Spectacular Lake Arenal and Mountain view rental

The house is cozy. We spent Christmas eve and few days after here. The beds are comfortable. The shower pressure was good. The kitchen is well equipped for meal prep. AC in the bedrooms but it wasn't needed. The main house has screens on the windows to a great breeze. The separate extra room doesnt have screens, which would have bern nice. The lake views from wrap around deck are nice. You can spot toucans, hummingbirds, hawks and much more. The lake is out the main gate and a 5 minute walk down the hill. You can take a boat ride or rent pedal boats, kayaks or jet skis. There are 2 restaurants here as well or a few more are a 5 minute drive into the little town with 2 small convenience stores.It is a curvy 1.5 hours drive to La Forttuna. Overall we had a nice, relaxing time here experiencing nature.

Absolutely gorgeous property with an amazing wrap-around porch and spectacular views. I was not expecting the winding drive around Lake Arenal, if you get motion sickness come prepared. Easy access to Tilaran where you can get everything you need, cool little butcher and mini-market down the road to supply your stay if you dont want to drive into Tilaran. The house had a few hornets nests that once we notified the property manager they sent someone to take care of them immediately. The only issue we had with the property was the freezer wasnt freezing and the description of the properties location was a little off- it was actually on the left side of the road but still the 4th property in the complex. Made for an excellent base of operations for waterfall exploration, hotsprings soaking, and stimulating the local economy with tourism . Would definitely stay here again.

Great spot to land and really get away from the majority of tourists. Local restaurants are cheaper, people are happier and it is not that far to all things Arenal. The house was great and property manager responded quickly when we had questions. Only thing is there is just one gate code, doors take a bit to get used to lock and unlock and house is 4th one on the left. But those are just minor things.

I can't say enough great things about this place! Absolutely beautiful place. Beautiful surroundings! No complaints at all. We only had 4 amazing days here but wish we could have had more. We didn't cook but the kitchen was fully stocked with any cookware you might need. I do hope we can come back to this wonderful place and stay much longer! I reached out to Pablo a few times and he always responded within a couple minutes. Thanks for sharing your place with us!

The house is so cute and cozy! It has everything that you may need for your stay. From the kitchen to the different rooms, everything is set. It is private and the lake was indeed in front. It was clean and the communication with the owner was very easy. If peace and quiet is what you are looking for, that is absolutely your place. We got rainy days which made it hard to enjoy the lake. It was also far from activities so anywhere we wanted to go took us at least an hour and a half.

The property is good floor plan and located with the view of the lake. There are two excellent restaurants about a three minute drive. The nearby town of Tilaran Is everything you would need. It is still rainy season which encourages you to get out early and be back by mid afternoon to enjoy the tropical rain. We would certainly consider using this location again

This is a very nice and clean property for anyone looking for a place in the real Costa Rica.

Pablo was very helpful host

We saw many beautiful birds while on the property. The gated community of villas is quite charming and tranquil with a view of the lake. The rental property is beautiful and and host is super easy to communicate with. We are very pleased with our decision to book. There were a few stray cats our daughter enjoyed tending to. We drove to the hot springs and on the way stopped for breakfast at a wonderful restaurant and store with an overlook. The small local town had several restaurants and a small quick mart. The drive in the mountains was so peaceful and I’d definitely go back again! Thank you for hosting us

Beautiful spot, great house and location. We really enjoyed our time there
