Gina Briguglio

Trusted Costa Rica Real Estate Agent & Broker on Guanacaste’s Gold Coast

Gina Briguglio is an experienced Costa Rica real estate agent and the founder of Costa Rica Real Estate CR. She serves clients along Guanacaste’s Gold Coast and the Lake Arenal region as a trusted broker. Her specialties include luxury homes, investment properties, and lifestyle relocations within the country’s most desirable coastal communities.

With more than 30 years of real estate experience — including 18 years successfully running her own business in the United States before relocating to Costa Rica — Gina brings seasoned expertise and an international perspective to every transaction. She provides strategic guidance, strong negotiation, and personalized representation for buyers, sellers, investors, and those planning a move.

Her expertise spans luxury beachfront estates, ocean-view villas, gated communities, condominiums, boutique hospitality opportunities, and income-producing investment properties. At the same time, she understands coastal regulations, fee-simple ownership, concession considerations, and long-term asset performance. Rather than focusing on one micro-market, she works across premier coastal and lake communities while aligning each search with lifestyle goals and financial objectives.

Because she has personally navigated an international relocation, Gina offers practical guidance beyond the transaction itself. She helps clients evaluate community selection, lifestyle transitions, and long-term residency planning with clarity and confidence. Her approach is strategic, transparent, and relationship-driven.
