Scott Cutter
Co-Founder & Local Operations
Scott Cutter, originally from Birmingham, Alabama, first came to Costa Rica in 1997 after graduating from the University of Colorado at Boulder with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Spanish. After arriving, he traveled extensively throughout the country, with a particular focus on the Pacific Coast, ultimately choosing to settle in the Manuel Antonio area.
Scott began his professional career locally as the General Manager of a luxury boutique hotel, where he gained valuable insight into the region’s tourism and hospitality industry. He later transitioned into real estate, where he has worked full-time for the past 15 years. His expertise spans vacation homes, condominiums, retirement properties, and rental investments, along with significant experience in real estate development.
Over the years, Scott has been involved in some of the most notable transactions in the Manuel Antonio area, including major land and hotel sales. He has also played a key role in land acquisition, product development, permitting, and marketing strategies for several large-scale projects. He currently serves as Sales Director for Marina Pez Vela, while continuing his role as lead broker for 2 Costa Rica Real Estate. In these positions, he has overseen commercial development efforts, yacht sales programs, condominium sales, and the broader integration of the project within the local community.
Beyond his professional work, Scott is deeply engaged in the community. He has served on the board of the Chamber of Commerce and has participated in private trusts responsible for one of the first public-private partnerships with the regional water authority, aimed at advancing critical infrastructure in the area.
Scott is married to Gisella Alvarado, whom he met in Quepos, and is the proud father of Liana Rosalina and Mia Isabella.
