Hotel near San Carlos
2023.01.31
The property needs a refresh and there were several small projects underway during my stay. Rocks were being laid beside the hot pool and contaminated the water and walkway with mud. There was a tree blocking the nature trail near the spa the whole time I was there. Handymen were working all over the property fixing things - most of one day there was a noisy plumbing repair in the room beside me. The food is just ok - it needs more flavour, and more variety for breakfast. This resort has the potential to be a five star resort with some TLC. The location by the hot springs river is beautiful and there is a path on the opposite side of the river that leads you to quieter swimming spots. The hotel tour guide is amazing - Five stars for Frank tours - he personalizes your tour and you never feel rushed. You can tell he loves what he does, is knowledgeable on interesting facts, and will even take pics of you on the tour. The massage therapist is good too and there are several different massages to choose from. I recommend this place for peace and quiet - but it’s rustic.

2024.09.13
We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at The Springs Resort in August 2024. If you’re considering whether to stay here, don’t hesitate – this resort is a true paradise. Surrounded by stunning natural beauty, relaxing hot springs pools, and breathtaking views of the volcano, everything was simply perfect. The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, enhancing our experience. The breakfast area offered spectacular views, and the service at the main pool bar was excellent. One of the highlights of our stay was the horseback riding experience at their Activities Center. It was truly magical! Our guide led us through enchanting paths where we encountered various animals and birds we had never seen before. Costa Rican nature is truly magnificent, and The Springs is the perfect place to explore and enjoy it.

SSabsKebabsHad the best stay here after a very disappointing stay at another property. Luis the property manager was so welcoming and attentive. The property itself is brand new, and tastefully done. Loved the hot tub, loved the towel and linen collection and really appreciated the rain shower. It was a pleasant stay and highly recommended. We enjoyed coming back to the loft after a day of exploring.

My husband and I stayed at Noah’s Forest in October and it was the most AMAZING experience! The location is easy to find, the whole facility of Noah’s Forest was perfection! The best part was the service we received from each one of your staff members. They are the so wonderful! We really bonded with Adrian, you are so lucky to have him!! He made our experience so much better than we even expected. We will be back again and hopefully often. Thank you so much for this incredible experience, we never wanted to leave.

We stopped by on our way back from the Místico Arenal Hanging Bridges, and had lunch. The food was really good and not expensive, the staff were so friendly, and the ambience is great. We even saw wild life :) Would definitely recommend to stop by the cafe.

JJuanK RuzIt's a busget Hostel, so you should not expect that much, it is clean but very old. Staff is cool but wasn't that helpful in some request, probably not their fault, but owners can put some extra effort to make this place better. It is clean and cozy.

SSiriusSkier23Stayed here for 9 nights and loved the relaxation! Wonderful hot mineral springs on the property. Amazing property with jungle trails that are rich with wildlife. This is a bird watching paradise with many frogs as well. Sloths can be seen from the hot springs! Very nice restaurant on-site. Nice staff that were very helpful. It is close to other hot spring resorts including Eco Termales which is splendid. Also, incredible views of the volcano. Such a pleasant and relaxing place!!!

I arrived at night so had no idea of the paradise. I had entered into... in the morning. I was knocked out by the view of the Volcano, the beautifully kept gardens. The staff are lovely and friendly. The breakfast is freshly cooked and very tasty. I discovered a sloth nature trail. about 2 minutes walk from the hotel which I thoroughly recommend and also the Restaurante Rodriguez a couple of minutes walk up towards the downtown area.

Tabacon Hot Springs

__We***54Really very good place. Goed twice, natural hot spring river. It is a bit far from the airport. There is a station about1.3 kilometers away from the airport. You can take the bus to Ciudad Quesada (2.5-3 hours), and then transfer (50 minutes). There are direct buses in the capital, but you have to get from the airport to the city center (buses go directly for about an hour).

Arenal Volcano

CcriskotsuArenal is wonderful. During winter is hard to see the full cone without mist, or even some clastic material falling down at night. However, it’s a gorgeous location to visit anytime of the year, close to San Jose even for one-day trip

Arenal Volcano National Park

南美当地向导YolandaVisitors to Arena Volcano Park are welcome, and the bubble volcanic hot springs are simply too enjoyable. The country is really a country that is brave! There are more than 270 volcanoes here, the most famous is Arena volcano located near the famous tourist resort of La Fortuna in northern Costa Rica. It had a devastating eruption in 1968, and it entered a long dormant state after 2010. Now it is a national park for tourists to visit. On the way to the volcano, you can see many small ants moving in groups and against the mini leaves to the observation deck. The view is very good. There is always a cloud and mist around the crater, surrounded by cloud and fog forests. There is a dining shop next to it, you can have a drink and look at the volcano. The scenery here is too suitable for wide angles, enjoy pure life pura vida! ❤️ For more local fun in Costa Rica, please consult me!

Fortuna Waterfall

乖小咪La Fortuna Falls in Costa Rica is a spectacular waterfall, although he is not very wide, but the water volume is very large. The water mist that sparked when the waterfall fell was very large, like a fairyland. There are many tourists swimming in the pool below, very happy.

Baldi Hot Springs

CcriskotsuIt’s pricey but gorgeous. You are not allowed to get any food/drinks inside, and anything there is very expensive. However, hot springs are beautiful and we had a great time there. You have a great view of the volcano while you enjoy the hot springs.Just be careful of the rock walls when you walk through each pool, my bf got a lot of cuts and I got bruises.

Cerro Chato ANC Park & Gardens

呆火First and foremost - don't underestimate this hike. It's just a hike much better. The last place you're going to be in a steep gradient and climb over/root rocks and you need to use the corresponding hands and feet. Really untouchable nature, but because people walk in its paths are visible to all. It is not paved or marked but easy to follow. There is a big lake on the top floor, but that tells you too. Really not too much. We didn’t go swimming because driving us crazy insects and bed bugs. On the way back we focused on getting some great environment and views of Arenal volcano. In short we were always in about 5 hours. You want to do this early and be sure to avoid this place at night for bed bugs, snakes, etc. Highly recommend this hike for the sake of hiking, not particularly much of the top lake. We will definitely feel our muscles for the next two days, but it is worth it. :)
