Cahuita is one of Costa Rica's most recognizable Caribbean destinations, known for its national park, reef-protected beaches, and a laid-back town culture that supports a strong and consistent short-term rental market. This property is positioned within walking distance of the beach, town center, restaurants, cafés, and bars — a level of walkability that is rare in the region and a significant driver of rental demand. The proximity to one of the area's top-rated schools also makes this a practical choice for families considering full-time relocation.
The home is constructed primarily in wood, consistent with traditional Caribbean coastal architecture, and finished in the bold, saturated colors characteristic of the region. The two-story layout is open and cross-ventilated by design, allowing natural airflow to move through the interior without reliance on air conditioning. The ground floor features a fully equipped kitchen with hardwood cabinetry, tiled countertops, open shelving, and a garden-facing window that brings in natural light and greenery. The kitchen opens to the living area and connects directly to the covered ground-level patio, which functions as an outdoor dining and lounging space fitted with a ceiling fan and views of the surrounding garden.
The upper level terrace is finished with hardwood plank flooring and serves as the property's primary relaxation space, furnished with a hammock and rustic seating. The terrace offers treetop views over the lush surrounding garden and provides a breezy, private setting that consistently photographs well and performs strongly in vacation rental listings. The two bedrooms and single bathroom are functional and well-maintained, and the property conveys fully furnished, meaning a new owner can begin hosting immediately upon closing.
The 725-square-meter lot is landscaped with mature tropical plantings, fruit trees, bromeliads, and open lawn areas that provide both privacy and a sense of space uncommon at this price point in Cahuita. The grounds are well maintained and contribute directly to the property's appeal on rental platforms. A separate, fully enclosed structure of approximately 25 square meters sits on the lot and currently functions as storage. This structure has clear potential for conversion into a studio apartment or additional guest accommodation, which would meaningfully increase the property's rental income capacity.
The seller also holds title to an adjacent lot measuring 641 square meters, which is available for separate purchase in conjunction with this home. The combined footprint of both parcels would provide substantial development flexibility for a buyer with a longer-term vision for the site. The property carries a clean, fee simple title and is sold turn-key with all furnishings included. Its location, condition, rental history, and expansion potential position it as one of the more complete offerings currently available in the Cahuita market.
