what happened to the condos built several years ago

Buenos Dias,
Just curious as to what happened to the condos that were build several years ago. It is my understanding that they went defunct. What happened and what are those units being used for at this time.

There is no such thing as a bad vacation. Some are just better than others.

I think she's referring to Costa Bonita.

Hmm, I cannot remember the exact location but it was a huge complex and there was alot of unrest regarding them using the water supply and the fact that there were so many units. They were being sold individually and then could be rented out by the owners. Sorry, cannot even remember the name of the developer. Some guy from the big island. Heard he may not have been a person with lots of scruples.

Definitely Costa Bonita. I'm fuzzy on the details, but it has been reported here over the past year or two that the place has been mismanaged, understaffed (no one wants to work for these rude neighbors), and in and out of bankruptcy.

The place is totally out of character with the rest of this wonderful island. Lovers of Culebra's laid back charm will not mourn its demise. Perhaps it can be salvaged as moderately priced housing for seniors or perhaps headquarters for a Corp of Engineer clean up crew to clear unexploded munitions from the refuge.

This property never stood a chance to succeed. It was a very beautiful property but it just didn't seem to fit the overall flavor of Culebra. Publicos were very hesitant to go their and their was no shuttle transportation provided by management.
