Floating is a thing. Apparently it's been a thing. And it took me way too long to figure this out…read moreand then take the plunge. I chose this location for my first time floating because it isn't a "pod," it is an actual room--and dang, was I impressed. Service: top notch. The two ladies I encountered were efficient and down to earth, plus super nice and made me feel at ease. Very professional. Facility: Spotless about sums it up. I was super pleased with how clean it was, from the lobby area, to the halls, to the actual private float suites. Float suite: Holy moly. It's just so...nice. Very nice shower, instructions, well prepared prior to your arrival in the room, and just all around soothing. Much better than what I would envision a pod to be. Floating: so, it was my first time, and I booked a 60 minute. The woman who showed me around offered to keep the music playing softly so my mind wouldn't wander too much. I appreciated this gesture and took her recommendation. I wish I had read more tips prior, such as ways to meditate while in the room. The entire time was insanely peaceful, but I know I could have been more at peace had I known how to approach the entire experience. I really loved the float suite-I kept the twinkle lights on at first but then turned them off and found the complete darkness to be what I needed, and I think it just enhanced the entire experience even more. I felt great and so refreshed after; slept so well afterwards (it was a 8pm float), and even a couple days later, have been more well rested than I have been in a long time. My mental health is also seemingly improved, which I love. I used a promo code to try it out, but now I am planning on getting a membership. I don't have time to do it too often, but once a month is easily done and will be a nice break. Try it! You won't regret it!

No one was answering the phone and when someone finally came to the door I was told I had to wait due to technical difficulties/phone lines being down. Once there the check in process was next to nothing, I did the paperwork online so all they needed was my name. The facility itself was fairly small, but the rooms were nice. My room had a locking door, float tank and a shower with shampoo/conditioner/soap. They give you a bathmat, a towel, two face cloths as well as ear plugs, a makeup wipe and a few other things you might need. They give you 15 minutes before to shower and 15 minutes after your allotted float time. They claim the rooms are soundproof but I did hear little bangs and noises of the business center. I wish they provided personal combs, but they do have community hair brushes and blow dryers to use. Overall it was a great experience, and the woman working there was very nice. They give you a few choices of music/white noise/sounds to get you in the zone and bring you back. I would definitely try it again as by the time I got completely relaxed and "sensory deprived" my time was up

So, I can't wait for the gift to come my way. On my visit, I checked in, was taken to the room, everything was explained, and then it was me and the floatation device. I undressed, jumped in and meditated for an hour or so. It was very interesting to stay floating for so long. Everything is dark, it is a very different type of experience. When the bells rang to announce the end of my session, I opened up the device, took a shower and went to the front. I chatted a little bit with the person at the desk, and then I left. Like I said, I'm waiting for my gift card...

It's all about relaxing and allowing your body and mind to drift away in the salt water. There's enough salt that you will float while in the tanks. They have two types of tanks I prefer the clamshell one so my husband usually goes in the other tank. When you're done you can take a shower in the same room you float in. It has a lock so no worries about anyone walking in while you're in there. There were a couple loose tiles in the showers so I knocked a star off. Certainly a unique experience that I would recommend trying. If you really want to have a relaxing time I'd recommend getting a massage prior and then doing a 90 min float. It's my favorite way to float. Just make sure you drink water before and after the float.

