To maximize all guest experiences, Castle Hot Springs has set arrival/departure days of Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday.

Castle Hot Springs
Historic Arizona retreat with natural thermal pools, reimagined for a new era
Endless blue skies stretch out above. Ahead of you the ochre and sepia-hued slopes of the Bradshaw Mountains grow larger and larger. The closer you get to Castle Hot Springs Resort, the further behind the day-to-day world feels. As you arrive, you can almost hear the thermal springs bubbling up all around this boutique retreat – creating the sense of a natural, luxury oasis amid the sun-soaked desert.
Castle Hot Springs has been many years in the making. The carefully renovated Lodge and newly-created Spring Bungalows and SkyView Cabins are just the latest chapter in a long story. From Native tribes to American high society and recuperating World War II soldiers, the thermal springs have long attracted people seeking rest and healing. Today, Castle Hot Springs fuses its early-20th-century glamour with a pared-back, off-grid ethos that makes it the ideal contemporary hideaway.

Sink into your hot tub, dip into the main pool, or go straight to the source at the canyon swimming holes. After recharging, explore the mountains on foot, horseback or by ATV, then return for garden-fresh meals prepared with locally-grown ingredients. Then end each day with the ultimate all-star show: a mesmerising night sky.

Mineral-rich springs dictate the pace at this holistic desert-edge retreat
The Sonoran Desert is a wonderfully soulful location whose calming qualities are best appreciated while soaking in this historic resort’s healing pools fed by a natural thermal spring creek. And while contrast therapy may be the 21st-century’s latest wellness craze, people have been quietly practising it at this desert oasis since the 1890s by wallowing in the warm waters, then dunking in the icy depths. Breathe, relax, repeat and feel your cares, aches and pains start to melt away.
There are 1,100 acres of hiking and biking for restorative exercise in nature, daily yoga and mindful activities such as painting and gardening that also connect you to this pristine pocket of nature, as well as the white-knuckle option of tackling Arizona’s first via ferrata. Reward those tired limbs with an excellent massage or a Watsu treatment, a water-based stretching session, if you can’t get enough of this H2O. A tour of the onsite farm is worthwhile too, to join the dots between what happens in the field and ends up on your fork, and although digital detox is not enforced, the WiFi password, RUsureUwant2, leaves you in little doubt what the team would prefer. By the end of a stay, you’ll feel refreshed and raring to hike up Salvation Peak one last time.
