| - As an anniversary gift, the bf surprised me with a "COUPLES 50 Minute Swedish Massage." Of course I was super giddy since this was the first time we'd ever received a massage together AND since I was in badly need of a relaxing rub down.
Since we were staying at MGM, their own spa was obviously the most convenient choice. The spa is located in the direction towards the pool area, but to the left side before the escalators/stairs leading directly outside to the pool area. We arrived an hour early, as suggested, to take advantage of the spa facilities while waiting for our massages. As soon as we checked in, me and the bf were whisked away to the separate female/male areas....
***LOVED***
-THE RAINFALL SHOWER HEAD. Love it, love it love it! I took a shower before and after my appointment and loved the way the water (from this very large and circular shower head situated directly above me) encompassed my entire body with a steady stream of warm water. It was totally relaxing and yet energizing. When i buy my own house, even if its a rinky dinky house, I'm definitely installing a rainfall shower head!
-The WHIRLPOOL. Tucked away in its own area I managed to relax here without any interruption or disturbance from anyone else. FYI, this spa is also a 'clothing optional' spa; so with my newfound sense of relaxation from the amazing shower, I whirlpool'd it in my birthday suit.
-The QUIET LOUNGE AREA. Has plenty of comfy couches and a few lounge couches. with a table full of magazines and snacks and drinks (chilled water, fruit juice, granola mix, and fruit. I bundled up in the robe provided to me in my locker and easily knocked out on the comfy lounge couch while waiting to be called.
****************
My female masseuse soon came in to the sitting area calling my name. I was led to the outside check in area where I met up with my bf and his female masseuse. FYI, upon making massage appts you are given the option of either a male or female masseuse. We were led to our treatment room which consisted of 2 separate massage tables. We were left alone to remove our robes. Again, we had the option of either removing or leaving on underwear and with that our 50 minute swedish massage began....
***SO-SO***
-THE MASSAGE. Our massages were mediocre. After our time had ended and we were alone in the room getting dressed my bf said his wasn't as great as he was expecting it to be, which was true. There wasn't enough intensity as I've felt from other swedish massages that I've gotten at other places. It was unfortunate because of how expensive a massage in any quality Vegas hotel can be. We joked that if we had been left alone in the room, we would've been better at massaging each other since we already know each other's preferences...or we should have asked for male masseuses.
*****************
Afterwards we were led back to the separate spa facilities and told that we had free access to it for the rest of the day. With that, me and the bf spent another hour at the spa. I immediately took another shower under the amazing rainfall shower head!!!
