# The Sweet Escape – Sierpe Commercial Opportunity

Costa Rica's Southern Pacific coast stands apart in Central America for its compelling blend of lifestyle appeal and accelerating commercial momentum. Sierpe, strategically positioned as the gateway to river expeditions toward Drake Bay and the Osa Peninsula, has emerged as an essential hub for eco-tourists and adventure travelers navigating the region's waterways.

**SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED TO $150,000** – This hybrid commercial-residential asset now trades substantially below local market valuation, representing exceptional value in Sierpe's thriving hospitality sector.

Positioned mere minutes on foot from Sierpe's town center, The Sweet Escape capitalizes on its proximity to the dock system that connects travelers to downstream destinations. The property occupies 0.5 acres (1,372m²) and comprises two distinct structures: a multi-unit accommodation building and a standalone boca-bar venue.

The primary 2,500 sq. ft. building functions as a flexible lodging operation, featuring six rooms across varied configurations: two dormitory-style hostel rooms (4 beds each with hot water), two private rooms with air conditioning and hot water (4 beds each), and two individual bedroom units. One of these single-bedroom apartments sits at the southern corner—ideal for owner-operator residence or on-site management. The northern corner hosts a second one-bedroom apartment with AC and hot water, positioned to attract longer-stay guests. An adjoining room serves as office or auxiliary kitchen space, complete with utilities. The layout accommodates future pool installation.

The boca-bar occupies its own structure with bar seating for eight and dining capacity exceeding 30 across two levels. A full kitchen, food preparation, and cooking infrastructure are in place. Currently inactive pending health department permit renewal, the venue represents a renovation opportunity—or can be reimagined as a communal guest kitchen and lounge at minimal cost.

The property's track record demonstrates consistent performance: the accommodation building maintains full booking rates during peak season across major travel platforms including Airbnb, while the boca-bar historically operates profitably year-round when operational. This turnkey enterprise requires only an owner ready to execute and immediately participate in Sierpe's dynamic commercial landscape.
