Nestled in the heart of Tronadora, this is the ultimate serene retreat back to nature. With two homes set on one-and-a-half acres of land, it’s an ideal base for multi-generational families who want to enjoy a Costa Rican stay together, yet still enjoy some private time. You won’t tire of the views of Lake Arenal and Arenal Volcano, or the sound of nature in the surrounding trees. And, as part of a gated community, you can also enjoy the on-site clubhouse, communal pool, gym and spa. Locally, there’s also pickleball, kayaking, boating, horseback riding, biking, hot springs, and river rafting within easy reach – there really is something for everyone here.
