Following a Lifelong Dream to Tamarindo, Costa Rica

• Reality

Episode overview

Inspired more than two decades ago by the lyrics of Jimmy Buffett and fed up with Toledo's icy winters, Mike Holly and his wife, Alison, are looking to the sun-drenched shores of Tamarindo, Costa Rica. With a waterfront restaurant newly purchased, Mike and Alison have little time to find a home base. And with Mike focused on his business venture, finding a space where Alison will be comfortable is essential. But in a town with limited real estate, locating a pool, a tennis court, and the Spanish style Alison favors may prove to be impossible. Watch what happens when House Hunters International seeks out "La Pura Vida" in Tamarindo, Costa Rica.
