The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal

The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal

10/10 Excellent
"Property is expansive and immaculately maintained. In the off season it felt as if we had rented the entire beautiful property. Lots of walking and stairs — be warned. Everyone very eager to assist and please. Food is fine but unimaginative and ridiculously expensive. Cocktails are great, but still priced for NYC."

"Wonderful hot springs. Exceeded my expectations. And that view?? Unforgettable. Breakfast was FABULOUS. The only thing is that I could hear my neighbors pretty clearly and the excursions were pricyy (but I think still worth getting because they were easily accessible and so fun!). Overall, a great stay!"
