Welcome to Casablanca A modern two-bedroom, two-bathroom home designed over two floors, set in the tranquil village of El Castillo on the southern shore of Lake Arenal and facing directly toward the iconic Arenal Volcano. This beautifully constructed 92 m² American-style residence sits quietly above the road on a 1,084 m² lot and offers a rare blend of contemporary comfort, rainforest immersion, and true Costa Rican authenticity. Although the property has neighboring homes and is very much part of the village, it feels remarkably secluded. The rainforest naturally camouflages the home, giving you a sense of privacy while still offering easy access to local services and the short drive to La Fortuna. THE HOME — Modern, Warm & Immersed in Nature Casablanca was thoughtfully designed to immerse you in the outdoors, creating an almost treehouse-like living experience where the surrounding forest is ever- present. Large windows and elevated viewpoints fill the home with natural light and panoramic glimpses of the volcano, lake, and rainforest. Inside, the aesthetic is warm and contemporary. Rich wood ceilings run throughout, adding texture and craftsmanship. Fully air-conditioned, this home ensures comfort year-round. Custom furniture made from exotic hardwoods brings richness and character to each room. Built-in beds, elegant side tables, a work station, and a functioning fireplace in the living room reflect the meticulous level of detail present in the home. Casablanca is sold fully furnished with tasteful, high-quality pieces, making it truly turnkey. THE KITCHEN — Smart Design, Beautifully Executed The cozy, beautifully appointed kitchen is a masterclass in intelligent use of space. Despite its compact footprint, it offers impressive storage through well-planned cabinetry and thoughtful layout. The moveable central island is one of the kitchen’s most versatile features. Set on wheels, it’s topped with a solid exotic-wood countertop and fitted with an integrated gas cooktop, allowing you to prepare meals while staying fully connected with guests. It also serves as a comfortable breakfast bar, ideal for morning coffee or casual dining. Because it can be repositioned, it adapts effortlessly, expanding the living area when more space is needed. The refrigerator is neatly built into a custom enclosure that keeps the kitchen looking streamlined and contemporary while providing additional hidden storage behind and around it. THE MAIN FLOOR BEDROOM — Privacy & Comfort The main floor bedroom is discreetly tucked away just off the main living area, offering privacy and comfort. It features its own well-appointed private bathroom with a walk-in shower, along with patio doors that open directly onto a terrace and the garden. THE PRINCIPAL SUITE — A Private Sanctuary Among the Trees A beautifully crafted solid-wood staircase leads to the expansive open-concept principal suite on the upper level. Floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors create a seamless connection to the outdoors, making the forest feel like an extension of the room itself. Step onto the private balcony and you’ll enjoy beautiful vantage points of the Arenal Volcano, one of the best views on the property, framed by forest and sky. The ensuite bathroom continues the home’s theme of indoor-outdoor harmony. With floor-to-ceiling windows, exquisite fixtures, and a beautiful wood-look floor, it feels bright, serene, and spa-like. THE LOT — Mature Gardens & Exceptional Potential Surrounded by mature gardens filled with an endless variety of fruit trees, flowering plants, and herbs, the property features an elevated covered terrace, a natural viewpoint, where you can sit and take in the beautiful views of Lake Arenal. Just beyond this viewpoint lies another elevated section of the property with clear development potential. A small casita could easily be constructed here and used as a guesthouse, workspace, gym, or art studio. This upper area is positioned far enough from the main residence to offer privacy, yet remains thoughtfully integrated into the landscape. A SUCCESSFUL AIRBNB RETREAT Casablanca operates as a high-demand short-term rental with a consistent 5-star rating on Airbnb. Guests love the privacy, rainforest ambiance, elevated design, and proximity to both adventure and tranquility. Its strong rental history underscores the property’s investment value and income potential. WHY CASABLANCA IS AN ATTRACTIVE PURCHASE Casablanca stands out as an excellent buy for investors seeking a high-performing, low-maintenance property in one of the region’s most desirable nature-centric villages. As demand continues to spill over from La Fortuna, El Castillo has become a quiet premium pocket with strong year-round occupancy. This modern American-style home already holds a consistent 5-star Airbnb rating, offers beautiful volcano and lake glimpses, and benefits from a calmer, more exclusive environment with far less competition than La Fortuna. For buyers seeking reliable returns, strong guest appeal, and long-term value in a wellness-driven micro-destination, Casablanca is a compelling and rare opportunity. A PLACE UNLIKE ANYWHERE ELSE Costa Rica has many towns with volcano vistas and jungle excursions, but El Castillo is different. It’s an intimate blend of raw nature, outdoor adventure, and true Costa Rican culture—packed into a small but unforgettable community. The Arenal Volcano appears from virtually every vantage point in El Castillo, becoming an unmistakable and ever-present part of the landscape. The calming energy of Lake Arenal transforms evenings into something magical. You’re also minutes from Arenal Volcano National Park, the famous Arenal Hanging Bridges, La Fortuna Waterfall, butterfly conservations, kayaking, fishing, Sky Adventures, and so much more. And when you want more services and amenities, La Fortuna is just 15 minutes away, offering dining, cafés, bakeries, supermarkets, souvenir shops, and much more.

