| - I think I have discovered my go-to spa in Vegas. Now, I'm just sad I didn't discover it while I was living there! I keep thinking of how many more times I could have visited the place. I stopped by here with several hours to kill before my flight home. I only got the day pass, as I had splurged most of my spa budget away a few days before at the Mandarin Oriental. I was in love with this place as soon as I walked in the door!
Pros:
1. The water facilities here are amazing! I think this is what makes this spa so awesome. There are 4 pools total. In the main area, you will find one hot, one cold, and one warm-ish pool. There's a rain-style waterfall that cascades into the hot and cold pools. This makes an incredibly relaxing sound that you can hear through the whole room. The warm-ish pool has jets and lighting that changes color. Further back in the spa, you will find a large, round classic jacuzzi.
2. The vibe of this spa is amazing. The whole thing feels like some sort of hidden cave oasis. The colors are neutral throughout with tan sandstone on the walls and purple lighting. It is incredibly relaxing.
3. This spa is huge, and the layout is really wonderful, as other reviewers have mentioned. It can accommodate a lot of people, yet areas are sectioned off so it feels a little more private.
4. There's an abundance of juices, teas, coffees, and waters. They also have pretzels, apples, and oranges. Possibly some granola, as well?
5. All of the spa attendants here were very friendly
6. The showers are neat, because you can adjust it to have water come out of the sides of the walls. There's water at every angle!
Cons:
1.It gets crowded. It wasn't terrible, but I was there in the afternoon on a Tuesday. I would hate to see this place on a weekend.
2. The Arctic Room was a little over-hyped. The "snow" flurries weren't super noticeable, but I suppose this chilly room is a nice break between the sauna and steam room.
Other info:
1. They have a sauna and steam room as well. These are nothing remarkable, but they serve their purposes well.
2. This place is clothing optional, as are many spas on the strip. However, this was the first spa where I actually saw people take advantage of that policy. I think half the people using the facilities were naked. So just be prepared for that if nudity is something that makes you cringe!
Overall, I feel like everything just flows so well at this spa. The environment is so relaxing! I have been to quite a few spas, and this was my favorite. I can't wait until I can go back!
