Pros We had a wonderful time at Los Lagos. The property and hot springs were amazing. The breakfast was also very good. Each evening we dined at the restaurant and food and service was excellent Con’s We were not totally satisfied with our room. I didn’t care for the sink design and there was only one chair in the room. The air conditioner wasn’t working properly. Our room was alway humid and the fan from the air conditioner was noisy. Otherwise we had a great stay at Los Lagos !

It’s only a short drive from La Fortuna and many tours and activities. Within the resort, you have access to several hot spring pools and 2 regular pools with slides for the kids. There is also a viewing point of the volcano. The room is a little outdated.

Loved this resort. Paid for the upgraded volcano view room and never saw the volcano due to the fog for four days. Dining options are great. Hot springs and pool with slides are amazing. Room key didn’t work multiple times- had to walk to the reception desk six times. That was annoying. Our room was huge but needed more hooks or a shelf in the bathroom for functionality.

The room was very spacious. The beds were nice plenty of blankets. The shower was clean. The view from the room was amazing. The parking is a little far away. You definitely need a vehicle or use their transportation to get back to the Hot Springs or the restaurant. The Hot Springs at the very top are very hot and they’re very nice the further down you go the more commercialized it becomes which is good for children or partying people who want a swim u bar. The food in the main restaurant at night was not very good I would recommend just grabbing a burger or pizza at the pool bar.. the included buffet breakfast in the morning was really good. Finally, I believe you can arrive early on the day of your check-in and you can stay as late as 10 PM on the day of your check out to enjoy the Hot Springs. I wish we had known that we probably would’ve come earlier.

Hotel Los Lagos Spa & Resort is a beautiful and relaxing property near Arenal Volcano. The grounds are lush, expansive, and well maintained, and the views of the volcano from the pools and walkways are stunning, especially in the mornings. The resort truly feels immersed in nature. The thermal hot spring pools were the highlight of our stay. There are multiple pools at different temperatures, and the swim-up bar was a nice bonus. The spa and overall atmosphere make it a great place to unwind. The rooms were clean and spacious, though more rustic than modern, which fits the natural setting. One thing to note is that the room doors have a noticeable gap underneath, which does allow bugs to come in. While this wasn’t shocking given the jungle environment and “nature-forward” experience, it’s something guests should be aware of. The resort property is large, so be prepared for quite a bit of walking. That said, this was actually one of the positives — there are plenty of paths where you can see wildlife, birds, and enjoy the surrounding nature right on the property. Breakfast was included and decent, with fresh fruit and traditional Costa Rican options. Staff were generally friendly and helpful. One major downside: I was charged $60 for a guest who was only visiting for a few hours, which felt completely unreasonable for a mid-range resort in Costa Rica. This policy was disappointing and not clearly communicated upfront
