Overview

Located in the heart of Cahuita, just 200 meters from Cahuita National Park and steps from the town center and bus station, this established hospitality property sits on a 937 sqm titled lot with mature vegetation and a functional multi building layout. The property currently operates as a small hotel with 9 guest rooms, an owner/manager apartment, shared kitchen, reception, and pool area. While the business is active and generating income, the property would benefit from capital improvements, presenting a clear opportunity for buyers to reposition and add value in one of the most walkable and in-demand locations on the South Caribbean coast.

Description

This hotel for sale in Cahuita that sits on a 937 sqm titled property in central Cahuita offers a strong combination of location, existing infrastructure, and redevelopment potential within one of the South Caribbean’s most established coastal towns. Positioned approximately 100 meters from the main bus station and local commercial area, and just 200 meters from the entrance to Cahuita National Park, it benefits from steady foot traffic, walkability, and consistent visibility for hospitality use.

The layout is organized across three separate buildings: an L-shaped structure and two additional rectangular volumes—set around a central garden with mature vegetation that creates a sense of privacy despite the central location. The current operation accommodates up to 23 guests, combining private and shared bathroom rooms with a self contained apartment suited for on site management or owner use.

In total, there are 9 guest rooms configured for both double and triple occupancy. Seven include private bathrooms with hot water, while two share bathroom facilities. Supporting the guest experience are a reception area with a small retail component, a fully equipped shared kitchen and dining space, and outdoor common areas that include a small swimming pool and rancho.

Operations are already in place, with an active booking presence and a strong online rating. Infrastructure includes Wi Fi throughout, utility connections through ICE, and water supplied via an ASADA supplied system. The sale includes all furnishings, equipment, and operational inventory, with existing staff arrangements open to continuation or restructuring under new ownership.

With its foundation already established, the property lends itself to continued operation while also offering room for thoughtful updates and enhancements. A new owner has the opportunity to build on what exists, refining the overall experience and bringing the property in line with evolving market expectations.

What ultimately drives the value here is the combination of central location, functional layout, and existing business structure. Opportunities to acquire a hospitality property of this scale within walking distance to both the town center and Cahuita National Park are increasingly limited, particularly on titled land.

For buyers who understand the importance of location and are prepared to invest with intention, this represents a chance to reposition an already functioning asset into a more refined and competitive boutique offering over time.
