Or friends leaving reviews? Either way mediocre massages at a high cost of what a hotel charges.

VYANA Wellness, Cambria (2 stars)…read more I had high hopes for this place. I'd consulted with an AI assistant while planning our Cambria trip and VYANA came back as a top recommendation. When I called to book, I was pleased to find someone answered despite them technically being closed that day. We booked the 90-minute deluxe package, which included 25 minutes in an infrared sauna, a 90-minute massage, and champagne and chocolates. At $495 for two, the bar was set accordingly. The sauna was genuinely enjoyable. Infrared, very dry, got up to about 150 degrees. My partner tapped out after ten or fifteen minutes but I sat in there and sweated happily. That part delivered. The massage is where things fell apart, at least for me. My therapist started with a lavender or rose water spritz and exfoliating gloves, which was a nice touch, followed by hot stones and a hot towel. The setup suggested something therapeutic was coming. It didn't. The entire 90 minutes was an extremely light, non-therapeutic rub, always through the sheet, rarely with any real pressure or intention. I specifically told her at the outset that I had never met a massage with too much pressure and had some pectoral soreness from daily pushups. She acknowledged it and said she would start light and ramp up. She started light and stayed there. She never check-in or inquired beyond the initial 10 second conversation. She did a lot of little massage "techniques" like pinching and pulling the skin along my spine, massing scalp and ear lobes, pinching the webbing between my thumb and pointer finger, etc. but no real massage. For reference, my therapist, who never provided her name was a moderately petite, youngish white woman, probably in her early thirties, from Minnesota, with a shaved head and a long strip of hair running down the back, almost like a female mullet. She was covered in tattoos. If you encounter her, I would strongly suggest having a very direct conversation about pressure and therapeutic intent before the session begins, or simply request a different therapist. My partner had the opposite experience. Same tools, same setup, but her therapist actually worked on problem areas when she found them. She came out glowing. I came out frustrated. After the massage concluded, my therapist never reappeared to check on us. I noticed her sitting in the sauna room on her cell phone as I walked past. My partner's therapist came out and greeted us warmly. The contrast was hard to miss. One more thing: the champagne and chocolates that are part of the package were left in the sauna room and again in the massage room both times without being offered. I had to ask for them at checkout. Small thing, but at this price point the details matter. I left a twenty percent tip because that's what I do, not because it was earned. My partner's therapist earned hers. Mine did not. If you come here, ask specifically about therapist style and pressure preferences, and follow up on it. The bones of this place are good. The execution, depending on who you get, may not be.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The location is a home, but don't let that stop you from treating this with the same trust (in fact - more!) you would from a fancy spa. The experience was one of total hospitality. Kind of like going to a good friend's house who just happens to be a fantastic masseuse. The massage itself was perfect. I indicated a need for deep pressure, as many places go light. This always has the potential to backfire, though, as "deep pressure" for one part of the body will be different than another. At Cambria Wellness the treatment was intuitively perfect throughout -- adjusting to more intensity on stubborn shoulder muscles, less push on tender calves. I plan to return to the Cambria region, and will be returning to Cambria Wellness as well. Thank you for the great experience!

It wasn't a typical Swedish massage; the masseuse integrated dry brush and hot stones in the massage. It was truly a unique relaxing massage as she worked and pinpointed areas where I didn't even realize were sore points. I was prepared to tell her to either apply more or less pressure but I never needed to do it because she wasn't just applying the pressure with fingers or elbows. Wasn't sure what it was but it worked so well. We had a couples massage. My husband typically prefers deep tissue so while it was relaxing, it wasn't for him as he felt the pressure wasn't enough. But if you prefer a relaxing, soothing massage, this is for you. Not sure when I will be back in Cambria but if I am, I will definitely go back! Highly recommend! (I'm super bad with names but our two masseuses were Audrey and Alyssa we think. My husband says Audrey worked on me.)
