Obsessulated doesn't even begin to describe how much I love this place. I booked a couples' massage here for a birthday gift, selecting the 'Getaway Plus' option to have 110 extra minutes in the suite. After looking over all the photos, I selected the "Tent Suite." I liked the day bed, in addition to the big tub. The massage itself was relaxing - don't expect a deep tissue or anything. I asked for extra firm pressure before and during the massage, but we never really quite got there. No problem, though, because I was super relaxed and almost fell asleep. I packed charcuterie supplies and sparkling wine. I maybe overpacked on the utensils, because they really did have everything else there. This is a super romantic spot and feels very fancy for a special event. read more

If I could, I would give this place 0 stars. My boyfriend and I were on our way all the way from Whidbey Island. We booked it on Friday and planned for a 12:00-2:50 p.m. couples massage on Saturday. We got up on Saturday and started driving, even allowing for a 30-minute buffer time. The GPS said we would arrive at 11:30 a.m. Unfortunately, our car, which we have never had problems with before, had just died on the highway. We were 30 minutes away, and it was an hour prior to 12 when the incident occurred, so I called them and let them know what was going on. I had hoped that they would be understanding and waive the cancellation fee, which is 50% of the total price. Thinking they would be understanding and flexible enough to even rebook me another day so we could still experience this and 100% pay them, because why would we not? That's not at all what happened. Management said that the masseuses still had to get paid somehow, and even after experiencing this emergency with our car, we still had to pay the 50% cancellation fee. We will absolutely not be returning, due to this company's lack of understanding and flexibility with its customers. read more

My fiancé booked us the Couples Getaway Plus massage in the Stone Carver's Suite and it was amazing. The ambience was incredibly romantic and created the perfect space for us to truly relax. The dry sauna, couples massage, rustic soaking tub, and large stand-in shower were all 10/10. Water and tea are provided, and there's a beautifully set dining table so you can bring your own food and drinks. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we're already looking forward to returning in February for his birthday read more

I had an amazing experience at Little Red Day Spa. My massage therapist was excellent and the customer service was great. The spa room and amenities are the absolute best. I highly recommend going Little Red Spa if you to have an unforgettable experience. Thanks to the staff for helping to make my birthday an amazing day. read more

My girlfriend and I did the couples getaway in the painters studio and it was fantastic. We did the 50 min massage and the 110 min suite hangout. The lobby area is clean and calming, the staff were very nice and we were shown to our suite right on time. They gave us a quick tour of our suite, which included a bathroom, double headed shower, large wooden tub, kitchenette, day bed, and salt sauna. The massage was great! I thought it was on par or better than many massages I've had before. The massage tables are heated as well. Once they left after the 50 minutes, we ate sushi and shared a drink in our robes which was a perfect date night. The shower was great, the tub is large so make sure to fill it up ahead of time but it was very hot. The sauna was also perfect. Highly recommend this to anyone who wants a little getaway. The time goes by so fast! Very clean, very fun. Enjoyed every minute. read more

We had a great time at the couples suite today. My partner took me here for my birthday, and it was a great experience. The parking was easy, right outside. The service was great, they greeted us immediately inside. We had a 50 minute couples massage and then 50 more minutes for the sunset suite. The massage felt amazing, it left me wanting another massage soon. The aesthetic inside was cozy and warm. I wish I took more photos, but I only took two. The room is much bigger than what I posted, with a sauna, dual headed shower, cold plunge, and a tub. We used the tub and sauna after. I would recommend! read more

