We had such a relaxing time at Dr. Wilkinson’s. Whatever issues we did have, Rocchi and Jose were very quick to address and were consistently friendly and accommodating throughout our entire 3 night stay. Service at the spa was also top notch - Trina is incredibly experienced and really took care of us.

We loved our stay at Dr. Wilkenson’s. The hotel had retro charm with comfortable updated rooms & amenities. Staff was very friendly. Everything was clean. Pools were sparkling. Onsite restaurant, The House of Better, was good & convenient. I indulged in a mud bath & massage and both were wonderful. We can’t wait to visit again.

Excellent place to stay. Everything was great. The only two TINNNNY things I wish were better were the food at their little restaurant and the water pressure in the room shower. Besides that, place and staff are exceptional and I highly recommend staying here!
