Great Location!

by ayami

I just recently went to this spa for a facial for my birthday. . . I'm pregnant, and was in my first trimester, so I couldn't get a massage yet. . . When I called to book the appointment, a woman answered all my questions about getting a massage while pregnant and she was really helpful.

This spa is what I would consider a Day Spa. . . it doesn't have all the ammenities like a larger ritzy spa (think Burke Williams), but it does have a shower and locker rooms. I loved the atmosphere - vases filled with sea shells and bamboo.

I definitely want to go back to get the signature foot treatment. . . you get to sit outside on the patio and look at an amazing view!

The staff was pleasant, and the service was comparable to the facials that I have recieved at other spas. . . I would definitely go back - during the months that are warmer so I can sit on the patio!

• Pros: Location, location, location. . . staff, view, and ambience
• Cons: Parking!!! Get there EARLY, have someone drop you off, or take a taxi. . . that's horrendous!

it definitely felt like an ESCAPE

i was visiting the los angeles area, when i decided to get a massage back in january....i simply walked in and they were able to schedule me immediately....the only drawback was that they did not ask me if i preferred a male/female massage therapist, so they initially scheduled me with a male....when the massage therapist called me for my appt, i had to inform him i preferred a female.....the massage therapist didn't look too happy, but nonetheless the front desk receptionist immediately switched the appt to accommodate my request promptly. the only downfall was that my massage was cut a little short as a result of the time it took for them to arrange the switch....however, the lady who ended up doing my massage was excellent!! one of the best i've ever had.....i definitely plan on stopping in on my next visit to los angeles.....the facility is very quaint and nicely done....it's an older style home turned spa, very cute!
