an exceptional holiday. Great rooms,with good views. Sited next to a river with loads of wildlife and crocodiles. They fed the fantastic pretty birds at breakfast ever morning,and there are giant iguanas wandering about everywhere.The food was from an a-la -carte menu,both at lunch and dinner,and the steaks were fantastic.Also lots of very interesting cocktails.The owner lived on the premises...

Stayed here two nights. It is a wonderful eco setting. On river, near forest, great bird watching. The trade off is room are not great. Beds awful. Bathroom shower awful, little or no water pressure and spray seemed more like mist. Shower head was sticking out of wall. We had to fix handle for toilet so it would flush and... More

This was a truly delightful place to stay. Comfortable rooms, good food and good service. Wonderful grounds with a river running through and lots of wildlife - crocodiles, iguanas, geckos, toucans, squirrels, butterflies, humming birds and lots of other colourful birds that come down to eat the fruit put out for them. It is very convenient for excursions to the... More

This hotel is about 20 miles from La Fortuna/Arenal and pretty far from the activities/restautants of these areas. This was the biggest issue we had, otherwise the grounds are lovely - our room overlooked the San Carlos river, giant bamboo and fields where iguanas were sunning themselves during the day. There's lots to do - pools, tennis courts, horseback riding,... More

This complex is a bit tucked away by itself. On large grounds, it consists of a main building; a restaurant with billiard room; six two-story, eight-room guest buildings; two tennis courts; an attractive pool with a nearby (not) hot tub (no jets); and a butterfly conservatory. The rooms' balconies oversee a river said to be home to some crocodiles. The... More

We can not say enough nice things about TILAJARI RESORT. The grounds are large with lots of tropical butterflys, birds, and iguana's. The restaurant is a wonderful open air restaurant where you can see the wild life up close. The breakfast buffet is delightful with lots of local fruit and Amrican favorites. You see lots of wild birds feeding outside... More

My wife and I stayed here for three days in November. It is a large resort with lots to do as long as you don't mind the rain. The food is not very imaginative and the wine is expensive. Free WiFi is available. It is quite a distance from Arenal and the Hanging Bridges sites. There are several resorts closer... More

We stayed here for two nights. Had a nice large room at the end of the property but could easily access the restaurant with the paths. Staff was very helpful to set up excursions for us and recommending them. Since it was the off season on two excursions the guide was just with us--like a private tour. They work hard... More

I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while visiting Arenal. The room was basic, clean and quiet, with a private patio overlooking the grounds and river. Accommodations include a lovely pool and jacuzzi, medicinal herb garden, walking paths, and a butterfly garden. The dining room is semi-open air with bird feeders that the staff keeps well stocked with fresh... More
