Deep Blue Hotel & Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"The accommodation is beautiful, clean and spacious. The hot springs are amazing especially the early morning or evening sessions . The salt room is very relaxing, as is the sauna and geothermal hot pool. I was very disappointed with the spa treatment, worst massage I've ever had. Maybe look elsewhere for treatments."
