My experience with the spa was a lovely one. I spent the morning relaxing while my husband played golf. I had a therapeutic massage done by a skilled therapist who worked on a couple of tight areas on my body. I then spent time in the grotto as well as a quick trip to the ice room. I enjoyed the sauna, steam room and jacuzzi (along with a mimosa) before showering off. The prices for the services are rather high, so be prepared, however, the experience is with it (imho). read more

The reservation system needs work. Because of the strict cancellation policy I wanted to speak with someone at the spa regarding products and selection(allergies). I was told to call the spa - given number -called no answer no voicemail. When left voicemail on main reservation was told they cannot call the spa - only I could call the no answer number then call back again and leave another voicemail and then book it. I'm out. Breaking a sweat trying to book an appointment. read more

Gorgeous, high end, and worth a visit. I wish I had more time to spend in the grotto pool sipping wine. The massage is expensive but you get so much more. Make sure you take time before or after treatment to enjoy the amenities. Bring a book and truly get away for a few hours. read more

The spa is GORGEOUS. Arrive at least an hour early before your apt to use the hot tub, steam room, sauna and open air shower. Plan at least an hour after your services to use the Grotto room & ice room. 20% service charge / tip for your service provider automatically added, and clearly communicated. One of the best spas I've been to. read more

Big Cedar Spa offers incredible amenities, beautiful location, decor, great techs and therapists. Unfortunately, it's poorly managed, detracting from the overall experience. A few weeks ago a couple girlfriends and I scheduled services that concluded at 6:15. We showered to get ready to have dinner at Top of the Rock at 7pm. From the moment we left our services while we showered, got ready, etc, the manager and staff cleaned around us, paced and huffed. We received multiple warnings starting at 6:30. We felt unwelcome, though the spa didn't close until 7pm. Just a few weeks later today, I took a longtime employee for a day at the spa. We enjoyed wonderful facials, massages, pedicures and each of our tech/therapists were great. Our nail techs assisted us in ordering lunch. Our order arrived just before we concluded our service and we were directed to where our lunch was set up. The person delivering food requested payment. I asked if I should run across the spa to the locker room to get my card and she said no, she'd leave it at the front desk, which is typical of a spa during services. I assumed I would pay for it upon exit as I had done before and at EVERY other spa I have been to. After lunch, we went to the sauna where a staff member aggressively asked "are you Julie?" I responded yes and she loudly replied "I need you to come to the lobby to take care of payment immediately." Our relaxing occasion, which was a treat to my staff member suddenly felt stressful. I had to go upstairs, to the locker room and then the lobby to take care of payment. During this period of time, the woman who was unprofessional at my previous experience was walking around aggressively asking every woman she passed if she was Lisa. As I was retrieving my card from my locker, the woman I had just spoken to asked the same, I kindly replied, no, I'm Julie, retrieving payment for lunch. She stormed from the room. My credit card number was written ON PAPER. The (presumed) manager and staff interaction is not typical of spas - it detracted from the relaxing experience for both myself, my guest and surrounding clients. They are in desperate need of training. Also, I pre-paid for our services - why not charge that card or request a card on file up front? You don't walk around in your robe between services with a credit card. read more

Facility is beautiful. Jeff did a wonderful massage for me. Way overpriced. Come on, a service fee after charging over $159 for a one hour massage???? read more

After time here, I now know why women have spa days. I highly recommend this for everyone! My therapist, Amber, was so professional and respectful I was comfortable the entire time. From the hot tub, steam room and sauna to the grotto pool, this spa is world class. The ambiance is soothing and staff are welcoming. They offered a variety of body creams and other products to take home with me. I only had a 45 min treatment, but this is a full day event. My wife scheduled this for me while she had her day in the salon. My wife was so happy with her hair and she looked amazing. The Spa is truly a relaxing way to enjoy your vacation. You must spend time here weather on vacation or if you live local. read more

We booked reservations on October 26, 2023 for a couples massage with 2 female therapist for March 7th, 2024. I was told when I booked the appointments that we were confirmed. I called a couple months later to ensure we were still confirmed. I received a call yesterday morning that they were unable to accommodate our spa reservation request. I was able to cancel our appointments for a full refund from the spa. However, we were charged a $333 cancellation fee by the resort per their cancellation policy for a 2 night stay. I explained to them that I had made our spa reservations first before making the resort room reservation as our primary reason for staying at the resort was for the spa experience. I was told that even though both locations are owned by the same company, each locations has its own management and policies. I would think that as a resort, they would honor overall reservations and not pick and choose. We will not be booking any further visits here and we are sharing our experience with friends and family. read more

Easily the nicest spa I have been to. I can't wait to come back to Big Cedar for our next vacation already and we haven't even left because of the spa alone. You can easily plan to spend 1/2 day here. You can have room service sent to the spa, you can order wine and beer, there's a hot tub, grotto pool, lockers for your belongings, showers, hair dryer, etc. fireplace inside the massage room. They have complimentary cucumber water, banana chips, chocolate covered raisins, robes and sandals for you and you can order wine and beer for additional money. read more

Amazing, expensive, but amazing. The spa area and amenities are the best part. They have a communal pool area that las low lighting and an "ice room", lounge chairs big enough for a couple to relax on together. Very relaxing atmosphere. read more

I haven't been to the new spa since it was rebuilt and my what a treat! Everything about this place gently whispers "come on in and relax". My daughter and I got a hair cut and the girls were excellent!! Can't wait to come back to experience more services!!! read more

This was my first experience at a spa (they have a box on the paperwork asking this). I was told to arrive 20-30 minutes early for my massage. I checked in, was shown where the changing room was and how to use the lockers and then left to fend for myself. Another client had to tell me to undress and put on a robe and then I spent 20 minutes twiddling my thumbs waiting for my appointment. Other than that the massage was good. I also got a shellac mainure which was horrible. The nail tech seemed like she didn't want to be there, didn't cap the tips of my nails, and got dirt and hair in the white polish, which I didn't see until it was finished because she kept pulling my hands towards her. I've had it on for 2 days and it's already lifting. I've had the exact products used many times before and it always lasts a week and a half minimum. Now that I know what to do I'd use the spa portion if I was ever at big cedar again but stay away from the salon. read more
