This resort has beauty all around it!! From the moment you step foot into the lobby until you leave the place , you are going to want to stay longer because it's going to be very difficult to say goodbye to such tranquility, peace and natural atmosphere. Needless to say, the actual springs are great with different temperatures set up... More

I have been to the Springs and every visit I am in Paradise. The location is ideal,La Fortuna is great for everything and at the Springs I can sit and recover from the adventures on my balcony and watch the Arenal Volcano in sweet comfort. The linens are the best the room service is at my finger tips. The pools... More

While this resort was georgeous, I had very mixed feelings about it. They run a special where you get a 20% discount if you book at both of their properties: The Springs and their sister property The Peace Lodge. We spent 5 nights at The Springs and 2 nights at Peace Lodge and frankly preferred it over the Springs. While... More

We came here after a great experience at a nature lodge (Bosque del Cabo), and the two places could not be more different. This is a five-star type resort with amenities up the wazoo. In the end, I liked the eco-lodge experience better. Pluses: Our room was just beautiful, and really large. We were in a "family suite" which was... More

This place was amazingly incredible, especially for our honeymoon!!! We stayed at the palm bungalow with our own golf cart which was awesome, to get around the resort areas. The pools and bars and springs were wonderful and right in the middle of the rainforest. Every where you swam or ate, you had a view of the Arenal volcano, which... More

Disclaimer: my wife and I don't see eye-to-eye on this one. While the facilities overall were great, really nice and new and clean, aspects of the design and such just rubbed me the wrong way. A lot of the pools and such just felt too fake to me, like those landscape photographs that have been Photoshopped/tweaked just too much. We... More

Beautiful Island wood surrounding us everywhere, as well as the perfect Volcano view from any room (including the Infinity Pool.

I loved it, it was very luxurious and the people are very friendly and welcoming. We swam around in the hot springs and loved it, it was relaxing and the slide they have is fun. I believe just to visit the springs without staying at the hotel is $50p/p; however it includes food which is very yummy. These springs are... More

The springs has a great deal, $20 for a two day pass. If you're going to spend more than one day in La Fortuna, I would get the pass so you can come more than once. It has great views of the volcano, and they're very relaxed about letting you hang out. The patrons run the gamut from people like... More
