Turnkey Villa Resort in Manuel Antonio | 7 Bed / 9 Bath
$1,295,000.00Price
Own a fully operational 1.04-acre commercial-residential estate on the main road between Quepos and Manuel Antonio National Park — one of the most visited destinations in all of Costa Rica. Villas In Sueño combines six air-conditioned guest villas, an established open-air restaurant, a spacious owner's suite, and the legendary Manuel Antonio Surf School into a single turnkey business ready for its next chapter. The property delivers multiple revenue streams from day one. The surf school, founded by local pioneer Luis Gätgens in 2000, has operated for over two decades with a loyal international following, year-round lessons, camps, and tours for all ages. Six fully equipped villas — each with private bathrooms, mini-fridges, and covered patios overlooking lush gardens — cater to surf travelers, families, and small group retreats. A seventh unit (the current owner's suite) can serve as additional guest accommodation or manager's quarters. That's 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms total across the property. At the heart of the grounds, a tropical open-air restaurant and lounge overlooks a 10m x 5m swimming pool framed by mountain and jungle views. The pool doubles as a training area for the surf school, creating a natural connection between dining, lodging, and activities that keeps guests on-site and spending. Walk-in diners from Quepos and the surrounding area add another layer of income. With over 200 meters of prime road frontage, a large reception office, paved driveway, and ample parking, the property has built-in commercial visibility that most Manuel Antonio businesses can only dream of. And there's still room to grow — a half-acre of flat, buildable land adjacent to the restaurant and villas is ready for additional cabins, a yoga studio, retail space, or a private residence. Manuel Antonio is one of Costa Rica's top tourist corridors, drawing visitors year-round to its white-sand beaches, world-class national park, and vibrant dining scene. For North American expats and investors exploring Costa Rica real estate, this stretch between Quepos and the park offers strong rental demand, established tourism infrastructure, and an unmatched lifestyle. This Manuel Antonio property for sale is a rare chance to acquire a proven, passion-driven business with serious expansion potential in one of the country's most sought-after markets.
