The hotel was pretty and the thermal waters were super nice! The hot pools are small though so if there are too many people, it can feel crowded. Beds could be more comfortable, but overall we were happy with our stay.

Amazing stay. Our cottage had everything we needed, the breakfast was fantastic. But the thermal pools was the best part of our stay, so relaxing. We also booked a horse ride and it was by far the highly of our trip, our group rode on the Arenal river, unforgettable memories.

Mineral hot springs

Wonderful view from our cabin. Mineral pools were very relaxing. Pool was good with lounge chairs in shaded area, complete with a big iguana rubbing around the deck. Their restaurant had good food at reasonable prices (most entrees were $15-25 range with some cheaper options and a few around $40). Resort is several miles outside of La Fortuna went on tours during day and enjoyed resort at night. Uber to town was $5 when we went to explore. Very happy with our stay.

Arenal Paraíso Resort truly lives up to its name—it’s a paradise! The cabin we stayed in was incredibly spacious, comfortable, and spotless. The views of the surrounding nature and volcano were absolutely breathtaking. One of the highlights of our stay was the variety of Thermo Mineral Hot Springs pools—there were so many to choose from, and they were all so relaxing. There are even areas designed for kids, making it a great spot for families. The service was excellent, and the food was delicious. We absolutely loved our time here and can’t wait to come back again. Highly recommend!

Nice stay in quiet nature

Had a lovely stay, our hut was so great, very quiet and comfortable, very friendly cleaning staff, they made us laugh a lot with their towel Figurines. Amazing breakfast, great restaurants and fantastic pool & termal area. Parking close to our hut worked perfectly. In terms of cleanliness all was good for us, we found that the bats left their droppings on the porch at night but we found this was part of the nature Adventure. We very much enjoyed our stay and can absolutely recommend.

This property was fantastic. It had all the amenities we were looking for. Room was clean with great view. Seemingly endless thermal pools at different temperatures hidden along a path up the hill was incredible. Breakfast in the morning was great. The bonus was the swim up bar that was warm. Many iguanas on the property. Wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Great hotel with its own thermal pools.

Arrived early but told we would have to wait till 3 for check in. We were able to use the thermal pools and have lunch whilst we waited. Our room was a decent size with 2 double beds but unfortunately the walls were paper thin and the 'family' next door were anything but quiet. Luckily for us, on requesting a move to another room, they were able to oblige and Alan, the concierge, was very helpful driving us to and from our old room to the new room and back to reception. Our 'new room was quieter and comfortable. The thermal pools were very enjoyable ranging from hot (around 40c) down in a series of 'fake' rock pools to about 24c. In addition a decent swimming pool and a separate swim up bar which we assume was thermal water as it was at her dark and murky. The staff were all friendly and the food and cocktails were delicious, though we found the food portions on the large side. What would have been nice was some bench seats around the property in order to sit and enjoy the wildlife/birds. Also the sunbeds by the pool were in very poor repair and few in number.
