What an amazing anniversary afternoon at River Oaks! We booked a couples massage that came with a 30 minute soak. We arrived early and grabbed a bottle of wine to share in the garden before our treatment time. They had our soak ready early so we moved inside to finish our wine. After a soak we enjoyed wonderful massages. The perfect way to Kick off the weekend. Thank you! read more

I booked an appointment for only myself that included a one hour soak and a one hour massage for my birthday. I arrived early and the two women at the front desk were not friendly and gave the impression that they did not enjoy their role. It would have been nice to have the option to soak outside under the oaks. But instead, I was placed in a room looking at four walls. Aesthetically, the room was not appealing. The room could have been cleaner. As there was cobwebs on the walls and the table and chairs were dusty. There were dead bugs in the light covers that were overhead. Erin, the massage therapist was awesome, it was very relaxing and she even offered me a towel at the end for the shower. At the end of my visit, I went to the front desk to pay, and the staff was unfriendly, and gave me two envelopes to tip the therapist and guest services. The tip for guest services is for those at the front desk that pour a beverage for you and show you to the hot tub. Personally, I thought this was a very tacky gesture for guest services to request a tip. Upon leaving the grounds, I noticed that the grass had not been mowed in awhile and was turning yellow. I would have given this review less stars but the friendly and attentive massage therapist made up for the poor customer service at the front desk. read more

Overall, this is a nice, relaxing spa located within the River Oaks retirement community, making it a peaceful place to unwind. We booked the Sip & Soak experience, but there were a few aspects that didn't quite meet our expectations. We had to carry our own wine tasting tray out to the mineral soak area, which felt unusual for a spa experience. It would have been a nice touch if the staff had delivered it or offered assistance. Another surprise was that towels are not included. I've never been to a spa that didn't provide complimentary towel service - you either have to bring your own or rent one, which seemed like an unnecessary extra for guests. The wine tasting itself was enjoyable, but the pours were served in tiny plastic sampling cups, which made the experience feel less refined than expected. The view from our soaking area was also disappointing. Rather than looking out over lush vineyards, we were facing dried vines straight ahead, with construction equipment and machinery off to the left. The green vineyards were off to the right but weren't really the view from where we were soaking. Despite these shortcomings, the mineral soak itself was relaxing and the overall atmosphere was peaceful. With a few improvements, the experience could feel much more in line with the premium spa experience the setting suggests. read more

I booked a 2-hour private mineral soak overlooking the vineyard and unfortunately left very disappointed. About an hour into my reservation, a staff member entered my private soaking area while I was nude. I called the front desk and was told it was likely due to a shift change mistake. At the end of my soak, once the jets turned off, I noticed visible buildup/discoloration inside the tub that made me seriously question how well it had been cleaned before my appointment. When I brought my concerns and photos to the front desk, there was very little response or acknowledgment. To their credit, I later noticed a partial refund had been issued, but after also sending an email directly to the business and waiting nearly two weeks without any response, I felt compelled to share my experience publicly. The location and vineyard setting are beautiful, but for the price and type of experience being offered, I expected much better privacy standards, cleanliness, and customer service. read more

We did the Wine Maker package, which included a 1-hour soak followed by a 1-hour massage, and it was such a perfect, relaxing experience from start to finish. The property is beautiful, super clean, and incredibly peaceful exactly what you want in a hot springs spa. Every staff member we interacted with was kind and welcoming. A special shoutout to Jolyn, who was my massage therapist she was AMAZING. I was celebrating my birthday, and she truly made my visit feel extra special. Her massage was incredible, and I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. My boyfriend had Joshua, and he also had an amazing experience he couldn't stop raving about how great his massage was. Lastly, Keana at the front desk was so friendly and helpful, which really set the tone for the entire visit. Highly recommend this place if you're looking to unwind, celebrate something special, or just treat yourself. We'll definitely be back! read more

