A $30 charge includes a steam bath, red clay mud bath, blue mud bath, underground hot and cold pools, box steam bath and three pools with different temperatures. The staff is very attentive and walks you through the spa processes. Skip the food, the sandwiches are all bread and very little filling. You can leave the spa and return so... More

My husband and I went to this spa and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves with the mud baths and the thermal pools. The dinner there was the best we experienced while we were in Cuenca. The grounds were very attractive and well-kept. We even met the owner and his son who were very gracious. We would gladly return to this spa in... More

OK, this place is overpriced, but it felt so great after hiking and being chilled to just sit in the thermal pool and hang out. The setting is lovely, the food is really quite good and not outrageously priced, we enjoyed it so much we even went back a few days later. Bring your sunscreen! More

Arizona motif. $10 will get you a hot, large pool, a small, medium pool, and a very small cold pool. Lunch was reasonable but drinks were somewhat expensive. Try the fruit drinks. More

Not bad for a day in the Thermal Pools . We went on good Friday at noon thinking the place would be empty. There were way to many kids, and no private showers, you had to stand in line with the families. The steam room, was nice, but the kids kept running in and out and making too much noise.... More

Get the spa package and take your time. Also keep your camera with you as the attendants will take great pictures of you covered with the red and blue volcanic mud. More

We've been 3 times. Grounds and aesthetics are beautiful, staff is attentive and the program seems unique. The only spa we've attended in Cuenca, it's different in that they run you through a number of treatments on a schedule. They have Turkish baths, mud hot tubs, steam boxes and hot and cold contrast baths. The mud baths are fun as... More

As a local resident, I've been at the spa three times over the last couple years, and I'm just not inclined to return. What is somehow missing is the peace and tranquility that I associate with a true retreat from the city... there are just too many people splashing around. The full treatment is good but if you do not... More
