Long Description
Villa 49 is a turnkey one bedroom, one bathroom villa for sale inside Playa Lagarto Eco Development, a gated residential community in the district of Veintisiete de Abril, Santa Cruz, Guanacaste. Built in 2018 and offered fully furnished at $125,000, it is one of the most accessible entry points into gated community real estate on Costa Rica's northern Pacific coast.
The villa sits on a 267 square meter lot with 84 square meters of living space, all on a single level. The floor plan opens into a combined living, dining and kitchen area under vaulted ceilings, which keeps the space bright and feeling considerably larger than the square meters suggest. Porcelain tile runs throughout. The kitchen is fully equipped with a full size refrigerator, electric range and oven, microwave and generous cabinet storage, and it looks directly out over the living area so a cook is never separated from guests.
The bedroom is on the same level and holds a queen bed, a split air conditioning unit, a ceiling fan and a sliding glass door that opens onto the terrace. Windows on two sides pull in cross breezes and frame the treetops and tile rooftops of the community. A full bathroom serves the bedroom and the living area. Split air conditioning units and ceiling fans are installed in both the bedroom and the main living space.
Outside, a covered terrace runs along the front of the villa with room for a table, chairs and a hammock. It faces landscaped gardens and mature trees rather than a neighboring wall, which is what makes these villas feel private despite their size. This is the part of the property that gets used most, and it is where mornings with coffee and evenings after the beach tend to happen.
Playa Lagarto Eco Development is a gated community covering roughly 1,100 acres of dry tropical forest, with 24 hour security at the entrance. Owners have access to three swimming pools, a covered yoga pavilion, an on-site restaurant and maintained common gardens throughout the property. Howler monkeys, parrots, iguanas and coatis move through the trees on a daily basis, which is a large part of why buyers choose this pocket of Guanacaste over the busier beach towns.
The location is quiet without being isolated. Playa Lagarto beach is roughly five minutes away by car. Playa Marbella, a well known surf break, is just to the south, and a fifteen minute drive north reaches Playa Junquillal and Playa Negra, where there are international restaurants, small grocery stores and more surf. Santa Cruz and Tamarindo, with banks, supermarkets, medical services and international schools, are both about forty five minutes away by road. Liberia International Airport, which receives direct flights from the United States and Canada, is roughly two hours away.
For investors, the one bedroom villas inside Playa Lagarto Eco Development have proven popular on short term rental platforms, drawing surfers, digital nomads and travelers looking for a quiet base on the Guanacaste coast at a price point the bigger beach towns cannot match. Because the villa is sold furnished and turnkey, a new owner can be renting or living in it immediately, with no renovation period and no furniture budget. Combined with low carrying costs, that makes Villa 49 an unusually clean cash flow story for a property in Costa Rica under $130,000.
For buyers who simply want a place to land, this is a low maintenance vacation home in a secure community where the grounds are taken care of, the gate is staffed around the clock, and the beach is a five minute drive. Whether the goal is rental income, a personal retreat or a first step into Costa Rica real estate, Villa 49 offers a rare combination of gated community amenities, coastal proximity and an affordable price.