Experience one of La Fortuna’s most exceptional development opportunities—6,884 m² of flat, build-ready land with unobstructed, panoramic views of the majestic Arenal Volcano. This lot combines rare natural beauty with walkable convenience, strong tourism demand, and immediate access to essential services. Situated on a quiet road and bordering lush, undeveloped green space, the property enjoys a peaceful, nature-rich environment while remaining within walking distance of La Fortuna’s main commercial and social hub. The land is flat and fully usable, supported by public water, electricity, and high-speed internet access, making it ready for immediate development. With solid, well-positioned road frontage, the parcel is ideal for a boutique mixed-use project that blends residential living with a complementary commercial element, such as a speciality coffee shop, a wine store, a restaurant, a wellness clinic, or boutique retail spaces. Boutique Mixed-Use Potential Residential Component Due to the property’s unobstructed Arenal Volcano views, which significantly enhance both resale value and rental demand, the land is well suited for a range of residential concepts. These may include a gated community of private homes, a cluster of vacation residences, a boutique residential or rental development, or a series of villas or luxury townhomes. Incorporating a community swimming pool and a small clubhouse would further elevate the development, creating a strong lifestyle appeal for both residents and vacationers. Commercial Frontage The property benefits from solid, well-positioned road frontage that is well suited for a modest commercial component designed to complement the residential community. Small-scale commercial uses, such as a café or bakery, a specialty wine or gourmet shop, a signature restaurant with volcano views, a wellness or medical clinic, or boutique artisan retail, would enhance convenience for residents while adding lifestyle value to the development. This type of thoughtfully integrated commercial element would support the community without detracting from the property’s peaceful residential character. Additional Development Opportunities Beyond mixed-use concepts, the land is perfectly suited for a boutique hotel or eco-lodge, a spa or wellness retreat, a condominium or townhome community, or a series of high-demand vacation rental villas. The spectacular Arenal Volcano panorama elevates all of these possibilities, enhancing market appeal and long-term investment performance. Why This Property Stands Out This property distinguishes itself with its unobstructed, panoramic views of the Arenal Volcano and its flat, fully usable, build-ready terrain supported by public water, electricity, and high-speed internet access. Its peaceful setting on a quiet road, bordering lush, undeveloped green space, offers privacy and a strong connection to nature while still providing well-positioned road frontage suitable for a complementary commercial component. The location is exceptionally convenient, with walking-distance access to La Fortuna’s primary amenities and strong year-round tourism activity. Very few development-ready lots of this calibre remain this close to town, making it an outstanding opportunity for residential, tourism, or mixed-use development. About the Area & Accessibility La Fortuna is a leading and consistently growing tourism destination, attracting travelers year-round for its hot springs, waterfalls, rainforest adventures, wildlife, and the iconic presence of the Arenal Volcano. The property enjoys outstanding regional accessibility, positioned approximately 2.5 to 3 hours from both San José International Airport (SJO) and Liberia International Airport (LIR), making it convenient for national and international visitors alike. The nearest Pacific beaches, such as Playa Hermosa and Playa Panamá, are accessible in roughly 2 hours and 45 minutes, offering convenient day-trip or weekend options. Essential services are located just minutes from the property, including public and private medical facilities, pharmacies, and 24/7 urgent care. With paved roads, tourism shuttles, taxis, and local transit connecting the area, La Fortuna offers an exceptional combination of accessibility, natural beauty, and year-round tourism demand, making it ideally suited for residential, hospitality, and