"Adan and Marianne were perfect hosts and far exceeded our expectations. Communication and check-in were easy and they even called to help us navigate a GPS error (on our part) on our way there. Property was clean and their flowers were beautiful. They gave us fresh fruit and pastries in the morning. Our 2 young kids quickly took to Adan and Marianne, plus their two adorable dogs. Our kids loved checking out the birds on the property with them, and they were gracious to lend us binoculars and...

"An awesome well kept place for 2. Ideal for resting and getting cleaned up for your next adventure! Super close to all the tourist attractions, but away from the main road, so the nights are peacefully secluded from any noise."

"The rooms at this hotel were a perfect size. I liked that the bedroom was separate from the rest of the room and it had keys so you could lock it if you left with all your belongings inside of it. Everything seemed brand new. The only thing was I couldn’t figure out how to get hot water in the shower lol the only recommendation I would have would be to put a nightstand in the bedroom as there is nowhere to set anything. Overall, it was an excellent stay, very very clean nice location."

"An incredible property immersed into the rainforest. So much to do on property including club rio where you felt even more remote. We enjoyed the hot springs more down in club rio than the ones closer to the rooms, which were also great. We saw monkeys and sloths on property as well. Staff were always very accommodating and the concierge staff were also very helpful. We would definitely staff at The Springs again."
"The bungalow experience was so unique. It made you feel like you weren’t in a hotel,
but truly in a hut in the rainforest. We had monkeys right outside our bungalow in the trees. The location was very close to La Fortuna and getting an uber was so convenient."
"We stayed at Tabacón to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and it was truly an unforgettable experience for our entire family.
From the moment we arrived, everything felt special. We were welcomed with delicious drinks at check-in and escorted to our room, where we found bathrobes prepared for the whole family—including our two-year-old daughter. We thought this was such a thoughtful and caring touch.
The complimentary shuttle service to and from the hot springs was incredibly convenient, allowing us to enjoy the thermal river at our own pace. The hot springs themselves were absolutely amazing and one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica.
The breakfast was outstanding, and every staff member we encountered was kind, professional, and attentive. This was easily one of the most memorable experiences of our vacation, and we highly recommend Tabacón to anyone visiting the Arenal area. We would love to return someday!"
"The property was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The rooms were clean and spacious. Food and drinks were good. The breakfast buffet was amazing. The pools were amazing. I loved the different temperatures. The trails were lovely (finally saw my favourite type of frogs). The shuttle bus to take us to and from our rooms was extremely helpful. "
"The room are out dated . We had an activity every day but at night when we wanted to watch. Tv there are only 20 channels. And half blurry.. no apps to connect. And WiFi only works near the lobby or cafe. Everything from spa . Food and snacks were overpriced. A can of soda $5 . At the spa i paid $82 I had bugs on me every 2 mins. I couldn’t relax. The massage it was weak I ask 4 times to apply pressure but since the oil they use was very thick and slippery the masseuse kept sliding her hands. Also can burn 3 times with the rocks . We looked for other spa and found one for $35 I wouldn’t come here again and recommend to check out other hotels ."
