I really enjoyed the fact that it was in the middle of the jungle, the breakfast was top tier everyday. I enjoyed the hot springs they were really nice, and the rooftop pool overlooking the volcano was the cherry on top.

Our family truly loved our stay in Paradise. The quiet, the attentiveness of the staff, the 9 hot tins and pools were all fabulous. Our room faced the Aernal Volcano and just feet from our door was the pasture where Brahma steers grazed and slept. The location put is in easy proximity to the rainforest and mountains for some of the best adventures of our lives. Oh! Let me not forget the infinity pool of the upper brunch cafe facing arenal. Stunning and even beats the swim up bar on the property. Thank you Paradise Hot Springs.

Staff very friendly and good. Hot springs don’t open until 11AM. Relatively small property so can’t really move around—felt like a compound, not a resort. Rooms very large and nice but no views. My wife went ZipLining in the morning and there was essentially nothing for me to do. Pools closed, too small to walk around and even coffee bar not open until 12. Buffet OK but certainly not extensive.

It was a great option to have the hot springs nightly. The breakfast was excellent and lots of options including an omelette bar. The food we did pay for at dinner time we were not impressed with but there were excellent dining options in La Fortuna. We did lots of days doing self driving and returning here at night. We were able to do these things from this location: la Fortuna waterfall, Rio Celeste, Arenal 1968 hiking trail, mistico hanging bridges. Only thing they could do is to post to wash your bathing suits after going in the hot springs always as they smell horrible when dry.
