10/10 Excellent
"One of the most incredible hotels I’ve ever stayed at. Don’t hesitate and don’t use any other local hot Springs they just feel like a Lido whereas the hotel has such a beautiful and scenic facilities, which means you’ll never have to buy entrance for local hot Springs! Huge shout out to both Evelyn and Andres at the front desk such hospitable incredible wise and friendly staff. It was so good here and especially happy hour that we extended the trip by day. I miss it already. I’m so happy to come here. It made my whole experience visiting Costa Rica🇨🇷 Pura Vida!!!"

Arenal Manoa & Hot Springs Resort

10/10 Excellent
"This place was amazing! The landscaping is a jungle motif, and they have an army of people to maintain the place. The hot pools are beautiful, well maintained and amazing. There is a hot tub that is shaped like a flower, and two swimming pools. Breakfast is a buffet that is absolutely amazing. It consists of a salad bar, an omelette bar, a bread, bar, hot breakfast entrées including typical Costa Rican, Gallo, Pinto, and cold cuts, juices, cereal, milk, and is included with your room. The rooms are beautiful with a stunning view of the Arno volcano. And the price cannot be beat. Highly recommend this place!"
