What is SOLARIUM?
SOLARIUM is located across the road from the
Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport in
Liberia, Guanacaste region, Costa Rica.
It is the first project focused on providing a
services and industrial and commercial
environment in the area.
The Guanacaste region, located at the
northwestern part of Costa Rica, is the most
dynamic province in the national economy and
is the fastest growing area, targeted by the
government for growth in tourism and business
development in the future.

More than just a real estate development…
The total area of the SOLARIUM project is a little
over eleven million square feet. It has 0.65 miles
of frontage and is 0.63 miles deep.
It is is a multifunctional project that is designed
and will be developed in harmony with nature
by one of the most experienced and reputable
Costa Rican developers.
It is designed with the protection and
preservation of nature in mind. For this reason,
50% of its total area is devoted to landscaping.

All in one place
SOLARIUM currently has a functioning worldclass logistics center, a mixed-use development
consisting of retail, office and residential spaces
and a Hilton Garden Inn Hotel.

building.

the society for Science and Technology parks
and, with two universities already situated in the

creating the first Science and Technology Park in
Costa Rica.
The vision is to create clusters of industries and
an onsite research and development incubator.
