Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience

Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience

8/10 Good
"The staff was very helpful and since it is a larger property, was always extra helpful when we needed a ride to the front of the property (to be able to leave the property for an adventure or dinner) and back to our room after we were done, no matter the time of day. The rooms were a bit outdated but clean and comfortable. The included breakfast was very good also."

"We had an amazing experience at Las Lagos Hot Springs Resort! This was my second time visiting, and it was the perfect place to celebrate our honeymoon. The staff were wonderful—friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. Many seemed bilingual, which was especially appreciated. We even had staff at the springs restaurant recognize us and make us feel right at home. The grounds were beautifully maintained, and it was clear the staff took pride in caring for the property. The food was excellent, and the breakfast buffet was AMAZING with so many options. The hot springs were beautiful and offered plenty of choices for relaxing, privacy, and fun. My husband especially loved the water slide! The spa was incredible. We went twice and each did the relaxing balm massage and volcanic package. The products smelled and felt amazing, and the jungle sounds made the experience so relaxing. My only small complaint is that I wish more attention had been given to the tension in my back, and experienced this both massages I had. Our standard two-bed room was comfortable, with a garden outside and parking right nearby. We could easily walk to the restaurant and spa, and the front desk made booking tours easy. Overall, we felt safe, comfortable, and very well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Las Lagos to family and friends and would happily return again!"

Nayara Gardens

10/10 Excellent
"As a Costa Rican, I almost never vacation at hotels locally. Too often, the domestic hospitality scene feels pretty average—or frankly underwhelming—for what you end up paying, so my expectations were cautiously neutral. Nayara Gardens completely proved me wrong. From the second we pulled up, the service was on another level. The staff is warm, dialed-in, and remarkably professional without feeling stiff or scripted. The rooms are stunning, tucked right into the rainforest with total privacy and insane attention to detail. The food across every restaurant was genuinely phenomenal, the spa was pure bliss, and every tour we booked ran like clockwork with guides who actually knew their stuff. It’s rare to find a place that nails every single aspect of the guest experience, but Nayara pulled it off effortlessly. They set a whole new bar for luxury here, and we’re already planning our next stay."
