It's 3 bed 2 full bath and 1,300 sqft.

This is because they're much more expensive than other countries in the region and, unlike in some other countries in the region Costa Rica doesn't have the mass tourism needed to get you the rental income that would justify those prices.This being said, it shouldn't be hard for you to break even though since all you'd need to do for that is cover your costs.

3 bed 2 bath. its a pretty big space.

Both units are spacious 2 bed - 1 bath units.

In 2022 I purchased a 3-bed/2-bath condo outside San Diego for $535,000 with intentions to buy and hold.

3 bed 1 bath house for 80k.

Currently I and my business partner own 2 town houses, one is a 4 bed 2 bath.

How many beds/baths?

We've pre-leased ~225 beds out ~240 already for next year and 90% of our leads come from that.

I would vote bookshelf, since in long term rentals, typically, you want the least amount of things you will need to fix, as possible.If short term rental, than Murphey bed would be my vote, typically.
