Arenal Garden Lodge in Nuevo Arenal Costa Rica offers a rare opportunity to own a turnkey eco-lodge tucked into the lush hillside community of El Castillo. Just minutes from Arenal Volcano National Park and overlooking Lake Arenal, this boutique property delivers panoramic scenery and strong income-generating potential. Its location, only a short walk from Sky Adventures Arenal, attracts tourists seeking Costa Rica’s top adventure and eco-tourism experiences.

Thoughtfully designed for flexibility, Arenal Garden Lodge includes eight guest accommodations. These feature two suites with private Jacuzzis, two junior suites, and one room designed for guests with disabilities. In addition, an apartment with a full kitchen supports longer stays, making it ideal for extended visits. Moreover, a separate rustic two-room cabin with kitchenettes appeals to couples or groups looking for added privacy. At the heart of the property, the central cafeteria and reception area create a warm, welcoming space for check-ins, casual meals, and guest relaxation.
