Tilaran is quiet
& centrally located
Our hotel in Tilaran is located in the small town of Tronadora right next to Lake Arenal. No mass tourism here; it is nice and quiet. We are centrally located from Costa Rica highlights as: Monteverde Cloud Forest, Rincon de la Vieja volcano, Rio Celeste and Tenorio volcano, Arenal volcano, several hot springs, and of course Lake Arenal itself. Lake Arenal offers many water activities that are fun for both children as adults.

Stunning location!
I booked two nights and stayed at Monte Terras for a week. Kees and his wife are wonderful hosts and have a beautiful property overlooking the lake. They offer homemade breakfast where you can choose within a few different options. We saw monkeys, frogs, and different birds during our stay. Kees also helped us to get a rental car, which I highly appreciate. You are surrounded by sounds of nature and a beautiful Arenal Lake. Highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to explore the area.

All that you could hope for...
We spent 2 weeks at Monte Terras. Every morning began with a custom made breakfast delivered to our room by Cees. You could order your breakfast the night before, and even specify what time you would like to have it delivered. The view of the lake and the volcano was as nice as any view we had during our month in Costa Rica! Cees has a considerable knowledge of the country, and gave us great advice. While on the property we could watch a sloth climbing in the trees! While on walks we saw many toucan and monkeys. We can’t say enough good things about our stay at Monte Terras!
