| - While I'm not a frequent spa-goer, I was delighted to receive a wonderful getaway here for my birthday this year! The valet took my car on arriving and I was directed through the resort to a serene spa location. After checking in, I was led upstairs, where I was shown each of the facilities offered by Joya. The entire spa is decorated in a beautiful Moroccan style that I loved, complete with a cozy pillow-laden room for lounging and relaxing. I started there before being treated to a wonderful massage, where the therapist offered a few complimentary extras (oils/aromatherapy options) when she learned it was my birthday! (Very thoughtful of her!) She did an excellent job and after feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated, I decided to take a little time next to the pool, which offered a phenomenal view of Camelback Mountain. (Seriously, gorgeous!!) Before my mani/pedi, I got to experience the other amenities, including the sauna, ice deluge and spa tubs. Such a treat! I found myself staying as late as possible to enjoy the experience. At the end of the day, I was able to shower and to use the complementary styling products to get ready for my birthday dinner. It almost couldn't have been a more perfect day!! Thanks, Joya!
(Side Note: It looked like they had a pretty great happy-hour deal on Mondays. I'd definitely recommend checking that out if you want a first-taste of the spa!)