It's been awhile since I've written a yelp review but this place earned it! I have been here once in person and talked to them once on the phone and I'm not entirely sure what was worse. The first time was a few years ago when I was surprise treated to a spa day with a girlfriend. Upon entering, the space itself is cute enough, but is a bit dated, dusty, and full of furniture that you can probably never fully deep clean. I think it was the "Painting Suite"? Don't bring a black light... It smells like a mixture of cheap lavender oil and whatever varnish the wood is sloppily sealed with. The room had poor ventilation to the point where I wonder if it ever actually dries out in there. It seemed strangely... moist... My girlfriend was really excited to surprise me, so I was grateful for the experience but felt like I needed a shower somewhere else afterward to feel clean again. I'm glad she didn't opt for a massage package. Fast forward to this year- my dear sweet girl brought this place up again and asked if I was interested in a couples massage. Oof. I told her I would call and ask some questions so I would feel comfortable booking. I tried to find what I need online, but the website is chaotic and looks like it was made by a child who was too excited about italics in 1995. Nearly unreadable. I called and Valerie picked up the phone. I started by asking some basic pricing questions, where I could get information about the providers (do they have a website or things they specialize in?) , but was met with short hurried answers that made me feel like I was bothering her. She cut me off and started rattling off how to use the website to schedule etc. It's almost like I could feel her rolling her eyes over the phone. If the customer service person is unprofessional, it doesn't exactly instill trust in the rest of the business. I told her I had to go and would maybe call back later. I did not. I honestly feel like I dodged a bullet due to the last experience I had here. I'm giving an extra star just for Starla (hehe) who I met when I visited, who was more than helpful and so so sweet. I wish it was her who picked up the phone. I think I also met the owner(?), an odd little bald guy, who seemed a bit too into wanting to show us his "erotic art", which eeked me out a little and we politely declined. This place is strange. read more

We were given a gift certificate here with the promise of the most intimate and romantic couples massage we have ever had, and our friends were right. From the outside, you would never expect the inside to be so detailed in its decorations and luxurious amenities of the suites. We had two hours booked for our suite, which included an hour couples massage. Our masseuses were great, and mine worked really hard to provide the deep tissue therapeutic massage I prefer. Our suite had romantic lighting, tasteful erotic paintings, a toilet room, stone shower, copper stand alone bath with bubbles and salts, a day bed for lounging, a table and kitchen area with table settings and wine glasses/ fridge/ tea and hot water heater, and a tiny sauna! It was so much more than I was expecting. We loved the massages and enjoyed the sauna and bath after while nomming on wine and snacks we'd brought with us. They also have wine and snacks for purchase and a room service menu in case you don't want to bring your own. Really unique place and perfect for a special evening with your special someone. read more

Time goes by so fast when you are relaxing and enjoying your time. We purchased a Groupon for a couples massage and for time in one of the Moroccan rooms. Massage was nice and the essential oils they used smelled so good! Lavendar and eucalyptus. The room was so big and fun to hang out it. We brought our own cheese platter and wine and felt a little hurried due to the limited time. Interesting building-the interior decor that is, it was eclectic and definately serves as another purpose besides massages. read more

My man surprised me for my birthday with a couples massage. My first massage ever!! Upon arrival we were given a free room upgrade, tour of the room, and introduction to our masseuses Cassandra and Kai. We were in the art suite with a sauna, shower, tub, bathroom, upstairs nook, couch, plenty of beautiful art, and dinning table with fridge. Tea and water available as well. Large room with Himalayan salt lamps and dim romantic lighting. Music and lighting can be adjusted to your liking. The massage was amazing! They were so professional and kind. I felt sooo relaxed and in awe with how great my first experience was. They knew what they were doing! True professionals. Thank you soooo much Cassandra and Kai for your amazing hard work! I was so happy, relaxed, and comfortable that I could've fallen asleep lol! I highly enjoyed the art on the walls. Also during the massage the lavender essential oil diffuser was a nice touch for deep relaxation. Would definitely recommend the masseuses Cassandra and Kai! We had such a relaxing and romantic time, I am still thinking about how great our experience was :) read more

I absolutely love this place. It's quaint yet open and spacious. The interior two story with a walk around balcony is stunning. It kind of reminds me of kind of an old brothel feeling. Amazing spot amenities and for a Day Spa you forget that you're right smack in the middle of seattle. This is one of my go-to spas. read more

