Quepos is the canton on Costa Rica's central Pacific coast that contains Manuel Antonio National Park, and the town of Quepos is the working centre that the park's visitors drive through. It is about 170 km and 3 to 3.5 hours by road from San José airport (SJO), with Quepos on the route just before the park.
Quepos canton combines park-side Manuel Antonio with Quepos town and other areas. Houses lead the current inventory, with land, condos and commercial property also represented. The live table below gives each type its own asking-price range.
Land is an important category for buyers considering a build. Condos and apartments offer another route into the canton, while commercial listings need a separate income and title review. Use the live priced counts to judge how much weight to put on each median.
Long-term rentals are scarce in the current listings. Buyers expecting income from holiday stays should get occupancy and cost evidence from a local manager; this site does not measure it.
The canton splits into different markets. Manuel Antonio is on the hills by the park, while Quepos town offers a different mix of homes and land. Use the district filter or the separate Manuel Antonio page to compare each on its own.
What to check before buying in Quepos. For land, the water letter first; without one there is no building permit. For hillside parcels, a survey and a wet-season look at the access road. For anything near the beach, the Maritime Zone: public for the first 50 metres from high tide, concession from 50 to 200 metres with foreign holders restricted (under five years' residency, or a company more than 50% foreign-owned). Run the Registro Nacional check on the exact parcel.
Quepos suits a buyer who wants the Manuel Antonio coast with a wider choice and lower entry prices than the park hillside, including land to build on. Flying in, allow a full afternoon for the drive from SJO.
