About this space

Come stay at the rental home that offers the services of a fine hotel. The entire home, pool house, grounds, trails, and amenities are exclusively for the use of your group during your stay. On-site chef services, complete transport arrangements, and a great breakfast are included in the rental rate. All tours can be arranged for you so that you spend your vacation having fun instead of trying to plan your next activity. Let us help you tailor your vacation to exactly what you want. We have been in the Lake Arenal area for over 18 years and can advise you and your special group on the tours you will truly enjoy, steering you clear of tourist traps. Let us help you make the most of your vacation by offering our years of local experience and contacts. Take full advantage of having a friend in the area right here at The Sunset.

Adventure at every turn: Lake Arenal is the premier adventure spot in Costa Rica for windsurfing, canopy tours, lake fishing, boat tours, jungle hiking trails, quad rentals, kite surfing, horseback riding, kayaking, swimming in an extinct volcanic crater, spelunking, and more. Enjoy the many adventures available or simply relax in our indoor glass pool and jacuzzi area with pool table and ping pong, and enjoy the tranquility and majesty of your surroundings.

Tourism with a purpose: In an effort to help the Costa Rican National Park system finance education, outreach, and protection, Red Sunset of Guanacaste will devote a full 50% of each commission gained through our sale of adventure tours toward this goal. This comes with the added benefit of specialized access to individuals in the tour system who make it all work—tribal leaders, guides, and park directors.

What you can expect at The Sunset: Six beautifully appointed bedrooms featuring Costa Rican art, hand-carved beds and doors, with en suite bathrooms. The entire property is a showcase of Costa Rican art, decorative tile, stone, and craft work. Two of the bedrooms feature decorative fireplaces. The downstairs master suite bathroom features a hot tub built for two. A large library and living room area with a wrap-around couch, television, Direct TV, DVD, and stereo. A large dining and presentation hall with a variety of available seating arrangements. Our unique indoor pool house features a diving pool—4.5 feet at the shallow end, 10 feet deep at the deep end—measuring 18 by 35 feet, with an attached jacuzzi heated on request. It also features billiards, ping pong, weights, lounging areas, an inversion table, and a massage table. We live in the rainforest, and nobody wants to swim in the rain. With our indoor pool house, your group has access to all these amenities rain or shine. Many groups hang out until the wee hours of the morning enjoying this incredible space, which is only offered by The Sunset.

All located in the real rainforest—we aren't in a gated community or off the side of the road. We are easily accessed but just far enough removed that your stay will be in the real Costa Rica. A 500-acre preserve lies to the east of us, and several thousand acres of protected rainforest encompassing Tenorio National Park lie to our north and west. A spot of perfect peace and privacy with access to all the great activities and adventures this country has to offer.