An inspired idea to combine massage with "alone time" with a partner in a large ornate room with a huge soaking tub or sauna. There's also a "room service" menu of regular and alcoholic drinks. The massage practitioners were experienced and talented and were very quick to identify problem areas and the best pressure to use, just by "feel" and reading my reaction to the massage. We felt so relaxed and refreshed after this experience, and will definitely try it again. read more

I booked a facial appointment with my partner, and we had the pleasure of receiving our services from Ash and Mia. We had an incredible experience. The ambiance of the room was so beautiful and relaxing, the girls were extremely knowledgeable, kind and had amazing technique. We both almost fell asleep during our service! We couldn't get over how amazing our overall experience was from start to finish. Highly recommend! read more

Wow just wow. I can't fully express the experience I had at this spa. We had the stone carver suite with an 80 min massage. Our massage therapist's hands were heaven on earth. The room had a salt sauna, xL bathtub, day bed, and shower. The room also had bath salts, body oil, and lavender spray if you choose to relax by yourself or get an extended massage from your partner. The room is also stocked with tea, water, silverware for snacks, and glasses for your drinks. It's very common to bring your drinks and snacks but they also have some items for sale. read more

Amazing experience. We booked the art suite for a couple hours of massage and relaxation. The art was gorgeous and the environment felt like you were in a loft in Europe. Great gift for an anniversary! When sharing with My sister, she thought "their must be body fluids all over this place" which I never thought about until after. The vibes are more romantic and relaxing than sleezy. Maybe people do use this for that? But I didn't want to think about it. Two hours is just enough for a Swedish massage, half hour in the sauna while you're filling up the tub and a nice jet bath to talk and connect. Longer than that would be nice to eat some cheese and have some wine sitting by the fire. They match Groupon prices too! Great experience. read more

This was the most amazing experience just for the massage alone. The vibe of the art studio was magical. I got a massage and then had tea and soaked in the big jetted tub and felt so relaxed. I only wish there was an option for solo massage and I kept wanting to ask my massage therapist (Joe, literally the best) if he had his own practice. I would 10/10 recommend this place to anyone. read more

Little Red Day Spa was so refreshing and relaxing. What a great atmosphere for a couples massage. Check in was a breeze.

The owner Jeff saw us on the way out and gave us a quick tour of his facility. Thank you Jeff and your team. read more

Little Red Day Spa is hands down the best place for a couple's massage. While it can be a little spendy, you can usually find a deal on Groupon, which makes it totally worth it. We got the "Art Room" and it was romantic to the core and worth every $. The room itself is massive with very high ceilings, a giant jacuzzi, a giant dining table with place settings, a canopy "resting" bed on the 2nd floor, and a steam room that didn't seem to work very well. Reservations were hard to come by and I had to make it 3 weeks in advance for a Sunday evening slot. Since we were the last reservation for the night, they allowed us to stay as long we liked, "even if it's until 2 AM". The massage itself was okay, I've had better. There's another place that I go to with heated massage tables and I would have liked that given the price point. However, the point of coming here is for the romance. Overall, I highly recommend this place and also recommend the splurge on the art room suite. It's very nice and I would even come back to do it with a friend. read more

What an AMAZING experience! Had a massage booked and a two hour room time slot. The full body massage was incredible. Took a nice bath after the massage, dumped in plenty of moisturizing bath salts, and chilled in the sitting area for a bit.

