So many spas.........so little time. Costa Rica's spas, mudbaths, hot springs, and theraputic day packages drench the mind, body and spirit with tropical, lush beauty. Visitors come year around to steep in the arousing colors, rich textures, stunning sights, and delicious scents of paradise.

The ideal Costa Rica spa vacation does not have to be limited to relaxing at a resort. Rafting, bungee jumping, surfing, hiking, biking, motoring, and zip-lining your way across Costa Rica while endulging in daily massages, exotic wraps, and hot springs, you can experience an adventurous spa-hopping vacation complete with the adrenaline-enducing excitement that merits a full decompression at the end of the day.

Spa vacations can come pre-packaged for you, but it's certainly not a necessity to plan your endulgences ahead of time, as nearly all the major hotels offer spa services that you can order during your stay, and no hotel is far away from a variety of day-spa locations that will pamper you from head to toe amid the green-on-green montage that is Costa Rica.

Would you like to relax your every muscle in natural hot springs beneath the glowing lava flow of a live volcano, under a sea of stars at night? End your class III white water rafting ride with a deep-muscle hot stone massage and salt scrub in the middle of the rainforest? Perhaps you'd like to hop right off the plane and ten minutes later be having a full swedish massage, manicure, pedicure, volcanic mud wrap and a cut and style before you head to the beach. Your options for spa endulgences in Costa Rica are as rich and varied as the dramatic landscape that will surround you on your visit.
