The resort is beautifully situated with stunning views of the volcano and a variety of pools offering different temperature options. The breakfast buffet was excellent, and we found the pool bar to be a fun spot for casual meals. However, the rooms are quite outdated and could use some improvement, especially regarding basic amenities like washcloths and towel supply. Overall, while the amenities and location are worth it, the value for the room quality is lacking.

My stay at the resort was truly enjoyable, featuring stunning grounds and many hot pools to relax in. The spacious room had a delightful deck where I spent plenty of time. The meals served were quite good, and the staff went above and beyond to assist us. However, I faced some discomfort with the pillows being too hard for my liking, and the location being a bit far from La Fortuna meant I had to rely on taxis. Overall, it's a great spot if you don't mind being a little out of town.

The room was spacious and comfortable, though the pillows were quite hard for my taste. It would have been nice to have a garbage can in the room itself, rather than just in the bathroom.

The resort offers stunning views and beautiful hot springs that kept my child entertained for hours. However, we found the overall vibe unwelcoming, primarily due to the staff's poor attitude. The room was generous in size and well-kept, but lacking in decor, and navigating the expensive activities could be necessary for enjoyment.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The location is stunning and close to natural hot springs, but the service left much to be desired. The rooms were spacious but showed signs of wear, and the dining experience was quite average. Overall, while the amenities like the pools were enjoyable, the unwelcoming atmosphere made my stay less pleasant than I'd hoped.

Our stay at the resort had its ups and downs. While the overall resort was stunning with lovely pools and a beautiful environment, we faced several issues with our room that were hard to overlook. Service was hit-or-miss, and the dining experiences fell short of expectations, especially considering the price we paid.

Our room unfortunately had a terrible smell and the air conditioning struggled to keep it cool. We tried to make the best of it by only using the room at night and keeping windows open.
