It’s known for its privacy, security, strategic location, and luxury homes.

INTERVIEW: Lakota: The Go-to Residential Community in San Ramón de Tres Ríos
An Exclusive and Family-Oriented Community
What truly sets Lakota apart is its limited number of homes, which creates a sense of exclusivity rarely found in other residential developments in the area. With so few properties available, residents enjoy a quieter, more private living environment where familiarity and security are part of the deal.
This intimate scale fosters a strong sense of community, making Lakota especially appealing to families. Children can safely ride bikes or roller skate on the flat streets, or take peaceful walks surrounded by mountain views and greenery. It also offers 24/7 guarded security, with a staffed entrance that ensures constant monitoring. The community’s layout encourages a relaxed, outdoor lifestyle in a safe and welcoming environment.

Ideal for Families with School-Aged Children
Lakota is particularly attractive to families due to its walking-distance proximity to Marian Baker School, a prestigious American school offering the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, Advanced Placement (AP) courses, and the American high school program. Many Lakota residents choose this school for their children, valuing both its academic excellence and unbeatable location.
Nearby, families also have access to several other top schools, including Liceo Franco Costarricense, Saint Clare, Anglo American, Victoria, Yokin, Iribó, and the Methodist School in Sabanilla.
Strategic Location: Mountain Living, City Convenience
San Ramón de Tres Ríos is a privileged mountain area known for its cool climate, landscapes, and proximity to San José and Cartago. Lakota offers two convenient access points—one through Tres Ríos and the other via the main road in San Ramón de La Unión, connecting easily with Sabanilla, San Pedro, Curridabat, and other key areas in the eastern valley.
It’s a mountain retreat that keeps you close to everything.
Nearby Services, Shopping, and Health Centers
Despite its natural surroundings, Lakota is just minutes from top-tier services. Residents enjoy quick access to supermarkets like Auto Mercado and Fresh Market, and to Aleste Mall, which features a branch of Clínica Bíblica, restaurants, and high-end shops.
Additional options such as Ciudad del Este with its movie theater, and Momentum Pinares with medical offices, and a wide variety of international dining options, make daily life both convenient and enjoyable.
If you are looking for a luxury home in a private, exclusive setting close to top schools and city amenities, Lakota may be exactly what you’ve been searching for.
