| - The Venetian is my favorite hotel and I really wanted this to be my favorite spa, to be my go to spa... and I can't help that I was a bit disappointed! Yes, the facility is really nice and relaxing... but it just doesn't compare to Qua over at Caesar's Palace! The amenities here were less, much less. They do have water, coffee, and tea available, as well as some fruits for snacks... but it was nothing compared to Qua. Qua has bottled water, various specialty teas, coffee, and a variety of juices (apple, orange, pineapple), fruits, and pretzels. I only found a variety of tea here in the co-ed area and in a room hidden in the hallways... not in the main waiting area. Don't get me wrong, I did have a nice time relaxing here and this facility is huge, with many hallways... and the MOST of different types of rooms (steam, herbal, cold, etc) I have ever seen, I think about 10! They also have a co-ed area where you can go relax together if you are with a significant other or have a mixed group. In the co-ed area, there is a wave room and I can't remember what the name of the other room was. The thing I disliked most about the facility here was that there was only ONE pool!! It was overpacked and TINY! Barely 6 people could fit into the pool. Another thing I wasn't too thrilled about was the showers and vanity area. The showers here only have one shower head... at Qua, they have showers with SEVEN different shower heads spraying water from all angles. The showers here did have a bench for you to place your things. In case you are wondering, it is individual showers and they place 2 clean towels in each shower. The showers have body wash, shampoo, and conditioner in the stalls already. There are plastic bags for you to put your dirty clothes in and disposable razors available. I saw tons of workers here and the facility was spotless. In the vanity area, there is face cream, lotion, body spray, hair spray... however, if you want any styling tools, you have to ask the front desk. I did not like that. At Qua, each area has tools and brushes for you to use. On the particular day my friend and I went, it seemed really packed. I don't know if that is the norm though. Another thing I did not like was the cold room. It was a wet cold room... and there was no place to sit. It was standing room only with water that sprayed out from the ceiling every now and then. Something I though was cool here was there was an open shower area where you pushed a button and different water sprayed out that mimicked a tropical storm, fog, and one other thing I can't remember. It was really cool because it felt a bit like experiencing the real thing, but in a controlled environment.
My friend and I spent a good 4 hours relaxing here. I loved the large round sofa like chairs. They were super comfy and I don't think I've been able to fall asleep so easily! I wish I had one for my home! We were staying at the Venetian, so it was only $25 to use the facility for the day and you can charge it to your room, so if you also have a Grazie card, you will earn tier points. If you are not a hotel guest, it is $40 to use the spa for the day. For $25, it was totally worth it, even with the one small pool... but for $40, it is not worth it. Pay an extra $5 and go the Qua instead ($45), but sadly, Qua no longer allows non-hotel guests to use the spa facilities... If you are staying at the Venetian, then it is a bit of a walk to the spa, but the hallway is very colorful and happy; from the Palazzo, it is only an elevator away.
