OASIS — A Unique 8-Room Boutique Hotel for Sale in Manuel Antonio

Property Overview

Casa del Arbol is a unique, multi-level, organically integrated hotel hidden away on a quiet street in Manuel Antonio. Minutes from all the conveniences found in Quepos and Manuel Antonio — from the beach to the marina — it feels like you're far from civilization. Eight discrete rooms arranged throughout the complex are enveloped by the jungle for a rich, tropical experience.

The Rooms

All rooms have new fridges, mattresses, microwaves, coffee makers, fans, AC, safes, furniture, with hot water showers and individual outdoor seating spaces. Four of the eight rooms are equipped with kitchenettes. A unique furniture collection made from a reclaimed wooden ship is featured throughout the property.

You enter through a muraled gate revealing parking for 7 cars to one side and two ground-floor rooms to the left — one with a queen and a twin bed to sleep 3, the second with 2 queen beds and a wheelchair-accessible bathroom (an important accommodation for a Costa Rican hotel license). Past the parking sits a one-bedroom cottage with kitchen, queen bed, and veranda facing the creek below.

Owner's Suite & Chef's Kitchen

Ascend the main set of steps to the principal level — pass an outdoor stone jacuzzi beloved by guests, then through sliding glass doors into the owners' split-level suite. The focal point is the chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line professional equipment: high-powered espresso machine, two built-in refrigerators plus a pantry fridge, two stoves, a propane range top, dishwasher, and counter seating for four. The patio adds a vertical meat smoker, hibachi grill, and BBQ grill. Blue cabinets, terracotta tile floor, and a solid teak hand-made dining table seating 6 anchor the living space. Behind the kitchen: a large laundry area and an office with bathroom. The suite has two bedrooms — one currently a complete gym (all equipment included), the other with a queen and ensuite bath.

Pool, Tiki Bar & Tree House Rooms

The common recreation area centers on a natural stone pool with waterfall feature, an outdoor tiki bar with washroom and storage, and 3 poolside suites — each with queen beds and full amenities (one with a jacuzzi tub). The final two rooms — the Tree House Rooms — sit several flights up overlooking the main hotel, with king beds, compelling balconies, and a connecting door so they can be offered together for families or groups. En route is the Air Garden viewing platform (plumbing and electricity already installed if you want to add a studio room) — perfect for jungle viewing or yoga.

Infrastructure & Operations

Three WiFi networks, security cameras throughout, cable and internet, smart TVs in every room. Operated with 5 staff, all able to do double duty. Handmade solid cypress doors are uniquely designed to identify each room. The chef-owner has planted edible plants throughout; the property sits beside a local creek that leads to a waterfall about a 30-minute hike away.

Turnkey Investment

This is a turnkey investment opportunity — everything but the art is included in the purchase price. The current owner has developed the business into a successful family-friendly hotel. A new owner could continue to expand the existing model or pivot in any direction — the property is highly adaptable.