mixed-use development. A Landmark Development Opportunity Whether you aim to develop a boutique gated community, a tourism-oriented project, or a thoughtfully balanced mixed-use concept, this property provides the foundation for a landmark development in the La Fortuna area. Its flat terrain, essential utilities, exceptional volcano views, and walkable location create long-term value in one of Costa Rica’s most dynamic market corridors. Few properties offer the powerful combination of dramatic Arenal Volcano views, immediate build readiness, and walkable convenience to La Fortuna’s amenities. For investors seeking long-term value in a thriving market, this site stands out as a premier development opportunity. We would be happy to assist you in evaluating this opportunity and exploring how it can support your development vision.
Situated within the serene lakeside community of Lake Paradise in Nuevo Arenal, this exceptional 1.7-acre property offers an ideal balance of privacy, natural beauty, and development potential. The gated community is perfectly positioned along the shoreline of Lake Arenal, offering residents some of the most captivating views in the region and a true connection to the surrounding landscape. The property is composed of four titled lots sold together as one parcel, providing remarkable flexibility for a variety of ownership visions. A modest 1,230-square-foot residence sits amid mature gardens and open green space. The home’s setting is particularly appealing, as it borders a forested area known for its visiting monkeys, toucans, and numerous bird species, ensuring privacy and a sense of harmony with nature. The property is easily accessible from a main road via a secured community gate, followed by well-maintained roads that gently meander through Lake Paradise, and finally a grassed driveway that leads directly to the gated residence, which is set back and tucked into the landscape. A spacious courtyard at the forefront of the property creates a beautiful sense of arrival and offers ample room for vehicles, while the home itself sits slightly recessed, enhancing the overall feeling of seclusion and tranquility. Cool lake breezes, panoramic views, and a peaceful community atmosphere make this one of the most desirable enclaves around Lake Arenal. Despite its private setting, the property remains only minutes from the town of Nuevo Arenal and all of its amenities. The two-bedroom, two-bathroom home showcases a unique architectural design and thoughtful décor, with an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area that feels spacious, bright, and welcoming. Tall, wood-beamed ceilings add warmth and character, enhancing the sense of openness and complementing the home’s natural finishes. The living area features a custom built-in wooden entertainment unit, emphasizing the efficient use of space and contributing to the home’s open, expansive feel. The spacious kitchen, finished with wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and generous workspace, also features a central breakfast bar that comfortably seats three to four people. Patio doors lead from the living and dining area, opening onto a covered terrace and gardens; a beautiful extension of the home, ideal for outdoor cooking and entertaining. Above the main living space, an upper gallery nook featuring a built-in desk with drawers currently serves as an office; however, it would be equally well suited as an art studio or area for yoga or meditation. The spacious master bedroom with en-suite bathroom opens onto a private deck that leads into a landscaped garden with meandering pathways that weave through the grounds toward several intimate sitting areas. Some are shaded and secluded, while others open to expansive lake views. A large second bedroom with a Murphy bed functions as a versatile guest suite, or alternatively as a quiet sitting or reading area, providing flexibility for visiting guests as well as a useful multipurpose space. It connects conveniently to a generous guest bathroom, maintaining both comfort and practicality. Adding to the home’s practicality, a combined laundry and storage room maximizes functionality and makes efficient use of every square inch. An attached garage comfortably houses one vehicle and provides additional storage for gardening tools and supplies.
