  • Canyon Ranch is the spa/salon face of the Venetian|Palazzo hotel complex. This was the first spa experience in Vegas for my mom, sister and myself and for Christmas last year my mom treated my sister and I to massages at the hotel spa. The spa club is accessible straight from the rooms themselves. Taking the elevator from your room to the 3rd floor will take you straight to the lobby. Allow at least 10 minutes from the time of your appointment to check-in as not only will you have to sign forms but they'll also take you on a tour of the facility if you're a first-time visitor. Upon check-in another staff member will take you on said tour. The tour did nothing to get me acquainted with the place as the massage rooms and common areas are all scattered. Half of the time I was there I was just trying to get oriented. Upon entering the complex they'll ask you to replace your shoes with slippers that are used when walking around the complex. Once you get your slippers you are taken to the lockers where each person is assigned a locker and key. Opening and closing the lockers require a tap of the key. Contained inside the lockers are the robes that you'll use during the duration of your experience. There's another waiting area that people can use to wait for their service. It's divided into a quiet section and the non-quiet section. In the quiet section cell phone conversation is forbidden but each chair is comfortable and has its own lamp and electrical outlet. Flavored water, tea and fruit are complimentary and self-serve in the waiting area. AQUAVANA For each service booked that day you'll get complimentary access to the spa's facilities collectively called Aquavana or you can just purchase a day pass for about $40. There are two parts of Aquavana, the single-sex thermal environments and the co-ed gathering spaces. I didn't get to try everything as I didn't have a swimsuit on me and I was too conscientious to show my bare self (I'm not in Europe so American puritanical guilt is quite evident here). - The saunas are sorted based on temperature and humidity. I actually preferred the dry sauna over the wet sauna as I was able to sit still and still able to see. I am slightly sensitive to humid saunas and can only be there for 5 minutes at a time. For the most humid sauna option the door was slightly broken and in order for the room to keep its humidity you had to push the door shut. - I surprisingly enjoyed the Herbal Laconium. The herbs infused into the steam were pleasant smelling but not too strong that I could be there for an extended period. - Salt Grotto/Wave Room: I have a hard time sitting still (the No1DP can attest to this) yet I was able to just still still and be immersed in the tranquil environment for at least 10 minutes in each room. I guess salted air and waves put me in a tranquil mood more readily. MASSAGE I got the 50 minute Deep Tissue ($185/50 minutes). Massages are tiered by the service offered and the day of the week of the service as a session is more expensive from Thursday-Sunday. I had a female therapist and she was able to apply the medium-firm pressure I asked for most of the time. My only criticism is that she could have applied more pressure on my upper back and shoulders as those areas are the places that tighten up easily. The services here are great but are super expensive for longer massages. A 30 minute extension to my massage is at least an additional $100. Ideally I like my 80-90 minute massages (as you don't feel rushed) but I'll have to look elsewhere for a more affordable massage place. --- For those that have the cash, Canyon Ranch is a great way to spend a full or half day just relaxing and focusing on yourself. In addition to the above services there's a salon, health club/gym and a restaurant that serves healthy food. Maybe I'll have to learn to sit still longer so that I'll have more of an appreciation of this place.
