Pros: Had a wonderful stay. Great location to explore the rain forest of Costa Rica. Had a wonderful room with beautiful views. Fabulous bathroom with huge Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Great to come back to the resort after hiking, zip-lining and ATV-ing and relax at the hot springs. Will definitely return.

Pros: Amazing hotel! Everything is just PERFECT! They take care of everything for you. The service is unbelievable, the room is huge, the facilities are in a very good condition, and the view from the room is just astonishing. And the best thing of all is that you have unlimited access to the natural hot springs. If I'll ever return to Costa Rica, I will certainly visit Tabacon again. It's not that expensive for what you get.

Cons: Breakfast was very expensive. Buffet was $25++. The bill was $125.00 for our family of 4. We shopped in town and had breakfast in the room. Was still enjoyable. There was a fridge, coffee. Would be nice to have options for breakfast.

Pros: I love everything about Tabacon but the prices are outrageous.
Cons: The prices are much more expensive. I have been here many times and reccomended it to others. Now I have to change this from my go to place in the area because it is much too expensive especially the spa. Too bad because I love tabacon. But I will only do the day pass now.

Cons: 1. Having to shuttle between the two locations;; would be great to have a BRIDGE from one location to the other where we can actually walk. Tomar Shuttle y no poder caminar de un lado de Tabacon al otro. Depronto un puente peatonal seria ideal. 2. Needs more SIGNS indicating where to go. It is easy to get lost. 3. Need to extend the hours until 11pm. Perhaps you can use SOLAR FLOOD lights for night walks.

Pros: Hot springs and Spa are good.
Cons: There is no hand shower. There is only showerhead. The breakfast is too boring if you stay there several days.

Pros: The hot springs make it worth the price. We stayed for one night, but enjoyed two days on the hot springs and pools. We absolutely loved it and recommend it.
Cons: Do not expect great food. Both breakfast and dinner were highly overpriced for the quality. Dinner was so disappointing, we spent about $100 for two entrees, one appetizer and two beers, but the ribeye was could barely edible, and the special nothing to brag about. They also offer a buffet by the pool for $39/person, which we didn't try. Breakfast for $25/person was also a rip off considering I only enjoyed the fruits and yogurt. The rest of the buffet was not great, so I barely touched it. They need to invest in better food in my opinion...
6,7 Good
Pros: Room was clean and it was raining
Cons: I was really disappointed. I went to celebrate my birthday and I called to confirm the reservation and mentioned I want all the birthday props, the band in the door, everything. I arrived and mentioned the same to the man doing the checking and when I arrived to the room there was no band at the door, anything. I felt really disappointed and gave my complains to the bellman. Guess what? Nothing happened, I had to call to the front desk and complain (again).... I requested 4x for the birthday props

Pros: The resort was so beautiful that within an hour of checking in and walking around, we decided to stay a second night. The entire staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. All the food was delicious. We had dinner twice at the restaurant and breakfast both mornings. (they have a vegan menu available upon request!) The views were amazing. The rooms were spacious with private balconies and all situated to have a lovely view of the volcano.

5,8 Okay
Pros: Great view of Arenal Volcano.
Cons: Awful staff. Literally the worst place we stayed in Costa Rica. Day 1 - We arrive after 5 hours drive from the Caribbean side only to be kept waiting for 20 minutes for a golf cart (as everything is so steep and spread apart that walking is murder), which never comes. We are given a map with out room “circled” so we drive our car through the maze only to find that the staff have circled the wrong building. Day 2 - arrive for breakfast and ask for tea instead of coffee and it becomes a saga for which they try initially to charge me for (although I’ve paid for breakfast) Day 3 - woken by work being carried out outside our door (until we leave). Try to get another golf cart to take us to our room later. 20 minutes if not more of waiting - until we decide to hike the 45degree paths back to our room. Day 4 - paid for this day but just ran away. It was awful.

Pros: The hotel is close to the Volcan
Cons: First, we had a problem with that booking site helped us to solve. Because the hotel requested us to pay to stay with our dogs, and when we made the reservation shows pet allowed without costs. We paid for a standard bungalow but when we arrived it was necessary to change the room because always we find insects and the hotel said that is normal. My wife has an allergy and I traveled with two dogs, the solution was paid more 60 USD to change our room. I never go back to this hotel, they only think in money, for example, to request a room service you need to pay 8 USD additional for it and the restaurant is close to the rooms. The tour in the hotel is very expensive, I found a website tour with at least 50% less.