This has to be the biggest disappointment of 2019! I am really sorry to say but this was a most odd experience. Uncomfortable situation for sure. After checking this place out online for at least six months we finally visited for our nine year anniversary. We being my husband and I. This place is not cheap, if you've ever checked out their website you'll know. It's actually very expensive to book a suite here. But we finally made the decision to purchase an almost 3 hour visit. Denise at the front desk was a very kind and gracious host! She made us feel welcomed from the start. When you enter the building there is complimentary wine and a mini gift shop. After you are check in there is a minimal wait before being escorted to your suite. We booked the Art Suite. Let's just say the Art is highly sexual but abnormal (for us.) The suite itself was nice and we loved the copper tub. However, we are a heterosexual married couple. The Art made us feel be very uncomfortable! Do not open the panels on the wall. Behind the naked adult man and young boy, there are very graphic and inappropriate paintings! Just gag worthy! For example, a deconstructed penis for one. Then secondly some kind of triple male orgy. I had to be specific so readers do not think I am exaggerating or worst, being homophobic! And then of course more naked men on other walls. It was a very uncomfortable vibe. Lastly, I got a massage alright! A very erotic massage that crossed the line a few times. When the masseuse finished I was oiled up like a turkey and feeling violated! My husband on the other hand had a terrible massage. He was very tense and dry afterward. The total opposite. Man it's a lot of money to spend to be so disappointed read more

Little Red Day Spa - Checking in for relaxation - Day Spas Near Me - Seattle, Washington

My husband and I got married in July, and my mom and her boyfriend gifted us an evening in the Art Suite at Little Red Day Spa. It literally took us to the DAY it expired to use it (lol, whoops) but I'm SO glad we didn't let the opportunity slip through our fingers! The lobby itself leaves a lot to imagination. I had zero idea what we were in for with the dark lighting, eclectic art, and free wine and chocolates. The girl at the check in desk was super nice and personable and made conversation with us while we waited for the previous appointment to end. Once it was our turn to enter the Art Suite, I was SHOCKED. It is HUGE! There's literally a loft area, a giant jacuzzi tub, a walk in sauna... You name it! Even a little kitchenette with a dining area for you to enjoy food. PRO TIP - You're able to bring in ANY food and alcohol you want for your stay. Our gift certificate allowed us 2 hours in the Art Suite - one hour of couples massage followed by free use of the room. Since we were the last appointment of the night (10 pm) they literally just let you stay in the room for however long you want, and just shut the door behind you when you leave for the night. I wanted to say we stayed an extra hour or so. It's no extra charge to do this, so I highly recommend booking the last appointment of the night so you don't have to rush through the experience. The couples massage was phenomenal. Quite possibly the best massage I've ever had, actually. They asked what we liked/didn't like/areas they should avoid, and I told my LMT that I just wanted to relax. Nothing too intense, and didn't want to be in pain the next day. He listened, because it was amazing! After they left, we got to take advantage of the jacuzzi, sauna, and relax with a couple drinks before departing. Little Red Day Spa is owned by an artist and all of the art you see in here is his. Pretty cool. I guess it also doubles as a meeting spot for a few different clubs/communities on the weekends, but I don't know much about that (just heard through the grapevine). All in all, I highly recommend checking out Little Red Day Spa for a romantic evening. It's perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or a really good "just because" gift. read more

What an absolutely amazing massage studio!! I told my partner "I want to LIVE here" haha. We booked the painter's suite as a treat for our 8 yr anniv. We were thoroughly satisfied with the hour-long couples massage and the amenities available, like the raw-edge maple tub for soaking. We ended up ordering a bottle of Pinot Grigio to our room and enjoyed the crisp white while pilfering through the owner's personal art collection. This place is so rustic, cozy, and intimate, I could stay there forever. What an inspiring space. It was the highlight of our trip. I would 11/10 book a couples getaway here again!! read more

A must go spa for couples. We took the tent suite. Size of the room was just perfect and very cozy. Beautifully decorated and cozily lit up. Had beautiful intimate paintings. Both bath tub and day bed were great and neatly tucked in. We ordered cheese and hummus plate and loved it. Prices of the snacks and drinks were quite reasonable. Massages were also great. My husband and I loved the whole experience. Would highly recommend and we will go back to this place soon. read more

