Arenal Kioro: Arenal Volcano Views, Hot Springs and In-Suite Jacuzzis

Though it's tempting to think of beauty as a single thing, like a white sand beach and aquamarine water, Arenal Kioro, near Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica, challenges such ideas with incredible volcano views and adventures. The Arenal Volcano is an active and impressive sight and is the area's biggest attraction. Lush gardens and hot springs are the standard at Arenal Kioro; its environmental-friendly design is all about leaving minimal impact on its surroundings while supporting the local economy. There's not a single bad view in the house, and couples find that the volcanic views and utter tranquility set a romantic mood.

Enjoy the Costa Rican setting and the views from the two pools or take a dip in the nifty hot springs and discover what the rage is all about. Mineral-dense, the natural thermal springs are a way to de-stress and get in touch with nature. The relaxation doesn't end there: guests also have free access to Titoku Hot Springs. A shuttle takes guests to the eight hot springs at Titoku (Costa Rican for "water from the gods") where the untouched vibe makes you feel like you're in a land before time began! All that steam might leave you hungry, and there are three delicious ways to take care of that hunger: tasty shrimp at Heliconias or hearty sandwiches at Orqu?deas hit the spot with a side of panoramic views. Kick back at Bar El Higuer?n with a couple of margaritas and watch for lava flows to light up the sky after nightfall at Arenal Kioro.

Arenal Volcano hiking tours are a good way to get an early start on the day if you're looking for a little adventure. If the hotel's fitness center just doesn't get your heart racing fast enough, an exhilarating zip-line tour definitely will. Relaxed or not, sleeping might not be the first thing on your mind after you walk into the gorgeous suite. Each suite features two terraces that have panoramic views of the volcano and an amazing indoor Jacuzzi for an extra bit of pampering.
