Excellent spa facilities

by amandazidow

Skin Haven Spa definitely gets 5 stars for many things: clean facilities, excellent massage therapists, and very friendly service. I recently took my husband their as part of a wedding present. We had the couples massage, and we were very satisfied with the services. It was my husband's first massage experience and on the way home, he asked when we could schedule another visit. I would definitely recommend Skin Haven for anyone looking to receive some high quality pampering in a delightful atmosphere.

• Pros: Free parking
• Cons: Very small parking lot

Best place to Pamper Yourself!

by Jrudy1665

Skin Haven is exactly as it's name suggests. From the minute you walk in the door you are enveloped in a relaxing, zen atmosphere. The facials and massages are fantastic and you walk out of there feeling rested, relaxed and totally refreshed. Skin Haven is a perfect place to get away from the craziness of LA and slip into a little slice of heaven.

Best Massage Therapists in LA

by ejh824

Skin Haven has the best massage therapists in LA. Usually I find one person I like and stick with them, but the great thing about Skin Haven is you can you can book an appointment with anyone ann you are guaranteed to leave feeling relaxed and stress free. They really listen to you and focus on the areas of body that need the most work. Each time I get a massage it is tailored to my needs of that day. I superficially recommend the Signature Massage-it's great!

best couples massage

by downlo

The best massage ever! I took my beloved for an anniversary treat, he has never had a massage. We had a couples massage. I tend to get massages every other month - so I know what to expect & also when to be disappointed. The massage is 70 minutes which is a great amount of time. The room was a little small, but not a problem. Both of the girls new what they were doing and were very experienced. I would definately recommend & return even though it is a trek. Good parking, good vibe.

• Pros: very nice staff - good vibe.
• Cons: couples room was a bit small.

Great for peace and pampering! I totally recommend it!

by fyneteacher

It was very relaxing. I love the environment of the spa. If you are interested in the total spa experience then this is the place. I visited them three times... I had a facial, body treatment, and a massage... it was fabulous! At the time, I definitely needed the peace and pampering of Skin Haven and that is what they gave me. I loved it there. I will be going back soon.

Best Spa in LA: A truly ?havenly? experience that will literally leave you glowing!

by HypnoMel

From the moment I walked through the doors of Skin Haven, I immediately felt like I was on Cloud 9. As soon as I took a whiff of the wonderful scents that permeate the spa, I knew it was time for my mind to shut off (in a good way), to relax, unwind, and leave my worries at the door. I put on my cozy spa socks and was directed to the spa lounge (the comfy, quiet, zen waiting room that everyone wishes they had in their own home). Before long, spa owner, Sharon Ronen, came to whisk me away and take me into one of the treatment rooms for my facial. Prior to starting the treatment, Sharon asked if I had any questions or concerns. I told that her since I was going out later that night, I was slightly worried about having red marks on my face from the blackhead extraction, which I knew was an undoubtedly necessary part of the treatment. Sharon assured me that if the extraction is done at the right time during the treatment (after the skin has been appropriately prepped), there should be no red marks. She went on to say that most of her clients leave the treatment room looking better than they did when they came in. She promised no red marks and she was absolutely right! The treatment was incredible. Sharon?s warm and tender touch was incredibly healing. I don't remember the last time I felt taken care of like that. Everything from the warm bed to the warm towels to the amazing aromas of the products to the wonderfully relaxing massage was just perfect! I was so relaxed, I almost fell asleep during the treatment. After the facial, my skin no longer looked dull and dry. It had a nice, shiny glow. And, I felt like a whole new person. Thank you Sharon and thanks Skin Haven for an incredible experience!

Absolutely wonderful experience

by chefgirl75

WOW, this place is everything you could possibly ask for and more! I had such a stellar experience here and would highly recommend Skin Haven to anyone looking for a comfortable, lovely place to have any kind of treatments. I did their "It Takes Two" couples package with my boyfriend and it was an incredible day. They even provided glasses for us to drink champagne between treatments. What a treat. They thought of everything we would want and anticipated our needs, even down to details like having the therapist leave us a delicious chocolate after our treatments. My facial, massage, and body treatment were all perfect, smelled amazing, and left me feeling relaxed and my skin feeling amazing. I didn't need to shower away a bunch of extra oil--in fact I wanted to leave all the wonderful stuff on my skin so I could continue to smell it. They even sent me home with some of the oil they used, and the herb pouches from my body treatment, so I could use them in my bath at home. Fabulous.

We loved our soft robes and bought a pair to take home with us, along with their amazing spa socks. Each therapist was so nice and really tailored the treatments for our specific needs and requests. They used hot towels during the massage which felt great and really relaxed me into a dreamy state. My boyfriend loved the hot stone massage and absolutely loved his (first) facial. The lounge is really comfortable and we had the best day together, with the help of the staff at Skin Haven. We also loved the tea and snacks in the lounge, and already booked appointments for Valentine's Day weekend. Can't wait to go back! We will definitely make this a monthly ritual. They even have a private parking lot, which is a major help in this city. This place is absolutely perfect!!

• Pros: fabulous treatments, attention to detail, beautiful lounge & comfy robes
• Cons: nothing we could find

I feel like I've been on vacation when I leave here!

by StressBuster

I've been going here for almost 2 years after finding them on Citysearch when I moved to LA and this place is everything a day spa should be: friendly, cozy, relaxing, and customer-service oriented. I tried several places before finding them so when I finally got here I really felt the difference the moment I walked in the front door. The manager Melody is really helpful and sweet, and every therapist I have had here has been warm, friendly, caring, and extremely skilled at their job.

The atmosphere is so beautiful and upscale without feeling uptight. It always smells amazing when I walk in the door, and their attention to detail is spectacular. Everything from decor to merchandise to snack offerings and artwork is spot-on and they change things regularly to keep it fresh and seasonal. Treatment offerings vary seasonally as well which is great. I often try their monthly special treatment package (sign up for their monthly eblast!) which offers reduced rates on bundled treatments, and everything I've tried has been wonderful. They really do care about each client and it shows throughout each experience I've had here. I've gotten fantastic skin care tips, product recommendations, and even personalized stretching exercises from the therapists here and all have been very thoughtful and helpful.

I've brought friends here, given gift certificates (they now have instant GC's on their web site which is great), and hosted a spa party and everyone I have introduced to Skin Haven has loved it from the moment they arrived. If you are a detail-oriented person you will truly appreciated how much thought they have put into every aspect of this place. They are also very hygiene conscious--no double dipping in the wax here, ever! They ditched the communal jacuzzi in favor of their gorgeous "Zen Lounge" which is like the room you wish you had at home to relax in.

This place is truly a haven from my stressful busy life and I am so thrilled to have found them.

• Pros: amazing treatments, great staff, wonderful atmosphere
• Cons: none!
