Tabacon is nothing short of amazing. My husband and I went for our honeymoon and could not have asked for anything better. The service and people were all so kind and welcoming. We loved the resteraunt Ave, which is located on the property. Priscilla Alvarez was our waitress and went above and beyond to ensure our dinner services were excellent. The hot springs on site are also the best in the country. Thank you again Tabacon!

This was our first stay at Tabacon as part of a Costa Rica wildlife photography tour. The resort was amazing, so beautiful in a jungle setting, well appointed and maintained rooms and grounds, excellent food and service - such friendly staff. We visited the thermal spa also and enjoyed the naturally hot river courtesy of the nearby Arenal Volcano - very unique. It is a very special place. We will be back.

We had an amazing day at the hot springs. The pools ranged from tepid to comfortably warm. The entire area was clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a bit pricey but worth it.
