Gustavo Alvarado

Gustavo Alvarado was born and raised in Costa Rica but spent almost 20 years living and working in Switzerland. A long-time nurse assistant, he changed direction and started a Biergarten in Zürich with his best friend, a concept that is still running successfully today. While in Switzerland, he experienced European culture and traditions and became fluent in German, Swiss-German, Italian, and English.

After 6 years in the restaurant industry, he pivoted once again and returned to Costa Rica to take advantage of the enormous business opportunities and the pura vida lifestyle his home country is famous for. He got his start in real estate with the Coldwell Banker Samara office, and always felt the pull of the area further south. The Playa Coyote office was his dream, and he’s excited to support his family and countrymen by connecting buyers and sellers in the Coyote area.
