Amateur hour. The spa claimed I had an appointment for a very expensive facial that I did not book. It was months in the past when I went in today for an appointment that I booked online and that they canceled JUST before I came in. They told me to that to keep my appointment or to book any future spa appointments, I had to pay over $220 for the missed appointment (the one never even made). You heard right - - not a $50 no-show fee, not 25% for a no-show. They wanted the entire amount upfront before I could have my next appointment. It was absolutely outrageous. The one facial I had was decent (I went in for foot reflexology today), but the aesthetician was pushy about me making future appointments. I would avoid and head down to DC where the spas are more professional and customer-centric. I've been to spas all over the world and am a very chill customer, and I've never been treated like that. The moves of a desperate business. read more

Excellent massage! Corry hit all the spots that needed work on my body. The ambience is suited to having a great massage! Strongly recommended for a through massage! read more

I had my first visit yesterday for the Revival package, which included a hydroluxe massage and osmosis facial. My masseuse Elle did a wonderful job; it felt like the waves of the ocean were gently but firmly massaging me! Her motions felt very skilled. I also appreciated that she asked about what kind of pressure I preferred before we started. I highly recommend her. Chau did my facial and again, a wonderful experience. I was surprised (but shouldn't have been, given her years of experience) that immediately she could tell that my skin used to be oily and that I was not a stranger to retinol. She did a deep exfoliating treatment on me and extracted an extremely stubborn and deep blackhead in my cheek that I'd had for months. I am a skincare nerd and even though I use exfoliating products regularly, she said that this treatment was more effective than over the counter or store-bought products. I believe her! My skin not only felt hydrated and glowy the rest of the day, but honestly felt so clean, soft, and kind of... lighter? Because it had been purged of all the heavy dirt and dead skin, I guess! Needless to say I've already booked my next maintenance appointment in three months. read more

100% recommend! Nat did a great job. The receptionist is so welcoming. Everyone there has a great hospitality! Has become my favorite place to relax! read more

First time my husband and I went here and we loved it! The staff was friendly and very knowledgeable. I got a facial and my husband got a massage. We felt so relaxed when leaving, we will definitely be coming back! read more

I had perhaps the best massage ever with Deleigh at the Retreat. I get routine massages and I found my new person that I'll return to regularly now. She listened to my request as to what I'm looking for in a massage. The pressure I requested was spot on. I felt so much better after visiting Deleigh at the Retreat! Looking forward to my next visit! read more

This spa is tucked away in a business center. It was my first time and wasn't sure what to expect. I chose the Osmosis Medi Facial and my person was Chau. She was great! She was knowledgeable and let me know how to care for my skin. It was a good conversation asking me about what products I use and what my routine while examining my face so she can provide the facial that works for my skin. If you are looking for a facial here, definitely ask for Chau! read more

I've had several facials at this spa with Jade and she is amazing!! She takes her time, is very accommodating, listens to my needs, and my face is so soft and glowing when she is finished!! I highly recommend for any of your spa needs... She never disappoints read more

The Retreat - Getting pampered by Jade - Skin Care Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

My number 1 place to go for massages and facials. I've been here at least four times and have not been disappointed, not once by any of the masseuses or by the facial treatment. Pricing is a little high if you choose a bundle (facial plus massage) but it's honestly worth the self care and the staff are amazing. read more

Recently went for a deep tissue massage with Natalie and an osmosis facial with Chau. I was really impressed with the level of service provided. Natalie worked out my shoulder knots and Chau took the time to understand my skin concerns and offer recommendations on my skin care regime and explain the purpose of each product she was applying. It was clear they both have many years of experience. I enjoyed it so much that I've already scheduled my next appointment. read more

This spa is beautiful, homey, clean, and aesthetically pleasing! On top of that, the front desk person is so sweet, accommodating, friendly, and professional. I have gone for three services with Chau Nguyen; Milk & Honey Facial with microdermabrasion, Clarifying back Treatment, and waxing! I was so pleased by each visit. Chau gives so many good tips and took the time to review the ingredients of my current skin care routine to ensure best results after my facial and clarifying back treatment. I am seeing great results in the health and glow of my skin both of my face and back. I recommend these treatments specifically if you suffer from acne! They will tailor facials to your needs and concerns. I have already booked follow-up appointments for the services I've received and I honestly can't wait to keep on coming! Don't hesitate to book with The Retreat for all of your self care needs! read more

I booked for 3 people including myself for a birthday spa day.All of us were impressed.Great service. The front desk was very knowledgeable and helpful.Massages were great and my facial with Jade was outstanding.She was very professional.Her consult before the facial was very thorough .My skin is glowing.

