The Four Seasons is a chain of luxury resorts with a reputation for world-class service and facilities. The Four Seasons Costa Rica is located on a hillside on the scenic Peninsula Papagayo. The focus of the resort is on natural beauty. The resort tries hard to provide luxurious accommodations that blend in with the natural surroundings instead of contrasting and drawing attention away from it.
The Four Seasons has two pristine beaches available to the guests as well as a golf course and a full service spa. Guests here may choose from lounging on the beach or relaxing by the resort's freshwater pool. Tennis courts are also located on premises. The resort offers 24-hour in-room dining as well as three restaurants offering Latin cuisine, Italian food and steaks.

Tabacon Grand Spa Thermal Resort offers a view of Arenal Volcano in the distance from select rooms. The geothermal power from this active giant provides natural hot springs formed by rainfall that enters the earth's fissures, heats up through contact with magma deep inside the earth and then returns to the surface to flow at temperatures up to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. There are other hot springs resorts in Costa Rica, but only Tabacon has various springs with a range of consistent temperatures and the perfect mineral content for bathing without the smell of sulfur. The use of these springs is free and unlimited to resort guests.
In addition to luxurious rooms, Tabacon also has the Grand Spa. The spa is built as an open-air treatment facility with full views of the surrounding natural wonders. From couple's treatments to co-ed hot tubs and easy access to the thermal springs, there is much to choose from during a day of pampering.
