About Arenal Manoa Hot Springs Resort
The easiest way to picture a stay at Arenal Manoa Hot Springs Resort is as a slow loop between warm water and green surroundings. The hot spring bath and the public bath anchor the resort's wellness side, and the heated pool and outdoor pool share the same relaxed pace. Sun loungers, sun umbrellas and a sun terrace give you somewhere to settle afterward, and the pool bar keeps a drink within reach. The grounds include a garden and outdoor furniture, so there is room to sit outside even when you are not in the water.
When you want something more restorative, the spa and wellness center offers massage services and beauty services. Active days are just as easy to arrange. The resort has a tour desk and offers hiking, cycling and horse riding, and rafting on the Toro River can also be arranged. Nearby attractions such as Caño Negro and the Venado Caves are among the outings the resort can organize. Car hire and an airport shuttle (additional charge) help with getting around, and free parking is available if you are driving yourself.
Meals can be as casual or as leisurely as you like. The on-site restaurant serves international cuisine, a coffee shop and a snack bar cover lighter moments, and a happy hour is available. Room service is available when you would rather stay in. Families will find kid meals and a kid-friendly buffet, and family rooms are available.
Rooms range from the 592 sq ft Junior Room to the 2,540 sq ft Villa, and many have a terrace. Some offer Arenal Volcano views, and the top-tier Chato Suites and the Villa have their own private pool. Free WiFi is available, the front desk is open 24 hours, and the resort has soundproof rooms and facilities for disabled guests. Meeting and banquet facilities and a business center are there for guests who need them. With 24-hour security, key card access and contactless check-in and check-out, the practical details are handled too.
