The Spa at Tabacon is not your typical hotel spa. Memorable spa treatments are rendered in outdoors bungalows tucked away among the trees, gardens and natural hot springs. The setting offers complete privacy, which key in order to achieve the desired state of peace and balance.
The rainforest setting helps the spa guests recall the splendor and serenity of the natural surroundings.
Each treatment is preceded by Tabacon’s signature spa ritual, which starts in their beautifully designed, award-winning open-air resting area. Your pre-treatment preparation includes a dip in the hot spring fed Hot Tub…remember: none of the water at Tabacon is artificially heated, chemically treated, or recirculated.
Tabacon’s open-air spa bungalows are designed for individual or couple’s therapies. In these cozy bungalows, you are sheltered by a palm thatched roof and caña brava, a local wild shrub similar to bamboo. The structure and floor are made of very special, local hardwoods.
They are designed to allow the fresh air and scents of the rainforest become an essential part of each and every treatment. And even more significant are the spectacular sounds of the hot springs, blending perfectly with the ubiquitous sounds of wildlife.
The spa experience at Tabacon offers what is truly the most perfect match between spa design and nature.
All bungalows have a thermal spring-fed tub for two that allow you to soak in river fed thermomineral water, al fresco, in the heart of the rainforest. Hence, many guests choose to extend their treatment so as to enjoy the outdoor balneotherapy.
Arenal natural and wild beauty makes it a memorable and unique wedding destination, a remarkable place for honeymoons or romantic getaways.
From the most intimate get-togethers to the grandest soirees, they make every occasion an event to remember.
