Hot Springs
Hot springs really depend on what you are looking for and how much you want to spend. Hot Springs are the only activity that do not need to be booked in advance and can be paid upon entrance, except for The Springs and Tabacon which must be booked one day in advance.
Los Laureles is a local and personal favourite with its three large cold pools, several smaller hot pools, waterslides, covered picnic tables and a snack shack. You can bring your own food and drinks, although beverages are not allowed in the pools. Bring a small padlock to secure your belongings in the lockers provided above the picnic tables. We recommend going during the week as weekends tend to be very crowded. Open from 9 am to 9 pm.
Day pass only: Adult $12, Child $8, pay directly at entrance

Free Hot Springs We do not recommend the free hot springs because there is a lot of petty theft around that area. If you do decide to use these hot springs, only take essential items and keep a close eye on your belongings.
