Buses depart from the bus terminal in Mendoza. The thermal baths open at 10 AM and we took a taxi to the terminal from Plaza Independencia which cost 43 ARS1. The next bus leaving towards Cacheuta was at 10.30 AM and a return ticket cost 84 ARS. We grabbed some breakfast at the station while waiting for the bus. Once the bus arrived, it left promptly and took about an hour to reach Cacheuta. From the bus stop, you walk down a road for about 5-10 minutes to get to the entrance. The entrance ticket costs 240 ARS for access to 3 levels of pools and they accept credit cards without additional fees. There’s a changing room with showers at the site and locker rentals cost 50 ARS which you can get from the shop. The first level has a couple of indoor pools with temperatures ranging between 28 and 43 degrees Celsius. One of the pools has hydro massaging bubbles which are nice to relax in. The second level is outdoors going down some steps. The water temperature here is also between 28 and 43 degrees Celsius and there was also a polar pool with cold water.
The great thing about this level was of the landscape views from the balcony like pools. There was also an indoor room with streams of hot water falling like a shower. The third level is going down some more steps. On this level, there are some more pools, a lazy river, 2 water slides, and a 10-meter water fountain. The water is much colder here and the level is aimed mainly for children. Overall, the water park is a great place to relax for a couple of hours enjoying the peaceful mountain view. Once we were done bathing in the pools, we got changed and left our swimwear to dry in the sun for a while. We then went for a walk around the area whilst we waited for the bus back to Mendoza. The bus stop was opposite where we were dropped off and the bus arrived around 3.45 PM.
