Motivated Seller – Price Reduced by $76,000 for Quick Sale

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a newly built, fully furnished vacation rental property in one of Costa Rica’s most desirable tourism corridors.

Completed in 2024 and located in Cañafístula, Guanacaste, this turnkey property is ideally positioned to serve the growing short-term rental market surrounding Tamarindo, Playa Avellanas, Hacienda Pinilla, and Costa Rica’s Gold Coast.

The property has primarily been used as a private vacation home and remains in excellent condition. However, its layout, location, and low-maintenance design make it particularly attractive as a short-term rental investment.

Why This Property Works as a Rental Business

This location offers easy access to:

  • Tamarindo Beach (15 minutes)
  • Hacienda Pinilla Golf Course
  • Playa Avellanas
  • Restaurants, supermarkets, and daily services
  • International schools
  • Multiple tourist attractions throughout Guanacaste

The area is supported by numerous professional vacation rental management companies, making remote ownership simple and allowing investors to operate the property without being physically present in Costa Rica.

Flexible Revenue Potential

The detached guest casita creates multiple income possibilities:

  • Seasonal vacation rental operation

Seller Situation

The owners are relocating internationally for personal reasons and have significantly reduced the asking price from $375,000 to $299,000 for a firm and expedited sale.

This is not a distressed property. The reduction reflects the sellers’ timeline and desire for a straightforward transaction.

Property Information

Real Estate:

Real Property Included

Location:

Cañafistula, Tamarindo, Guanacaste

Premises Details:

The property is located in the highly desirable community of Cañafístula, Guanacaste, one of Costa Rica’s most sought-after regions for tourism, relocation, and vacation rentals. The area offers convenient access to some of the country’s most popular destinations, including Tamarindo, Playa Avellanas, and Hacienda Pinilla Golf & Beach Resort.

Positioned just a short drive from world-class beaches, surf breaks, golf courses, restaurants, supermarkets, medical services, and international schools, the location appeals to tourists, digital nomads, retirees, and long-term residents alike.

The property sits on a fully walled 400 m² lot and features approximately 160 m² of construction, including a main residence, detached guest casita, private swimming pool, tropical gardens, and secure parking. The neighborhood is known for its safety, peaceful atmosphere, and excellent accessibility, while maintaining the authentic charm of Guanacaste.

Unlike many resort communities, there are no HOA fees or rental restrictions, providing maximum flexibility for personal use, short-term rentals, or a combination of both. Professional vacation rental management companies operate extensively throughout the area, making remote ownership and rental operations straightforward for international investors.

Business Operation

Management type:
This business is owner operated.
Expansion Potential:

One of the property’s most attractive expansion opportunities is the potential to enclose the existing second-floor outdoor terrace and convert it into an additional bedroom or guest suite. The modification would be relatively straightforward and would increase the property’s accommodation capacity with a modest investment.

Adding another bedroom could make the property more appealing to larger families and vacation rental groups, potentially increasing occupancy rates and rental revenue. Combined with the detached guest casita, the property could offer a more flexible rental configuration capable of accommodating additional guests while maintaining privacy and comfort.

Given the strong demand for multi-bedroom vacation rentals in the Tamarindo and Guanacaste area, this represents a practical value-add opportunity for investors looking to maximize the property’s income potential.

Reasons for selling:

Reason for Sale

The owners are relocating back to the United States due to personal health considerations and will no longer be able to spend sufficient time in Costa Rica to enjoy and manage the property as intended.

As a result, they have decided to sell and have priced the property competitively to facilitate a straightforward and timely transaction. The decision to sell is entirely driven by the owners’ relocation plans and not by any issues related to the property itself.

The home was completed in 2024, has been maintained primarily as a private vacation residence, and remains in excellent condition.
