"We spent a wonderful half day walking g around the grounds enjoying the hummingbirds,butterflies,gardens,etc. Wish we has brought our swimming suits so we could have enjoyed the mud baths and hot springs . It was worth the 20 dollars. We had forgot the lights on our rental car so battery dead. Resort help was very helpful and got us going."
