    My family and I had the most wonderful time. Jose at the front desk was awesome and gave us the perfect recommendations. The rooms were super cute and clean, the food was great, and the pools were just amazing. Everyone working was super friendly. We booked the mudslinger, and Trina was our guide. She was the best ever. She made the experience relaxing and comfortable. I can't wait to come back! 10/10 experience.

    Loved the experience. Except for Bathroom auto lighting.
    A bit bright at night. Possibly have a dimer for the night time.
    Came here before renovation which had kitchenettes and loved it. Back again with the new rooms. Loved it the same.
    Food at the restaurant/bar area delicious and healthy!!! Ended eating most meals at Dr. Wilkinson's
    Thank you to the cordial staff made stay even better!

    This is place is wonderful!! Exactly as advertised if not better! Seven and Jose at the front desk are awesome!! They truly made me feel like the resort was just for me!! Loved the mineral pools and mud bath. I have level 4 arthritis in my knees and after soaking in these healing waters my knees haven't hurt all week! I was traveling solo for a wellness journey and I definitely found a great spot! Ask for the pool view upgrade!! a
