in your arm. I comment there what to do. Hope you see it. And get well.
Can you please tell me which are the two areas you said would be nice for living?? 🙏🙏🙏
I watched it twice now and I don't find it anymore 😑
@@jarjarbings2893 No problem...be glad to help you. Tell me at what time frame in the video I said this so I can go back watch it and give you the correct answer. I filmed that video some time ago...but best for me to go listen to what you heard so I can answer correctly .
NICE VIDEO. I AM ORIGINALLY FROM ITALY AND I LIVED IN SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, FOR 23 YEARS. I HAVE LIVED IN PEREZ ZELEDON, COSTA RICA, FOR THE PAST 14 YEARS, AND I AGREE WITHOUT A DOUBT THAT IT'S THE BEST PLACE TO LIVE IN COSTA RICA. YOUR CLOSE TO EVERYTHING. MOUNTAINS, BEACHES, JUNGLES. ARGUABLY THE BEST CLIMATE IN THE WORLD, AND YOU CAN BUY ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN SAN ISIDRO DEL GENERAL. IN FACT I HAVE ONLY LEFT THE PEREZ ZELEDON AREA OF COSTA RICA FOR 1 DAY IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. I FEEL LIKE I'M ON A NEVER ENDING HOLIDAY.
Thanks, we're really glad you enjoyed it.

aww I'm from San Isidro
Awesome! Thank you!
Me too!!
@@supertico16ify Enjoy
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica thanks man. Do you know Platanillo ?
@@supertico16ify of course...Yes I do. We pass through there sometimes when we go to the beach.
My town i love it
Glad you enjoy it...
I actually really appreciated seeing the inside of the big chain store! I had been wanting to see the inside of one as I had been hearing "you can't get this" or "you can't get that" in CR and just from the brief clip I was able to see a little selection of what is offered in these stores.
I'm thinking about actually doing a walk thru of a couple big stores...for example Walmart and some other big or popular grocery stores here...would that be interesting to you?
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Oh yeah for sure, I would love to see that.
@@peopleperson50 I'll give it a try...problem in CR is they are a little crazy when it comes to doing filming or pictures in a business. They seem to think that you are about to rob the place and you MUST be filiming so you can make a plan....THEY watch too many HOLLYWOOD movies and then believe the crap they see.
Lol
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Yeah ok I was a little worried about that and not sure if that would be an issue! Don't make anyone angry for our sake!
Also San Isidro has a huge farmers market. I forget what day it is but I have been there and found organic produce too. Don’t miss it for super deals straight from the growers.
You are correct. Happens every Thursday. But I usually seem to miss it, but I can go anytime at my favorite produce place...but I think you can get even better deals at the La Feria...you are talking about in town.
Home town baby ...! I’am Guerrero del Sur ...!
Enjoy
Hey Allen, do you know if there is a Pacudamundo there? Also, is there any restrictions on driving ATV's on the hiway from Puntarenas south to that area? I would like to take a trip on our side by sides next year.
Driving ATVs on the highway is legal if you have plates. Most every ATV in CR has plates and gets inspected each year. If you have plates on your side by side...you should have no problems traveling on the highway.
What is a Pacudamundo???
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Pacudamundo is a chain of stores. A cross between a dollar store and IKEA. They are fairly large warehouse style stores, slightly smaller than Wal-Mart. They have them in San Jose, Liberia and Puntarenas, that I know of.
@@douglacoursiere2269 I haven't seen any and I searched google to see what one looks like, but can't find them on google either?
So...I guess not? Lol
@@douglacoursiere2269 you mean pequeño mundo and we don't have one yet 😭
@@calebmora4831 Yes, I was trying to spell the name from memory. We have shopped at the Liberia and Puntarenas before and stop everytime we fly into Liberia. Lots of household items and a smaller grocery area in them than Walmart.
How is it to order things online in comparison to the US? Do you get to order anything you want on Amazon?
Does it often get "lost" by the delivery staff?
It is a challenge for sure, but there is a way. Which, we will be talking about today on the UNBRIDLED Living in Costa Rica Podcast. Come join us LIVE and ask your questions and I'll be sure to answer them. Today at 4:30 PM -