My boyfriend and I bought this for Valentine's Day! We read the reviews. Most were pretty funny. Some a bit prudish. It's a spa. You get naked or close to. And professionals touch you. The art is tasteful! The room was fun and relaxing. My massage was great. My masseuse used a different technique than I was used to, but very effective. My boyfriends massage was a bit less amazing. We had 80 min massages and another 80 min to relax in the room. That being said, it is set up for romance and 'fun'. We brought wine, cheese and crackers. Sat in the copper tub, took some time in the sauna and shower My only beef was the room could have been a bit cleaner. read more

I LOVED it here! My boyfriend and I got a groupon and it was an incredible experience. Right now, they are matching groupon prices so I would suggest purchasing directly from their website since they are a small business. As far as covid restrictions go- we felt very safe. Their website details all cleaning procedures and restrictions and you can see them in effect when you arrive. Our masseuses wore masks and so did we (while they were in the room). The experience itself is lovely. For the massage, we had conversations about injuries, pressure, and overall preferences and were matched with the appropriate massause. I LOVED my relaxing massage and my boyfriend got a deep tissue massage that he really appreciated. Absolutely amazing. For the spa time, we were in the Tent Suite. It was spacious, had a lovely kitchen area, and exactly what we needed. We had some wine (there is a fridge but no microwave so bring room temp snacks) and enjoyed our time in the tub, steam shower, and sauna. I felt like this suite was the best bang for our buck but think I will try the Art Suite next time the occasion arises. The ambiance is incredible and we felt so taken care of. It was the perfect romantic evening. read more

I've known about this spa for awhile. I will say I did not think it would be worth the money. How wrong I was! My partner booked a couples massage in the art room for our anniversary. It was easy to find and blew us away from the second we walked inside. The receptionist has to be the kindest person we've met. She got us in early and let us stay as long as we liked because no one was scheduled after us. Our massage therapists were Apple and Joe. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE. The lighting, the music, the art, the wine, the space... perfection. I would give this ten starts if I could. Words and pictures do it no justice. My one complaint is the bell we used to let our therapist know we were ready. I prefer not to use bells to summon humans. Made me feel like an entitled jerk. I get why they needed it but ew lol. Still, I recommend this ten times over and can't wait to book every room and gift it to someone else. read more

Such a romantic, relaxing, art-filled experience! Like honeymooning inside your own private art gallery. My husband treated us to a spa day here for my birthday, and we already want to come back! He booked the Stone Carver's suite, where we had a couples massage and about another hour to enjoy the suite's amenities. As we entered the suite, we walked through an art gallery of provocative paintings and sculptures, which set the tone for our evening. If you're easily offended by nudity, then this might not be the spa for you. Our massage therapists were wonderful and tailored their approach to our needs (me: deep tissue, him: relaxing). We then had about an hour to relax in the suite, admire the vintage decor, enjoy snacks (they let you bring your own food and drink!), sit in the sauna and draw a bath. We finished by sipping tea and walking around our private art gallery. If we could, we would've stayed longer! The staff and the settings were all clean and accommodating. read more

Went here with my boyfriend for our anniversary and it was amazing! I saw a deal on Groupon and bought it as an anniversary gift. I booked the Art room which came with a one hour massage and one hour of spa time. When we first arrived we were greeted right away and offered a complimentary bottle of wine while we waited in the lobby. Once the room was ready our hostess brought us in and gave us a small tour of the room. We were impressed with the size and ambiance of the room. There was a sauna, jetted tub, and a tea house. Before our hostess left she mentioned that since we were the last guests of the night we could stay longer than our scheduled time! When it was time for our massage we spoke with our masseuses and they asked us questions about our preferences. This was my boyfriend and I's first massage and it was very relaxing! After our massage we had the entire suite to ourselves and got to explore the space. We used the clay mask and bath salts they provided and relaxed in the jetted tub. We also took advantage of the sauna and had a couple drinks before we left. Our experience at this spa was perfect and would recommend coming here for a romantic getaway. read more

