Just got finish spending 3 nights at the Tabacon. Great location amazing staff and the hot springs are one of a kind. Our biggest and only complaint would have to be the overpriced crappy food. We paid 60 dollars for 2 sandwich and 2 beers subway is better!!! Save yourself money and check out the restaurant "El Novillo" which is... more

We stayed here for one night and wished we had stayed a night longer. The hotel is nice with excellent service. the highlight of the hotel experience was the gardens and hot springs - -absolutely stunning. Just keep in mind that the springs and garden are across the street from the hotel so you will have to take a five... more

My friend and I stayed at Tabacon on Nov 1st and 2nd, 2009. Like many others, we were seduced by the hot springs and promises of views and luxury. I actually read about this place in the Frommer's guide book. I have since learned not to take those guides too seriously. FACILITY The facility is certainly beautiful - the lobby,... more

My wife and I spent a few evenings in their honeymoon suite and were just overwhelmed by the whole experience. We arrived stressed and a bit tired from the drive from San Jose but we left relaxed and extremely happy with our decision to stay at Tabacon. The highlights were the hot springs, which are the best we’ve ever been... more

The hotel is wonderful physically but the real pleasure is in the hotel staff. From the moment we made our reservation to the final moment before departure they bent over backwards to ensure we had a wonderful time. We stayed in a deluxe superior room type and it was wonderfully appointed. The hot springs are amazing but the one day... more

We arrived at this hotel early 1pm and had a tour planned, so we checked our luggage and went on our short tour. We arrived back at 2:50pm (checkin was 3:00pm) and went to check in (Manfred was behind the desk) he rudely said it was only 2:50 and we had to wait 10 minutes, not looking to see if... more

My wife, 1 year old daughter and I recently visited Costa Rica for my birthday. We've been 4 times previously; each time, we return to Tabacon and always try another area of Costa Rica. Without question, we consider La Fortuna - and Tabacon in particular - our "heaven on earth." Besides the wonders of this resort --- such as the... more

Every thing about this trip got better as we went on. The drive was about 2 hours from Liberia airport but it was admitted stunningly beautiful (tip: pay attention to the few road signs it is easy to get lost without them), Once we arrived at our hotel we were relieved to find that it was better than we had... more
