Before that I could hear the people playing pool and music, but that was no problem. It was off the dining area and was happy to see that people respected the 10 pm quiet time until the morning. I stayed in the smaller of the 2 rooms that are in the main hotel. It feels like you go back in time, where people aren't checking their devices, people play music, play pool and enjoy the waters and the scenery. I've been wanting to come here for a long time, and decided to go in order to take Sarana's yoga retreat weekend. If you've got money to burn, go - otherwise, think about it carefully. Eeks!Ĭooking is difficult - though the kitchen (shared by all) is a nice one, I felt like I was staying in a hostel. Also, WHY are there SHARPS (needle disposal) containers in the rooms? Perhaps because many people who are sick go for the 'healing waters' - I'm thinking drug use in the rooms. I found the waters to be smelly, my anxiety levels heightened while there (despite the digital detox I was looking forward to) and it was all around a bad memory I would soon like to forget. The vibe is difficult to pick up on many visitors are friendly - others, much too friendly (like, leave me alone I wanted to chill out, be quiet or visit with my partner, not the chatty single 60 year old woman, solo and naked who constantly appeared when we went in the pool). ![]() Overpriced accommodations ($300+ per night) for a bed in 1/2 of a cabin, 1/2 bath with NO hot water, no towels - we went in the middle of summer and the heat was unbearable. My last straw was the showers ran out of hot water and the tubs were not hot the next morning. The grounds were clean to be fair but in much need of maintenance. Maintenance has been neglected as well Every stick of wood I saw needs oiling (hand railing unusable, decks splintery and fencing crumbling). Maybe because of the drought but they were concentrated and especially green, not full of life force as they once were. No electric plugs no hot water and no towels or tea pot and difficult to get to with my bum knee) yet they are quite expensive. The new bungalows ( they call them cabins) look like FEMA housing. After a scolding she agreed to wave the additional fees but “ will make a note on your profile that you have been warned “. ![]() First of all the front desk staff lectured us for showing up early, like we did it on purpose. This was my first visit since the fire and I’m sorry to say I won’t be going back. I’ve been going to Wilber off and on for forty years. Unique, emerald nature green, and the calming waters are not to be idoled.īut just a beautiful unique starter for self-evaluation.Ī Starting ground for personal exploration and growth I can't wait for the Chefs to come back, and can't wait for people toĪt this oasis you'll find smart people, humble people, and more importantly DIFFERENT people. I applaud the challenge of silense, the challenge of a NEW hike! More importantly it's fun and exhilarting being out Get away from the routine, the business, the busyness of life, a break from the family. Lockdown and Post Lockdown You and I all need to get away. I for one have an insatiable hunger for knowledge, relationships, and to seek out failure to make a better version of myself each day. Covid has forever changed the way we as humans carry ourselves ![]()
