I saw this in a full-page advertisement on the back cover of the latest “Continental” (Airlines) magazine.

Problem:
A hyphen is missing.`

Explanation:
This phrase appeared in an ad for Costa Rica’s Los Sueños Resort and Marina, so something could have gotten lost in the translation from Spanish to English.

Still, the advertising agency that placed this ad should have at least one native speaker of American English and should have caught this problem.

“With our 200-slip international marina, spectacular view properties, private beach club for residents, challenging 18-hole golf course, charming Marriott hotel and 600-acre rainforest reserve, we are truly Costa Rica’s premier residential resort community.” is the full sentence in which this phrase appeared.

The copywriter properly hyphenated the remainder of the sentence.

When an adjective (“spectacular”) plus a noun (“view”) modify another noun (“properties”), a hyphen must join the adjective and the first noun.

Therefore, what is missing in “spectacular view properties” is a hyphen between “spectacular” and “view”.

Solution:
“…, spectacular-view properties, …”
