Description

Grupo Ibercosta is proud to present a premier investment opportunity in one of the most sought-after locations on the Costa del Sol. This established and highly profitable restaurant leasehold is now available for acquisition in the prestigious Estepona Marina. Boasting a twenty-year history of successful operation, this business offers a turnkey solution for entrepreneurs looking to step into a thriving commercial venture in the heart of Southern Spain. Whether you are an experienced restaurateur or an investor seeking a secure asset with a proven track record, this property represents the pinnacle of commercial real estate in the region.

Estepona, often referred to as the "Garden of the Costa del Sol," has become a primary destination for international residents and high-end tourism. This restaurant is perfectly situated in the upper section of the vibrant Estepona Marina, a strategic location that ensures high visibility and constant foot traffic. Its proximity to the main promenade and the city’s most popular beaches makes it a natural hub for both locals and visitors. Located in the sunny South of Spain, the area benefits from a microclimate that encourages outdoor dining and social activities throughout the entire year, ensuring that the business is not limited by seasonal fluctuations.

The establishment has built a loyal and diverse clientele over two decades. It is a favorite haunt for the local British, Dutch, and Belgian communities, while also capturing the attention of the year-round tourist trade. The restaurant is widely recognized for serving the finest English breakfast and traditional fish and chips in Estepona, dishes that have become staples of the local gastronomic scene. Furthermore, the inclusion of authentic Hungarian dishes has carved out a unique niche in the market, drawing in guests who seek variety and high-quality international cuisine.

The business model is reinforced by consistent weekly events that drive recurring revenue. Every Sunday, the Estepona Marina hosts its famous street market, which brings thousands of visitors directly past the restaurant's doors. Additionally, the bi-weekly quiz nights have become a tradition for the local community, guaranteeing a full house and a lively atmosphere. The venue also holds a license for live music once a month, adding an extra layer of entertainment value and attracting a wider demographic of evening patrons.

The property has recently undergone a comprehensive renovation this past winter, meaning the new owner will take over a facility that meets the highest modern standards. The interior is fully air-conditioned and features a comfortable lounge corner equipped with a cozy fireplace, creating a welcoming ambiance during the cooler winter evenings. The layout includes a spacious bar area, an indoor covered terrace, and an outdoor terrace, providing a total seating capacity for 50 guests. The facilities are rounded out by two newly modernized bathrooms, one of which is fully adapted for handicap access, ensuring compliance with all current accessibility regulations.

From a technical and operational perspective, this restaurant is a powerhouse. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, being fully equipped with high-end, recently purchased refrigerators, freezers, and state-of-the-art preparation and cooking stations. Crucially, the property holds a valid hot kitchen license and a full liquor license, which are often difficult and time-consuming to obtain in this region. This allows for an immediate transition and continued operation without any administrative delays.

Currently, the restaurant operates successfully for breakfast and lunch, managed by four independent and experienced employees. This makes it an excellent choice for an "arms-length" investment. However, there is significant growth potential for a new owner to expand the operating hours into the dinner service. The local demand for evening dining in the Marina is high, and by extending the schedule, the revenue potential could be significantly increased. The transition would be seamless, as the business is sold as a fully operational entity, ready for takeover from day one.

With a competitive monthly rent of only 2,100 euros, this leasehold offers a rare combination of low overheads and high earning potential in a prime Mediterranean location. Grupo Ibercosta invites you to explore this unique opportunity to own a piece of Estepona’s thriving hospitality sector. This is more than just a restaurant; it is a community landmark with a bright future in the sun-drenched south of Spain.
