This resort can be reached from La Fortuna and is a popular place to visit for those that have visited Arenal Volcano National Park.

For those that want to partake in more than just the hot springs, there are several treatments to choose from. One of these is a Volcanic Body Wrap. Guests will visit an open-air bungalow where they can hear not only the nearby water, but the relaxing sounds of nature. Mud is then rubbed on their skin and a soft blanket is wrapped around them. After they are done relaxing for a bit, the guest is led to a heated stream where they can rinse off.
