Hot Springs

Given the name of the resort itself, it should come as no surprise that a major highlight of this hotel is the pools fed by natural thermal hot springs. Though the pools are manmade, the water is sourced from the hot springs of the Arenal Volcano. The natural mineral water from the Volcano ranges in temperature from 95 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degrees Celsius) to 104 degrees Fahrenheit (41 degrees Celsius), providing a relaxing and soothing experience. When you’re a guest at Paradise Hot Springs Thermal Resort, you will have free access to the pools for the duration of your stay.

Spa

With an emphasis on naturally sourced thermal mineral waters from the volcano, the full-service spa at the resort focuses on providing a full wellness experience to couple with the on-site pools. Many of the pools and jacuzzies have hydromassage jets and waterfalls, so take a dip and then follow it up with a spa treatment to maximize the benefits of the mineral hot spring water. You can book facial treatments, body masks, and wraps, as well as varied types of massages with the concierge.
