Absolutely loved this place. The grounds were beautiful and you felt like you were really in the middle of the jungle, but with all your creature comforts. Breakfast each morning was great, with a good choice of local and western options. Would definitely stay again.

It is not bad, such as the room is large, the restaurant is delicious, and the location is convenient. Mini bar is free. Disadvantages: The hotel is very big and it is all up and down, it is really tired. The swimming pool is super crowded and the atmosphere is not too casual. And this hotel has no hot springs, I want to go to a special hotel to wash hot springs.

Tabacon was the highlight of our Costa Rica trip. The hot springs were gorgeous, the landscaping presine, the staff incredibly well-trained, and the rooms spotless. Where else can you sit in a pristine 100 degree waterfall? We ended up changing our busy itinerary and spent about 3x more time at Tabacon that we planned. We joke that when we go back we'll just spend the whole week at Tabacon. Breakfast was great although it was quite busy in the morning and there was a line for their made-to-order omelets. Other than that it was a perfect stay at Tabacon.
