I was a little hesitant to stay here vs. the more expensive option at the Springs, but I’m glad we chose this one. The included breakfast was amazing every morning with choices for everyone including my picky 12 year old. The grounds are kept immaculate and they literally drain out the hot springs and pool overnight and refill it with fresh water by the morning. The only thing missing from this resort is a small gym. That would absolutely put this place on another level. Definitely recommend doing the horse back riding on site. It ended up being the hi light of our trip and only $65 pp for a two hour excursion all over the property and up to the viewing point of the arenal volcano. Would definitely recommend this resort, especially if traveling with teens as they had a blast on the waterside and pool.

Everything about the property is fantastic. From the hot springs, the pools, the slides, the bar access, the dining, the shuttle service, the location, the backdrop. All fantastic. We stayed in a Supreme Room. Not fantastic. Just okay. Would be much better if we had a microwave and more room to live. Was smaller than I anticipated. The mixed drinks at the bar were not great either. Other than that, the resort is really terrific.

The property has some of the best views in the area, however the rooms we stayed in were a bit outdated and worn, but large. Also they were set far back from the main pool bar area. This made it more peaceful though. The hot springs have many separate areas to enjoy as a couple or group, just wish the swim up bar was bigger. The breakfast buffet was nice, but they had more options 2 years ago. The only issues we had was despite having a restaurant and a pizzaria at the bar, other food options required us to head into town. Over all we'd stay here again.
