This property was beautiful, comfortable, and made you feel one with nature. They have onsite spa, hot spring pools to soak in, and outdoor volcanic mud experience that is very unique. The food at the main restaurant is delicious, and the staff are very friend. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful property with large pool area and thermal pools with walking trails. Stayed in junior suite high above and was able to see amazing sunset. Room service offerings were limited to dinner, resort is not easily walkable, you need to request shuttle if you stay higher up in suites. Road to get to resort was very rocky, but worth it.

Beautiful grounds and accommodations. You can walk to the pool or the thermal pools or ask for a ride. Food is inconsistent with breakfast good, lunch excellent and dinner a disappointment. You are at least an hour on a bumpy dirt road from anything so it is not like you can eat elsewhere. Service is great except for breakfast where they are understaffed. I wish they had a trail map with signs and enabled you to explore on your own. Instead they want you to sign up for guided excursion for $ which some might want but not all. We stayed for 2 nights which was perfect.

This is a great place for spa. It is out of the way so unless you rent a car - you are stuck at the resort. We were there in the off season, so we only had access to the one restaurant. However, the staff was very friendly, the pool and spas were very clean and the staff was friendly. One major downside is that the bungalows are going to be uphill. So going to and from the pools and spas from breakfasts and/or excursions will have you hiking a fairly steep road.

Great place to relax in nature with thermal baths

The resort area is fantastic and the thermal baths and excursions great. Our only criticism would be the restaurant food was not up to the same level as the hotel and what it had to offer.

Relax while surrounded by nature

Beautiful grounds and super comfortable room. Loved the hot springs, volcanic mud bath, and pool! Amazing wildlife all around. Great short trail and petroglyph. Not easy to get there, but worth it when you arrive! We did not do the zipline or spa but it looked fun! Got busy with day trippers at the pool mid day.

Bel endroit pour séjourner

Villa avec des employés très engagés à assurer notre bien-être. Belle vue pour le coucher du soleil. La piscine, mud bath et les thermales sont très bien entretenus. Point négatif : le transport vers les chambres se fait en véhicule à moteur, ce qui est tout à fait compréhensible étant donné l’éloignement des chambres par rapport à la réception, au restaurant et à la piscine. Cependant, d’un point de vue environnemental, ce n’est pas idéal. L’équipe devrait envisager de se doter d’une flotte de véhicules électriques.

Remote rainforest relaxation.

Very relaxing and very remote. Great place if you want to escape the crowd but the menu and dinning options will get old after a few days so I would not make a week out it. Best canopy sunsets ever.
