Investing in Playa Potrero / Las Catalinas
Playa Potrero / Las Catalinas sits in the Flamingo & Catalinas stretch of Guanacaste's Gold Coast. At an average daily rate of $204 and 57% occupancy, the market averages about $34,994 in annual short-term-rental revenue and roughly $117 RevPAR — a gross yield near 6% on a representative $560,000 entry price.
As everywhere on this coast, the micro-location decides the outcome: walkability to the beach and town can swing occupancy and nightly rate by 30–50% versus a property a short drive inland. We rank each home against rentals within a few hundred meters — not the whole beach town — and withhold an estimate when the local sample is too thin.
