Reviews for Tabacon Thermal Resort & Spa
What a fantastic but expensive place ;-)
An absolute highlight in Costa Rica! 🌴✨ The Tabacón Hot Springs are a beautifully maintained and beautifully landscaped facility – simply perfect for relaxing in the natural hot waters of the volcano. The various pools invite you to unwind and enjoy the impressive natural surroundings. I would especially like to highlight the restaurant: excellent service, very attentive staff, and delicious dishes that perfectly round off the visit. Greetings, 2 Oscars 👍 An unforgettable experience – highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Can't Miss La Fortuna Experience.
Entire day at Tabacon will go down as a once in a lifetime experience. We opted for the day pass and the dinner option. Everything exceeded expectations. Resort staff was exceptionally hospitable. Hot Springs, bathrooms and cabana areas were very clean. We didn't know what to expect from an "included" dinner but never would have expected it to be this over the top exceptional. We got the ceviche, sea bass, pork chops, filet and delectable deserts. All had that wow factor that is typically reserved for higher end restaurants. Hostess, manager checking in and Pricilla Alvarez' service was textbook guest first and friendly. Can't wait to come back here and pura vida some more.

It’s AMAZING! The rooms are excellent, the food is great, and the thermal springs are some of the nicest I’ve ever seen… actually, the nicest!

Tabacon is the best!
This is a must do if you visit La Fortuna. We arrived around 10:30am and were able to secure a cabana. The day was filled with relaxation and beautiful views. To end our day we had dinner at the Tabacon restaurant . Randall provided the best service. He was extremely knowledgeable on the menu and even offered some amazing advice on things we could do around La Fortuna.

Paradise in Costa Rica.
Fantastic experience at Tabacon! Room is are spotlessly clean and spacious, grounds are immaculately kept and the food at the restaurants is absolutely top notch especially at Tucanes where the service was also superb. We would spend our mornings on an excursion then spend the whole afternoon at the hot springs relaxing. We had a wonderful time here and were sad to leave. Shout out too to the customer service. I had an issue with the TV in our room so I called the front desk. Someone was at my door literally less than 1 minute later to fix the problem!!!
