It even hosted ABC’s The Bachelor back in 2011.That reason is the stunning grounds. The Springs’ views of Arenal Volcano from the several hot springs pools are a treat for all guests. The mineral water is pumped from a nearby river every day. Each pool was designed to blend seamlessly with the surroundings, and several have small details like human-made waterfalls where you can sit and let the water relax your shoulders and mind. They all have different sizes, shapes, and temperatures (each one is marked accordingly, ranging between 86˚F-104˚F). So choose the pool depending on your mood and spend the time relaxing in the rejuvenating waters.There are three main pool sections: Las Lagunas, Perdido Springs, and Club Rio Springs. Las Lagunas has terraces and 12 pools with views of Arenal Volcano, and a swim-up bar. The Perdido Springs are seven pools hidden between the vegetation, connected by trails. This section has the monkey waterslide, so make sure to visit; the kids especially will love it. The hot springs at Club Rio are located near the river that crosses the property, providing canyon and rainforest views.&nbsp;<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1645737078/the_springs_resort_and_spa_the_falcons_nest_cascada_grande_laguna_bar_arenal_18de5fe5bd.jpg" alt="the-springs-resort-and-spa-the-falcons-nest-cascada-grande-laguna-bar-arenal.jpg" srcset="https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1645737078/thumbnail_the_springs_resort_and_spa_the_falcons_nest_cascada_grande_laguna_bar_arenal_18de5fe5bd.jpg 245w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1645737081/small_the_springs_resort_and_spa_the_falcons_nest_cascada_grande_laguna_bar_arenal_18de5fe5bd.jpg 500w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1645737081/medium_the_springs_resort_and_spa_the_falcons_nest_cascada_grande_laguna_bar_arenal_18de5fe5bd.jpg 750w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1645737080/large_the_springs_resort_and_spa_the_falcons_nest_cascada_grande_laguna_bar_arenal_18de5fe5bd.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">&nbsp;<h2>Best of Adventure and Relaxation in Costa Rica</h2>The Springs has many other on-site offerings, including a full fitness center and Club del Rio, the hotel’s adventure center.

John Childers - Jake

I reached out to Costa Rican Vacations because they have an amazing reputation online and exceptional reviews. It was the best trip we've ever had! Anastasia was amazing and coordinated everything perfectly. I'd definitely book another trip &amp; she'll be my first call!

Amanda Farris Shook - Anastasia

Perfectly executed 10 days of fun! Emilie helped us coordinate the trip and the execution was flawless. The activities were perfect for our family. Our experience in Costa Rica was made amazing because of Costa Rican Vacations and Emilie!

Eloise Moodie - Emilie Witham

I would like to thank Costa Rican Vacations and Felipe Martinez, my consultant. For advising, assisting and planning my dream vacation to Costa Rica. He was patient, experienced, pleasant, warm, friendly, professional and always responded to my messages.

Savi Persad - Felipe Martinez

We had such an incredible honeymoon! Thanks for customizing our package to cater to our requests and for always being so available whenever we had questions. We truly came back with memories to last a lifetime.

Moira & Dan - Marjeri Smith

My family and I spent 7 glorious days in Costa Rica. Rachel Peck put together a perfect itinerary. She was absolutely amazing! Very attentive to details and arranged unforgettable experiences for us. Many wonderful memories were made!

Marleen Chiaravalloti - Rachel Peck

Anastasia made our honeymoon so special in so many ways! I can’t appreciate enough how stress-free she has made this process and fun along the way. She was always available even during our trip when I was feeling unwell the first few days and had multiple recommendations which had me feeling better in no time.&nbsp;

Cheyenne P - Anastasia

Wow!!! All I can say is that this trip was amazing. It was an incredible experience from beginning to end. The scenery in this country is beautiful and breathtaking. So much to learn about the continental divide and diversity of the plant and tree life in this beautiful lush rainforest. The volcano in Arenal was amazing. The scenery changed every minute literally. Emma Lasiuk was the reason we decided to take this vacation. I told her what I was looking for and she gave me and my wife everything I wanted and more.

I worked with Caitlin Summer to plan and book our Costa Rican vacation. She asked what we liked, wanted to see &amp; do and then sent us a proposal. We made a few changes and then booked our trip. Caitlin did a fantastic job meeting our expectations-booking a great hotel with a beautiful view in La Fortuna and an awesome bungalow in Puerto Viejo that made us feel like we were in the jungle.

Sharon Sagastume - Caitlin Summer

We visited Arenal and Guanacaste with my family. Emma Lasiuk created the best itinerary based on what we were interested in. Everything she recommended was exactly what we wanted and went so smoothly. All transfers from airport to different hotels were on time and very professional. The travel experience team answered our questions right away during our stay. I highly recommend Costa Rican Vacations.
