Great spa hotel. Stayed for one night for wine tasting and hot springs. Location is excellent with a market across the street with restaurants nearby and on property. Access to 3 mineral springs pools (85, 95 and 105 degrees) was included with hotel room. Paid extra for a mud bath spa experience which was pricey but great to do at least once. Glad we planned this the day after wine tasting as the mud bath is very hot. Other than the mineral springs, the highlight was the staff who went above and beyond for any need or request. Tip: bring bug spray if dining in their restaurant as seating is outdoors.

This is our second visit to Dr. Wilkinson's, and it was just as fantastic as the first time. It has become an annual destination for our family, and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering a stay. Just go—you won't be disappointed! I give them a 10 out of 10!

First time visiting dr Wilkinson and had a pretty good experience. The mineral pools were nice but I was kind of expecting something different, something more. The room was great, but the bed not so much. It was really hard and woke up stiff both day. Found it hard to sleep soundly through the night. Kind of defeated the purpose of a relaxing stay when you can’t sleep and wake up in pain. But it would fade away once in the waters. Food was great, however there’s not much options around if you want something different. Overall it was a good experience, would consider coming back. Maybe.

Great hotel, loud guests.

This hotel is great and the facilities are dialed in curated to the max. Yet the clientele can be an issue. I experienced screaming children at the pool, and other issues. You will be in very close quarters with others that might not be very friendly.
