The Springs Resort & Spa is a stunning property with breathtaking views and world-class facilities. The setting is truly fabulous, but the overall customer experience can be hit or miss. While there are many dining options, the quality of food doesn’t quite justify the exorbitant prices. We had a great stay overall, but given the cost, we’re not sure we’d return—there are more consistent luxury resorts globally that offer better value for money.

The resort staff knew us by name and were genuinely concerned with our happiness. The food was fresh and delicious from the buffet breakfast to the poolside dining or the sushi restaurant. The beds were comfortable and rooms nice and dark as well as quiet for a good night’s rest after an active day exploring the grounds. We had a blast river tubing and sitting in the springs as well as having smores by the firepit. The wildlife animal tour was incredible. Will definitely return.

This hotel is a one of a kind. It is absolutely a marvel how such a hotel exists in the middle of the jungle/rainforest. It is simply gorgeous, and the staff is top notch! The property is amazing with hot springs everywhere - which are stunning and well maintained. The views of the volcano are stunning. So much to do here - You can even whitewater Kayak on site! There too many things to name to do a review any real Justice. What an amazing place!

Our stay at The Springs Resort was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away. The staff was warm, friendly, and made us feel so welcome throughout our stay. But what really makes this place unforgettable are the facilities and the views, truly next level. The hot springs, pools, and amenities are incredible, and the breathtaking scenery all around makes every moment feel special. We had so much fun as a family and created memories we’ll cherish forever. We can’t wait to come back- highly, highly recommend!

The booking details aren’t accurate on here from what the hotel told us. I don’t understand why there would be an option to pay later when the hotel said we can pay no later than 2 weeks in advance. We almost lost our room, and the communication wasn’t great. We spent 4 hours during a really busy time for us trying to figure out what was going on. We checked in fine, but I was getting charged twice and had to fix it with the hotel and spent more time and stress which was another inconvenience I had to deal with again during my trip and the short amount of time that we did have. I did enjoy my stay, but this was one of the most slippery resorts we’ve ever stayed at.
