We purchased a day pass to enjoy the beautiful hot springs at Rio Perlas Thermal Resort & Spa, and it was absolutely worth it! The pools were relaxing and well-maintained, and we also went on a scenic hike that made the experience even more special. One of the highlights was visiting the farm and getting to pet the animals—it added such a fun, unique touch. We had an amazing time overall and definitely plan to return when we’re back in Costa Rica!

Speechless. I have stayed so many places in my life and this is the most magical. I sprained my ankle our first day leaving our room. The owner scooped me up put me in a car and Viktor the owner at PURA PORA took me and gave us the most amazing experience. Then gave me a walking stick to get around with. Pura pora is a MUST GO! RIO PERLAS is the most peaceful romantic and friendliest resort Ive ever been too. And by far my favorite spot in Costa Rica. Our second day we ran around town and came back and soaked in the thermal pools by the river. Perfect temperature! Our room 139 is next to a waterfall that pools into a large pond with an outlook. Its located in Tapanti and you can hike around without leaving. Viktor also sculpted the most incredible art pieces around the resort that are fun to find. All in all it was the most memorable and sacred experience that I will cherish for all my life. Cant wait to come back.
