On-site VIP hot spring rooms are $850 each. The KLOOK voucher includes the price of the tofu pudding, so if you don't want the tofu pudding, you can actually buy it on-site! However, the tofu pudding is super delicious; it's not just regular syrup, it's soy milk! Yes, soy milk! They use soy milk as the base—it's really good! So next time, I'll still happily buy the voucher. ^_^

The public men's nude bath at Jiaoxi Hot Spring Park's "Forest Bath" has a quaint and antique ambiance, surrounded by greenery, truly giving you the pleasant feeling of bathing in a forest! The best part is that there are multiple pools with different temperatures to alternate between: the high-temperature pool is incredibly satisfying to soak in, forcing sweat and relieving fatigue, and there are also several unique pools to alternate between, plus a cold pool to experience the exhilarating feeling of alternating between hot and cold. The overall atmosphere is peaceful and comfortable, making for an excellent relaxing experience!

When I initially booked, I chose the Mountain Mist room type, but when I called to make a reservation, it was fully booked. The customer service representative asked if I'd like to upgrade to a room with two pools for an additional $500! This room type did not disappoint! Since it was a weekend, I chose to avoid the crowds and stayed at Daisui! The environment is superb and very quiet! It's also very clean! Overall, the three-hour stay was great! I'll definitely come back if I have the chance! I highly recommend it to everyone.

The service is very high-end, and there are many facilities available. One adult and one child can enter the hot spring pool and playground once each on weekdays. If there is an additional child, it's an extra +$200 for the hot spring and +$200 for the playground. Parking is for 8 hours. It's quite a fun parent-child hotel.

The front desk will ask if you want a pebble bathtub or a white bathtub. The pebble bathtub does not have a toilet, so you need to use the restroom in the restaurant. The space inside the bathhouse is quite large and is semi-open-air, with a space between the ceiling and the door that allows for great air circulation. Two people can put their clothes and luggage and take a shower without feeling crowded. The shower water is weak, but the bathtub water is super strong, and it takes about 10 minutes to fill up enough to soak your whole body. The bathtub is also large, and I can lie down completely in the tub at 160 cm (5'3"). The spring water is very hot, and after soaking, your skin immediately feels smooth. It's real spring water! The shampoo and shower gel in the bathhouse are from Shang Shan Cai Yao, and there are also large bath towels, a hair dryer, and a LCD TV where you can watch YouTube. However, the tub is a bit old, and the floor and corners of the bathhouse are yellowish and old, and you can see traces of aging such as the sealant peeling off. Overall, it's not dirty, but the surface of the tub is slippery and not very clean. The lobby and courtyard landscaping are quite beautiful, and at least when you walk in, it feels high-end, and the service staff is also very nice. If you use it before 4 PM, you can enjoy the afternoon tea buffet in the restaurant, which is just the simple drinks and snacks you would see at a hotel breakfast.

Overall a must visit onsen. Outdoor suitable for family. Lot of soup choice available. Owner takes the initiative to keep the place in good condition. Walking distance from TRA Do note their upcoming closure for a month long maintance.

The room-style hot spring bath is really great! The room is large and very comfortable. Since disposable products are not provided now, I forgot to bring a shower cap. When I went to the front desk to buy one, the staff was very kind and provided it for free. This experience was really good, and my husband even said we could come again next time.

During this visit, the indoor spa pool happened to be under maintenance, so I didn't get to enjoy it. However, the outdoor spa pool was indeed comfortable, although some of the equipment was out of order, and the water barely sprayed out. Also, the water flow in the waterslide was very weak, making the speed of sliding down ridiculously slow. I suspect a grandma crossing the crosswalk would be faster. But the relaxation facilities, like the hot spring pools and hot stone beds, were very warm, and soaking in them made me sleepy.

The water isn't hot ^^ so the kids play even better. lol The highest it got was 39 degrees, and that was lukewarm too. Since there are several types of baths, it would be great if you could make just two hot baths that are 40 degrees or higher. We had a great time! ^^
