Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Parknasilla Resort & Spa enjoys a fabulous location with spectacular grounds and extensive walking trails to explore. Guests consistently praise the spacious and comfortable bedrooms, with some rooms offering great views of the mountains. The infinity pool overlooking the ocean and the outdoor saltwater pool are particularly well-loved, as is the vitality spa with sauna facilities, though a few guests have noted that the new part of the building isn't quite up to the standard of the original. Dining in the Pygmalion restaurant also comes highly recommended.
