I booked here after verifying they accepted the gift card I had. I go to check out and she tells me…read morethey've been asking SpaWeek to take down their business and they can't accept the gift card. It is YOUR BUSINESS on the website and you should honor it from YOUR advertisement. The manager came out and didn't give a crap saying "I've been asking them to take it down" over and over again. So her lack of following up for HER company came at MY expense. I had read a lot of reviews of this place screwing people out of money before booking and should have listened. My facialist was fantastic and let me know she would be moving companies so I will be following her to her new place and never returning here. DO NOT BOOK HERE! There are too many other fantastic spas in the area that do right by their customers. This place does not.

The staff were kind and helpful and both the spa and waiting areas were tidy. This spa boasts a lot of amenities (indoor and outdoor pool, sauna, steam room, etc) that are able to be used during your visit. Our massages were later in the evening (6 pm) so a lot of snacks and beverages were already put away for the day once we finished our massages. It's always a treat to visit this spa when I'm in Charlotte and this visit was no different!

My initial couple of massages with Amanda were pretty good. After that they became just ok and mundane and predictable. A really good therapist will change things up every time and make you feel like all your issues were addressed each visit. Unfortunately here not so much. I'm sure if you casually go once in a while this place would be ok.

A robe, slippers and a spa bag for my belongings was already prepared - a nice touch. I started with the salt cave experience. It was relaxing and I was cautioned that anything I brought into the room would have a salt residue afterwards. I didn't really notice a salt residue at all, even on my wet hair. The spa music and the lounge chair did make for a quiet transition from my busy morning into peaceful relaxing mode. Afterwards, I enjoyed a bit of time in the relaxation room. For hot tea, each day they have both a caffeinated and a decaffeinated option. It was served on a cute tray with honey and sugar options. Last, my 90 minute massage. A choice of scalp massage or foot massage was offered and I opted for the foot massage without hesitation. I requested medium pressure and only asked once for a bit less pressure in a sensitive area of my lower back, and my therapist was quick to adjust. I chose the lavender blend massage oil and it smelled lovely. Special attention was paid to my shoulders where I carry most of my tension. Having booked only a couple of days in advance, I did make a deposit of 50% up front and was already within the cancellation window. If more than one service is confirmed, a 20% gratuity for each is automatically added but that was well explained up front and during check out. I noticed a list of monthly membership options during checkout and I'm actually considering joining. It was easy to get an appointment and very relaxing, though I'd probably skip the salt cave and go right to the massage or opt for a facial next time.

If you're used to high-end spa experiences, you will be disappointed. It's small, there are no…read moreamenities included with the services, and even simple things like warming the hot oils had to be requested instead of being part of the normal experience. I booked a rooftop couples massage a month in advance. When we arrived, they told us the rooftop was closed, even though they had already taken my deposit for this service. The weather was perfect, they then offered to set up the rooftop quickly if I paid an extra $200. The manager rushed me to make a decision on the spot about whether I wanted to pay extra for the rooftop or move to a very small, not aesthetically pleasing room instead. This completely took away from what was supposed to be a relaxing experience and didn't make sense because this was the service I originally booked. The management and staff aren't professional or accommodating. Very strange experience. Following up on Kristy's message here: Urbanna spa accepted a deposit for a rooftop spa appointment. The only reason I booked with Urbanna spa was for the rooftop experience. I intentionally booked on the first day of spring, the weather was 77° with sunny skies and they told me the rooftop was closed after I arrived and checked in. I asked to reschedule on a day the rooftop was open, but no staff could confirm when the rooftop would be open. Kristy (who was not present during my appointment) claims alternative options were offered. Just want to clarify that this is also not true. The only option they gave me tiny room I've attached. I was told management would follow up with a call after my service but Kristy's comment below is the only follow up I've ever received from Urbanna spa. This is not your traditional spa experience. If you're used to high end spa experiences, this will feel very low quality. I highly recommend Woodhouse or Spa At Ballantyne if you're looking for that high-quality experience. Thank you, Kristy, your comments below are a perfect illustration of the quality of service at Urbana.

I never feel uncomfortable there at all as this is definitely a "both genders welcome" type of place where guys can go for all their waxing needs and not feel weird. Barbara is very personable and always takes the time to answer any questions you may have without coming off in a condescending manner like some other not to be mentioned spas in the area seem to almost take pride in displaying. No matter your skin care need, no matter your gender, age or race, you will feel totally welcome and at home at Nola Spa, which again may sound like a simple concept to some, but unfortunately this is not necessarily the norm at all spas in the area based on my personal experience. So, with all that said, it is my pleasure to welcome Nola Spa into the five star club, as it is well deserved.