Oct 19, 2025. Reserved tub 19 for the view but at 145 pm it was in full sun. I had assumed all the tubs had bed. Set up with trees for shade or the fencing shaded them. This tub looked very clear with clear water. We were moved yo number 26 which we suspect was dirty as they first told us they would have to games up another tub to live us. Suddenly 16 was already hot. Well my daughter commented the water was murky and yellow. Not like the first tub we had reserved. It was hot out and not wanting to climb the hill back to lobby again we trusted them and took it but couldn't help doubting it was clean and our soak was not relaxing. My daughter kept finding long black hairs in the decking by the tub. The decking clearly was not clean and Trash is not dumped from the can between guests. The landscaping adjacent the tubs as you walk to end from them is just grass. It needs shrubs. The oath is only paved on concrete half way down then it turns to awful pea gravel that always gets into your flip flops and you are trying to stand on one leg and dump rocks hurting your feet. The decking by tub has soft spots in the wood now and needs refurbishment. Overall I feel that if I can't trust I'm not soaking in used water and it's yellow and murky I can't come back. This stresses me, doesn't relax me. And overall I think some investment is needed in maintenance and upgrades. Finish the concrete pathway to tubs. Trudging in gravel isn't a luxury experience. Sweep the decks between guests for hair and more. read more

A great way to start a vacation is by soaking in a therapeutic mineral spring tub and receiving a relaxing massage. This Hot Springs spa has been here for over 16 years. When it was first built, it was very remote and surrounded by grassy hills. Weddings have been held here along with other events. Now fast forward to 2025 and houses are everywhere and more are being built daily. This was such a relaxing experience first thing in the morning. The artesian mineral water just feels so good on the body and loosens up the muscles. I arrived early and was able to really enjoy my soak. I had a nice room all to myself with some distant vineyard views. Once my soak was complete which was 30 minutes complimentary, I headed for my massage. I opted for a Hot Stone Massage (a favorite). Jane was my masseuse. She has been in the business for thirty years and she knew what she was doing. Definitely one of the best Hot Stone massages I have ever had. The spa was tidy and clean and there were showers to use after treatments. Locker rooms, showers, his/hers bathrooms, robes, slippers, towels, drinks (including wine) are all included. Parking is easy as they have their own private lot. The grounds are just gorgeous and I wish I would have had time to sit outside and just take in the beauty of the surrounding area. TIP: There is a ton of construction going on in the area right now so be prepared to hear trucks and other equipment being used while you are in the mineral water soaking tubs. This was the only negative. I look forward to returning another time. read more

Perfect place to visit during a wine tasting excursion when you're in or near Paso Robles, or if you're just passing through town. The hot tubs are amazing with some tubs looking over the vineyards. You can even order wine while in the tubs. They offer full range of services including massages. read more

River Oaks Hot Springs Spa - Indoor tub - Day Spas Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Relaxing Birthday Getaway in Paso Robles I visited this spa in Paso Robles with my partner as a birthday treat, and it was a really lovely and peaceful experience overall. We booked a special package that included a birthday touch--a small cheese platter and a bottle of champagne--which was a sweet gesture, though the platter was definitely on the smaller side. The outdoor jacuzzi time was super relaxing and a perfect way to start our spa day. It felt private and serene, and the warm soak set the tone for the rest of our visit. However we got very itchy not even half way through our spa time and we just sat out of it waiting to be called for our massage. And you can see over the fence is all houses, thankfully no one was living in them yet but it wasn't tooo private. What I really appreciated was the couple's massage that followed--we were in the same room, which made it feel more intimate and connected. The massage therapists were professional and made us both feel at ease. It was a great way to spend a birthday--peaceful, pampering, and special. If you're looking for a relaxing couples experience in Paso, this spa is definitely worth checking out. read more

I really enjoy the hot springs here. The service is great. They have outdoors and indoors tub. I prefer the outdoor it's super cute you are overlooking the wineries and you can bring your snacks and maybe a beverage too. My complain would be to change the shower curtains and the snacks they sell needs a little love, but you can bring your own. Great place to decompress and enjoy a relaxing time. read more

