Relaxing Poolside Retreat

“I spent a good day lounging by the pools at Luna Volcan. The pools were beautifully maintained and perfectly situated to offer stunning views of Banos. I appreciated the variety of temperatures, from slightly heated to quite hot, making it an ideal spot for relaxation after a long hike. The ambiance was tranquil, and I often found myself enjoying the space with hardly anyone around.” view full review

Delicious Dining Options

“The restaurant at Luna Volcan offered a diverse menu that was included with my stay. While the meals were not necessarily gourmet, they were consistently good, with plenty of options to satisfy different tastes. I particularly enjoyed the breakfast buffet, which had a variety of items to kick-start my day. The café also had great views and a fantastic atmosphere, perfect for a light snack or afternoon coffee.” view full review

Comfortable Room Amenities

“I was thoroughly impressed with the room features at Luna Volcan. My suite had large floor-to-ceiling windows that provided amazing views, allowing me to enjoy the scenery right from my bed. The private jacuzzi was a highlight of my stay, equipped with bubble bath and toiletries, making it a perfect way to unwind after a busy day exploring.” view full review

Stylish Bathroom Setup

“The bathroom in my suite was well designed, with modern fixtures and plenty of hot water for showers. I loved the heated floors, which added a cozy touch, especially in the cooler evenings. While the design allowed for a sleek look, I did note that the shower setup was such that the entire space got a bit wet, which was a minor inconvenience but did not detract from my overall enjoyment.” view full review

Luna Runtun offers an enchanting experience with stunning views and cozy rooms, but it falls short in service and dining quality for the price. The heated floors in the rooms are a plus, but expect some shortcomings in the dining and bathing amenities. The overall stay is enjoyable, but adjustments in service expectations are essential.

I had a lovely getaway at this hotel just outside Baños, surrounded by beautiful gardens and with great views of the city. The pools were enjoyable, and the restaurant offered excellent food and service. However, I had a frustrating experience trying to access the thermal baths, as I felt I was denied when there was little to no crowd. The staff's handling of this situation and their use of my personal information was concerning.
