Very comfortable porch with pool and view -magical sunsets in Costa Rica.

Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 3 Baths (Sleeps 6)
The Lake Arenal area is a less visited part of Costa Rica with the perfect climate of 80 degrees during the day and 65 degrees at night. The views of the lake and mountains will take your breath away and these views are around almost every curve in the road. Your stay at Casa Sarah can be as relaxing as you would like. The newly tiled pool is the prettiest pool in the area and has a marvelous view. It is always sparkling clear! Nearby you can be an adventurer and take a canopy zipline ride, windsurf on the lake or horseback ride. How about lunch with the tucans at a nearby restaurant.
World famous Tabacon Resort is at the east end of the lake, so make a day of it at the hot spring and spa. Later, dine at the foot of Arenal Volcano and watch the eruption of glowing lava as a romantic backdrop. Yes, it is safe.
Awaken to the sounds of the birds. The howler monkeys can be heard in the distance. The birds, wildlife and lush landscapes are unparalleled.
In the evening, you might try one of the many restaurants nearby or you may wish to have a romantic dinner at home by the fireplace. As food plays a big part in our lives, we have a formal dining room that seats eight featuring a colorful antique Ottoman chandelier and a hand woven rug from Eastern Turkey. We often have breakfast of fresh eggs from our farm and excellent coffee from the region on the patio with a view of Rainbow Bay and the Monta Verde mountains.
This part of Costa Rica offers the authentic warmth of the local Ticos who are very friendly and are living the country life. One can't help but fall in love with this place.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
My hsuband and I live part of the year in Florida and part in Costa Rica. We leave Florida in the summer for the perfect temperatures of mountains of Costa Rica and there are no hurricanes here. We really love Nuevo Arenal and have made many good friends.
Why the Owner Chose Arenal
We decided to buy property in Nuevo Arenal because the views are some of the best in the world, the climate is near perfect and the locals are sweet gentle people.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Our house is very quiet and has beautiful views. We love watching the birds.
I love to cook and find wonderful fruits vegetables in Nuevo Arenal. I get chickens from a farmer and fish from Henry who drives a truck up from the coast on Fridays. What could be better?
