The Bohemian vibe property was created over the years by the current and original owner a long time local of Dominical.  Consisting of an owner’s home, 4 fully equipped apartments, 3 casitas, 5 cabinas, rancho with outdoor kitchen, an office with worker quarters, and a pool. Perfect for those wanting to live in paradise and run a hotel/B&B, yoga retreat, an airbnb rental business, or long-term rentals. Plus lots of room to expand!

Located across the street from the beautiful Baru River and a 2-minute drive or 10-minute walk from the famous Playa Dominical.  This destination beach town has plenty of shops, restaurants and cafes, a boutique brewery, and world class waves.  The convenient two-wheel drive access is attractive for easy access and can also attract guests that do not rent a car being so close to everything.

Owner House

The elevated owner’s home is upstairs above a storage bodega with the laundry facilities and could also be potential workshop.  The two bedroom and two bath (1 finished and 1 unfinished) home has a spacious kitchen and living room, as well as, an office area.  Large covered terrace for outdoor dining and relaxation.

4 Apartments

The apartments are next to the owner’s home with two downstairs and two upstairs.  Each unit has a bedroom, full kitchen and living room with its own private terrace.  The upstairs units have a door connecting the terraces and can be rented together as a 2 bedroom if needed.  Great for a family traveling or could even be used for long term rentals for passive income.

3 Casitas

The 3 Casitas are located as follows; one near the pool and the other two across the parking area.  One of the casitas has handicap ramp access; which is required by Costa Rican law for an operating commercial entity.  Each casita has its own kitchen and living room are plus covered porch. Great for short term nightly rentals or long-term monthly rentals.

5 Cabinas

The cabinas are situated around the rancho with outdoor kitchen.  Each unit is more like a standard hotel room with bedroom and bathroom. A brand new 5th Cabina was recently added and larger than the rest increasing the total bed count and profitability of the property.

 Rancho with Outdoor Kitchen

A common use area of the outdoor kitchen is especially convenient for the guests in the cabinas since they do not have their own kitchen.  Also a place for guests to socialize and hang out.  This could be a good space if new owner wants to offer breakfast service.

Office and Apartment

The small office has an apartment above it that is currently a long-term rental.  This is also a good place for an onsite manager to live full time if someone wanted to run the business remotely.

Expansion Potential

There is flat usable land available on the property to increase the number of units in the future.  Plus an additional title lot included that has its own septic tank already in place and perfect for a 4 apartment complex to increase rental units.  Also could build a yoga shala to host wellness retreats.  Another improvement could be a dining area with commercial kitchen if new owners wanted to offer breakfast or additional meals with a full-service restaurant.

There is another building site elevated above the property and accessed by another road could be an ideal location for a future home and turn the current owner home into another income producing rental.  Or build 5 to 15 more rental units and substantially increase occupancy.

Affordable Purchase Option

If a more affordable commercial business option is what you are looking for then there is a great option.  The seller would segregate the office, 2 casitas, 5 cabinas, rancho with kitchen, and room to add a pool and more structures for just $539,000 USD.  Review the link to see more details: https://www.dominicalproperty.com/property/commercial-rental-bussiness-in-dominical-of-2-casitas-and-4-cabins/