I showed up early and chatted a little with the man behind the desk about what to expect. He led me to the float room, instructed me on how to use the equipment, and left me to... well... float. I stripped down and hopped into the float pod and the lights dimmed until they were off. The inside of the float pod has a soft light that lets you see just enough to get yourself situated. When I laid down, the experience was like floating on the most gentle, warmest lake you've ever been on. My ears went under the water, but my face stayed above the water. I could only hear my heart beating, but eventually, that faded away until I was just silent. It took me about 5 minutes before I was brave enough to turn off the pod light. When I did, the darkness freaked me out a little. I turned the light back on, gave it a few more minutes, and tried again. My brain really struggled with having zero senses engaged. It caused me to hear things that weren't there, and to "touch" things that weren't there. Not bad things mind you, just the sensation of touching the side of the tank, or the sound of a bump. After about 20 minutes, all of that faded away and there was just nothing. I just was... The first 25 minutes felt like 25 minutes. The next 35 minutes felt like 5 minutes. All of a sudden, the water in the pod started to cycle and my 60 minutes was up. I went back a few weeks later and tried it again. The first 5 minutes felt like 5 minutes, and the next 55 minutes felt like 5 minutes. It was really weird. Both times I exited the pod feeling that euphoria that you typically feel after having a massage. Your body is rested because it's just been floating in salt water for an hour, and your mind is rested because you turned it off for an hour. It's a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it for anyone.

This time, he was in a more open tub rather than the enclosed pod, which he preferred--it gave him more space and comfort. He said the service was great, but the main downside was the lack of ambience. He missed the relaxing, spa-like atmosphere that made the experience in St. Augustine so memorable. That's really what held this one back a bit. Unfortunately, I haven't found any local spots that offer floats within a full spa setting like they do in St. Augustine. Still, he enjoyed the overall experience.

Yelp Review I rarely…read morewrite negative reviews, but I feel obligated to share this experience because I don't want another guest, especially another woman of color, to leave feeling the way I did. I originally booked this appointment after attending Bella Collina's Girls' Night Out event. The event itself was wonderful, and the spa offered special pricing if services were booked that evening. My mom and I both booked treatments, so I was genuinely looking forward to this visit. Instead, I experienced one disappointment after another. From the moment I called for directions after my GPS brought me through the wrong entrance, the tone of the interaction felt cold and unwelcoming. When I arrived, I immediately noticed the difference between Bella Collina and other luxury spas I have visited. There was no warm greeting, no orientation to the facilities, and no one escorting guests from place to place. I was simply pointed toward the locker room and later told where to go for my treatment. Those details may seem small, but they are exactly what separates true luxury hospitality from an average spa. The interaction with my massage therapist made me especially uncomfortable. She asked whether I wanted the complimentary scalp massage. I explained that I was wearing a wig and would prefer not to have it. Instead of accepting my answer, she continued asking me the same question multiple times. As a Black woman, that exchange felt deeply uncomfortable. Black women wear wigs and other protective styles for many reasons, and I have never before had someone fixate on my hairstyle during a spa treatment. Whether intentional or not, the repeated questioning demonstrated a lack of cultural competence and left me feeling othered rather than cared for. The massage itself was unfortunately the worst I have ever had. Instead of relaxing, I became increasingly tense. I found myself asking to stretch throughout the session because my muscles actually felt tighter as the massage continued. That has never happened to me before. The facial was excellent, and I want to acknowledge that. My esthetician was knowledgeable, professional, and gave me thoughtful advice about my skincare goals. She was the highlight of my visit. Unfortunately, the problems continued afterward. I asked if I could pay before changing into my swimsuit so I could enjoy the spa pool, but I was told no because someone would have to walk me outside. After changing, I returned wearing my swimsuit underneath the spa robe and was immediately told I could not wear the robe outside. At that point, it felt like every interaction centered around another rule or another correction. Instead of feeling welcomed or accommodated, I felt policed. Hospitality should make guests feel comfortable, not constantly worried that they are doing something wrong. Eventually, I decided to leave instead of using the pool because I simply did not feel welcome anymore. The most disappointing part of this experience was not just the poor massage or the lack of luxury service. It was leaving feeling that the staff lacked the cultural awareness necessary to make every guest feel respected and included. That feeling stayed with me long after I left. Bella Collina markets itself as a luxury destination. Luxury is not just beautiful buildings or expensive treatments. Luxury is exceptional hospitality, thoughtful service, and making every guest feel comfortable and valued. Sadly, that was not my experience.
