An extra day off never hurts anyone, and neither does a dip in the pool to refresh our desire to continue with our work, academic, or family commitments. March gives us a long weekend that you won’t want to miss, so here are four recommendations for spas near Mexico City.
Get organized with your family, partner, or friends because not only will you immerse yourself in fun, but you’ll also be surrounded by nature and enjoy a well-deserved moment of relaxation.
Forget the endless traffic and chaos of the city; this resort in the Mezquital Valley is the ultimate plan for making the most of the upcoming long weekend. Here, you don’t just swim: you jump off slides, relax in hot springs that never close, and best of all, you don’t have to leave your furry friend behind because the place is pet-friendly.
If you feel like releasing some adrenaline after a tough week, the Gran Cañón de roca volcánica awaits you with rappelling, zip lines, and boat trips on the Tula River. It’s the perfect plan to disconnect without breaking the bank, whether you prefer the comfort of a cabin for 12 people or the total adventure of camping under the stars for only $70.
If you’re going for total relaxation, remember to call the contact numbers in advance to secure your place in the hotel or cabins. Accommodation reservations: 720 173 8104 (hotel) and 771 777 0090 (cabins).
Swap the honking of car horns for the sound of springs in this natural water park that is literally an oasis of disconnection. The main attraction is its bubbling spring that continuously supplies crystal-clear thermal water to the pools and waterfalls. It’s the ultimate plan for the long weekend if you’re looking to escape the noise, but take note: here, the disconnection is real, as there is no cell phone or internet signal, so get your cash ready because they only accept cash.
The resort allows you to bring your own food and has barbecue grills for a complete get-together, although food is also available for purchase. If one day isn’t enough to recharge your batteries, you can stay in their bungalows, rustic cabins, or camping area. Just keep in mind that this plan is for humans only, as pets are not allowed.
Can you hear that noise? It’s your back begging for mercy, and this spa in Hidalgo has the cure. Forget pretentious spas; here, the real luxury is stepping into a natural jacuzzi inside an intimate cave so that the thermal water can reboot your life. It’s the perfect plan for this long weekend: you can slide down the slides like you’re 10 years old or simply float in the warm waters while you decide whether you want a Swedish massage or one with suction cups to relieve all your stress.
If relaxation leaves you wanting to never see city traffic again, you can stay in their cabins or set up camp under the stars for a nominal fee. Just leave Firulais in charge and don’t try to bring glass bottles, because in Tlaco, the only thing that breaks is routine. Pack your sunscreen and head to this Hidalgo oasis!
Admission costs $165, while access to the natural hot tubs is $150.
Is your body crying out for a warm 36°C bath? Forget your bathtub at home and head to these natural caves in Hidalgo, where thermal water flows between rocks to give you the “reset” you so deserve. It’s the winning plan for this March long weekend: you can play explorer in its cavernous pools or simply float in its outdoor pools while the sun does its thing.
Here, the plan is to have a big get-together: you can bring your own grill and drinks to feel like the king of the barbecue, or let yourself be pampered with the local food if you’re feeling lazy on vacation. If you don’t want the magic to end at 6:00 p.m., stay in a cabin or camp under the stars. Just leave your speakers and your dog at home, because the only sounds here are the water and absolute peace.
