I had a great time soaking in the hot mineral springs. The price is great, especially for the morning and evening soaks. The staff is friendly and informative. If you need a towel or a lock for your locker, you can purchase them. They have a couple vending machines for drinks and snacks. They offer massages. This is a very low key, no frills hot springs pool. Bathing suits are required. The water does make your skin and hair feel soft and silky. My sore muscles were relaxed, when I left. The water does have a little of the mineral sulfur in it; so there is the slight, "Sulfur," smell. Don't let that turn you off. They keep the water at about 104°. If you like the warmer water stay near where the water comes into the springs pool. I prefer slightly cooler water; so, I stayed at the far end. I will definitely return when I'm in the area. One of the questions asked was, "Do they have a cold plunge pool? If you are looking for the standard 5'x5' (40°-50°) plunge pool, no, they don't. The swimming pool is heated to 89°. It is a normal, chlorinated pool, but the chemical treatment is perfectly balanced, and you don't smell the chlorine. ***Someone on Google said that they are open until 10:00 p.m. This is incorrect. I confirmed it with the staff. They are only open until 9:00 p.m.

Nice hot springs that' s been open forever! I've been coming here since the 70's and my grandfather used to come here from the 1930's to the 1970's ! Established in 1907, this hot springs has a nice clean single hot pool about 2' deep. You will sit with other folks and though there is some conversation going on, it's done fairly quietly and respectfully most times, obviously you'll get some louder people so expect that on occasion. There is also a nice large comfortable temp swimming pool with a slide and area for kids, with chairs and tables to sit and relax. We went on a weekday from 12-4 and there wasn't a lot of people. Weekends are especially busy at times. There are campsites and some small cabin rentals here also. There is a large grassy area in front of building for picnicking as you can come and go as long as you have wrist band on. No food served here, with vending machines for drinks. You can bring in your own water and munchies if you want. There is what they call an early session that goes from 7am-12 noon for 18$ which is nice also.

Love this place. You take the good with the bland and it adds up to a mellow spot to enjoy mineral water, in a man made tub, surrounded by palm trees and green oaks. The water is the star of the show, it keeps me going, erasing body pain, mental distress and resetting my nervous system. Say hi to the lifeguards, they're the best! 10+ points if you get to meet Sunny, the orange cat. ♥️

Finally find a spot to relax and unwind both body and mind. Just a clear thinking and a deep inhale exhale. Thank you so much for this wonderful day Avila hot springs.

$18 for 7am to noon. Worth every penny! Shallow mineral springs water pool and larger swimming pool to cool off. Don't be alarmed by the outdoor shower temperature, it warms up quickly. There are separate shower/locker rooms as well. Upon entry, Sunny the friendly resident cat directed us to the pools. Yes, there are PVC pipes in the mineral pool, but this is likely a necessity due to the high mineral content of the water. 10/10, will return!
