Los Lagos Hot Springs in La Fortuna, Alajuela Province, Costa Rica, is a well-established thermal resort positioned at the foot of Arenal Volcano, drawing chloride-rich geothermally heated water from the volcanic massif's hydrothermal system into a series of cascading pools within a wildlife-rich tropical garden. The resort's pools are set amid gardens where sloths, toucans, and poison dart frogs share the tropical vegetation, creating the uniquely Costa Rican experience of luxury thermal bathing within a functioning biodiversity corridor. Los Lagos combines thermal wellness with wildlife observation and proximity to Lake Arenal's watersports and hanging bridge canopy walks, positioning it as a comprehensive nature-and-wellness destination in Costa Rica's most visited volcanic region.