After hearing about the mineral springs here in Paso Robles, I started yelping for local places. Hands down this had the best reviews so we made a reservation for a private mineral bath for 1 hour. When we arrived we were greeted by Heather who checked us in, told us where the locker room was and instructions on how to use the private mineral bath. One hour was plenty of time. It was already on and ready for us when we arrived. It was covered but had a big opened window. It was nice and relaxing. Also very therapeutic! *They pump in the mineral water from a well *Massages and other treatment available *Plenty of parking in the lot *They offer a wine flight with a charcuterie board *Prices are cheaper during the week Will definitely be going back here on my next trip this way!' read more

Ahhhhhh! Sooooo relaaaxing! I love that they offer a variety of packages to choose from for couples. We tried booking an extended massage, but unfortunately, we should've booked with time - we were trying to book two days before - lesson learned! However, we were able to have a very relaxing experience. We booked a 30 minute mineral bath and a 60 minute couples massage. We were so happy to have done the mineral bath prior to the massage - it was relaxing! I love that they offer drinks (including sparkling wine) to add to your experience. Also, I initially thought a 30 minute mineral bath wasn't going to be enough and honestly, it felt just right and I'm also glad we did a mineral bath prior to the massage, at least my muscles didn't feel so tight during the massage. All in all, the spa provides a well rounded experience: male/female bathrooms with lockers and amenities, robes and slippers, towels, drinks, relaxing spa music, and all you need for relaxing. Can't wait to return! read more

Our experience was good overall, and we did enjoy the spa, but the check-in process was really disappointing. When we arrived, the older woman who checked us in didn't ask if it was our first time or explain anything about the experience. Because of that, we didn't know we were supposed to change before going to the spa, weren't told about using the pixie dust, and weren't offered robes. We were given no guidance at all, which made it frustrating to later see other guests being warmly welcomed and fully informed. I really think they need to do better with first-time guests. The only thing that truly saved the experience was the young woman who checked us out--she was incredibly sweet and apologetic when I explained what happened. She even said she wished she had been there to check us in. Her kindness made a big difference. read more

River Oaks Hot Springs is the place to go if you want a proper massage! My wife and I have been customers there for several years now and always come away feeling fabulous.

River Oaks Hot Springs Spa - Building - Day Spas Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Wasn't planning on leaving a review, but after taking the time to share our experience privately and receiving no response, the lack of follow-up speaks volumes about their customer service. Email sent 4/25: Hello, I'm hoping this email reaches the right person. Yesterday, we had a spa day with four appointments for two couples, and while most of our experience was lovely, there was one interaction at the beginning that left us very disappointed. I want to start by saying that all of our interactions with the staff--aside from the woman who initially greeted and checked us in--were warm and pleasant. When we booked, and in the reminder texts we received, our appointments were listed for 1:00 PM and 1:30 PM. The first couple arrived at 12:45 PM as instructed to begin their spa day. At that time, the front desk associate asked where the rest of our group was, and when my friend explained that our appointments were scheduled for 1:30 PM, she responded quite rudely, insisting that we were incorrect and that 1:30 PM was only the massage start time--which was confusing and did not make much sense based on the information we had received. Because of this, our friends called us to rush over so we wouldn't miss part of our spa day, and we arrived by 1:15 PM. When we checked in, the same front desk associate did not greet us at all. She came across as cold, rude, and extremely unwelcoming. Rather than acknowledging that the appointment reminders were confusing for all four of us, she seemed dismissive and uninterested in helping resolve the situation or offering even a simple apology. Before heading to our first soak, after we had changed into our robes (around 1:20 PM), I asked if I could order a glass of wine. Her response was, "You don't have enough time, but if you want one, it costs extra and I can get it for you." The tone felt very passive-aggressive and left me genuinely shocked. It was not the kind of customer service response I would expect in what is supposed to be a relaxing, welcoming spa environment, and it made me feel quite uncomfortable. The rest of the day was enjoyable, and the remaining staff were wonderful, but this initial interaction affected the overall experience for all four of us. We left feeling disappointed by how the situation was handled and felt it was important to share this feedback. Thank you. read more

Paola, was amazing! Booked a deep tissue massage for my neck pain, felt so much relief afterwards. She focused on my initial complaint, and the rest was also excellent. I will definitely be booking here again soon! read more