I live out past pejibaye in the mountains, if I have to go to Perez it's by bus, do a quick trip around for what meds I need and get out asap.
Way too bustling and noisy for me.
I agree...I like the outskirts of the city, but it's nice to know, you can take a bus, get what you need and get out.
Hi,
How are you doing guys?
I hope you are doing well and both are staying safe.
Can you please let me know if you have any recommendations for where to rent a storage space close to San Isidro? Thank you so much ☺️

Hey Alena, I just. found a great place to rent Storage Units...we just moved most of our stuff there and the owner and the employee there was a great help.
Join our free forum and hit me message me there. I'm going to put a link there to that info....
Do you know an app to buy property there?
Now that's funny??? Costa Rica is so far behind the times....with technology, I would be surprised to see or find an app. To my knowledge...no, I don't know of an app to buy property.
Do you know where the best place is to buy a good quality mattress in Perez Zeledon? We are really enjoying your videos.
I have no idea....Walmart has some mattress, but I don't know the quality. We've only bought one and it was a long time ago. Sorry
Not sure if you ever found one, Len, but Electromuebles carries a line called Rest Zone and we're super happy with the queen size we bought there.
NEW SUBBIE HERE!? can you please please recommend a cooler place, city near the mountains we can move to next year? Not a fan of the beach but love the mountains and cooler weather. Thank you so much I'm already enjoying your channel!!! I can't wait to share
Yes of course! San Isidro is nice and comfortable...but if you want to get even cooler...go either Tinamaste which is in between San Isidro and Dominical Beach or go up the mountain from San Isidro to Rivas... The Closer you get to Mount Chirripo the cooler it gets.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica okay so Perez zeledon, tinamaste or Rivas?
So sorry but did I get these cities correct?
Best for colder regions and green areas?
I will be traveling with 2babies so the less movement I have to do the easier it will certainly be!
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica wait I totally read that incorrectly . Ok so Tinamaste or Rivas, the closer to mount chirripo the better
@@warriorqueen8285 Correct mostly. Perez Zeledon is a huge Region. You can look at it as a state with a lot of cities inside.
San Isidro, Tinamaste, Rivas...all great place to live, grow garden, etc and are cities that are within Perez Zeledon
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica okay I def understand now that makes sense, ty ty ty!
Kind if looks and seems to be kind of like home 40 yrs ago
Yes....we often say, Costa Rica is kinda like the US 30 or 40 years ago...especially with some of their technology.
Alot of the side roads aren't paved.. but locals tell me they like it that way to keep people (hopefully) from driving too fast. The only problem this time of year with that is the dust. Still.. I'm from NJ. Prefer the dust to the sloppy snowstorm they just got. Hated driving in that
@@rrojanorge YES....very true and what lot of Ticos do is wet down the road in front of their house to keep the dust down. Some put up a fabric that looks like a shade cloth across the front of their property in order do hold the dust back from going into the house. Dirt roads are a THING most people learn to live with in Costa Rica.
When we are able to move, if the tax-free importation went quicker/covid, we'd bring down a Fiat 500, but would want a new slightly bigger vehicle in Costa Rica. If I found a new $15,000 vehicle, what would the taxes be? Or total price? Thank you!
Watch this video: ruclips.net/video/8SAtINMBN6E/видео.html
It will help you determine how much taxes would be to import a new vehicle. However, if the proposed law gets passed...it will save us a LOT of money.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Thank you!
I’m thinking of doing something similar, so how do you financially support yourself and how is the immigration process???
I've been Online Entrepreneur since 2006, so I am fortunate enough to be able to support myself with my online work.
So are you there as a tourist or resident?
@@paulreportingliv At the moment a tourist, but I will have my Digital Nomad visa in a week or two.
It is difficult to get a residency if you are like me and still work.
Where can we get the unedited video? Love your content.
I am still working on it...but it should go live within 24 hours.
Awesome thank you! We are trying to come down in February but may have to wait.
@@kimphillips5162 I hope you will make it. I feel sure you will love it.
Keep watching and learning...we'll give you all the facts.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica We know we will. Thanks to your videos we have seen, where we think we would like to live. You have gave us A LOT of great info. Thank you for all your videos.

