Map View of this hotel.
The hot springs, pool and waterslide, and kid-friendly swim-up bar are the highlights at Tabacon – this is a great place for school-age kids and teens to spend the day in the water. Meanwhile, parents can enjoy the restaurant and bar that overlook the pool area. Another big perk is that the cost of the hot springs is included in the hotel rate, a big savings for families. The property is expansive and lovely, and rooms have nice patios. There are plenty of interesting activities in the nearby area too.
