This newly renovated 3 bedroom, one bathroom home has a view of Lake Arenal from the glass surrounded Forest Room and you can see Volcano Arenal from front yard. It has old growth trees in the back and deep side for privacy. It is located 300 meters back from the main lake road Route 142 in Aguacate. It is on the Turtle Cove Road which makes it convenient yet still very private and only 5 km from Nuevo Arenal town center.
This home has been made more attractive with the added Forest Room showing the forest with its old growth trees which promotes calmness and an easy, functional lifestyle.
The much appreciated climate here is an average 70F year round meaning that you do not need a/c or heat. The nearby town of Nuevo Arenal is a little mountain village of 4000 people with a friendly, compatible atmosphere for all who live here. There are friendly relations here between both Costa Ricans “Ticos” and Foreigners “Gringos”. There are many available activities to have a healthy lifestyle with easily made new friends in this very beautiful, lush, green year-round Lake Arenal community.
The restaurants are very good and lots of preferred grocery shopping is available including an organic store with fresh farm veggies, and other health products. Fish trucks come up from the Pacific Ocean selling fresh fish from that day’s catch so we have good choices. Most animals are grass fed so people are healthier here especially since they don’t eat processed food as much as we do in the States.
Arenal is only a short 1 1/2 hour drive to the capital city of our Guanacaste Province, Liberia which now competes with San Jose for necessary purchases. The Liberia International Airport is conveniently located here so no need for a 4 hour drive to San Jose with its irritating traffic. Liberia is also only 1/2 hour from the beautiful Pacific Coast where you can choose between many Northern Nicoya Pacific Beaches for a day or weekend of sunshine and still return to the cooler climate with its continuous breezes for comfort. The water in Aguacate is considered some of the best in Costa Rica. The air is fresh and clean coming through the many forest trees. Many of the people from the beach are looking to move to our area to get away from the heat.
Life here is Pura Vida. Residents here keep saying how lucky they are to live in such a beautiful environment with tropical birds, monkeys and flowers and orchids growing year round.
