Costa Rica Hotel - B&B for Sale

55 properties

Tourism is one of Costa Rica’s strongest and fastest-growing industries, which makes hotels, bed-and-breakfasts, and boutique lodges one of the most rewarding ways to combine a lifestyle change with real income. Whether you dream of running a beachfront B&B in Guanacaste, a rainforest eco-lodge near Arenal, or a boutique hotel in a bustling surf town, Costa Rica offers turnkey, licensed businesses for sale across every region. Browse the listings below, or start with our complete guide to buying a B&B or boutique hotel in Costa Rica.

Why buy a hotel or B&B in Costa Rica?
Costa Rica welcomes millions of visitors every year, and its political stability, eco-tourism reputation, and year-round climate keep occupancy strong. Foreigners can own a hotel business with the same full titled rights as citizens, and many properties come with an established booking history, staff, and online reviews — income from day one. For the numbers behind short-term-rental and hospitality returns, see our vacation-rental income & investor guide.

Best regions for hospitality properties

Guanacaste (Gold Coast): Tamarindo, Flamingo & Coco — the highest tourist volume and strongest nightly rates. See Guanacaste properties.
Central Pacific: Jacó, Manuel Antonio & Quepos, close to San José with year-round demand. Browse the Central Pacific region.
Arenal & the mountains: La Fortuna eco-lodges with volcano and Lake Arenal views.
Monteverde & the Southern Zone: nature-first boutique lodges for the eco-tourism traveler.

What to check before you buy
A hotel or B&B is both real estate and an operating business, so due diligence matters: verify the hospitality and municipal permits, the property title, financial records and occupancy history, staff contracts, and whether the sale includes furniture, fixtures, and forward bookings. Our B&B buyer’s guide walks through each step, and our bilingual team can connect you with hospitality-experienced attorneys.

Frequently asked questions
Can foreigners own a hotel in Costa Rica? Yes — with full titled ownership and no residency required.
Do these properties come with an operating license? Most established B&Bs and hotels transfer with their permits; always confirm during due diligence.
What’s a typical price range? Small B&Bs start in the low hundreds of thousands; established beach and eco-resort hotels range higher depending on rooms, land, and revenue.
