Although my family did not stay at the resort, I feel compelled to write a review for our visit to the Thermal Pools. My family learned of Termales del Bosque from a Tico (Costa Rican) while at the airport. The Tico recommended Termales due to less crowds and the pools were just as nice as Tabacon's. Well, he was so... more

A local that we were travelling with suggested this as our last stop on our business trip. It was a great recommendation and as all the previous reviews has said it is a resort for costa ricans. However the staff does speak English. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a great experience at a fair price. more

Sure, you'll find plenty of gringo guests here -- and enough English speaking staff -- but this is essentially a Tico (locals) resort.

Be prepared - the water is luke warm as is the Tico custom. Breakfast is included and meals were very, very... more

Caution at the end: The nature and beauty of the area are outstanding. The facilities were clean and well serviced. We saw a sloth up in the trees and many butterfies during our visit to these Thermal Waters. With that said, the warmth of the waters come from the Volcano Poás, which is sulfuric in properties. Unaware of the sulfur... more
