10/10 Exceptional

Great stay. Very relaxing getaway.
Ellyn, 1-night trip

Fun, relaxing hotel for weekend trip with friends

My friends and I really enjoyed our stay at Dr. Wilkinson's! The hotel is cute, mid-century millennial style, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The pools were a highlight with three different pools are different temperatures. There were plenty of lounge chairs around the pool and you can order food and drinks from the restaurant to the pool area. They also have cruiser bikes that you can borrow for free and there's a trail right by the hotel. Recommend staying here!

Another great stay at Dr. Wilkinson’s. Great food at the restaurant and the staff, from the GM Jose, to Edgar at the front desk, and Shawn (the man who keeps the place physically running) are incredible.

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.
