About this property

Villa on Lake Arenal - Adventure + Relaxation - Quiet Gated Community

Unplug and breathe in life! Lake Breeze Villa is located in a secluded, quiet, gated community of just 16 homes on the prime north shore of fabulous Lake Arenal. 

The downstairs master bedroom has a king bed with windows on three sides for a wonderful indoor-outdoor feel. It has air conditioning and a desk that digital nomads can set up space with an attached spacious multi-shelf built-in wooden closet. It also connects to the downstairs bathroom featuring hot water for the shower and double vanity.

The upstairs master bedroom also has a king bed with doors leading to the expansive wrap around terrace. It connects to a bathroom which features hot water, a tub, and double vanity with access to the amazing outdoor shower. There is also air condition unit and a wooden desk to set up workspace and large vaulted ceiling with a walk-in closet.

The third bedroom (bunkroom) features a queen bed and two sets of bunkbeds, built long and sturdy enough to specifically accommodate adult lengths and weights. There is an air condition unit and a tall dresser for storing clothing. There are also two doors to access balconies. You can enter the room off the upstairs living room or via the hallway.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a gas range, dishwasher, refrigerator with icemaker and a porcelain farm sink. There is a full set of cookware and silverware/utensils, and a charcoal grill to use. We prefer to eat outside in the Breezeway, but there is also indoor seating at the dining bar and around the island. There is a coffee maker, juicer, and blender so you can taste all the goodness of the local flavors. Check the yard adjacent to the driveway to see if the avocado and lime trees have gifted you ripe fruit for your taking. Opening the barndoor windows allows for the most amazing cross ventilation breezes carrying the sounds of birds and monkeys. If you must plug in, the kitchen also offers strong fiber optic internet signal with space for setup.

The home also includes a washer and dryer if you are considering a longer term rental and/or so you can consider packing lighter and washing your wardrobe after all your fun excursions.

Outside is where it's at! We have 3 unique levels of outdoor living for your enjoyment. The Breezeway on the ground floor has a couch, chairs, and glass topped table, along with a wood fireplace to cozy up to on the slightly cooler evenings. One level up, you'll find the Terrace accessible from every room upstairs which provides 180 degrees of magnificent views and nature watching as tropical birds often perch on the railing. Under the canopy is one of our favorite spots to lean back in the lounge chairs and read a book or have a massage. It is also invigorating to experience the outdoor shower at dusk. Even higher, the Sky Deck is a great spot for yoga in the morning, lounging with binoculars during the day, a cocktail or frozen drink at sunset, or moon and star gazing in a dark-sky setting. The Sky Deck is a unique feature to our home providing a 360 degree view including jungle, lake, and even the top cone of the Arenal Volcano. We also have a 2-Person Kayak and 2 Stand-Up Paddleboards for you to explore our stunning section of Lake Arenal, upon request.

Our home is just 2 miles from the charming village of Nuevo Arenal, where all of your necessities can be met.  You will find several grocery stores, excellent highly-rated restaurant options, a bank, a bus stop to Tilaran and La Fortuna, and other essential services to ensure a great stay. Our home is less than 30 miles from the bustling, more touristy town of La Fortuna; home of Arenal Volcano. The drive is on a beautiful winding road adjacent to the lake often crossed by coatimundi and some vendors selling pipa fria (coconut water) in recently chopped coconuts.

Lake Arenal is home to countless outdoor attractions suitable for every type of adventurer including hiking, ziplining, canopy / hanging bridge tours, canyoning, ATVs, stand up paddling (SUPing), kayaking, wind surfing, river rafting, hot springs, fishing, horse back riding, volcanos, mountain biking, waterfalls, butterfly gardens, caves, animal reserves, bird watching, coffee & chocolate tours.  All of these activities are easily accessible from our home, Lake Breeze Villa.
If you can’t tell, we absolutely love it here on Lake Arenal, and we know you will as well.

Perfect getaway

Loved this property ! Kristen was very helpful in assisting with anything we needed. Loved waking up to all the beautiful birds on the patio each morning. Our favorite thing was stargazing on the top deck at night, what a show!

Great stay in Lake Arenal

My family and I stayed at the villa for 3 nights. While it takes a bit of time to get used to the layout of the house, we had a wonderful stay. Our family of four had room to spread out. And, the property manager Kirsten was incredibly helpful and attentive. The nearby town of Nuevo Arenal has a lot to offer, especially Moya's Place. From the villa we were able to experience all that this area has to offer. We would highly recommend!

All I can say is WOW

The best rental we have ever stayed in. Beautiful location, beautiful clean and well stocked house. Wake up to howler monkeys and bird sounds every morning. Be aware there is no AC in this house but the breeze is always blowing and the nights are cool. Great location to explore the surrounding area. We did day trips to Tenorio Volcano, Venato Caves and just a site seeing drive to check out the windmills nearby. Very safe neighborhood with friendly neighbors. House manager was very easy to get ahold of, gave us recommendations for local restaurants and answered questions about the house. This is a definite stay again location for us.

Lake Arenal oasis

We had the pleasure of staying 3 nights in this lovely and very unique home, on the shores of Lake Arenal. It was in a very lush and tranquil location, in a gated community. There were lots of tropical birds and breathtaking views of Lake Arenal and the beautiful surroundings. The home is a wonderful place to relax and take in the beauty of the natural environment. The home is well located, just 12 minute drive to the village of Nuevo Arenal, where you can find all amenities, groceries, gas and restaurants, and about a 30 minute drive to the town of Fortuna, where there are alot of activities, such as the Arenal Volcano Park, hot springs,etc. We highly recommend staying in this home if you are looking for a more secluded and quiet stay away from the hustle and bustle. Thank you to the owners for sharing their tropical oasis.

Ok

Stayed with a group of 6 and it met our needs. The location is good; close to Nuevo Arenal and Lake Arenal. The host was very friendly and responded to all questions promptly, and the online guidebook was very helpful. However, the couches in the upstairs living room were uncomfortable and only sat 5. The balcony seating only sat 2. The kitchen could seat 6, but with no fan it would get way too humid in the kitchen. This also made cooking fairly difficult as it would just get too hot. Some updates in furniture and new ceiling fans would certainly help.

Thanks for that feedback for our consideration. In the meanwhile we feel the furniture options were presented in the pictures posted when you booked our place and we feel there are a plethora of amenities, nature, and beauty available for the price listed at our wonderful home.

Great location - family friendly, close to all things Arenal

Overall we had a great experience at this location. Upon arrival the place was clean and welcoming. The location is great for all things in the Arenal region (Mistico, Rio Celeste, Hot Springs, etc). The experience of waking up to the sounds of rain, listening to Howler Monkeys and seeing Toucans at this property were absolutely amazing. The only issues we had were the check in/out process. We had to plan a time to meet with the property manager to obtain the keys/fob to get into the gated community and then we had to plan a time to leave. The communication behind this was tough as using USA cell phones in this area is almost non existent due to cell coverage. We also lost power for about an hour the day of check out and had to find a neighbor to help us get it back on. Overall it is an absolutely lovely place and the host does a great job of suppling a good amount of information about the area with their website/app. Highly recommend for families, just make sure to have prior communication with property manager about check-in/out process.