Do you know if that Toyota dealership at the mall would honor US Toyota warranty work?
I don't know if they will, I would think that they would...but CR is very different. I do know that when I take my Apple MacBook Pro in to get service, they do honor any warranty work.... So, they do for Apple. I would think they would for Toyota too, but I can't say for certain.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica thanks for input!
Great video, gracias. Are cars cheaper to buy there than in San jose?
Depends, but you would probably get a better maintained car in San Jose. Here...there are a LOT of bad roads and the car would probably be fairly beaten up a lot more than if you bought in San Jose.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Thanks for the reply! We visited last January and we were going to come back down last summer before the pandemic. We seriously want to retire there but I couldn't take the extreme heat by the beach, so we are looking extensively at Tinamastes and Plantillo so we could be somewhat close to the beach but still have cooler temps. Thank you for your videos!
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Also wanted to mention that if the government decides to go the tax-free route on containers we will be there in less than a minute 😃
@@kellym3113 I'm hoping they will...We still have a container waiting in the states for when or IF they pass the proposed law.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Hi, Pérez Zeledón is part of the province of San Jose
I walk by that river in the intro... 3x a week.
Well then....YOU know right were we are. I hope you enjoy the river as much as we do. Enjoy.
I do. I live near Los Lagos in Calle los Moras. I'm the token Gringo :)
@@rrojanorge Yes...I know where that is....sometimes I go jogging down that street.
REMEMBER THAT THE LORD IS ALWAYS WITH YOU,❤ BROTHER and the Wife,
Hey Buddy...Not sure WHY you said this...but thanks. I would like to know why you thought it important to say this. I do KNOW, God and I are very close. We talk every day and I spend time with God every morning and all day as I work.
I hope you spend time with God too! Blessings!
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica I know the Lord Yashua, his Blessings, is always on us, GREAT THINGS ARE COMING BLESSINGS AND MORE
@@eduardodiaz5877 Thanks, brother. We need to be praying for Michael...he is going the wrong way. He has sold his soul for money!
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica like Samson and DELILAH, looks like, I'm not Judging 🤔 just saying like Mike Pence,V,P,
I live in perez Zeledón
That's great

Certain not much to look at idk..
San Isidro is a great town to shop....it's not a touristy town to go look at.
Thanks... it depends on what you are looking for. There are places where it is not touristy and there are also places where most of the tourist comes in.
You are here to learn, it is pronounced HeneRAAL, not gen-ehral. Don't get it wrong!
Thanks for your input.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Updated already! Sorry for an extra D, there was a typo.
Unfortunately,San Isidro, downtown has been taken for beggars and drunks asking money.
It is true that there are some drunks and beggars in San Isidro, however, I believe we have seen drunks and beggars in EVERY CITY we've been to in Costa Rica. It's just a part of Costa Rica...but in reality...you can find drunks and beggars all over the world. But in my opinion, you don't see that many in San Isidro. Thanks for your input.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica thank for responding bro. I agree with about it I know that there many countries dealing with this, that's true, I was born in San Isidro and I remember when things were different. But you're right there are still many worthy things in our city.thanks
@@alvarocastaneda6191 YES....you are right. I think a LOT of people wish it was still as nice as it was many years ago.
@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica thanks, I know there are good people who reflect God's love and peace and they are living among us , at least that's what happens in General Viejo the town where I live
@@alvarocastaneda6191 I think you can find good people who reflect God's love EVERYWHERE, but it's important to focus on the Good and not the bad. Thanks
I do not like san isidro del general
Thanks for your input...I suggest...if you don't like it...find another place.
