Property Description
Calle Marina 9181, Ponce – Spanish Colonial Treasure in the Heart of Ponce
Step into history with this Spanish Colonial jewel built in 1897, protected by the Instituto de Cultura Puertorriqueña, and located just steps from Ponce's iconic landmarks, Casa de Bombas and Parque Las Delicias.
This rare offering combines two separate deeds totaling 1,058.89 m² (11,399 ft² / 0.26 acres): a majestic historic building and an adjoining lot, providing unparalleled potential for development in Puerto Rico's cultural capital.
The two-level historic structure encompasses approximately 7,890 ft² of construction, including two commercial spaces and a large central patio. Although damaged by fire in 2023, it retains its architectural character and invites a visionary transformation. Its layout is ideal for the development of a boutique hotel with up to 10 rooms, 2 commercial storefronts, and a rear courtyard perfect for a pool, outdoor dining, and entertainment areas.
The adjoining lot enhances the project's potential, offering space for parking or an additional 15–20 rooms. Together, both lots create the possibility of a boutique hotel concept with 25–30 rooms in total, seamlessly blending history with modern hospitality.
This project is also eligible for Tourism Incentives under Act 60, enabling investors to recover up to 40% of their total investment. Preliminary plans and designs are available, making it easier for investors to envision the full potential of this unique opportunity.
Whether imagined as a flagship boutique hotel, a cultural hospitality project, or a mixed-use property with commercial storefronts, Calle Marina 9181 offers a blank canvas in an exceptional location. The property is being sold AS IS – WHERE IS, cash only, with the possibility of seller financing (50% down).
Ponce, known as “La Perla del Sur”, is Puerto Rico's second-largest city, celebrated for its museums, music, architecture, and vibrant cultural life. The location places future guests within walking distance of the city's main attractions, while still offering privacy and scale for a transformative development.
This is more than a property—it's a chance to restore a piece of Puerto Rico's history and turn it into a world-class tourism destination.
