| - When you yelp it can affect your "experience". I was excited to have a spa day with a girlfriend for her birthday, and thoroughly felt I deserved it from my husband as the NFL "regular" season had ended. We arrived changed into our robes and wanted to get a quick bite before the treatments. Well, the spa can have food delivered but there really isn't a place to eat in the spa comfortably. So, we went over to the pool area restaurant which is casual... a good thing when you are in a robe! So here I start thinking-- oh this place is destined for a three star review. The pool food is very, very, very good. We all three had the shrimp, tomato, cucumber salad. It is resort prices but again was very tasty. So, we returned to the spa and I could not shake the chill. The spa was very cold, and that is uncomfortable-- get ready for three stars... maybe two. They do have dry and wet steam plus a hot tub so I finally warmed up-- ok the chill is gone you are back to three stars. Then it was time for my Chai Tea Body Wrap, yes it was fantastic. My therapists was fantastic, Amy. She earned the Biltmore Spa another star. My wrap was on special for $115 and I would say for the price, and because I had great company it was one of the best spa days I have had. Just having access to the pool/spa for the day is soothing. So, I don't think the spa can ever get to a five with the design it is just too small. However, don't overlook it b/c the therapist are very good and for the right price it beats some of the areas nicest spas.
