Woohoo! Hot thermal baths in Mexico. What a wonderful experience. Multiple baths with steaming…read morehot water. You can spend the day here - baths and restaurants and bars. If you want a good hot soak, this is the place to go!

Though my airbnb host claimed a preference for Escondido Place, advance research told me that La…read moreGruta would be cleaner and more to my liking. Both places, I was warned, will be packed on the weekends so I opted for a weekday visit. Advance research won't just help you decide which place is more "you" but it might also reveal to you things that you might not have discovered if you failed to investigate. For one, you should arrive knowing that you definitely want to get yourself in the pool tunnel that leads to the enclosed grotto, hopefully when the latter is dumping out buckets of water. Am I getting ahead of myself? La Gruta is a place for which I have no US equivalent. It's not a US-style "water park" nor is it a fancy place to sunbathe and swim. There's nothing fancy at all about La Gruta. Mostly, it's a series of warm pools, chaise lounges, lawns, food, and drink. I'd have been happy enough laying by the largest pool, in the sun, occasionally dipping into the warm waters but I was happier once I found the pool that leads to the tunnel and the grotto. La Gruta costs about $12US per person to enter. Bags are quickly checked at point of entry to ensure that no outside food or drink is brought in (do bring your own towels). A refundable cash deposit is required to obtain a locker key and the locker room and changing areas are clean and functional. Once inside and changed, claim your chaise lounge (or table and chairs) with your towel and let the day begin. You've hopefully packed a good book, a comfortable swimsuit, a hat, and sunscreen; all will be used. There's at least 5 different pools at La Gruta, of varying sizes and depths. Some have occasional water spouting from above and others are quiet. Each seems to have its own appeal. The way it's built you can't sit beside the pool that leads to the tunnel and the grotto but you should definitely find it. Then, keep returning until that water spout in the grotto is activated. Guests line up in the water to take their turn getting pelted. It's invigorating and fun. Other stuff: * I hired a driver to take me here and back. It's a short distance away from central SMA but you cannot get here on foot. * Some pools have tree leaves in them, not excessive, but probably not as pristine as one would hope for. This didn't affect my enjoyment of the pools. * Massage, food, and drink also available. I sampled none but heard that those massage appointments fill up fast.

I would highly highly recommend this place! It was my first time and San Miguel and a friend…read morerecommended to go here. There are some tips to make your experience, even that much more enjoyable. I will give you those tips in just a moment. The place is so beautiful in nature. There is a lovely spa which I would highly recommend to get a treatment. I left there floating and feeling so relaxed. So here's some tips that I would highly recommend: 1) Get there as soon as it opens. You will beat the crowds and you will also get one of the chaise lounge chairs, that are are near the thermal baths. 2) I was greeted by wonderful Leticia who gave me a tour of the whole place. As soon as you buy your ticket, ask for directions to make your life a little easier :-) I'd recommend that as you enter, go LEFT past the swimming pools and then you will see these chairs, and you will be very close to the actual hottest thermal baths. It is interesting, because it looks like these little igloos on an incline. You enter the first little igloo and it's heated and then you keep going through multiple ones. It is like something most of us, have never seen before. The water for me was the perfect temperature because it was very warm, but not so hot that you couldn't tolerate it. 3) Bring your own towel and if you have a lock, bring it. I was traveling and didn't have a lock, but I easily purchased one there at the very entrance when I bought my ticket. 4) Treat yourself to a massage with Gabriela. I am not kidding, I've had massages all over the world and I think it was the best one I've ever had. I did the hot stone massage which I absolutely loved. She spent so much time with me and it was half of the cost as it would in the US! The spa is located all the way towards the right as you enter the property. 5) I went to the Mexican restaurant on the property, and had the house mole. It was absolutely delicious. The restaurant is closer to the spa. There is one server who was helping everybody so it will not be a fast experience. But why would you want it to be?

Giving one star is too much This place is far from the pics…read moreand fame that shows their pics Is so dirty, everywhere and lack of maintenance The water is not so good as well and the Caverns are tiny and narrow to enter....simply disgusting Once you arrive there is no directions where to go Yo go and walk and walk and no one to help you. Went to the spa ( by the end of the road ) and the answer was to go back to the entrance to buy the massage ? what is this ? The lockers and changing rooms were so dirty Don't loose your time in this dirty place.....this is far away from the beautiful and clean San Miguel de Allende and far from what I think Mexico Tourist industry is.
