| - Las Vegas is the land of spa day passes, a great bargain for spa lovers on a budget, such as yours truly. There is a significant cluster of casino resort spas that are state-of-the-art and will offer day passes, more so than anywhere else in the country. For the purpose of this review, I'm giving reasons of why the Spa at Aria is a worthwhile destination:
1. I prefer to work out first. The Aria gym is well-equipped. Every cardio machine has a TV (cable-ready). All the weight machines are new and cleaned often. Water, magazines, towels are well-stocked.
2. Besides the spa facilities to be expected (steam room and sauna), Aria spa also has outdoors co-ed pool that is heated. It sits on a balcony that has an amazing view of the strip. Perfect location to rendezvous with the boyfriend/husband if you are doing a couple's spa day.
3. Smaller amenities such as cold towels, juices, fruits, pretzels, coffee, tea, etc. are always available. They could improve with a supply of nuts, dried fruit, and sliced cucumbers (for your eyes).
4. There are also two more rooms available in the co-ed areas that I have not seen at other casino spas: the Shio Salt Room (helpful in detoxing your respiratory system) and a Ganbanyoku Room with Japanese stone beds (helpful in relieving back pain while you catch a cat nap).
I would love to give the Spa at Aria five stars, when they provide a better snack supply as well as cuter slippers (currently they have boring brown plastic footwear).
