Great Fun & Relaxing
Luxurious room with excellent climate control & comfortable bed; plenty of furniture and storage space. Clean bathroom with upscale amenities and great shower. Beautiful view from the room and easy & safe walking distance to everywhere on the property...we liked to walk to the hot springs but there is also very reliable, very frequent van service, and you may need your phone flashlight after dark. Remarkably courteous staff everywhere on the property. Loved the hot springs; plenty of different temps and settings!! Food at the hot springs was much better than expected; very good sandwiches and nachos but the beer selection is limited and the mixed drinks were disappointing. Enjoyed the buffet bkfst with wide variety and good omelettes.

Awesome Vacation
It was a wonderful time! Love Tabacon! It’s a paradise and not a lost one. My husband and I found the place wonderful . In 2019 I sent all my children on a vacation to this place. The rooms, food pool and thermal water is worth all the money you pay.

Magical stay!
Our stay at Tabacon was absolutely magical. We brought our four young children, and they had an incredible time. The staff was super helpful and friendly, the senator suite we stayed in was luxurious with a view of the jungle that was unmatched. Our spa experience was excellent, and the thermal pools were a true highlight. Worth every penny to stay here for the amazing memories made. Thank you!

The best hot springs!
Highly recommend this incredible property. The staff and service were exceptional, the food was delicious and the hot springs were even more amazing than the pictures depict (and the photos are incredible). We will definitely be returning!
