About the thermal bath
Hidden away in the Suan Phueng district of Ratchaburi province, this resort attracts visitors seeking an authentic geothermal experience off the beaten track in Thailand. The highlight is the naturally heated mineral water, drawn directly from a mountain spring and piped into both private in-room pools and communal outdoor bathing areas. The resort caters to both overnight stays and day trips, offering guests flexibility in planning their geothermal experience.
The atmosphere is more conducive to quiet relaxation than an entertainment-packed holiday. Visitors describe the place as a restorative retreat with fresh air and warm mineral water pools – ideal for those seeking an undisturbed break in nature. The facilities are functional, not luxurious; the natural thermal water itself is the main attraction. The surrounding landscape enhances the feeling of seclusion.

I haven't been there yet, but it looks nicer than other thermal baths.
Natural thermal water for relaxation. The resort offers thermal pools both in the rooms and outdoors. You can also take a day trip and use the thermal water in the public areas. The resort is in need of renovation.
The thermal baths are fine if you like hot water. The water is heated naturally. I drove up the mountain to the source. Blue pipes come straight out of the ground there and carry the water to the resort and the tubs. There are several tubs where you sit on the edge and dangle your shins in the water, and also swimming pools. I didn't see any deep tubs. Not all the water is hot; there's also cool groundwater, and I think that's used for the swimming pools.

Tips for visiting hotels and resorts
Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.
After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.
Location is more important than the stars
A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
