The grounds of the hotel and the hot springs, which was a paradise on earth.
United States of AmericaWe had the best time at the thermal resort! We couldn’t of asked for anything better. Everyone was so nice and treated us so good we never wanted to leave!
United States of AmericaEasy convenient walks to the springs and food, never over crowded. Staff, all staff was excellent from checking in, and problems, making reservations!
United States of AmericaThe natural Hot Springs, the Food and the Staff the Wellness Spa.
United States of AmericaWe had such a wonderful three days at Tabacon for our honeymoon. We visited the hot springs on a day-trip during our first trip to Costa Rica and could not wait to return. It was so nice to stay at the resort. We felt like the resort took COVID protocols seriously. The rooms were very modern and clean and the service was amazing. They even left us a variety of special treats - chocolate-covered strawberries for our honeymoon, and delicious macarons to celebrate Thanksgiving. We felt very spoiled! We spent most of our time enjoying the hot springs and hiking nearby.
United States of AmericaThe staff was amazing, the rooms were clean and the amenities were excellent. The hot springs were an absolute dream!! I literally spent a whole day there
United States of AmericaThe staff here was absolutely amazing. Some of, if not the, best hospitality I've ever experienced.
United States of AmericaThe hotsprings were amazing. They are not on the same site as the hotel, but they offer a short shuttle ride to them whenever you wish to go. The hotsprings really exceeded my expectations.
United States of AmericaFirst time in Costa Rica and we stayed at the beach for five days and came to Tabacon for the last 3. It’s a beautiful setting and it’s very clean and the food is amazing. I would highly recommend staying here if and when you get the chance! Access to the hot springs is perfect and they do offer special hotel hours for more privacy if you want it but we found it not crowded at all. I do think COVID has affected the region and capacity limitations and people not comfortable with travel.
United States of AmericaLarge and spacious room! Large bathroom with jacuzzi bath tub, separate shower and two sinks.
