8 Bed Single Family Homes For Sale

Located just 20 minutes south of the surf town of Dominical and 35 minutes from Quepos/Manuel Antonio, this thriving retreat center and Airbnb rental is perfectly positioned for those seeking both business opportunity and natural serenity. Perched in the mountains above the authentic Costa Rican town of Portalón, the property boasts panoramic ocean views that stretch to the iconic islands of Manuel Antonio National Park.
