Great place in playa flamingo. The property was as described . The outside pool area is amazing . The house itself needs some renovations- beds are cranky and a bit small and shower is old . We had an issue with our toilet that was immediately taken care of. other than that- it was a great stay. Thank you Tim and Fabian!

Beautiful home with lake views
This was a great base for our activities - 1 hour to La Fortuna and 1.5 hours to Monteverde. We hiked Arenal Volcano national park, visited La Fortuna waterfall, hanging bridges and ziplining in Monteverde (be sure to rent a 4x4 if you go there - roads are not great), spent a day at Springs Resort with a day pass (a splurge but was so worth it!), and ATV tour. First time visiting this area of Costa Rica and it is now my favorite! Our weather was amazing and the house has great balconies for enjoying sunsets and the cool morning breezes. The house was also well stocked. Loved the layout, every bedroom opens onto a balcony. Mary, the property manager was very responsive to my questions and even stopped in to introduce herself. Do follow Britney’s instructions to stop at supermarket for any food items on way from Liberia. There are no large grocery stores nearby, just a smaller market that doesn’t have a lot. Also loved the recommendation for Casa Italia! It was very good. Only negative - lake roads are full of twists and turns and narrow so recommend being back at the house before dark, other than eating at a close by restaurant. The pool is also within walking distance and a nice thing to have on warmer days. You can drive to it but not necessary if you don’t mind hilly walks. This home exceeded our expectations and we would definitely stay here again.

Clean, quiet and spacious home in a wonderful area
We greatly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house. It was clean, quiet, well furnished and had everything we needed. Views are magnificent with great sunsets. The cross breeze was a nice way to keep the house cool and the community pool a welcomed option to take in the wonderful surroundings. We enjoyed our strolls through the neighborhood and of course our trips to the amazing volcano, waterfalls (Celeste is a must if you want to see surreal turquoise water) and other nearby attractions. The house is a bit of a drive to the La Fortuna area but who bothers when one drives through a beautiful country. The restaurant recommendations were very helpful with Cafe Macademia being our favorite. The guided Mistico Hanging Bridges tour was another standout where we saw animals one would no have spotted alone. As one previous guest mentioned the dogs...they only barked occasionally and the owner took immediately care of it. No bother to us at all. Overall a fantastic stay. Thank you for letting us rent your beautiful home!

Amazing property, great views, and beautiful inside. Property was nicely located and close to some wonderful little towns. Only issue we had was the house up the hill that had 2 Great Pyrenees dogs that stood on their porch and barked at you constantly, but worst part was when they did it at 5am in the mornings.

Nuevo Arenal lake house
This property was exactly as described, and exactly what we wanted. Our morning coffee on the deck was started with an abundance of birds to photograph and wonderful weather. The availability of restaurants and attractions for us was perfect. For us, we appreciated the quietness of the property after a busy day of tours. Property manager Mary was quick to respond to any questions we had and even stopped by to check on us. Thanks, Gerhard, Donna, John, and Saundra (Winnipeg and Vancouver, Canada)

Truly a Home Away from Home but by Beautiful Lake Arenal
When we first walked into the house it exceeded our expectations and the pictures on the website does not do the place justice! It was the perfect sized house for our family with two teenagers that each loved having their own room and space. However you could easily have three couples comfortably stay here too. If I were to purchase a vacation home I would consider it an ideal house for myself. The house instantly felt like a home and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and we always woke up well rested. The balconies with the birds in the surround trees and quiet location off the highway made it great to just sit and enjoy coffee while watching hummingbirds, toucans, parakeets and all kinds of other birds. We could hear the howler monkeys but they didn’t come close enough while we were at the house to see them. The bird pamphlet was a great simple touch. It was never hard waking up at sunrise to listen and watch the birds. The restaurant recommendations given to us were awesome and greatly appreciated, we tried most of them and they were all unique and great in their own ways. The owner was always quick to respond and was helpful with any questions we had. We were very fortunate to have such a great place. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Wonderful time in the Lake Arenal area
We really enjoyed our time at this beautiful property! It was left for us in perfect condition and the location worked well for us as it was between Tenorio National Park and Arenal National Park where we had different hikes planned. The views of the lake and the lush landscape were serene. Jim and Britney were so helpful in giving us some great recommendations for dinners which we really appreciated! Would highly recommnend!

Couldn't have asked for more!
Not to only echo earlier reviews, but photos definitely don't do this place justice! Tierras Morenas is EXTREMELY well appointed, with an ideal layout and amenities that made it very easy to settle in and relax. The owners seemingly thought of, and provided, for our most important needs during our stay - it really is everything the description mentioned and more. One point to note, the location is convenient if you have a car/set transportation. We found it remote otherwise, but still managed to to get food etc. (the manager provided very helpful advice in this regard), and the location added to the idyllic nature of our stay. So very peaceful, lush, and beautiful. Our only wish is that we had more time to spend here and we definitely hope to come back.

This house looks great in the photos on the listing but is truly better than advertised!
I came to this house with high expectations, but quickly found those expectations to be exceeded by reality. The house itself is modest, very nice but modest. However the view, and the wild life, and the overall locations is absolutely beautiful. Every morning while drinking my coffee on the back deck, overlooking lake arenal and the dense forest, I would watch toucan’s fly from tree to tree, hummingbirds dart around in the dozens, and many other amazing sites. Then at night I would relax with a glass of wine and just listen to the cacophony of birds, lizards and frogs harmonize. Everything in between those hours were pretty great as well. I definitely recommend this house and would stay again if ever back in that part of the country.

Great property, amazing views!
What a beautiful property and amazing 4 weeks! We loved the views both from the front porch and back balcony. The bird watching was fantastic, and hearing the howler monkey's passing through was an added bonus. The property was very well maintained, and the house was equipped with everything you need for a long stay. We enjoyed walking the property and roads around it - they are quite hilly and steep but a great workout. Lots to do in the area as well - great restaurants, town is easy to get to and has everything you need. We travelled to the hot springs many times, plus the national parks. I would definately stay here again!
