Ixtapan de la Sal is known for its thermal baths. When planning your trip, it is worth looking beyond this shared feature at the specific facilities: Balneario Municipal El Bañito and Parque Acuático Ixtapan de la Sal offer different features. The Roman Baths, cultural attractions and Semana Santa also broaden the options. This lets you decide whether bathing facilities should be the main focus or whether you would like to include additional visits and a seasonal event.

The complex includes a pool for mud treatments, hydrotherapy tubs, a children's pool and slides.

Parque Acuático Ixtapan de la Sal has swimming pools, large slides, thermal water and green spaces for relaxing; there are also mechanical rides. Both facilities combine thermal water with slides. El Bañito also has pools for mud treatments and hydrotherapy tubs, while the park also features green spaces and mechanical rides.
