The Next Chapter for Big Sky Stables
A Legacy of Adventure
For over 15 years, this operation has been a fixture of the San Juan del Sur tourism and equestrian community. Originally built at Rancho Chilamate and successfully transitioned to Big Sky Stables six years ago, the business carries a reputation for world-class trail rides, professional care, and a deep connection to the Nicaraguan landscape.
The Foundation is Built
-
A Proven 15-Year Track Record: You aren’t starting from scratch. You’re inheriting a business model and reputation that has thrived for over a decade, with established local relationships and a brand that travelers trust.
-
Purpose-Built Infrastructure: The 18-stall facility, 540 sq. ft. on-site staff/manager casita, guest/services buildings, arena, roundpen, and paddocks were engineered from day one to support an elite, multi-faceted operation.
-
The Barndo-Quad Revenue-Base: This architectural asset introduces a diversified revenue stream with two luxury lofts actively booking on Airbnb, paired with two rear 2-bedroom units featuring poured foundations ready for immediate vertical construction
-
A Year-Round Operating Environment: Our arid-tropical climate provides good riding conditions year-round, ensuring you, your horses and programs stay active with minimal weather-related downtime.
-
Lower Costs: Operating costs are lower than in North American and European markets, allowing the business to function efficiently at its current scale.
The Upside is Yours
-
The "NEW" Coastal Highway Advantage: The completion of the Costanera has fundamentally changed this area, cutting travel times and bringing a fresh wave of visitors and residents directly to Escamequita.
-
A Growing Year-Round Community: Escamequita and the surrounding areas are seeing steady growth in both tourism and full-time residents, supporting demand for increased equestrian services.
-
Unrealized Opportunities: While the core business is trail-tested and ready to ride, there are countless equestrian programming options—from specialized clinics to expanded guest experiences—that are waiting for a new owner’s perspective.
The Opportunity
The legacy, infrastructure, and team are in place.