Thank you Laura for an incredible Swedish massage! I took my best friend here for a birthday massage and soak on Monday 11/3. My body feels so much better after a treatment with I have told everyone I work with about her - so figured I needed to tell Yelp too! I can't believe how much relief I have in my shoulder, neck and hip from her work. The indoor mineral springs are lovely and the reception staff was helpful and sweet. It really feels like a treat to visit this spot. There are a lot of nice adult beverages and special packages to help celebrate a special occasion. Thank you Laura I so hope I will be seeing you again soon! read more

A solid spot that is affordable and clean for a nice mineral hot springs soak. Reservations are highly recommended for the weekend and we were lucky to secure one 2 days before. Initially we booked an outdoor tub and but had to change it to the indoor tub since it rained that day. The staff was very flexible with accommodating that request. After checking in, we were given a very short tour of the place since it was our first time there. The facility have its own parking lot and the bathrooms were equipped with showers, lockers and even single use brushes, makeup removers, rubber bands for your needs. Complimentary fruits and lemon iced water were also provided for all the guests. The private indoor mineral hot springs soak was very affordable for a weekend rate. $28 per person for an hour. We were assigned to tub #8. Our private room was clean and the water temperature was perfect. The room had hooks for you to hang your towels and clothes, a dish to store your silver jewelry since the mineral hot springs can cause it to tarnish. There were also two chairs and a table for you to sit and take a break from the mineral soak if it gets too hot. When your hour is up, the staff will knock the door and wait for you to gather your stuff outside. Once you exit the room, the staff will clean it for the next guests. We both had a great time and our skin felt so smooth after the soak. If you visit on a weekday, the rate is even better, $32 for 2 people for an hour soak. read more

Charles is the guy to go to if you have pain in your body, or overworked muscles, my absolute favorite at river oaks!

This is an amazing retreat to relax and unwind. It features indoor and outdoor soaking tubs located outside near the beginning of the rolling Hills of Paso Robles and the beautiful vineyards. Truly a classic place; I have been here twice and have never been disappointed. The price is reasonable, and the experience is remarkable. read more

My husband and I went on New Year's Day 2025. Check in was smooth and we had the wine down package. The private soak was perfect, the mineral bath was perfect before our couples massage. We had Swedish massages, next time we will get the deep tissue to really work our muscles. Then we rinsed off and headed out to the semi private hot tubs overlooking the vineyard with our wine. Would like to have cheese and crackers with a little more wine for the hour. We really enjoyed this treat and had the best nights rest in a long time. Tip, bring your own slippers! read more

As a local to the area, River Oaks Hot Springs Spa is my go to spot for a nice relaxing evening with friends or family!! There are 5 private outdoor soaking tubs enclosed on three sides with unobstructed views of the neighboring vineyard. Highly recommend booking an outdoor tub for sunset - the views are just breathtaking! They also offer fully enclosed private soaking tubs, massages, facials and various packages such as a Wine Down Couples Package, which includes a private mineral tub, massage and outdoor vineyard tub with a wine tasting flight. I have yet to try a massage or facial here, but it is on my list. Unfortunately, you cannot book (or cancel) online so you have to do everything over the phone. Sometimes they get relatively busy so you won't be able to get ahold of anyone, and might have to call back a few times - still worth the wait in my opinion. I typically come here a few times a month and always make it a point to bring friends visiting from out of town. Highly recommend River Oaks! read more

We made an appointment for 8:30pm to try the hot spring tub and I am glad we made this part of our itinerary. I felt very relaxed after soaking in the hot mineral tub. If you're in Paso Robles, I would highly recommend this as a self care activity. read more

River Oaks Hot Springs Spa - Day Spas Near Me - Paso Robles, California

part of the itinerary for our bachelorette weekend getaway. 13 of us split into two groups for massages/treatment and a 3 hour in door hot tub. One group had their treatments at 1:30pm and another at 3pm. So we are a bunch of girls who knows the bride - we are not all besties. The massages were mostly couple massages as I guess they don't have enough space. It was strange being completely naked with a girl I just met this weekend. Massage itself was amazing. They were both quiet and soft walkers so it was very relaxing. The indoor hot tub was really nice and fun. The changing room is very tight. all the lockers are in one space. There are a lot of lockers but the space does not fit everyone. Three showers and toilet stalls. There is a area with sinks and mirrors. The gave everyone a key, robe and towel. I had to ask for slippers. read more

