EcoTermales Hot Springs in Arenal

Discover the quiet, authentic side of La Fortuna at EcoTermales Hot Springs, a family-run sanctuary hidden in the rainforest near the Arenal Volcano. Designed for travelers seeking tranquility and privacy, EcoTermales Hot Springs limits each time slot to just 100 guests, ensuring a peaceful visit from start to finish.

Walk along stone pathways surrounded by lush tropical gardens, where the sounds of nature set the tone for pure relaxation. Slip into naturally heated geothermal pools, ranging from 91ºF (32ºC) to 105ºF (41ºC), each fed directly from deep volcanic aquifers. The property features five soothing thermal pools, a refreshing cool plunge pool, and a charming waterfall feature, offering the perfect balance of warmth and rejuvenation.

For added comfort, your experience includes lockers, towels, restrooms, and an onsite bar, allowing you to unwind with ease. When hunger calls, enjoy a delicious traditional Costa Rican meal lovingly prepared by Doña Mireya in the family’s original home—now a warm, rustic restaurant filled with local character. The cuisine is authentic, the ambiance cozy, and the service genuinely heartfelt.

As night falls, soft mushroom-shaped lights illuminate the pathways, creating a magical glow across the pools and rainforest. The peaceful atmosphere under the stars makes evening visits especially enchanting.

Whether you’re unwinding after a day of adventure or simply seeking a serene escape in nature, EcoTermales Hot Springs invites you to slow down and savor the essence of Pura Vida.
