4 Bedroom House in Santa Barbara, Nuevo Arenal
Casa Karon are breathtaking relatively new homes, custom built to take advantage of the beautiful surroundings while still having every comfort. They enjoy views of the volcano, the lake, rolling pastures and lush rain forest covered mountains.
The space
The houses are modern Bali-style architecture. Construction finished in 2013. They are a gorgeous combination of steel and sharp angles with natural stone and wood. Both homes are furnished with custom-made furniture and cabinets made from the most beautiful local hardwoods. The ceilings are vaulted and 20 feet high. There are two bedrooms, in each home three with a view of the lake and mountains (one queen size bunk bed) in two of the rooms, and the other with a view of the volcano (one full size bed) in each. The bathrooms have an oversize showers and a vanity. The kitchens in each house are fully equipped with new appliances, and we provide the basics- salt and pepper, paper towels, soap, etc. The living rooms have oversized double sliding glass doors which opens wide to give the sensation that the deck and the living room are one in the same. Without a doubt, the best feature of the houses are the exotic wood benches and bar that runs along the entire length of the covered decks. Guests can sit and dangle their feet in the air with a drink or meal and take in the majestic views below. If you require less space rent only one house listing number 480908
Also offered for your enjoyment are a fantastic newly built pool with slide and hot tub, and a rustic cave with grill inside. (HOT TUB AVAILABLE MONDAY TO SATURDAY WITH 3 HOUR NOTICE)
If you just feel like staying in, we offer Netflix movies and high-speed internet.
When you venture out, we are a 15-minute drive to do some spelunking in the Venado Caves. La Fortuna is 45 minutes to 1-hour away where you can visit natural hot springs, go canopy jumping, horseback riding, four-wheeling, visit the snake and reptile zoo, indulge in a spa treatment and do some souvenir shopping. Other day trips will take you to magical waterfalls or the crystal-clear blue water of Rio Celeste. The entire area around Lake Arenal is a cyclist’s heaven, with excellent roads and trails to navigate.
It is a perfect place to connect with nature. Our guests will enjoy the marvels of all the local wildlife right at their doorstep. The call of the 'congos' swinging through the trees, gigantic toads, a myriad of brightly colored insects and butterflies, bromeliads growing all over the trees, exotic flowers. Bird watchers will be in heaven here in overlooking the treetops at the toucans, hawks, vultures, hummingbirds, parrots and more.
The houses are located in a spacious gated community 10 kilometers up the mountain on a country dirt road from the town of Nuevo Arenal. The road is in decent condition at most times (depending on rainfall). A rental car is a must, and 4x4 recommended. The development is secluded, yet still close to town and all the local amenities. Being higher in elevation, you will always enjoy a fresher, crisper, breezier climate than 'down the mountain'- between 5-10 degrees difference on average. Unlike many beach areas in Costa Rica where it is always the same weather-hot and humid- here you can experience a refreshing mix of sunshine and heat with rain, clouds, mist, and cooler weather. Our family lives on the property as well with our 2 large dogs. The two houses are separated from each other by a 1-meter breezeway where you will find a washer and dryer (bring your own soap) The breezeway is only accessed from the 2 houses. There are doors in the second bedrooms of each house leading out to the breezeway. The main house where we live is completely separated from the rental units, but it is in front of the swimming pool with eye view. We will never interfere with guests but are glad to be of any assistance if needed.
The town of Nuevo Arenal has three grocery stores, two banks with ATMs, two pharmacies, gift shops, a gas station, a farmer's market and several bars and restaurants. There is also a "laundromat" in town where you can bring your soiled clothing to be washed, dried and folded (charged per-kilo). The town is 20-minute drive from the house, depending on road conditions. Because of the distance to town, we always recommend that our guests do any shopping for provisions BEFORE heading up the mountain. We also HIGHLY recommend arriving before nightfall, if possible, as the road to our house is dark and bumpy and can be disconcerting to weary travelers.
