Our superior room had a perfect view of the volcano. Breakfast options were plentiful and delicious. The hot spring pools are stunning and there are so many different ones to try! Grins are kept beautifully tidy. The swim up bar (warm water) was a memorable evening activity. Staff were helpful and friendly. The location outside town feels like a true retreat, within easy driving distance of Arenal, Mistico, sloth tours, other termales. We would come back!

The location is excellent, and the highlight of the resort is definitely the hot springs—very convenient and relaxing! The breakfast and restaurant were also great. The only downside (and sometimes a noticeable one) is the interior. It felt quite old-fashioned (not in an antique way), and the washroom was very basic with older-style fixtures like the faucet and shower. Still, we really enjoyed the hot springs and the food!

Hit springs in the resort are a huge plus. They are not crowded as well. You have different hot springs with different levels of temperature as you prefer. Main drawback is that the cheapest rooms are located right beside the highway and it's very noisy during the night.

The room had a smell that wasn’t great. But appeared exceptionally clean! The resort is very big and we unfortunately got put at the farthest unit from all the activity areas…but with that said. The staff was amazing, food was fantastic! And the swim up bar and thermals where awesome

Overall, a great place to stay. The breakfast buffet had a large assortment of food options: something for everyone. The thermal hot springs were great; hottest at the top and gradually getting colder heading back to the bottom area. My only complaints; the bathroom window was missing a window slat and bugs and little lizards would come in through it, and the roof of our unit was metal so the rain storms were really loud.
