Tabacon Resort and Hot Springs
Boasting beautifully landscaped gardens, elegantly designed hot spring fed swimming and soaking pools, and a full service eco-spa, the Tabacon Grand Spa Thermal Resort has received praise for its dedication to environmentally-friendly practices and its luxurious accommodations. A perfect combination of volume, temperature, and low mineral content, the hot springs are channelled into five pools where visitors can gaze at the stunning Arenal Volcano. Whether guests are seeking a romantic and mystical experience in the Costa Rican rainforest or families are looking to explore the natural beauty, the Tabacon offers several styles of rooms and suite to meet the needs of each guest.
The Tabacon, the life work of architect and owner Jaime Mikowski, is set on 350 hectares of rainforest about 20 minutes out of La Fortuna. The thermal springs flow uninterrupted through the local rainforest and offer an opportunity to relax and rejuvenate. A top destination for weddings and honeymoons alike, the dedicated staff at Tabacon will ensure that guests are tastefully spoiled and leave with everlasting memories. Outside of this carbon-neutral resort, a variety of thrilling outdoor adventure activities are available. Take the wedding party or family white-water rafting in the Sarapiqui River, rappelling along waterfalls in a beautiful canyon, or ziplining above the treetops via one of the multiple canopy tours.
