| - Booked a Spa day here with two of my friends when I was in town. We were there all day and loved our time there. The resort is beautiful. The spa itself was actually a bit less than what we were expecting. We thought there would be much more landscaping and much more to it than the waiting room, locker room/showers, and service rooms. Since it was two of our birthdays, they gave us a little gift of samples which was thoughtful!
I had four services that day: a swedish massage, vita d facial, resurfacing pedicure, and blowout. In between the services, we lounged at the pool/in the hottub, had some lunch/drinks out there, and took advantage of the steam room. The waiting area was nice - comfortable chairs, some magazines and papers to read, coffee/tea/water, and nuts/dried fruits. I thoroughly enjoyed my swedish massage. I wish I could recall the masseuse's name, but she was great! My facial was okay - I didn't think the girl doing my facial was great and she waited until the end of my massage to tell me that the treatment would require me to stay out of the sun (on my vacation to arizona, mind you) for 72 hours. That was pretty irritating since I would have changed my facial had she told me at the beginning. One of my friends signed up for the same facial and her person gave her a heads up beforehand so they were able to change it to a more accommodating facial. The pedicure and blowout were both great.
The infinity pool was great. We thought it was heated from what we were told, but it was a chillier day with less sun and the pool was pretty cold. The pool staff was great - they set up chairs and towels for us as soon as they saw us. There was only one girl taking drink and food orders for the entire pool so later in the day, service got to be very slow- but she was working as fast as she could - they should probably staff an additional person during busier hours.
The Spa itself is definitely on the pricier side. You'll be paying $175+ for a massage or facial. I've paid less elsewhere and had more grounds of the spa to enjoy. However, I did have a wonderful experience overall here and since we went for a special occasion, I thought it was worth the money.
