Everything about our stay was wonderful. It’s a gorgeous property with wonderful people. Just a slight hiccup when checking in. Only one person working, others were in the area, but no one could help. Another check in person would help as the trip up to the hotel is long and bumpy. Luis was not friendly or helpful.

They tried to charge me $24 for 6 slices of bread for my two babies ages 1 and 2. A sandwich on their own menu costs less. Outrageous and rude. Staff unhelpful rude. Would never recommend, especially bad for families with small children. Under 5 is not even allowed on tours.

The room was clean but needed some upkeep. We’ve stayed here before in nicer bungalows. The only real disappointment was the breakfast buffet was gone. The food was ok but not great and only 1 restaurant.

A beautiful location on the slopes of Rincon de la Vieja, Borinquen Thermal Resort is a treat in the heart of the Guanacaste region of Costa Rica. From the finely appointed rooms to the spacious, lush grounds, to the superb restaurants, this resort stay was one-of-a-kind. Staff was friendly, helpful, and good at their jobs. The pool (with swim up bar) and the natural thermal-fed hot pools were both relaxing and invigorating. The food and drinks were terrific any time of day and served by genial staff. There are thermal features on the property, a small, but quality hiking trail, and wildlife was abundant. With Spider and Howler Monkeys in the trees, iguanas and coatimunde roaming the grounds, and toucans and a wide variety of colorful birds overhead, we did not have to leave the property to enjoy nature's abundance. We also chose to venture with a knowledgeable guide to two photogenic waterfalls through a dense forest populated by many bird species. Borinquen Thermal Resort prides itself on sustainability, and staying there we really felt one with the environment.
