Awesome view of Lake Arenal
Arenal was a beautiful paradise nestled in the jungle-mountains of Costa Rica. I could have spent much more time here, but sadly only had a day. There are TONS of outdoor activities, shop around until you find the right one for you!
I have not seen a view with a sunset like this in my life. Costa Rica is an amazing place!

It was a unique place to stay, not far from Fortuna but it was away from the large groups of tourists. The ducks that lived on the little lake there were good at patrolling the property.
