Stays & experiences

Arrive at a house ready to live and work in.

Every Stay506 property is verified before you book: real internet speed, a workspace that works, flexible check-in and a WhatsApp line to a local who organises the rest.

Mid-term stays — 1 to 12 months

For digital nomads and remote professionals.

Costa Rica's digital nomad visa asks for US$3,000 a month in income, lasts up to a year and exempts foreign-source income from tax. We handle the housing side: verified apartments and houses from the Central Valley to Santa Teresa, a contract that protects both sides, an entry inventory and support for the whole stay.

  • Measured internet speed published per property, not promised
  • Desk, chair and light that hold up to a full working day
  • Monthly discount rather than nightly rates
  • Stay + Cowork packages with partner spaces
  • Practical help with SIM, bank, immigration and CCSS paperwork
  • Referral perk: a month of yoga or two surf lessons
