The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"Staff was welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was amazing—it says Continental Breakfast but it’s a full blown buffet with great food and fresh juices. Ceviche for dinner was the best I’ve had. Only negatives were the jets in the shower in the room didn’t work well and some of the hot tubs were either hotter or colder than what was listed. Service in 5th floor restaurant was not great but food was pretty good. Absolutely recommend staying here!"