Would not recommend this place to anyone. It was probably the worst experience I've ever had in Paso Robles. We were so excited to try something new in Paso but let me count the ways how underwhelming and disappointing this experience $65 per person was. The apples were also bruised and one apple definitely had a worm. When I called to make the reservation I mentioned that one was allergic to wine and if there was an option for just a soak. Well.. when we checked in it was registered for 4 sip and soaks and since the wine was poured they couldn't do anything about it and it was past the 24 hr mark. How do I know that it was for 4 soak and sips and not 3 soak and sips and one soak.. cool cool. We also stood around for 5+ minutes waiting for someone to address us and guide us to the tub. Which-- eats our time. They were non interested in helping-- nor courteous. We were told to pick up our trays and walk out the doors to a rose bush to the spa. No one walked us.. it was just lack luster. As we are walking to our spa.. so excited to see the vines we were welcomed by an oak tree and another tub as our view. When the website promotes a view of the vines and this is what you're welcomed to... wow. So disappointing. Fine, we are here for the remaining minutes going to enjoy it.. and sip our wine. The wine list was subpar compared to other reviews on Yelp. With all the fabulous wine in Paso, the wine was disappointing. To make matters worse there was a hair in the red. Tasting was: Dusi: Pinot Grigio, LeVigne: Sauvignon Blanc, J&J: Rosè, Dusi: Rosè, J&J: Tempranillo. Be willing to rent a locker and towel even though you just paid $65 for an hour soak and sub par wine. The women's handicap shower was broken. The men's shower sprayed out of the tubing from the hand held shower and the shampoo and conditioner containers were missing buttons. None of the employees seemed to care about our experience and/or us as no one was at the front desk. So, never ever again will we come back or tell anyone to visit. read more

We had a wonderful experience with the Wine Down Couples Package ($350 plus tip for both guests) on a seemingly quiet Saturday afternoon here in August during our first Paso visit. It was nice having a private tub/area to soak for a bit, which really relaxed us for our massages. We then took a shower before heading to the outdoor soaking tub, where we enjoyed our wine tasting and views. The facilities were pretty clean, and they provided towels, showers, bathrooms, bathrobes, sandals, water, and friendly service. We tipped our massage therapists in cash, but didn't feel the need to tip anyone else. Highly recommend for a romantic experience or with friends! read more

We originally came to River Oaks and booked an indoor/patio hot tub. It was rather dark due to the overhanging roof and the water wasn't that warm, so I wasn't impressed. Then we booked an outdoor hot tub which was sunny and hot. I recommend the outdoor tubs on a nice day since you're next to vineyards and IMO provides a better experience. The staff is friendly and efficient and the facility is clean. We'll be back! read more

Got the Wine Down package. As Jody S. commented, the front desk ladies are not particularly friendly or service-oriented. There were several awkward moments of standing around waiting to be acknowledged and/or guided to the next step. Very disappointing first impression for a day spa. The initial soak was nice, and the Swedish massages were stellar. However, I do NOT recommend the post-soak/wine tasting. The presentation was really basic: you get a plastic tray with five cups of wine and a tiny pack of crackers. Then you're told to walk down a long path to the outdoor spa. The water was very cloudy (didn't think much of this), and a couple hours later, my body broke out in hives. Also, at checkout, you'll be asked to tip the tub fillers (Who??). I don't mind tipping the masseuses but for the tub filling tip, maybe bundle that into the cost of the package. read more

Nice and relaxing addition to any day in Paso. I did a mineral bath soak, got a massage, and left ready to relax into my vacation.

What a great experience! We chose an outdoor tub for a 1 hr soak (no upgrades/packages). The view was great and the tub is surrounded by wood all around so that you can't see in. Bathing suits are optional, which is nice, because I did not want to potentially ruin a suit with the mineral water. Would definitely go back again! It was very relaxing. The only downside was that the water wasn't as hot as I would've liked it to be. It was a step above warm, but not "hot"; this was probably limited by how cold it was outside. read more
