About this property
This titled beachfront hotel in Jacó is now available for sale, presenting a unique opportunity to own a property in one of Costa Rica's few locations where true beachfront ownership is possible. The property not only generates immediate cash flow from hotel operations but also holds significant long-term development potential. Strategically located on the quieter south end of Jacó Beach, this hotel offers a more exclusive atmosphere compared to the busier central area. The beach is well-known for its excellent swimming conditions and superb surfing, making it attractive to families, leisure travelers, and water-sport enthusiasts. Jacó is the closest beach to San José, just 90 minutes away, serving as a gateway to Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. The town is a melting pot of residents, including Costa Rican locals, U.S. retirees, Europeans, entrepreneurs, and a growing community of digital nomads who are transforming the area with remote work hubs and lifestyle-driven businesses. This mix of local and international presence supports steady growth in tourism, residential, and commercial real estate. The property spans 5,310 m² of titled beachfront land with direct access to the sand and is equipped with full municipal and government services, including medical clinics, supermarkets, restaurants, and nightlife. Nearby attractions include Los Sueños Marina & Golf Course, known for world-class sportfishing and golf, and Manuel Antonio National Park, located just over an hour away. Other nearby beaches include Playa Hermosa, Esterillos, Bejuco, and Punta Leona. The hotel features 30 standard, superior, and beachfront suites, along with 7 apartments, 4 commercial spaces, and a commercial bar restaurant area totaling 292 square meters, providing diversified income streams. It includes a 40-seat beachfront restaurant with an open-air concept, a revamped oceanfront bar with panoramic sunset views, a swimming pool, a jacuzzi, and a children's pool. There is ample parking available for over 30 vehicles, and all rooms and public areas are fully equipped with air conditioning, cable TV, and fiber optic internet. Investment highlights include the rarity of titled beachfront land in Costa Rica, a cash-flowing hotel operation with potential for growth, and future development possibilities with plans and renderings for two towers comprising 140 condo units. The south Jacó beachfront location offers a quieter, more appealing setting with better swimming conditions and strong surfing appeal, alongside a diverse community of locals, retirees, U.S. residents, and a rising number of digital nomads. There is potential for upside through renovation, repositioning, or mixed-use condo/hotel development. This property represents one of Jacó’s strongest investment opportunities, combining the scarcity of titled beachfront land with the stability of an operating hotel and mixed-use commercial space, along with the potential for future condo development.
