The property is fantastic, particularly the various pools with hot springs and the wonderful ambience, all of which are well-maintained. The dining options were commendable, and the chefs kindly adjusted the menu to accommodate my gluten restriction. Overall, it was a great hotel, although we were unable to see the volcano due to the cloudy weather during our two-day stay.
The only downside was the heavy rain on both days, which was audible through the roof and made it difficult to sleep due to the noise from the nearby traffic.
Lovely place to stay in Arenal for a brief trip! Located in between La Fortuna and Arenal. Rained the whole time we were there so we missed a view of the volcano, but the pools were still quite nice (particularly the reserved pool for hotel guests). Impressed by the service when we requested an extra cot in our room; they set up a full bed in 5 minutes! Room itself was spacious with high ceilings and a large bathroom. Would recommend overall!

Everything was nice the hot pool customer service. We love this day.
Nice friendly staff. Only complaint is that dining option is few and limited in service hours. Also, thermal pools also had rigid time restrictions. Other than that, wonderful resort. Would definitely go back!
We went to celebrate our 30th anniversary and we had an incredibly good time. The service at the restaurant was very nice and the cleaning service was perfect (Selena was very helpful, great job). We recommend this wonderful place.
Out of the many places we've stayed both in the U.S. and abroad, this is one of the best. From the friendly and personable staff to our room, and the hot springs, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Should we return to La Fortuna, we'll definitely consider Paradise Hot Springs.
While there was an amazing view of the volcano and the hot springs was a nice touch, around the hotel was very dark at night and there wasn't many dining options to choose from. The breakfast however was excellent.
