Villas In Sueño – A Rare Gem in the Heart of Manuel Antonio

6 Villas • Established Restaurant • Owner’s Suite • Successful 20+ Year Surf School • Expansion Potential

This is your chance to own a one-of-a-kind 1.04-acre (4,246 m²) commercial-residential estate in the world-famous Manuel Antonio/Quepos area. Villas In Sueño offers the perfect blend of hospitality, dining, and surf culture, anchored by a surf school with over two decades of success and international recognition.

Positioned along the main road connecting Quepos and Manuel Antonio National Park—with over 200 meters of prime road frontage—this well-known property ensures excellent visibility and easy access for visitors. The property features a paved public road and driveway, ample parking, and all the infrastructure necessary to continue and grow a thriving tourism-based business.

The Surf School

Home to the legendary Manuel Antonio Surf School, founded by local surf pioneer Luis Gätgens, this school has been a cornerstone of the Costa Rican surf community since 2000. It’s a highly respected, fully operational business—offering year-round surf lessons, camps, and surf tours for all ages and skill levels. The surf school has an established brand, loyal clientele, and a highly rated online presence, providing an immediate revenue stream for the new owner.

Villas & Accommodations

The property features six fully equipped, air-conditioned villas, each with:

• Private bathrooms
• Mini-fridges
• Covered patios with lush garden views

In addition, there is a spacious owner’s suite just below the main office—this could be used as Villa #7 or transformed into a larger manager’s quarters.

The layout is ideal for surf travelers, small group retreats, families, or independent tourists looking for a tranquil home base close to all the action.

Restaurant, Pool & Lounge Area

Guests are welcomed into a tropical open-air restaurant and lounge area with gorgeous mountain and jungle views. Overlooking a 10m x 5m swimming pool, this social hub serves both cabin guests and walk-in diners from the nearby towns. The current menu focuses on fresh, local cuisine, with a laid-back atmosphere perfect for post-surf meals or sunset cocktails.

The pool is not only a guest favorite—it’s also used by the surf school for lessons and warm-ups, enhancing the synergy between accommodations, amenities, and activities.

Office & Commercial Visibility

A large reception and office space sits at the top of the property, conveniently located next to the parking area and fronting the busy main road. This is a perfect setup for welcoming guests, managing check-ins, coordinating surf lessons, or even adding a small boutique or tour desk.

Expansion & Development Opportunities

A half-acre of additional flat land adjacent to the restaurant and cabins offers massive potential for future growth. Whether you envision adding:

• More cabins or villas
• Commercial spaces (offices, a yoga shala, a boutique)
• A private residence or luxury home

…the infrastructure and space are already in place to turn your vision into reality.
