Reviews Summary

"We only went to the Spa for the day, but it was fantastic.
The location is amazing and so picturesque, and the staff took really good care of us.
The Spa is excellent with plenty of space so it doesn't feel too cramped.
The buffet lunch was excellent and the whole experience was good value for money."
Ed Moss
"Amazing experience at the spa. We got a “connect to your body” experience of sort which was very nice and relaxing. The place merits a lot and the food was amazing too. I wasn’t particularly excited about the Asado when I saw the variety of salads and greens that they had. Amazing experience. Don’t go very early as it can be pretty chilly until the sun comes up"
Mahan Parizi
"It's a beautiful location, but it goes downhill from there. They might as well remove the spa from the name. Unless you are staying there, don't plan on anything.
Massages... You can't make reservations for a massage ahead of time. We showed up right when they opened at 10, and all but one 1/2 hour of massage was booked. Yep, they only book a 1/2 hour massages. They only had 2 masseuses working. And no other spa services. No facials, pedicures, couples massages, nothing.
They will ONLY provide you with 2 towels: one before lunch and one after lunch. This means you get to go to lunch with a wet towel.
Lunch was very disappointing and close to not worth eating. All the meats were way overcooked, and the buffet was disjointed.
For the most part, there are no other beverage options besides wine and beer. These are only available for purchase in the restaurant, and there is no beverage service anywhere else on the property.
The "thermal* smelled more of chlorine than normal thermal water."
