Top Northern Plains Hotel Reviews

The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal

The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal

10/10 Excellent
"Pictures truly don’t do this place justice. Everything felt bigger and more impressive in person. Our Vista Grande Double Room was incredibly spacious, and the view of Arenal Volcano was absolutely stunning. The resort feels tucked away, private, and peaceful while still offering every comfort. Unlike many resorts, the property feels new, exceptionally clean, and very well maintained. The staff were amazing throughout our stay—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The restaurants were excellent, and the complimentary coffee was some of the best we’ve had. The morning buffet was a perfect way to start each day. One of the highlights of our trip was the Club Rio excursions. They were convenient, well organized, and reasonably priced. We enjoyed the ATV tour, night walk, and river tubing, all of which added to an unforgettable Costa Rica experience. We hated to leave and would return without hesitation. Photos simply can’t capture how beautiful and expansive the resort feels in person. From the spacious accommodations and breathtaking volcano views to the exceptional service and memorable activities, this resort exceeded our expectations in every way."
