| - Been here several times (probably 6 times over the course of 4 years), this is the first time I'm writing about it.
I've not had a bad experience yet, and I feel it's unfortunate that some of the other Yelpers didn't have a really great experience.
Yes, it is expensive, but then I've been to other spas that charged about the same and didn't have as nice of facilities or amenities.
Recent visit was on Thursday, Dec 30th.
Being a local, I love that the spa is not "inside" the casino/hotel and that it has its own parking lot so that I can easily access it off of Carnegie.
I indulged in the Chocolate Body Wrap and a 25 minute add-on massage. Result = Absolute Bliss. The Chocolate Wrap wasn't as "chocolate-y" as I thought it would be ... but it felt sooooo goooood! Steve did a great job with the scrub and massaging and wrapping. At one point, I think I fell asleep I was so relaxed. Cynthia did my massage and she has amazing hands.... given a bit more time and I know I would have been pudding in her hands.
The facility has a number of great attributes which really work for me.
- modern and quiet gym overlooking the spa's private pool area
- roomy locker area with big square benches to sit on and a separate curtained area to change
- steam room
- dry sauna
- energy / vibrator thing that amazingly relaxes and stimulates your muscles all at the same time, and you feel energized when you get off of it
- private "women-only" jacuzzi
- co-ed jacuzzi
- quiet outdoor sitting area with fireplace in the co-ed area
- showers with the rainfall shower head
- they provide soap, shampoo, conditioner, body lotions, toothbrushes, tooth paste, razors, mouthwash, hair dryers and other items that I just can't remember
- waiting area with water, tea, juices, granola, nuts, pretzels and fruit
I'll definitely be back. It's a great place to have some quiet-time and have the knots-of-life worked on and massaged until you feel all loose and peaceful.
