This place is amazing . I originally booked due to the location , right on the banks of lake Arenal . It was ideal for me with good fishing and Kayaks to use just at the bottom of the garden . The accommodation was perfect , one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in , nice warm , powerful shower and all the facilities you need . The apartment was spotlessly clean and the breakfast was delicious. The owners were really nice , genuine, friendly people . They were happy to go out of their way to make sure you had a good time and a great stay . Highly recommend, one of the best places I have ever stayed .

A beautiful compact villa with a wonderful view over the lake. Comfortable beds and nice bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and a nice garden. It's close enough to all the attractions of Arenal (we enjoyed hanging bridges, Zipline, kayak, hiking and watching the local fauna) as well as supermarkets, restaurants and cafés. At the same time it is in a quiet area, so we could thoroughly enjoy the stay with our family. The owner is very nice and helpful. Highly recommended!

It all started with a nice and warm welcome from Huberth and Anyara. The place was super clean and had everything you needed to be considered a Home-Kitchen and cookware, clean bedsheets, bathroom amenities, towels...everything. The rooms were very spacious, and the living room had a lot of natural light. We had morning coffee on the balcony while enjoying nature. Also included is a very nice pool which we used every single day. It's an must have for all people visiting Costa Rica. We had a really great time.

We had such a great stay, we even extended it for one more day. It‘s a great property to stay in, very quiet with just nature around. The club house offers a lot of on top activities, such as table tennis, billiards, on some mornings you can even find a breakfast service. You can also book a massage (I recommend). The pool is absolutely fantastic! The hosts made us feel very welcome. They furnished the house with very much love and with best quality equipment (we have not experienced anywhere else in Costa Rica). Thank you Chris and Maricela, it was a pleasure to meet you and stay at your place!

Our spacious, very clean and well equipped apartment had a great kitchen with toaster, coffee maker, microwave and blender. Very quiet setting with large patio, table and chairs. Our favourite pastim was swimming in a long rectangular lap swimming pool wiit panaramic views of Lake Arenal and the Arenal Volcano. Our hosts Kees and Griselda were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable of the various restaurants, cafes and mini supermarkets in the Town of Tronadora that were only a short 5-10 minute walk away. The exceptional full hot breakfast was delicious and included scrambled eggs, ham fresh fruit and amazing home made pancakes 🥞 delivered to our apartment each morning . Kees and Grizelda went out of their way to make our stay there as enjoyable as possible.
