Aesthetically, the property was stunning. Views of Volcan Arenal and the gardens on the property were next level. The on-site hot springs were also a main highlight. However, the miss for me would be the food options and lack thereof. The included breakfast was buffet style and food quality was okay. As far as dinner options go, there was a reservation only buffet, which was strange. We didn't arrive until late (8:00pm), but was told no dinner options were available even though there was a buffet with plenty of food, and then there is the a la carte restaurant with few options and not very appealing. My recommendation is to stay here for the views and hot springs, but be prepared to get food elsewhere.

The pictures don’t do it justice. The pools, the property, the views of Arenal were out of a dream. We loved our room - great size, balcony with rocking chairs looking at the volcano, and a huge bathroom. Everything was so well designed. The mineral pools were just incredible. So well maintained and it was easy to find privacy and peace. We also used the massage services with Maya and her daughter. It was outstanding body work done with care and love. We got body scrub and hot stone massage and I was so blissed out afterwards. It also helped with my low back issue I was having. The staff was also very nice and welcoming - big shout out to the welcome staff who was working when we got in on 6/21 - could not have been nicer. Outside of one or two who were less patient with simple mistakes or requests, everyone else was really nice. It’s also a great location to explore all of what Costa Rica has to offer. We highly recommend a tour with Proyecto Asia! This was a dream of a place and totally worth going back again and again

Pretty good hotel option in La Fortuna with unobstructed views of the Arenal Volcano with horses/donkeys roaming freely in the backside of the resort. Has a pretty decent fitness centers with plenty of equipment. Pools were nice. Some of the \"hot spring\" pools were the size of a jacuzzi, but some were much larger and could accommodate many guests. Included breakfast was decent.

The hot springs pools were lonely and the view of the Volcano was next level. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a relaxing stay in Costa Rica. Breakfast was included and it was delicious. A variety of fresh tropical fruit, omelet station, fresh juices and a variety of breakfast favorites.

We were greeted by a very friendly and helpful front desk at check-in, with very clear instructions about morning breakfast.
Excellent hot springs at various temperatures laid out very nicely with privacy.
Rooms were very spacious and luxurious and the beds were very comfortable.
We were facing the Arensl volcano and can occasionally see the full mountain when it was clear.
Nice location, not too far from downtown La Fortuna and other main attractions.
Very highly recommend this place for staying, if you visit La Fortuna.

This hotel was great! The hot springs were wonderful and the staff were so friendly and helpful! Our room was very nice and clean- no problem with any bugs at all. The shower was wonderful- very hot and great water pressure. The free breakfast buffet was good, nothing special- the usual eggs, fruit, pastries and made to order omelets and waffles. We did order from the swim up bar once or twice and the food there was excellent- burgers, fries, chicken sandwiches, etc. I would highly recommend Paradise Hot Springs to people who want to stay close to the town of LaFortuna! Sad to leave and we will miss the hot springs.

Clean, nice staff overall, felt safe, beautiful hot springs and spa. Very dim lighting on path to rooms at night. My only complaint is that they are trying to charge me for a third person when only two of us stayed here, checked in, and confirmed with staff at check-in. Staff not being very helpful with refunding for the non-existent third person. Disappointing to my trip because I really did like this place, but probably won’t stay here again because of this. Double check your reservation with this place!

I loved that they provided an umbrella being that its a rainforest and who would think to pack an umbrella on vacation??? They gave us a complimentary wine bottle which was a nice touch, although my husband and I do not drink wine. We chose the room with the volcano view. It was the perfect spot to catch the volcano when its sunny or partly cloudy. I miss the hotel already. We had breakfast included in our stay. Breakfast options and taste were great.

We had a wonderful 4 night stay at the Paradise Hot Springs hotel. Great location for all of the activities we did (hanging bridges, whitewater rafting and zip lining). A short (and cheap) uber to town if you want to go out to dinner ‘off campus.’ The staff was amazing, especially Andre, and very accommodating (I.e., arranged for boxes breakfasts for early morning adventure). Main restaurant is pretty good and also always have a buffet option (around $24). Hot spring pools were great after daily activities as was swim up bar which also offers decent food options. The hotel offers day passes for non-hotel guests but there is one pool and restaurant for guests only. Was foggy but decent view of volcano and had cows and horses in our ‘backyard.’ Property and rooms are very clean. Highly recommend!
