We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! The ambiance was perfect for our honeymoon, and the thermal hot springs were the highlight of our visit. The staff was professional and helpful, though not overly chatty. The location provides stunning views and the private hot springs just for hotel guests were amazing. However, the dining prices were a bit on the high side, and we wished the breakfast was served on-site instead of a short drive away.

I had the most incredible stay at Tabacon Resort & Spa! The hot springs are absolutely beautiful, and having exclusive access to Shangri-la Gardens made it feel like we were in our own paradise. The rooms were spacious and modern, but the dining options could be a little hit or miss, with some dishes that could have used more variety. Overall, it's a wonderful getaway, particularly for relaxation and enjoyment of nature.

My stay at the hotel was incredible, with mesmerizing volcano views and rejuvenating thermal waters. The staff provided exceptional service, making everything feel special. The dining was memorable, offering delicious food and drinks, but I did find myself wishing for more time at the spa. The surroundings are absolutely breathtaking and really added to the overall experience. However, a minor downside was the damp smell in the room that I noticed upon arrival.
