Termas de Cacheuta Hot Springs: Spa Day with Thermal Pools in Mendoza

Soak in mineral-rich thermal pools and Argentina's only cave-style sauna

Termas de Cacheuta is a full-day spa activity near Mendoza where you soak in natural hot springs at varying temperatures, use a grotto-style sauna (the only one in Argentina), and enjoy Scottish and Finnish-style showers in an open-air solarium. A buffet lunch with vegetarian options is included, and hotel pickup and return within Mendoza are part of the booking. The day lasts around nine hours and suits adults seeking wellness and relaxation in a mountain setting.

The experience

Termas de Cacheuta sits between the Mendoza River and the Andes foothills, and the day centers on using the resort's thermal circuit at your own pace. You move between pools at different temperatures, each fed by natural hot springs. The mineral-rich water and mud are meant to help detoxify your skin and leave it feeling renewed. The grotto-style sauna (the only one of its kind in Argentina) is the standout: a cave-like chamber where the heat and minerals work together. After the sauna, Scottish and Finnish-style showers in the natural solarium rinse you off in the open air.

Massages are available on-site but cost extra and are booked separately. The buffet lunch arrives mid-day and includes vegetarian options alongside local dishes. You eat surrounded by the landscape rather than in a separate dining room. Transfers pick you up from your Mendoza hotel and drop you back within the city limits, so the only logistics you handle are showing up at the meeting point.

Is this one for you?This is a self-guided spa day, not a tour with a guide leading you through stops, so you move between pools and facilities at your own pace and spend as long as you want in each one. It suits anyone seeking a full day of thermal relaxation without a structured itinerary, though the nine-hour commitment means it takes most of your day in Mendoza.

Top questions

What are the thermal pools like at Termas de Cacheuta?

Is the grotto-style sauna really the only one in Argentina?

Yes, Termas de Cacheuta's grotto-style sauna is Argentina's only one. It's a cave-like chamber where the natural heat and minerals combine, and it's a key part of what makes this spa distinct from others in the region.

What's included in the buffet lunch?

The lunch is a buffet with local flavors and vegetarian options. You eat on-site with views of the surrounding landscape, and it's included in the day's price.

Do I need to arrange my own transport to Termas de Cacheuta?

No. Hotel pickup and return within Mendoza's urban area are included, so you don't need to arrange a separate transfer or drive yourself.