Overall, this was a nice experience if you're looking for a relaxing way to reconnect in your relationship. PROS: very romantic calm vibe, staff was very professional and helpful, our massages were nice, the room is huge for just the two of us, the open shower was awesome, sauna was a lovely touch, there are thoughtful touches put into a lot of aspects of this experience (lighting options, variety of spaces to use, staff gave tours so we would know how to use everything etc), we arrived a little early and they took us into our room, gave us a tour and then allowed us to hang out while we waited for our MTs which was nice, the cold water and tea was a nice touch. CONS: lots of fabric covered furniture that could definitely not be cleaned as well as it prob should be, the rugs need to be replaced ASAP (), the wood working is questionable in a lot of places, the upstairs bed area was sketchy (very rickety, creaked and shook with very little movement from us, to the point where we went up, looked around and went right back down), the "stored art" that maybe was supposed to add to the aesthetic made the space feel unfinished/like an attic, the art was just a little too much (I love bodies and sensuality, but this felt more like obsession over white womens' bodies and it felt gross), robes were only size S and size M, we did not get to use the bathtub because they said it takes 30mins to fill! So we wouldn't have enough time left for the other areas (I was super bummed cause this part seemed so lovely) Overall we enjoyed ourselves, despite the cons. It was a lovely kid free way to reconnect while celebrating our anniversary. Will we be back? Probably not, but would definitely like to find something similar that felt a little more clean, put together and up to date. 3 stars for the staff, time to reconnect, shower and sauna! read more

My friends got a Groupon for my partner and I to have a cute date here and I was pleasantly surprised. We got the tent suite (second smallest of all the 'suites') and that included a large copper bathtub, shower, bathroom, small twin size bed, sauna, dining room table, and a fridge. We're allowed to bring our own food and drinks to eat in the room after our massages and that's exactly what we did! You get a tea kettle, plates and silverware, and bottles of water to start. I would say the massages were not quite what I was expecting, but I didn't dislike it either. Felt a bit 'manhandled' but my body feels good now so it wasn't a 'bad' thing. I'd say that if you want a real shower to get rid of all the oil they use on you, you should bring your own shampoo/soap cause the stuff that they provide doesn't cut it. The other thing I would recommend bringing is slippers. I'm a bit shocked to find that they didn't have any disposable slippers here. It's definitely more comfortable to walk around in slippers than your shoes especially if you wanna use the amenities. The floor didn't feel nearly clean enough to walk barefoot comfortably. Overall, not a terrible spot, but not sure I'd pay full price. Groupon ftw! read more

