Positioned near the base of the Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica — one of Central America's most iconic landscapes — The Springs Resort Hot Springs combines dramatic natural scenery with a refined thermal experience. The bicarbonate and calcium-rich waters emerge at 35 °C with a neutral pH of 7.0, producing a balanced, soft-feeling soak that complements the resort's lush rainforest setting.

Guests unwind in tiered pools that overlook the jungle canopy and, on clear days, the cone of Arenal itself. The calcium-bicarbonate composition gives the water a clean, mineral freshness entirely fitting to the volcanic terrain from which it rises. Howler monkeys and tropical birds provide a soundtrack unique to this corner of the Alajuela province, making The Springs an experience shaped as much by the surrounding cloud forest as by the enveloping warmth of the water.

Insider tip — The 35°C waters of The Springs Resort Hot Springs are especially appreciated for aiding digestion and softening the skin.
