Eco Tours Costa Rica Volcano Arenal Accommodations

"Eco-Tours" is ever more popular here in "Costa Rica. With "Rain Forests" surrounding "Arenal Volcano" in Central Costa Rica, adventure never ends. "Ecology" is the main them of the "Country of Green". After "Retirement" I left "Florida" and the stress of the " United States". For 2 years, I have enjoyed the "Costa Rican Animals" that I see daily, for my Home is 300 yards from the "Rain Forest" at the Base of "Arenal Volcano".

I see "Tourists in Town daily, they are all looking forward to the "Wildlife Adventures" that are offered here in "Costa Rica". The "Rain Forests" are  so many different shades of Green during the day, you will be amazed. I am lucky enough to have found an excellent peice of "Real Estate" at the Base of  the "Volcano"

"Tours" in "Costa Rica" are plentiful, if you desire a personalized Tour may I suggest Johan Peraza who will provide you with a true "Adventure" in "Costa Rica". Before relocating from "Florida" to "Costa Rica" we met Johan at "Arenal Oasis Eco-Lodge".http://arenaloasis.com/  . Johan though only 34 has lived in the "United States" yet loves "Costa Rica" for the "Wildlife" that is found here. Knowledgeable is all the "Bird Species to be found here for he lived next to the "Rainforest" of the House I now own. 
He loves to Specialize in "Tours for all ages, yet Senior Citizens are his specialty". Even though you are wearing a few years, that does not mean "Adventure" is impossible. For those that love "Nature", may I suggest "Arenal Oasis Eco-Lodge" for a Private Rustic Cabin, surrounded by Canopies of Trees, Fruits, "Bird Species of all kinds". 
For day Trips you and Johan can work out "Waterfalls, Volcano Night Tours, Canoe Trips" and much more including "Fishing" on Fabulous and Famous "Lake Arenal". The Tranquility of "Costa Rica" will relax you due to the stress I see daily going on in the "United States". Being from "Florida" I am glad Retirement brought me to LaFortuna, with perfect weather and fabulous people. The Country of "Green Forests" of which the Protected "Forests" have Animals, Birds and everchanging "Volcano" Views....
Personalized "Vacation" service for "Tourists" is his motto... phone from "United States" is 01150683462245, or you may contact me with question at cocoavillage1@yahoo.com.

Just Half a mile to the "Waterfall" that run off "Volcano Arenal" one of the main "Tourist" destinations in "Costa Rica.
The Family Run Lodge has now put together a "Senior Adventure " Package for those that love adventures and "Nature".

The average Temperature is 78 during the day and low 70's at night. After living in "Florida" for 30 years and as a Doctor I specialized in "senior care", I felt obliged to let you know that why sit at home in the " United States" for Costa Rica can be an excellent choice for a relaxing, safe vacation.
