"Great place. We had a wonderful time at this awesome, family owned/operated hotel. We had an incredible dinner off their special Christmas menu - prepared by the owned and served by his wife and nephew. The rooms were rustic, but very clean and comfortable. We would come back again!"

"Good room with all the facilities. Fast WiFi. Right in the center of Santa Elena ( great location). There isn’t a reception or a commom area like a tradicional hotel."

"Tabacon is a whole ecperience. From the ride through the most beautiful, lush, hillsides to get there, to the lavish world renown thermal spa that is their signature attraction. Super friendly staff all throughout the establishment. Beautiful natural gardens. Clean, modern rooms with all the ammenities. Will definitely be back."
"The room was large and very comfortable for our group of four (two adults and two teenagers). We especially enjoyed the private thermal pool, which was an awesome addition.
However, we did notice that some of the fixtures in the room are a bit dated, particularly the toilet. Updating these elements would significantly improve the overall experience.
Thermal pools were nice and spacious"
Arenal Paraíso Resort & Thermo Mineral Hot Springs
10/10 Excellent
"The individual cabin style rooms are very private and cozy. Almost too cozy! We like to be woken up by the sounds of the jungle and these rooms with heavy curtains are perfect for sleeping in. It was both a blessing and a curse! I do wish they didn’t use BRIGHT WHITE lights. Soft lighting would have been better, and would go much better with their decor.
Having a front glassed in and a back open porch was great to enjoy the mornings…. We actually caught a glimpse of a Howler Monkey going by one morning! The birds we saw from our porch were incredible…. Great Curassows, Macaws, Toucans, Hummingbirds, Parakeets, Falcons, and Montezuma Oropendolas to name a few.
The breakfast was surprisingly good and the service was very friendly. We enjoyed the omelette station and fresh fruit for sure. One day they had huevos rancheros that were in a great salsa.
We had an hour long massage while there and it was great. You can’t beat the price! Be sure to tip in cash so they don’t have to pay any fees on it.
My only complaint is the hot springs are not 24 hours, and don’t open until 10AM. They don’t offer any services to speak of other than towel/locker, so I am uncertain why the hours can’t be better. Also there is nowhere to stash your towel and shoes while in the water.
Overall we were extremely happy even with that small criticism. "
"Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teens) stayed for 3 nights and had a wonderful experience. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Rooms were well maintained and had an authentic feel, although the shower was a bit difficult to keep at a consistent temperature. Beds were comfy. Pool was a bit chilly.
The location was a bit of a drive from Arenal and La Fortuna, so I was glad that we had rented a vehicle to get around.
Overall, we had a lovely stay and would certainly recommend to others looking to stay in the area. "
