Looking for the perfect Costa Rican escape? Come be our guest in this beautiful and tranquil home on 1 acre with breathtaking views of the famous Lake Arenal. The home is built with natural hard woods and stone from Costa Rica and was completed in October 2016. You will not see a more stunning sunset in the world than that offered from our patio. Wildlife abounds with regular visits from toucans, parrots, hummingbirds, hawks, and many other bird species. The home is a bird watching paradise. We also get visits from sloths and monkeys - incredible wildlife.
The home boasts incredible views with a modern kitchen, two bedrooms, one bath, and two amazing outdoor living spaces overlooking the lake with a relaxing hammock. A pull out couch provides a 3rd queen size bed. A wall of windows and double sliding glass door allow for complete panoramic views inside and out. Equipped free wifi, washer and dryer and the most amazing shower.
Within the small community of La Union and less than 100 meters are 3 wonderful restaurants (One Belgian, One Canadian and one Local Cuisine). Just tell the owners Peggy (La Mansion Inn Arenal) and Joanne (Toucan Lane) that you are staying at our house and receive access to each pool and hotub for a small daily fee.
The house is 20 km from the spectacular Arenal Volcano and 10 more km to La Fortuna, the center for Costa Rica mountain adventures including zip lining, white water rafting, fishing and boating, horse back riding, ATV tours, and the best hot springs in the world. The acclaimed Tabbacon hot springs resort is 15 km from the house and can be accessed for a daily fee. All of these adventures can be booked through our friends at La Mansion Inn or in La Fortuna. While staying at the house, reserve a night for dinner at the Ginger Bread House, the best restaurant in all of Costa Rica a mere 6 km from the house. Tell Eyal we sent you.
The house is a 1.5 hour drive on all paved roads from the Liberia Airport, and 1.5 hours to the nearest Pacific beach town of Play del Coco. Transportation is available from either local tourism centers, or we can arrange for our caretaker to pick you up for a fee. The primary tourism bus runs from Liberia to La Fortuna and makes twice daily stops at La Union, 100 meters from the house.
Everything you need is here for an amazing adventure in the Costa Rica jungle, including bird watching, jungle living, and the occasional monkey, sloth and toucans hanging out in the trees above and below the property. This house is the true meaning of Pura Vida!

Wonderful location! Amazing view, with very worthwhile pool to cool down on each hot day. Wonderful breeze at night to cool the house down. Loved being able to walk to several different cuisine restaurants in the evenings, avoiding driving along the twisty dark highway. Loved seeing all sorts of birds and monkeys from the deck. Close enough to Nuevo arenal or la fortuna for activities and shopping but nice to be rural with the wildlife and the Milky way at night. Would definitely stay again.

We had a WONDERFUL stay and would absolutely come again if the opportunity presented itself. The view is stunning, hanging out in the pool was super fun, and the place has a nice vibe.With that said, a few things to note:- the owner was extraordinarily responsive - If you are going to stay at this property you should check with the owner if/when work is taking place at the property next door. This was an annoyance while were staying here- Absolutely check with the owner on how to heat the pool. We did that way too late in our stay. - Note that the place has two bedrooms - youll want to really think about how many of you are traveling and see if it fits your needs- The furniture could use an upgrade - but was perfectly comfortable. - if you are into birds, I cant imagine a better place - the Toucans literally flew back and forth below and above us.

Wonderful location. It was tricky, and expensive to get around without a car - would definitely recommend having a car in this location. Pool was beautiful. Deck was beautiful. Only criticism was that there was building work going on which started very early on the Monday morning, which we did not know about before the booking had been confirmed - and we might have chosen a different property if we had known. The building manager kindly sorted out a pause to the work on the second day. Hopefully the work will be over shortly and you can enjoy this lovely house in peace!

Our family of four stayed for 2 nights and it was amazing. We loved the pool, the beds, and the view. In the mornings, we would wake up to birds singing and watch them in the trees. It was a highlight. The sunsets were beautiful, and the location was perfect. This beautiful house by the lake was a short 40ish minutes from the hustle and crowds of La Fortuna, in a beautiful, peaceful setting. Although it wasn't cheap, this property was a great stay and I highly recommend it.
