The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful resort, great customer service. Everyone was soooo nice and helpful. Made us feel so comfortable. The hot springs are a delight, and the food was good. We especially loved the prompt service and the most beautiful view from our room to the volcano."
