About
Aguas Termales Quepos is managed by a Costa Rican family. Enjoying nature and hospitality are their priorities. No tiles like in a swimming pool, but the pools are located in a natural environment. You are surrounded by trees and you have a view at the river. You can visit the location during the evening as well. With candle lights a romantic atmosphere is being created.

We just visited this place on a few weeks ago and had a great time. We ate at the Restaurant, the food was delicious and very reasonable. We had no issues at all and had a Fantastic day here. We will be back for sure.

Nightmare. Avoid at all costs.
May 2021 • Couples
STAY AWAY. We made legitimate reservations with a tour agency, who issued us a voucher. We paid in full. Upon arrival, Marco and the other girl at the front desk refused us entry, despite admitting they had accepted the reservation the day prior. She claimed she accepted the reservation but that it was a new agency that she had never worked with, and thus- she could not allow us inside. She even called the agency on the phone who confirmed that the reservation was valid, and we were still not allowed inside. Both refused to allow us to speak to management about the situation or their behavior, and actually laughed about the whole thing. I have reported them to the tourist police, and please- DO NOT GO HERE. There are other options for hotsprings which are legitmate businesses who care about their customers.

A fun day
Dec. 2020 • Couples
We used waze to get here from uvita. It was not a stressful drive. It had the right amount of adventure. The springs were not hot. It had just rained so not even warm. But they are really cool. The Resteraunt attached is good. It is cash only.

Stunning!

We had an absolutely amazing time here! The drive in was definitely interesting but nothing unmanageable. The pools are stunning and the river is refreshing. We had the pools to ourselves for most of our visit and would definitely make the drive again!

My husband and I loved this! These hot springs are natural and romantic unlike the Balti hot springs that are crowded and more of a party scene. If you're looking to relax and have a romantic time, this is the place to go!

Out of the Crowd
Jul. 2019
This is an incredible place out of Quepos in Dos Bocas, Hatillo, where you will avoid the crowd to relax in the warm water in middle also of the exuberant forest next to a river of crystal clear water. Highly recommended. Over there you can have so delicious costarican style food. Definitely a great place to pass a good day.

Little piece of hean
Jun. 2019 • Couples
After a long day of traveling and rafting, sitting in the springs were nothing short of magical. We even stayed in the as it rained to the night. The facility is lovely, very clean and professional with people to help at every corner. Drinks were very good, but pricey. We did have dinner. It is a buffet with a mix of some Costa Rican food like gallo pinto and mango salad and odd things like pasta and some creamy mushroom chicken. There were a lot of options on it and a salad bar in addition to tea and coffee and soup. It is ok for the extra $22 but nothing mind blowing, made for an easy night of relaxing though!

Little paradise
Mar. 2019 • Couples
Beautiful hot springs, relaxing atmosphere, surrounded by nature. A few springs with different temperatures and a nice cool river. You can spend a great day here. We stayed for five days in the ecolodge (tipi calathea) next door and visited the hot springs a couple of times. In the small restaurant you can get some refreshments and a great casado for lunch. The dirt road getting there, is a bit rough, but it’s really worth the trip. Use the app “waze” to navigate, google maps does not know this route. But there is a sign in Hatillo and just follow the road.

Hidden Gem (seriously.)
Mar. 2019 • Family
This place is a must go. We got onto a gravel road in Hatillo and drove for about 30 minutes. The road wasn’t amazing but we’ve seen worse here in Costa Rica. At some point you have to cross a tiny river (and it’s dry season!) so a 4x4 is highly recommended. Very nice place, lots of shade and many pools. Some are cold, some warm, but the best part was the river below. You can get there by going down a small trail near the pools. Surprisingly, the river is very warm and it has a few very small waterfalls which are pleasant and the water is deep enough to swim in. We had lunch there as well, and were not disappointed-the casados were fresh and very delicious. The owners were friendly and the surroundings were gorgeous, we enjoyed ourselves a lot and felt safe and at home. Do not think twice before visiting this truly hidden gem.

Relaxing in Tropical Splendour
Jan. 2019 • Couples
I spent a full day at this thermal pool place and recommend it highly. It was independent of any hotel so during the day it wasn't crowded. You might need to book it online because they limit the number of people allowed in. Well run, clean, comfortable with drinks and food available poolside or in their restaurant. You can choose to go during the day or after 5.

We tried to get to your hot springs today but found that the roads were not drivable. We took the route that Google Maps recommends from Ojochal. We went quite far with many obstacles and wrong turns with roads that should not be driving on. We drove an all wheel drive and relied on Google maps. This route is so dangerous! We finally decided to give up when we passed some washed out roads and hardly were able to turn around. We hear that there is a much better route to get to your place but google does not lead anyone to that route....We also were told but could not find this route: Access from the main highway is past Domincal about 5 Km and there should be a sign Agua Termales...Is this still there?

I am so sorry to hear that... Unfortunately Google Maps is not very updated about the roads in Costa Rica. The last 8 kilometers don't exist and gives therefore wrong directions. Because of that we adjusted the direction on this page. In Costa Rica it is better to use Waze or Maps.me. From Ojochal you have to drive in the direction of Quepos. 7 kilometers north from Dominical there is a small village called Hatillo. In Hatillo, look for the soda La Unica (that is on Google Maps). In front of the soda La Unica you'll find a sign, you have to enter this road. From here on it is 8 kilometers, a beautiful road that is a bit adventurous but not dangerous.

Hey. Is it possible to come to the pools without a meal? What hours are you open? Should I book a place? Thanks

Yes, that is possible. A reservation is not necessary, the hot springs are open every day from 7AM - 9PM. Because it is rainy season, we recommend to go in the morning and with a 4x4 car.
