Colorado Hot Springs Resort Announces Major Expansion in 2025

PAGOSA SPRINGS, Colorado — The Springs Resort, an award-winning geothermal wellness destination in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, recently debuted a transformative expansion with new accommodations, new hot springs pools and an expanded spa.

Home to the world’s deepest geothermal spring, known as “The Mother Spring,” The Springs Resort is deepening its commitment to its signature approach to geothermal relaxation and well-being. This included relocating its spa and doubling the number of terraced geothermal mineral soaking pools along the San Juan River at the base of the Rocky Mountains. The extensive renovation also introduced 78 additional guest rooms, a new thermal spa, a Panoramic Sauna with halotherapy and new, curated wellness amenities. Additionally, the property features a new restaurant, Wild Finch, which is set to open this month, and modern, versatile event spaces for meetings and special occasions. Located downriver from the original property, the expansion will continue to offer opportunities for relaxation, renewal and exploration.

“This is more than an expansion — it’s a defining moment for hot springs wellness in the U.S.,” said Sharon Holtz, vice president of wellness. “At a time when travelers are seeking deeper, more transformative well-being experiences, we are setting a new standard.”

New Accommodations

From spacious King Rooms to two-bedroom suites with full kitchens, each room offers scenic views of the pools and are designed with comfort and sustainability in mind. Each room boasts nine-foot windows to provide views of the San Juan River and the surrounding landscape. Additionally, all rooms offer 24-hour access to the geothermal soaking pools, including access to the adult-only Relaxation Terrace, daily wellness activities, robes and towels with unlimited exchanges, and the Sleep Ritual Tray. Guests also have soaking access before check-in and up to 6 p.m. on the day of check-out.

New Culinary Destination

A major highlight of the expansion is Wild Finch, the resort’s new signature restaurant that will open this month. Inspired by the American Goldfinch, the restaurant will feature a wellness-focused menu crafted with locally sourced ingredients and seasonally inspired dishes. Overlooking the event lawn and The Mother Spring, Wild Finch will provide guests with an elegant yet inviting dining experience.

The expansion also introduces 1881 Poolside Provisions, a new poolside dining experience offering a menu of shareable plates, a curated cocktail menu and a rotating selection of beer and wine. This concept integrates a beverage/canteen experience, providing a casual dining option for guests.

Transforming Spa Experiences and Signature Treatments

The expanded Springs Resort also unveiled a two-level, geothermal-inspired spa, where natural elements and expert therapeutic techniques come together to create an unparalleled wellness experience. The spa now features twice as many treatment rooms — 12 total — along with a dedicated couples’ suite featuring its own private geothermal pool.

The Social Wellness level features a Panoramic Sauna with halotherapy (salt therapy) to promote respiratory health. Guests can also enjoy guided Aromatherapy Sauna experiences, and the Thermal Studio offers a guided Mother’s Mud experience. On the meditative Spa Treatment level, guests can choose from outdoor geothermal pools or indoor treatment pools featuring waterfall spouts and relaxing jets. Treatments at The Springs Resort include massages, body wraps, facials, hydrotherapy, aromatherapy, reflexology and more.

A Wellness Haven

Every pool in the expansion has been carefully crafted to provide a distinct wellness experience, whether through the soothing sounds of flowing water, breathtaking views of the San Juan Mountains, reflexology pathways or the therapeutic benefits of immersive contrast bathing. More than just places to soak, these pools are an extension of The Springs Resort’s commitment to water-based well-being. Included in the expansion are pools and water features such as a dedicated wellness activity pool that offers a variety of guided water-based wellness experiences; The Grotto, a secluded geothermal pool for ultimate relaxation; Contrast Falls, where hot geothermal water meets river-fed cold water; and Cold Rush, a pool with water from the San Juan River. The expansion also introduces a dedicated movement and yoga studio for guided fitness sessions, alongside outdoor activity areas designed for wellness experiences.
