My wife got me a massage for our anniversary. I showed up 10 minutes early for my scheduled appt…read morewith Tatiana. About 5 minutes after my scheduled start time the receptionist says Tatiana is running late but she will be there in a few minutes. 10 minutes later the receptionist says that Tatiana is not answering her calls and tells me my appointment is cancelled with no compensation. Ironic considering this is what they send in their confirmation email "Out of courtesy to our staff and to allow time for other clients to schedule, we ask for 24-hours' notice for appointment cancellations: - If an appointment is late cancelled up to 3 hours prior to your appointment, your credit card on file will be charged $60 for 50-minute sessions, $80 for 80-minute sessions and $110 for 110-minute sessions. - If an appointment is late cancelled with less than 3 hours' notice, or if you do not arrive for your appointment (no-show), your credit card will be charged the full session fee. **All cancellation fees are a courtesy to the massage therapists. These fees ensure that your therapist is properly compensated for their time. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation." I guess the courtesy only works one way. I would avoid this place

Terrible massage and then forced to tip extra…read more Where to even start, horrible or no technique for the massage at all it was just random rubbing not intentional or intuitive. Most of the time she used no pressure and just grazed her hands over me, i dont actually know how someone could give a massage that felt so bad no only was it extremely light pressure somehow it was painful. She would be tugging and knocking and all sorts of things to compensate for the no pressure. It also felt like her hands were just going over my body no finger work or skill al. Also both me and my friend felt like the next day we felt worse than before our massage, back/neck pain wise like they used very improper technique The worst part: what completely took me out of spa mode. I tipped 20% and they demanded i tip more, it was very awkward and uncomfortable and i felt pressured to tip more even though we hated our massage.

We had 4 people in our party and they were able to accommodate all of us at the same time. Unfortunately I didn't get my masseuse's name but she was fabulous. Soft but firm hands. She asked several times if I was ok or if I needed softer or harder pressure. I recommend paying a little extra for the essential oils. Just a side note if you're paying by card it was $3 fee. If we're in Santa Cruz again I will definitely come back.

HOLY MOLY! I've been here about 5-10 times and every time is amazing but my 60 min Thai light with Clara tonight blew my mind. I feel like every massage I've had in my life up until this point(and I've had over 50) has been a scam. It genuinely felt like a pressure wash for all my stress and knots. Every stroke was a rhythmic dance, not a second of wasted movement or mumbo jumbo. Legit I feel like she was preforming at the world championships of massages. If I had a demons in my body, I assure you they have left the building. I should apologize for the sounds I was making to be honest. I'm not sure if I was in severe pain, immense pleasure or somewhere in that special place in between. I was muttering to myself "oh my god, oh my god, oh my god." There is a time and place for overpriced, white robe, hot tea massages and this ain't it. If you want to experience the best god damn massage of your life do not sleep on Best Thai Spa. Also warning, this is not for a first time massage it is intense.

The tub was worn down so you can see the stains, however, it was clean. It may be off putting for some ppl, just fyi. It was very quiet and peaceful with a lovely view. The sauna was also a nice touch. Wish there was a cold plunge, but we used the shower instead for a cold rinse. I have an anxious mind and it's very hard for me to relax, I didn't achieve it here, but was able to calm my nerves just a bit. My bf loved it and was fully able to zen out and enjoyed the sauna. The teas were nice pairing. Afterwards we had our massages. The masseuses looked like students, but overall they did a nice job, not the best, but it was calming. Unsure if they are certified. We have had various massages & I have my go to. These ones were just okay. My masseuse was kind and made sure the pressure was okay for me. I didn't get a hot towel afterwards to wipe the oil/lotion off so I was left sticky when we went out for dinner in DT SC. I think because of social media I was itching to try this place. A bit on the pricier side for the quality, however, more affordable compared to other Bay Area places. Staff were nice, street parking. Pay to park.

The receptionist accommodated a last minute add to the spa room and easily added one more person. No one got massages and only used the spa room. The room came equipped with bench, hot tub, sauna room, and hot/cold shower. And the room can easily fit 4 women. The room also faced a garden that had a stream with koi fish swimming in them. Very serene. It was $40 per person to use the spa room for 50 minutes. Staff would ring a bell to indicate 15 min remaining. 50 min is a short time to enjoy the room. Overall, it was a good experience just short.

I went in with seriously distressed shoulders stiffened by 6 months in a cervical collar, the result of a broken neck and subsequent fusion surgery. I asked Vanessa to feel her way through the difficult areas and do whatever she thought would give me relief and comfort. She did just that and I left feeling better than I had since long before my accident. I'll surely be back there to maintain and extend the areas of comfort and flexibility that Vanessa has provided.
