Guanacaste Insurance Advisors
Huacas, Guanacaste ★★★★★4.9 (22 client reviews)
Independent insurance advice — home, health, auto, and rental liability across carriers.
View Area On MapOverview
Guanacaste Insurance Advisors is an independent brokerage that quotes both the state institution (INS) and private carriers, then explains the real differences — exclusions, deductibles, and how each behaves at claim time — before you choose.
They insure homes, vehicles, health, and short-term rental liability for hundreds of coastal owners, and they stay in the fight when claims happen rather than handing you a call-center number.
Why We Recommend Them
Insurance here looks familiar until you read the exclusions. This team explains exactly what you're buying, places coverage with the right carrier, and shows up when a claim gets contested — which is when an advisor earns their keep.

Things To Know
Is earthquake coverage worth it here?
For most owners, yes — it's relatively inexpensive to add and Guanacaste is seismically active. They'll show the premium difference so you decide informed.
What does private health insurance cost?
Broad ranges: healthy couples in their 50s commonly see $250–$600/month depending on network and deductibles. They quote across carriers for your age and history.
Am I covered if a rental guest is injured?
Only with proper liability cover — standard homeowner policies often exclude commercial use. This is the gap they fix most often for new owners.
Do they help with claims?
Yes — they prepare, file, and argue claims with the carrier on your behalf. It's the main reason clients stay with them.
