Top Hotels Near Monteverde Frog Pond in Tilaran

"The road leading to the property is very rough and would recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle. But the property is well worth the drive. Bev, the manager, was delightful and did everything possible to make sure our stay was enjoyable. The Casa and the grounds were beautiful with amazing views and lots of wildlife. We met some of the residents and other guests at the clubhouse and they were all friendly and very welcoming. We highly recommend the clubhouse breakfasts that are available a few times a week. Super delicious and a great opportunity to chat with others about the Arenal area. We hope to be back again soon!"

"The property is in a gated community a few miles outside of Tronadora. The house is a one bedroom stand alone house with a murphy bed in the main room which was great for the kids to use. The property was very clean and well managed. You do have access to a pool that is run by the community that have lovely views of Lake Arenal. It was about a 2 hour drive from Liberia to the property. We took a one day road trip to Monteverde rainforest which was fantastic. You are also about 2 hours from La Fortuna and the Arenal Volcano. The climate is cooler than the beach area which can be a nice break for those that don't love hot sun all day. Our family really enjoyed our visit at the Birder's Paradise!"

"After staying here with Gerardo, we went to an all inclusive resort on the Pacific coast to experience both the rainforest mountains and the beaches. I will never go to another concrete jungle resort if I can help it. This guest house on a working ranch had some bugs, but was clean, but from the back porch, we also saw two cans, monkeys, found, a tortoise, went on horseback rides, and completely enjoyed and immersed ourselves in real Costa Rica. If you want to stay at a Holiday Inn, maybe you don’t go to Costa Rica? There were quirks with the house, but we loved it. Gerardo who has lived on the ranch for over 30 years doesn’t speak any English, there’s no Wi-Fi at the house, and new grocery stores very close by so plan everything out before you go and totally enjoy your stay in the country in the rainforest in the clouds. if you’re squeamish, this isn’t a great spot for you either. The tree frog in the shower, the beautiful blue lizard under the bed and a scorpion behind the plant. We’re all pretty awesome in our opinion. It is a completely unique experience and one that I’m really glad we did."
