We fell in love with this place. It was like being in the garden of Eden. Beautiful birds we saw two cans and the thermal springs are out of this world. We did do a couples massage and the set up is so beautiful. I’ve been to smiles all around the world. This was one of the best just the natural openness of it and then you’re right by a river in an outdoor covered area. It’s just very relaxing.
