| - WOW! Gorgeous! When I first walked in to check in, I already appreciated the silence. The spa and salon are on a different level from the rest of the casino so the only people down there are there for the fitness center, spa, salon which is nice. I can't forget my experience at Canyon Ranch that while you wait with 10 people ahead of you to check in, there are wild loud people in bikinis heading to the pool and cutting through to walk to their destination. Very strange set up and not relaxing. This was the opposite. I walked in and waited about 2 minutes, then went right up to the check in counter. I was immediately impressed with the waiting area where you check in. I've never seen such pretty couches, chairs, lamps, everything was so beautiful. I liked how the fitness center was easy access from the spa, very close and behind large doors, very private from anyone passing by. Again not like Canyon Ranch where you had to walk a mile to get to the fitness center!
Once I entered I was greeted by friendly attendants who showed me to my locker. I enjoyed the fitness center for a bit, but after seeing the jacuzzi area, I could not keep my mind off of it and had to stop working out to head over to what I was there for, relaxation! I liked the posted sign telling you what order to enjoy things in. Hot shower, then steam, then sauna, etc. The steam room was just right for me, sometimes they are too hot but this was perfect. The sauna on the other hand felt like room temperature, not even hot. Luckily, that isn't my favorite so it didn't bother me that much, but I thought that with these prices it should be in working condition.
The jacuzzi area was really nice and it had little seats carved into it, so you aren't sharing one long bench and they all face the same way, which is nice too, so you don't need to stare at other women while in there. My only gripe was the jets didn't work unless you pressed a button (outside of the jacuzzi). Well that kind of sucked because you get nice and comfy and then the jets turn off! You need to get out and turn them back on. Kind of ruins the mood a bit.
I love the heated chairs oh my goodness. A huge wall behind it with the sound of waterfall as you read magazine or take a nap. There are also waterfall showers. I didn't use them, because I was so busy using everything in there.
Finally it's my time to go to the waiting area inside the women's lounge to wait for my appointment. Assorted teas, trail mixes, and coffee are available. They should have some sort of fruity water in this area. They only had room temperature water bottles, hmm.
The real WOW was once you enter to go the treatment rooms and that hall is breathtaking!! There is no way you cant feel relaxed at this point if you did not prior to this moment. The lighting is really serene.
I enjoyed my facial, the therapist, the hot mitts on my hand, and my heated robe at the end of it all. I wish I just relaxed a little more instead of talking nonstop, bad habit.

-1 star for :
showers don't completely shut leaving about 6-8 inches of space that anyone who walks by can watch you shower
-cucumbers all around jacuzzi area
-trash left on some of the heated chairs never cleaned up during the whole time I was there
-button to turn on jets is annoying because you need to keep pressing it after a few minutes
I went during a quiet Sunday during dinner time. I am not sure it would be this empty during peak times. I enjoyed the little amount of people when I went.
I think everyone deserves to go here at least once!
