My wife and I stayed at Castle Hot Springs for 5 nights. This resort is the best we’ve ever stayed. My wife and I were talking about it tonight, our stay has redefined what “10” is for the 1 to 10 scale.||The staff, and this is everyone we met, was friendly and helpful. The service was excellent across the board. The dining staff especially was so sweet and nice to my wife and I. Very classy, very helpful, they really represent the resort well.||The activities we did, yoga, sound bathing, hiking, archery, axe throwing, was a lot of fun. We had full mornings and relaxing afternoons. The sound bath activity was really special, unique. A highlight of the trip for us.||The property is gorgeous and well maintained. There is a pool ringed by honeysuckle that attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. The landscaping is really well done. There are 3 hot-spring pools we tried. The upper pool is very relaxing but the water is hot, very much like a hot tub. There is a second pool that was hot but less so and covered. Perfect for once the sun dips behind the mountains. Our favorite pool during the day is cool but not cold. We would walk up there and float/swim til our fingers were pruned.||The food was the best of any all-inclusive we’ve ever had and it’s not even close. Breakfast and lunch range from good to great, but dinner is the star - a 5 course meal every night. Dinner starts with fresh baked bread, then a soup, salad, and a tiny bite that showcases a vegetable. There is a working farm on property so all the vegetables are fresh, I’m guessing picked that day. The freshness makes everything pop with flavor and texture. ||The entree is a pick between beef, fish, another protein, and a vegetarian option. My wife cannot eat gluten, and they were able to accommodate her dietary restriction. They also can do vegan meals, but for a vegan look into exactly what this means if you’re thinking about it - we didn’t eat vegan.||The last course is dessert, and every night was something bursting with flavor and so good. The dinners are so wonderful, they have something really special with their chef and farm.||We will be back, absolutely outstanding experience.

Absolutely amazing resort. Incredible food. Rooms were gorgeous. The entire staff were the most friendly and accommodating I’ve ever met. The massage was better than any I’ve had - at any 5 star resort. And the hot springs exceeded our expectations. You spend 15 minutes in the hot spring, followed by a cold plunge - you feel 10 years younger.

I left this amazing resort refreshed and recharged. I cannot wait to return.

Castle hot springs is a true destination adventure. We found this place when the husband requested a long weekend within the US that involved both pampering and activities, and as we love hot springs and via ferrata this seemed like a good choice.||Well, the weekend we went, the weather predictions were unseasonably hot, in the 105-110 range. Expecting to hunker down inside, we went anyway. What a wonderful time we had! ||The drive is about 1.5 hrs from PHX, and yes the last 7 miles are on a graded dirt road. Our standard rental didn't have any issues and the car isn't used at all while you arrive. We traveled as two couples, and chose the cottage for the extra gathering space. It's decorated similarly to the lodge-comfortable and updated yet in an old-school cabin vibe that some may not prefer. There are two flights of stairs up to it as well. Otherwise, its well equipped with AC, three bedrooms, two baths, a living room and small dining table and a kitchenette stocked with nespresso, teas, wine, sparkling and still water, topo chico and probiotic "sodas". Wifi will stream football if needed 😉 ||Service- crazy good, and not just in your standard FS manner. The staff seem genuinely happy to be there working. Every request (and we had many) are met with a smiling "OF COURSE!" which in in itself is refreshing. Golf cart pickups to and from the spring, bar service to the rooms, dietary modifications, requests for electrolytes or ice bags or history lessons... The food service was also excellent, with an amazing farm to fork emphasis and many things made in house or locally. Dietary requests were easily handled, and the drinks are expertly crafted with the freshest ingredients. If you get a chance to take the agave spirits or mixology class from Gavin you will not regret it -he's not only educational and entertaining but loves his craft and shares his enthusiasm easily.||We went for the activities, as I've done via ferrata in italy and wanted to do it again. Our first morning was an easy canyon crater hike with an intro to basic techniques, and the second morning we did the castle peak via ferrata. Lead by Carlie and Ryan, both were fun and full of facts, no-pressure instruction, spectaular views, and thrills. We are in our 60's with moderate fitness and had no issues with the level of participation. The only activity I wouldn't recommend is the E-bike tour, which was basically 10 miles of washboard forest service road to a viewpoint, and you can easily do this for no charge yourself as the e-bikes and maps are complimentary. We had thought the tour was a single track over mountain terrain and were disappointed to be on rough, dusty and hot dirt roads.||The springs themselves were awesome! The top spring starts at 107, with subsequent ones at 102-3, 90, 87, and the pool which we never entered. There's a plunge pool at 44 next to the hottest pools, and that is lovely to immerse in. Paddle yoga is done in the 87 pool and a fun challenge. Massage and regular yoga are also offered, and we found those underwhelming.||The property as a whole is immaculate, and needs are anticipated and met in the most seamless way. Thank you, CHS staff, for an excellent stay.

This place is a magical paradise! I normally go to CanyonRanch in Tucson, Arizona, but they were under renovation right now and my travelagent told me about this place. I figured I’d give it a try… Wow! I had no idea that this place existed in the middle of nowhere, the 7 mile road to get there was pretty bumpy but when you arrive in that gate and see the row of palm trees You realize it was worth the travel. All of the staff, the masseuse’s, and the guides were the friendliest sweetest people! Everywhere you look was magical, the mountains, the Hot Springs, the Casitas, the scenery was exquisite! I highly recommend getting a massage with Cassandra, a Watsu water massage with Juliet, and another massage with Ryan ( she was there teacher). I wish I could bring them home with me! All the staff at the restaurant and the front desk and the bar were amazing. The guys at the bar filled my ice packs up every day for my bad back… And they never complained! The Hot Springs were fabulous, I really believe it helped heal my back a little… I had a great experience and highly recommend. The landscape is just amazing and the food was the freshest I’ve ever had right from their farm! I was sad to leave, but glad I had that experience❤️

From the time I entered the gate until I drove away from the property, I felt so taken care of at Castle Hot Springs. The service is like no other resort I've visited, and the staff is wonderful. Ross was an amazing guide—I did two hikes with him. The sound bath was such a great and restful experience. KaCe gave me great instruction for paddleboard yoga (I was scared I would fall off, but no one did). The food is NEXT LEVEL - I'm a foodie dietitian, and it blew my mind. The hot springs are beautiful and crystal clear - Carly taught me all about the history in the connecting with water class. Emma (night security) drove me to my cabin a couple of times, and I enjoyed chatting with her about the animals around the resort. I felt so safe as a solo traveler. Craig (grounds, I think) was super friendly, and we chatted about the property while I waited for my hike to start one morning. The beds were comfortable and soft, just like the robes. The amenities in the room were - again, next level. It was such a great experience. I only wish I could have stayed longer. Next time, I will.

The experience was not worth it. In terms of the lack of flexibility with check in / check out dates & minimum night stays. It was nice but unfortunately underwhelming after a night or 2. Seems they care more about their comfort vs how there customers feel about length of stays & dates of arrival. No consideration or flexibility at all. It felt like I was being held stuck by the 3rd night of stay. I would not return or support castle hot springs again because of the forced dates of arrival & departure or 3 night minimum stays.

The most amazing accommodations, friendly service, beautiful hot springs, and best food I’ve ever eaten. Unforgettable experience!||I’ve never encountered a more friendly and genuinely helpful staff. ||Plus, guests are limited so I felt like we were at our own private resort at times.
