Costa Rica is a wonderland for those who love nature, adventure and the outdoors. Villa Naranja is centrally located to many important tourist developments, parks and reserves in and around Guanacaste, giving you unencumbered access to a full range of outdoor leisure fun. From the area, you can easily hike through a misty cloud forest, zip along the treetop on a canopy tour or mountain bike through dense, lowland forest. You can encounter the underwater majesty of a manta ray, fish for record-breaking marlin or glide through the Pacific on a catamaran. You can even take in a few rounds of golf or just soak in the sunshine on a quiet beach. Here are just a few activities you can do and see in the area:
Canopy Tours: Securely harnessed and with professional experienced guides you will soar through the canopy from treetop to treetop. You are tethered while waiting on the treetop platforms so you can feel secure to take pictures and enjoy the view high above the jungle. Soar through the air and feel free as a bird. This adventure is a must for young and old.
Arenal Volcano: The drive to the volcano is a tour by itself. You leave the beaches and dry forest and enter the lush tropical rain forest of Lake Arenal. Experience the volcano erupting, take as many pictures as you like and then relax in the hot spring pools fed by the mineral rich waters that are naturally heated by the geothermal activity of the volcano.
Golfing: The Papagayo Gulf is home to three challenging 18-hole golf courses--all within an hour's drive from Villa Naranja. The Melia Playa Conchal Beach & Gold Resort, a Robert Trentjones II course, is one of the best known in the area. But local golfers also frequent the Pacific Royal and the Hacienda Pinilla courses near Playas Grande and Tamarindo. Several other courses are near final construction making the area a dream for those who love golf. Santa Rosa National Park: Santa Rosa is great for hiking. It is the largest dry forest in Costa Rica where you will find birds and mammals of all sizes. The nesting of the great leatherback turtles arriving at the beach Nanciti during the months of October and November is an incredible sight to witness. Surfing: Take the boat trip to the famous international surf spots of Witches Rock (Roca Bruha) and Ollie's Point. The boat can pick you up on the beach just down from the villa and after a short journey, have the stoke of a lifetime. Sport fishing: Costa Rica is known for world-renowned game fishing. Charters can take you a short distance offshore for tuna, marlin, sailfish and the famous roosterfish. Entertainment: Playas del Coco offers a wide variety of bars, restaurants, discotheques and casinos. There is also a good selection of souvenir shops for those reminders of your trip to Costa Rica. Car Rentals: You can book a car online and the rental agency will be waiting for you at the airport upon your arrival. If you prefer to rent after you arrive the vehicle can be delivered directly to the villa. There is a wide range of vehicles to choose from including small compact cars, 4-wheel drive trucks and mini-vans.
