Spa Luxury: Thermal Spa, Massage & Wellness Experience in Rincón de la Vieja, Costa Rica

About this experience

Immerse yourself in a world of deep relaxation and natural wellness with Sensoria's Spa Luxury Experience, where the art of massage meets the healing power of volcanic mineral-thermal waters. At the heart of this experience is a 60-minute relaxing massage, thoughtfully designed to ease tension, restore balance, and reconnect you with yourself while surrounded by the sounds and beauty of the Costa Rican rainforest.

Your massage takes place at either our Spa Pool or Morpho Pool, two exceptional settings immersed in the rainforest and naturally fed by warm volcanic mineral-thermal waters. The Spa Pool takes its name from the Latin expression Salus per Aquam, meaning “health through water” a philosophy that perfectly captures the essence of this experience, combining the benefits of water, relaxation, and nature to promote a profound sense of well-being.

Following your massage, take time to unwind in the warm mineral-rich waters, naturally containing sulfates, calcium, magnesium, sodium, and other naturally occurring minerals. Carefully analyzed for their unique composition, these thermal waters create the perfect environment to slow down, breathe deeply, and fully embrace the tranquility of the rainforest.

To complement your wellness journey, enjoy a bottle of red or white wine per couple accompanied by a gourmet appetizer platter, served beside the Spa Pool. Surrounded by lush vegetation and the soothing sounds of nature, this intimate moment invites you to simply relax and enjoy the magic of Sensoria.

Your journey concludes with a chef-inspired gourmet lunch at La Casona, bringing together exceptional cuisine, wellness, and the natural beauty of Rincón de la Vieja.

Spa Luxury is more than a spa experience, it is an invitation to reconnect with yourself through massage, mineral-rich thermal waters, and the restorative power of nature.

Hike and waterfalls We had an amazing driver from our hotel. We stopped at a small cafe where we enjoyed delicious coffee and fresh made bakery items which were delicious as well. We really enjoyed our guide Joaquin. He was amazing! He is so passionate and knowledgeable. Our favorite part was being able to swim by the waterfalls. The only disappointing part were the roads. There were so many pot holes so the ride was very bumpy for about 20 minutes up to where the tour began.

100% Recommend Sensoria!! September 3, 2026, The views, hikes, waterfalls and especially the learning experience and getting to connect and be more educated on Costa Ricas rainforests and geographic / ecological ecosystems made this trip memorable and beautiful as well as unique. Learning about the environment of Costa Rica is like no other place on Earth and Sensoria definitely highlights these elements. The hot springs and waterfalls were amazing and the rain Falling in the forest as you hike was magical. Joaquin was an amazing guide and gave so much insight to the nature in Sensoria especially with the animals and plants. It was amazing to be one with nature especially with Joaquin, he is such an amazing speaker and was so passionate and insightful. The lunch was amazing too. Pablo was an excellent driver and made the ride safe and comfortable. We would definitely come back to Sensoria such a wonderful experience. Thank You! - The Asrafally Family.

Wonderful hike with great waterfalls The park the waterfalls everything is pretty amazing the drive here pretty bumpy lots of potholes and the hike is probably at least 2 1/2 miles to the first waterfall with lots of stairs up and down some pretty steep so make sure you’re in decent physical condition the waterfalls were amazing two out of three you can swim in, which felt awesome. After hiking in the jungle. I would recommend it just be prepared for the drive.

Highly recommend The best thing I did in Costa Rica was this excursion. We were a very small group of friends (3 total) who had travelled together on this one. First off, a shout out to our driver, Pablo, who got us there safely and back (2.5 hour drive each way!) and thoughtfully stopped at various points of interest along the way to show us local wildlife such as a three-toed sloth sleeping in a tree and toucans he spotted. He was absolutely adorable and he talked to us the whole way there and back. He was learning English and I had been learning Spanish, so we learned a lot of words from each other! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and sweet. At Sensoria itself, our tour guide was Joaquin. He was also extremely knowledgeable, taking great care to explain the wildlife, the plants, and the ecosystem. Highly educational experience. The hike itself was easy and beautiful. If you have trouble with stairs, however, you might want to skip on this as there were a lot of stairs. We did not get to see the beautiful blue waterfall because the volcano had erupted a couple of days previously, so the water was grey and filled with ash at the first stop, but a marvel to behold nonetheless. At all the other waterfalls, Joaquin took great photos of our group members using our phones so we would have the memories. He also was kind enough to carry our towels in his backpack for us because on the day we did this excursion, there was a steady rain that sometimes turned torrential. The hot spring and mud bath is a definite "must do." Lunch was fantastic. We chose the Costa Rican options and they were great. Coffee after lunch was superb. I would recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Costa Rica!

Real experience in a rainforest This was a beautiful and unique experience. I was excited to be close and enjoy the benefits of a volcano. I received forest and animal knowledge during the hike with Joaquin. At times the hike was challenging, however I love hiking and seeing the beauty of Costa Rica. I would absolutely do it again, as the reward was relaxing in the various natural pool and the mud at the end. This is a wonderful way to learn about the rain forest and how beautiful the country is. I highly recommend if you love a slow but challenging hike in one of the most beautiful places I’ve been to.

Most fun hike This is so cool honestly like insane the waterfalls and the trip was insane. As well as opening drinks to greet you and food after the tour. The hot springs and waterfalls we got to go into were so warm and crazy fun. The hike and animals you see along the way are nuts too.

Wonderful Experience We scheduled a group visit to Sensoria and had a wonderful time. We booked directly with the operator because we wanted to select an experience that was comfortable for pregnant women. We chose the Jaguar experience, which was lovely. The tour guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. The hikes through the jungle was moderate. The different waterfalls and pools were very relaxing and immersive. Finally, the food and beverages that were served were very good. The facilities were also very clean and well kept. The fee was reasonable. We also paid for round trip transportation from our resort. We would certainly do this tour again.

Best Experience Ever This was a tour of a lifetime. We were provided with the best customer service ever. Our tour guide was amazing. He was a walking library and taught us so much about the forest as we hiked through. The waterfalls were breath taking and our final soak in the Jaguar pool was just perfect. The whole tour was worth every penny. I honestly feel they need to up the price for what you receive.
