Arenal Springs Resort & Spa
Arenal Springs Resort & Spa is a resort hotel in La Fortuna, Costa Rica, built around natural volcanic hot springs with varying temperatures for guests to enjoy. Bungalow-style rooms spread across tropical gardens with views of Arenal Volcano, multiple restaurants serving Costa Rican, Italian, and Asian dishes, plus a spa and swimming pool with cool water.
The resort was built in a region whose name directly relates to the volcanic activity that shaped it. It was created to make the natural hot springs accessible to visitors, springs that exist because of the geothermal activity from Arenal Volcano.
The name reflects the volcanic hot springs that form the core experience at this place, central to how guests spend their time here. The resort embodies how people in Costa Rica blend natural wellness with everyday relaxation, with open garden spaces designed for people to unwind while remaining connected to their surroundings.
The resort sits about 20 minutes by car from the national park and waterfalls, making it a practical base for day trips in the region. Access to the hot springs is reserved for hotel guests only, meaning they stay less crowded and remain pleasant to visit at night.
The resort holds a sustainability certification and operates a small farm on the grounds where it grows vegetables and herbs used in the restaurants. These practices demonstrate a careful relationship with the environment that guests can observe during their stay.
