Worth knowing this reads as an adult spa day rather than a family outing. Recent reviewers describe heavy crowding in the plunge pools, loud music and intoxicated guests, closer to a pool party than a quiet soak. Reports on cleanliness and service are mixed. It is expensive either way.
A historic day spa with mineral pools and the famous red-clay "Club Mud," geared to teens and grown-ups. People have soaked in its naturally warm mineral springs since the 1800s, and Club Mud's California red clay — trucked in fresh daily from a mine a few miles away — has been a signature treatment for more than a century. The property spans about a dozen acres of gardens and pools in Temescal Valley.

This place used to be a true gem in the early 2000s, but sadly it’s become a low-budget imitation of a Vegas pool party. We spent over $600 for what was supposed to be a relaxing spa day that included a couples massage. Instead, the massage felt rushed and impersonal because they had clearly overbooked the entire day. The biggest disappointment was the overcrowding. There were easily 40 people packed into the hot and cold plunge pools alone, making it impossible to enjoy the amenities the way a spa experience should be enjoyed. Every area felt congested, noisy, and chaotic. The atmosphere has completely changed. Instead of a peaceful, upscale retreat, it felt like a day club with loud music, people shaking their asses, and guests who were obviously over-served and intoxicated. The staff seemed more interested in creating a party scene than maintaining the relaxing environment this place was once known for. This is no longer the exclusive, beautiful spa it used to be. It’s become an overcrowded, overbooked venue trying to recreate a Vegas pool party, except you’re paying luxury spa prices for an experience that feels anything but luxurious. Save your hard-earned money. There are far better spas that still prioritize relaxation, quality service, and the guest experience over packing in as many people as possible.

Went for my birthday it was so relaxing. My skin feels so soft. And my muscles are relaxed. Enjoyed the plunge cold and hot. The mud the saline pool and the mineral bath was great, it was hot. The pools were a nice temperature. The food could be better for the cost of it. Shareable dishes were too small to share.
