For a day by the water with a difference, make your way to the bubbling pools of Paradise Hot Springs. This place is known for its mineral-rich waters.

This naturally heated water source is on the to-do lists of many visitors to La Fortuna. But Paradise Hot Springs isn't the only drawcard in the area. Arenal Volcano National Park, Tabacon Hot Springs, and Arenal Volcano are some other recommended attractions nearby.

Luxurious five star property that checked all the boxes. Amazing and highly attentive staff, exceptionally well maintained property, with countless pools and natural hot springs, and its own activity center on the Arenal River that runs through the property. Our room was spacious, with a large bathroom with spa tub, and large balcony with ideal view of the volcano. The property was tucked into a forrest 15 minutes from town. Being on site is an experience in itself. The only downside was the pull of being on site can limit interest in taking more advantage of the surrounding area. The dining options were good, not great, but the bar bites by the pool and river were all satisfying. All in all, one of the finest properties we have ever stayed at. Looking forward to a return visit.
