Costa Rica is one of the best honeymoon destinations in the world, and this gloriously natural hideaway shows why. Unique and magical, the Tabacon Thermal Resort and Spa is home to the largest network of natural flowing hot springs, and their healing properties are used to help the wellness of guests. The breathtaking spa uses a blend of natural rainforest elements to conjure treatments for everyone, from individuals and lovestruck couples to those looking for luxury family holidays.
The resort ensures that each guest is treated like royalty, with treatments tailored to their individual requirements.

Nestled within a 900-acre tropical reserve at the base of the Arenal Volcano, a stay at the Tabacon Resort and Spa is an unmissable opportunity for you and your loved one to live with nature.
The best time to take your dream trip to Costa Rica is between December and April – this is the height of the dry season, boasting spectacular sunny days with minimal rainfall. Visit between May and July if you want to be further lulled into bliss with the soothing sound of rain accompanying your massages, but avoid months between August and November, since Costa Rica experiences hurricanes during this period!
