Nestled in the serene Rio Santo neighborhood, Evolution Retreat presents a rare chance to own a versatile, income-generating property in the heart of Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Just 10 minutes from Tamarindo and Hacienda Pinilla, 20 minutes from Playa Avellanas, and 1.5 hours from Liberia International Airport, this retreat is ideally located to balance tranquility with convenience. Guests enjoy the best of Costa Rica's natural beauty while remaining close to vibrant beach towns, world-class surf, dining, and international amenities.
Spanning 2 acres, the property is thoughtfully designed to ensure privacy and flexibility, with approximately half an acre reserved as raw land for future expansion. The retreat is composed of three beautifully appointed villas: two 2-bedroom, 2-bath units and one bachelor-style 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit, each with kitchenettes and flexible bed setups to comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests. Custom-made wood furniture, vibrant murals, and tropical finishes create a welcoming, high-energy ambiance perfect for wellness retreats, vacation rentals, or group stays.
The private owner's residence offers a serene sanctuary with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, complemented by its own pool and rancho for relaxation or entertaining. An additional 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest house enhances privacy while expanding hosting capacity.
Purpose-built for wellness and retreats, Evolution Retreat includes a yoga shala, massage room, cold plunge, and hot tub. A sparkling pool invites relaxation amid lush tropical gardens, while the open-air rancho provides the perfect gathering space for workshops or socializing. The restaurant-grade kitchen ensures seamless catering for groups, whether for yoga retreats, corporate gatherings, or creative workshops. Supporting amenities include laundry facilities, a reception area, powder rooms, storage, worker's quarters, and a high-grade security system. A wastewater treatment system nourishes the year-round gardens, underscoring the property's eco-conscious design.
This turnkey investment is fully furnished and move-in ready, offering an immediate path to income generation or private enjoyment. Whether envisioned as a boutique wellness center, luxury rental business, or family estate, Evolution Retreat provides unmatched versatility in one of Costa Rica's fastest-growing regions.
In a world where wellness travel continues to surge, Costa Rica remains a top destination, and few properties deliver this unique combination of location, design, and opportunity. Evolution Retreat is more than a property—it's a chance to create a thriving retreat or sanctuary in paradise.
