About this property
The Butterfly Brewery @ Playa Montezuma is available for purchase. This well-known establishment has been a favorite among locals and expats for over a decade. Located at the entrance to Montezuma’s renowned upper waterfalls, this versatile turnkey property features a craft brewery and pub, a butterfly garden, and the potential for a bed-and-breakfast. It encompasses two commercial lots—one vacant for future expansion or additional guest rooms, and the other housing the main operational facilities. The ground floor of the main building includes a fully licensed restaurant and bar equipped with a ten-tap beer and soda system, a souvenir shop, office space, and two restrooms. A spacious deck accommodates up to 35 guests and offers views of the jungle, where visitors can often see howler monkeys and other wildlife while dining. On the upper level, there are three air-conditioned bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a complete kitchen, suitable for private living or guest accommodations. The brewery area consists of a dedicated brewing room, fermentation space, commercial kitchen, two bathrooms, an outdoor kitchen, and a keg-washing station. The upper level also features a small bedroom with a balcony, currently used as an art studio but easily convertible for staff housing. Additional amenities include a bottling and labeling section, cold storage, a tool shed, and a loft designed for raising caterpillars. The on-site butterfly garden, recently renovated and uniquely connected to the brewery, invites visitors to explore a habitat filled with butterflies and a fish pond while enjoying fresh craft beer or sodas. This garden has become a popular educational attraction for families and travelers. Visitors can often observe howler monkeys and white-faced monkeys nearby, along with a variety of birds, as the restaurant is set in the jungle. The property is supported by practical systems, including municipal water and a private well for irrigation, as well as a 56-panel solar installation that generates between 800 and 1,100 KWH per month. The current owners reside on the property and ceased the B&B operation in 2020. This property presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a lifestyle that combines business with the natural beauty of Costa Rica.
