Dinner 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM
Enjoy the best fine dining in La Fortuna, Arenal in our incredible restaurant Las Ventanas where the only thing better than the view is the food. Be careful to avoid the window seats if you are afraid of heights because the windows are angled out to allow you to look almost straight down a thousand feet to the river below! At night the distant mountains twinkle with the lights of cities thirty miles away. Be sure to dine here at least once during the day and once during the evening to capture the complete experience.

- Tres Cascasdas (Three Waterfalls)
Our gourmet buffet restaurant would be appropriately described as a “Tasting” experience. Here you will sample to your heart’s content a complete salad bar with our signature dressings, hot and cold soups of the day, assorted fresh baked breads, and a selection of hot entrée items of which a few will be specially prepared for you right at the buffet. The menu changes daily and may tend toward Italian one day to Asian the next. Our dessert bar offers small bite size portions to minimize your guilt while sampling them all and, of course, maybe returning for an extra piece of your favorite. Fresh fruit juices, tea and coffee are included. Even though it is a buffet you will have a waiter attending to your every need. We like to refer to it as a “Full Service Gourmet Buffet”.

Feb 04, 2026We highly recommend this place!
Our river tubing experience at Club Rio was truly outstanding, delivering a premium, VIP-level adventure from start to finish. The property itself is breathtaking, with beautifully maintained green areas, lush natural surroundings, and spectacular views of the Arenal Volcano that make the experience even more unforgettable. We would also like to highlight the exceptional work of the river guides, Gerald and Sivianny, whose professionalism, friendliness, and attention to detail made the activity not only safe but incredibly fun and enjoyable from beginning to end. A very special mention goes to the photography service by Jefry Urbina. Without a doubt, these are the most elegant, sharp, and professionally captured photos we have ever purchased from any tour or activity. The image quality is outstanding, and every moment is perfectly preserved. Beyond the adventure, Club Rio offers an excellent VIP hospitality experience. The restaurant located beside the Arenal River features delicious food, a beautiful atmosphere, and the ideal setting to relax after the activity. The level of care and warmth shown by every collaborator truly makes guests feel valued and well taken care of. Highly recommended for anyone visiting La Fortuna and looking for a high-end experience surrounded by nature. Unforgettable moments, exceptional service, and photos that are absolutely worth it.

Balanced vacation
Springs Resort was magical - great mix of activities and relaxing available. The hot springs and spa were great to relax in. The monkey slide is a blast. We had the best service from Tony at Tree Top Grill.

Once in a lifetime trip
From the second we arrived, I was mesmerized and I am not easily impressed! We have been to many upscale resorts but this one blew them out of the water! It is truly a unique property. It is a 4.5hr drive from Liberia airport. We hired a driver from ILT Costa Rica which made it a seamless journey. The hotel is located right in the middle of the rain forest. While at the pool above the hot springs, we saw several monkeys up in the trees which was a very cool experience. One thing we loved about the property was the ability to do multiple tours & activities on the property at Club Rio. The hotel has a quick bus shuttle to club rio down at the river & the activities desk makes it extremely convenient to book an activity at a minutes notice. The top activity I would recommend is the night rainforest walk. It is a once in a lifetime experience walking through the rainforest in the dark(with flashlights)hearing all the creatures. The expert guides will show you snakes, poison dart frogs, etc that you would never spot on your own. The major draw of this hotel are the hot springs. They are very private & you will never have to share them as there are over 20 of them. We were here 5 nights & each day that we spent here was more exciting than the last. We are already talking about coming back next year.

SUPER IMPRESSED
We were impressed by the photos online, but nothing compared to the magic of being there. We visited for our anniversary, and the staff made us feel truly celebrated, congratulating us everywhere we went. Our room was spacious and beautiful, with a bathroom that felt like a private retreat. The serene hot springs, breathtaking views, and delicious meals made our stay unforgettable. We visited the spa twice, once indoors and once outdoors surrounded by the trees, and it was an unforgettable experience. We will definitely be back.
