Everything at this property was wonderful. I traveled here with my husband and two little kids and we had three bedrooms to spread out and sleep well, and the house had everything we needed-- towels, extra bedding, and everything in the kitchen to cook our own food if we didn't feel like venturing out. The property is lovely, the views are breathtaking, and Bev and her staff are incredibly kind and helpful. This part of Costa Rica has very tricky dirt roads, so that's my only complaint, but it's not the fault of the property! Just be sure to do your shopping or go out to eat BEFORE you venture up the hill to the house.

Wonderful Lush Location

We had an amazing stay at this location. The views were fantastic and the space was laid out really well. The master had what we called a sitting shower vs regular, but we had guessed as much from the pictures. The breakfast that was available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays was very good and a great way to start the day. We saw so many hummingbirds we lost count and were visited by toucans as well right in the yard! It is conveniently located from the airport and easily accessible; however, if you plan to explore the area towards Monte Verde I would recommend 4-wheel drive or at least a vehicle higher off the ground with good traction (not necessary unless you are going to that area as the house itself is perfectly accessible). Bev was super friendly, helpful, and accessible for any needs we might have. There are a couple of little towns near with excellent little restaurants and a grocery store available. We highly recommend this location!!

About the host

Hosted by Bev Sheatz

My husband and I raised four wonderful sons who are now young adults scattered across the United States pursuing their careers. We wanted a place in a tropical paradise where everyone couldn't wait to come for family reunions, and this place is perfect! We learned that there are nonstop flights to Liberia from Los Angeles, Denver, Charlotte, New York City, Houston, Miami, etc,. so it would make it easier for friends and family to get together. Our family loves to laugh, experience the world, and, most of all, have FUN!! Bev, the owner of Vistas del Lago, is a wealth of information and gave us a list of incredible adventures for us to enjoy in the area. We've already had our first family reunion there. (Those are two of my sons holding a toucan for the first time in my Owner Photo.) There are so many more adventures Bev has told us about (like the waterfall tour on horseback and riding the catamaran on Lake Arenal), that we can't wait to go back!

Why they chose this property

My close friend invited me to her house in Vistas del Lago. She had shown me photos of the property, but, when I saw it in person, it took my breath away. All of the other owners and vacationers who shared this gorgeous vacation community were over-the-top nice and welcoming to all guests. The timing was perfect, because one couple was retiring to Houston, and had just put this house up for sale. I called my husband (who agreed to buy it, sight unseen), purchased the property on the spot, and vowed to share this gorgeous piece of the Earth with other travelers. Since then, I introduced this place to my husband and sons. We ALL love this place!! There's so much to do in Costa Rica, but, when I travel, my family's safety is paramount. The 24-hour security guards are wonderful, and the water was so pure, we could drink it straight from the faucet. I have not bought a single bottle of water in Costa Rica yet!!

What makes this property unique

Vistas del Lago is by far the most beautiful place I have ever seen. This property has banana trees, mango trees, avocado trees, orange trees, and many other fruit trees. Everyone shares the bounty of the Earth as it comes into season. We brought loads of our bananas to the clubhouse, and others brought mangoes, tomatoes, etc. There is a giant herb garden right outside the kitchen. Weekly renters are welcomed like family, and there are owners from France, Canada, Poland, etc. Bev, the owner and manager of Vistas, is one of the kindest and most welcoming people I have ever met. She lives there full-time, and her husband Brad made a trail through the rain forest that leads to a Jack-and-the-Beanstalk tree. People enjoy walking on this trail with their children or grandchildren and viewing monkeys and toucans. This is all behind the private gates of Vistas del Lago, so I always felt safe and protected, which is so important when visiting a foreign country.
