We came here for an excursion because we wanted to go to a volcano but Arenal was over 3 hours from our resort at the RIU Palace. We absolutely loved it. It was very quiet, I think we only saw one couple actually staying at the resort. We were a group of about 25 people. We started with ziplining which... More

After a ride on horrible roads, you arrive at the entrance and the only thing you can say is WOW. What a resort! Big, luxuruous rooms. A perfect service. Well kept grounds. The spa is heaven. Avoid weekends, because too many visitors from outside the hotel who take advantage of the facilities without contribution. When we were there in April... More

I have... More

great pool and hot springs, nice rooms and good food. the guides are nice and we had a very good horse ride. the hotel area is large and might be a bit problem to carry kids around... the restaurant has good food with reasonable prices.the highlight of the hotel is the pool and springs.

This is a beautiful resort out in the middle of no where. The volcanic rocks by the river are absolutely incredible. The resort is immaculately kept. The rooms are beautiful with wonderful views, lots of privacy, strong water pressure, honor bar and safes. The mud pot is so much fun to play in, not to mention the hot springs and... More

Borinquen Mountain Resort is about 22 kilometers down a rocky, bumpy, dusty road off the Panamerican Highway. It's definitely a place to get away from it all. The property is pretty, with many trees and flowers. The room my wife and I had was pleasant, with amenities like a refrigerator, coffee maker, and air conditioning. The beds were comfortable and...
