"Omg 10/10. I had a blast staying here. The hot tub came in handy after going hiking. I went during the wet season so the volcano was covered by clouds but I’m sure during the dry seasoning the view is beautiful. Everything was well-kept. The villa itself was nice and elevated inside. Would stay here again. The villa is very nice but it’s also fairly new so there’s a dirt road that leads to it, so when you uber or are using a shuttle make sure to advise them to come to the end of the dirt road....

"My Granddaughter become sick while there. We had booked a tour that you were supposed to cancel 24 hours before. The morning of, we called the hotel to let them know we could not do the tour. The woman at reception said she would contact the tour company and try to get our money refunded. She did get out money back. Then the asked how my daughter was and asked if she could send some chicken soup to our room for her. At no cost to us a huge bowl of soup with rice was delivered to our room. It was delicious. They were very thoughtful and caring by going out of their way to be sure all was good. The next day when we checked out they asked us how our granddaughter was. We felt like they really cared."

Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa

Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"What can I say about the Tabacon except OMG! 3 things that stood out were the customer service, the impeccable coordination of the facilities, and of course the exquisite thermal spa. Ton checking in a golf cart takes you from the lobby to your room. Everything is accessible via the electronic bracelets that are provided at check in (this serves as your room key, gym access, (the gym is very clean), and allows you to charge things to the room such as gift shop purchases, meals, poolside service etc.) The breakfast buffet is available for a fee ; we got lucky to see the toucans each day high above the trees And the highlight of course was the magnificent thermal springs. It is normal to walk out of your room with your bathing suit on, and with a bathrobe over it (the one provided in the room) and saunter over to the lobby. The shuttle comes by every 5 mins; when you arrive at the springs, simply go to the towel dispensary and also get a locker key. And then off you go - exploring spring after spring. Some are cold (eg the hexagon pool), and others are warm; some have water falls and others are serene. One note is that the pools have different flooring (with some that are paved, and others that are a little rocky and mossy) - so tread cautiously till you figure your way around. Exclusive to hotel guests is the upper most secluded area called Shangri La comprising several pools and cabana side service. The whole experience is remarkable, unforgettable and restorative."

We also enjoyed the feeling of seclusion and the ability to see cool plants and animlas on the property. Highly recommend! The only challenge is getting there...we don't recommend making your first drive to Lost Iguana in the dark."
