At Mălinului Resort, the hot tub comes with the A-frame cabins: 6 cabins for 2-4 people in Bughea de Sus, 5 km from Câmpulung Muscel. The hot tub costs 385 lei per day and is paid for separately, on site. The Kubik cabins don't have hot tub access.
What a ciubăr is
A ciubăr is a large, round tub set outdoors and filled with hot water. You sit in it up to your shoulders, in the open air, usually in the evening or in winter, when the water is hot and the air is cold. It fits a small group, so it's where an evening in the mountains ends with stories.
The hot tub at Mălinului
The hot tub is for guests in the A-frame cabins. It costs 385 lei per day and isn't included in the accommodation price: you pay for it on site. The house rule is that any request about your stay is made at check-in, because after that the host isn't nearby. If you want the hot tub, say so then.

The resort also has the sauna and the outdoor pool. The pool is open from May to August and isn't heated, so in winter you have the hot tub and the sauna.
Groups who rent the whole resort, for team building or over the holidays, get the hot tub included for their whole stay.
What a weekend with the hot tub costs
The hot tub is paid per day. If you want it on both evenings of a two-night weekend, add 770 lei to your stay. Four people in an A-frame split 385 lei, which is under 100 lei per person per day.
| Days with the hot tub | Hot tub cost | Per person, for 4 people |
|---|---|---|
| 1 day | 385 lei | 96 lei |
| 2 days | 770 lei | 193 lei |
| 3 days | 1.155 lei | 289 lei |
The accommodation is paid separately. You can see the price per night for your dates in the booking calendar.
What to know before you go
- Towels are in the cabin. Bring swimwear and flip-flops from home for the walk to the hot tub.
- In winter, a bathrobe makes all the difference on the way from the cabin to the hot tub.
- Children go in only with an adult beside them.
- After midnight it's quiet outside, at the hot tub too: no music on speakers.
- Don't leave food outside overnight. The forest is close by and food attracts animals.