Overall I am very happy with my husband and I's experience at the Little Red Day Spa yesterday. We had reserved the Sky Suite but we were given a choice to upgrade to the Moroccan Suite at no charge, since it also happened to be available on our scheduled day and time. We appreciated the gesture and we decided to go with the Moroccan Suite. It isn't really our style of decor but we liked the thoughtful style touches, loved the dim lighting emanating from multiple well-placed lanterns, and got excited about the large coppery metal tub. We also watched the movie "Casablanca" when we dated prior to getting married, so the Moroccan flair of this particular suite reminded us of that time. The small lobby is lovely, with large comfortable chairs, tea, books, and romantic, slightly quirky decor. I briefly perused a Gustav Klimt book while waiting. Ashley checked us in, and she was warm and welcoming, with a big smile and a cheery vibe. As a graduate of the Port Townsend School of Massage, I know a thing or two about massage, and I thought my massage was very good. I was happy with the level of pressure, the variety and type of strokes, the attention to client preferences, and the quality of touch. I felt very relaxed during and after my massage. I thought the peppermint aromatherapy was very refreshing. They use grapeseed oil, a great emollient choice because it is natural and no one is likely to have allergies or negative reactions to it. My husband said he likes receiving my massages better, but he did enjoy his massage and it was a very nice feeling for both of us to be receiving relaxing massages at the same time. This was our first couples massage experience together, and I am happy with it. The carpet was filthy (or at least it looked filthy, it possibly had many dark stains on it that do not come out), but I'd brought 2 pairs of disposable spa slippers with us (just in case) so it wasn't a huge issue for us. Some people don't care about cleanliness of floors at all but we do, so if you're more like us, you may want to invest the $4 or $5 in a couple pairs of disposable spa slippers to bring with you. If anyone at the spa reads these reviews, I suggest a carpet clean or a carpet replacement. I also suggest considering investing in disposable spa slippers and making them available for clients for their time in the suite. I think it'd be a nice touch. The carpet issue isn't worth taking a full star off of my review. Other than the carpet, I consider this to have been a 5-star experience. Both my husband and I easily get distracted from connecting/reconnecting with each other when we're at home (due to so many things to do in the house and in the yard), and we don't have the time or the budget for a vacation this year, so we've recently been exploring small ways to feel like we're on vacation while staying local and taking only 1 - 3 hours out of our day. This spa experience was perfect to put a little bit of a vacation feeling into the middle of our week. We felt refreshed, relaxed, and reconnected during our time there. The Spa offers 4 membership levels at excellent discounts for regulars: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. We are considering the Silver membership level. We'd booked the 2-hour time bracket for our experience yesterday and we'd book the 3-hour time bracket next time. We feel that 3 hours would be a better amount of time for us to spend in this lovely environment. One last note: there are stairs in this spa. A LOT of stairs. I think we climbed three (3) steep flights of stairs to get to our top-floor suite. My bff from high school is a former United States Marine, tough as nails and crazy fit, and I went to meet her 3 days ago for what I thought would be a leisurely stroll along the beach. Yeah. It wasn't. Blisters are all over the soles of my feet and my inner thighs are red and raw from chafing. As a result, I took these spa stairs slowly. The stairs would not hinder me from returning. However, if stairs are not relaxing for you or if you have mobility issues, this may not be the place for you. read more

We went for the couples massage class, and it was great! We had requested the tent room, and were just checking in when the owner, Jeff, emerged with a big smile. He had something he was excited to show us about the room. So, we trailed behind him, past a cooler full of wine and other beverages, and snacks for purchase (The wine was definitely reasonably priced). When we arrived at the door to the tent room, there was a large beautiful handmade wooden tub (From the 'before' pictures, it appears to have replaced a brass tub). They had just installed it, and we would the first to try it out. It was fantastic too. There's something about sitting on a wooden surface (even if it's polyurethaned), that feels 'warmer' and softer, both on body and soul. We thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm sure the brass tub was nice, but I'm glad we got the opportunity with the wooden one. Ann Marie was our instructor for the class, and gave an excellent tutorial, from actual massage techniques, to body mechanics, and supplies. She was able to answer all our questions, and was comfortable, and encouraging in her instruction. The place is full of fantastic art, and has a deep sense of charm, warmth, comfort, and inviting. And while the prices feel a bit steep, they're honoring Groupon pricing right now, without even having the groupon. Once you break it down, that's actually quite a reasonable price for the experience. Great job Jeff and team! Thank you! read more

Oh boy, where to start with this review...my husband brought me for my birthday, around 10 pm. It's a nice little place, and I thought we were just going to have a small room with a Jacuzzi...but we got the artists studio, which is a multilevel, crazy spa. It's got a salt/sauna room, your own bathroom, a Jacuzzi and an ancient, antique Chinese bed for...you know...reconnecting. but that's if you're brave enough to go up the stairs. I enjoyed the body scrub and mud, but it left our skin kinda dry. Over all, I enjoyed the intimacy and privacy, but have to wonder how clean it is between couples...I'd recommend it to anyone looking to spend some romantic time in a brand new experience. read more
