"Eco" is an overused and overworked moniker. We all know it. However, when we talk about Ray Beise and his development being "Eco" we are telling the truth in the strongest sense of the adage. Ray has taken an ordinary cow pasture and converted it into an ecologically responsible, low density development that has consequently been filled with nature, with life. It is a great pleasure to offer and sell Ray's estate lots to my clients who become elated neighbors. "

"I've had the great pleasure of knowing Ray for almost 20 years. There is not a more dedicated environmentalist in Costa Rica. Ray's turned a barren landscape into a lush tropical jungle retreat - a place of peace and serenity that has attracted wildlife to return and flora to regain control of the land. We built our home in Ray's paradise because we believe in his vision and his execution. Whatever project Ray is involved in you know you'll get a passionate, driven partner in the deal."

"Ray, is passionate about the environment and how we can be hands on in creating a more sustainable world. In my experience, Ray is totally committed to any project that meets his high standards. If you are looking for someone to give 120% to a project, Ray is your guy. Very knowledgeable about many fields of endeavor, bi-lingual, and a lover of the plant and animal kingdoms."

“In the ten years I've known Ray Beise, he's always been professional. What was basically cow pasture 30 years ago, is now a peaceful, protected, indigenous, mountainside, 250-acre forest in Costa Rica; it's simply amazing! Ray's provided a shining example of what can be done to restore land back to it's natural state. It is well worth a trip to Pura Jungla to meet this exceptional individual and to see and experience firsthand what he has accomplished."

"Ray has a genius for creating a refuge from an increasingly unnatural World. Ray's Pura Jungla treehouses are perfect for those seeking the ultimate in comfort, inspiration and an environmentally sustainable future.”

"I am a developer of lands adjacent to Ray and have gotten to know him over the last 10 years. We co developed a public road extension together as well. Ray has always been upfront, honest and hard working for his projects and his clients from what I can see. I strongly recommend Ray firstly as a person of outstanding integrity and as a businessman as well. "

"Working with Ray has been a true inspiration. His endless dedication to restoring the nature preserve Pura Jungla has restored my faith that human beings can make a difference. He is a visionary man with endless solutions. The world needs more people like this to do the necessary and hard work to restore our planet to a healthy place to be."

"My many visits to Pura Jungla each left me feeling that I had truly spent time in paradise. The incredible beauty of the place, along with the amazing personal experiences provided by Ray and his staff, have left me anxiously looking forward to returning."
