My stay at Paradise Hot Springs Thermal Resort was a mixed bag. On one hand, I absolutely loved the beautiful thermal pools and the stunning views of Arenal. However, my room felt a bit dark and isolated, plus the breakfast and dinner buffets were just mediocre. Still, if you’re looking for a relaxing soak and not too much fuss, this place might just be perfect for you.
