Each owner will have equal shares of the common area. The community is at nearly 4,000 feet above sea level offering the most perfect year-round temperature of 70's during the day and 60's during the evening.
Atenas is said to have the best climate in the world. Although the year-round temperatures are wonderful, I suppose the biggest reason for Atenas' claim to fame is the very predictable rain patterns in the rainy season.
Typically, it is sunny from 6am to around 2pm followed by an hour or two of rain. This allows residents to enjoy productive days during the rainy season (all year round) as opposed to other surrounding areas.
 You'll find great views and the perfect climate in Atenas. |
