We went to the bath on a rainy day and were for two hours the only guests. Later a few others came but it was still far away from being crowded. It's a small place with six pools of different temperature and size -for me that was enough to relax since everything was clean and the plants all around the pools gave the impression to be in the middle of a rainforest.The entrance of 23$ is reasonable and still less than in the other spas.
The Paradise Hot Springs were part of our Ecoterra package. It was enjoyable, but nothing special. I would have liked the pools to have been more clearly marked as to their location and temperature. The food provided was good, but again, nothing special. The entrance staff was very good, but it went a bit downhill from there. There are bars located at the pools, but the one we visited had an employee who spoke no English at all, and even pointing seemed to be met with some difficulty.
It was raining while I was there, and maybe that's why there weren't many people. Lunch was part of the package and it was adequate -- probably because I'm a vegetarian and didn't want the meat offered. But it was very pleasant to while away several hours moving from one pool to another.
We were thinking about which of the many hot springs in La Fortuna we want to visit and decided to go to Paradise Hot Springs. Entrance fee is 23$ and the people at the entrance were very friendly and welcoming. They explained everything about the baths and then we could enter. The pools are nice and the surroundings, too. It looks natural. We had the pools to ourselves and it was very relaxing.We recieved towels and a locker. In the end, the woman at the entrance asked us about our stay and called us a taxi to La Fortuna.
Paradise Hot Springs is lovely. If you are looking for a few thermal pools (approximately 7 different ones, not ranging too much in temperature for the mid range ones) and nicely kept grounds, this place will do the trick! We were greeted by David, who was extremely friendly and gave a very thorough explanation on the grounds and some of the health benefits to soaking in natural springs. You are given a locker and two towels (for a $10 USD deposit) to use, which is convenient. We stayed for approximately 2 hours on a rainy evening in La Forutna, which was a perfect activity to do. As commented by other reviewers, there are not a lot of people who come to this one, making the experience a romantic one. Recommended!
Traveled here with some friends a couple of years back. The hot springs were very clean and a great place to sit back and relax, or have some fun on the water slides. Great time!
We went to Paradise Hot Springs after a day of much hiking. The springs were so relaxing and refreshing , as well as beautiful! The evening meal was a presented buffet. The staff was pleasant and friendly.
The only reason this hot spring did not rate higher is due to a large group of school students that happened to be there during our visit. The Paradise Hot Springs costs considerably less than its competitors such as Baldi or Tabacon. To me, I don't need 25 pools like the ones in Baldi so this establishment is more of my style. Unfortunately, there was a large group of students present during my visit so the experience was not as relaxed or tranquil. The water in two pools and the jacuzzis were not nearly as hot as I have hoped or expected. All in all it was a pleasant experience.
Friendly and helpful staff. Intimate settings in the hot springs. Well maintained landscaping and clean hot spring pools. Good food. Also had vegetarian options.
The nicer hot springs was double but maybe I would have rather paid more. These were ok noting special. They looked better at night.
