Fodor’s Review

The luxury villas on this 12,000-acre ranch are shaded by old-growth trees on the volcano's windy west slope. The spa has volcanic mud (lodo) baths, a wooden sauna heated by steam from a fumarole, and naturally heated mineral pools -- all included in room rates. The sulfur smell takes a little getting used to. Activities include hiking, horseback riding, ATV trips, a canopy tour, and a farm tour (with cow-milking). Reaching the restaurant and spa requires steep climbs, but the staff can transport you in a golf cart. The two-room, hacienda-style villas have large private verandas; single villas are more private and even more luxurious.

Costa Rica: "Mud, monkeys and macho men"

(...) With so much to see en route, I chose not to go to the top, cleverly avoiding the camping option. Instead, I was staying in the rather wonderful Hotel Borinquen Mountain Resort and Spa. Set in spectacular scenery, it spreads out over a hillside with cattle roaming the pastures above and below. It has its own stables, riding being one to explore, along with quad bikes, which were great fun, Jeeps to get farther afield, or simply setting off on foot. However you see it, the countryside is beautiful.

Returning to the resort after an excursion was a joy. The enormous swimming pool was overhung by trees full of howler monkeys, meaning you could watch their activities from the comfort of your sunlounger – a proper armchair safari. Then there were the natural spa amenities, the resort being so close to the volcano that it has its own bubbling mud pools. A little wooden hut has been built on stilts directly above the best, creating a wonderful, natural steam room.You can follow this with a mud bath. The hot mud is decanted every morning into large urns, where it cools sufficiently to be smeared in warm lumps of gloop over your body. Dry off in the sun, shower off the mud, and wallow in one of three hot sulphur springs. Top off with a facial or massage and sleep like a baby. (...)