Great, clean spa. Easy to book and overall a great service! I have gotten many facials here and they have all been fantastic!!

I had no joke the best massage of my life here! Wonderful service and facility, and will absolutely be returning. read more

Natalie provides the best massage in the area. She listens to your ailments and gives you a perfectly tailored massage.

10/10 recommend the Retreat and especially Sabrina Menefee for massages! My husband and I both have gone here several times and have always asked for Sabrina. We love her so much because she truly meets you where you are at and can do it all. My husband prefers very intense pressure, Deep Tissue massages while I like a gentle Swedish and she can do both! She is also the first therapist I've had who can work out knots without it being crazy painful. The Retreat is warm, welcoming and relaxing. I also love that they have a "silent" therapy option, so if you don't want to talk to your therapist, you can just ask for that. Book at the Retreat for a true escape :) read more

Such a nice and clean space. Cory and Chau were so sweet and have the sweetest touch when they do their work. Cory gave the best sweet escape massage ever. You just feel so relaxed. Chau did a great job on my facial. She's very knowledgeable and has years of experience. She really wants you to have the best skin ever. She's so gentle when she's doing your facial. She asks about your skin type as well. I really recommend going here! read more

Had my first session with Cory and it was wonderful! She was very personable and the space itself was inviting and serene. And you're the only 2 in the whole space, so from a covid safety perspective, I felt relaxed and unworried. My massage was maybe the best I've ever had. It was relaxing but also worked out the muscles I asked her to pay special attention to. I also loved all the different elements like the hot stones and the heated bed. I will absolutely be returning! read more

DO NOT GO HERE. The front desk lady is rude, and they will take advantage of what you pay for. I paid for a 90 minute massage and only got a 60 minute massage. They don't care about you or your experience they only want your money. Their services are very overpriced for what they are also. read more

I just received the best facial ever at The Retreat Day Spa in Fairfax VA! Cory Hunter, owner/practitioner, is an expert in her field-- committed to wellness and total relaxation! Cory's spa is as gorgeous as it is immaculate! She is easy to talk to and provided me with lots of treatment options-- products are all natural plus she includes a luxurious shoulder & foot massage as part of the facial service. Corey's Retreat is my new go-to place for FAbuLOUS facials and massages --a paradise "retreat" in Fairfax--who knew?!! read more

So, I usually don't leave reviews but felt it was time to change that. Had a 75 min swedish/therapeutic massage and a milk & honey facial (from a FB special) today. This was probably one of the best massages and facials I have had in a very long time. Unlike many therapists and aestheticians, Cory took the time to listen to my past and present concerns, and future desires. This attention to detail, her unique techniques, her no-rush approach to delivering a great service, all provided a customized relaxation experience that is a rare find today! I got the sense she takes great pride in her work and strives to deliver the best. Highly recommend her! I hope to become a regular. :) Thanks Cory! read more

The Retreat is simply amazing!! I had a 75 min deep tissue massage and Cory knew exactly what I needed. My shoulders have never felt better. Her spaces are calming, relaxing and beautifully decorated. Cory is such a professional and her prices are very reasonable too. I will definitely be going back. Highly recommend!! You'll love the way you feel. read more

Wow! Simply incredible! Felt like time stood still and I had an out of body experience Cory was terrific, explained everything and offered different options based on skin type and preferences. She was very thorough and systematically worked through each part of the spa package.They have so many options on their website it was hard to decide but I went with rejuvenate package so I could try a little of everything and WOW I definitely will be going back for more! The spa was very clean, nicely decorated and easy to locate. read more

I treated myself to an early birthday gift and created a package of services - deep tissue massage, milk and honey facial, and reflexology. Very pleased with all services and will be returning! read more

Natalie gave me the best Swedish massage I think I have ever had! She is very talented and has wonderful technique. She communicates very openly about your needs and customizes the treatment to accommodate your wishes. I felt very well taken care of and very relaxed. I can't wait to go back!! read more

Cory is amazing! I go for a massage every 4 weeks and always feel amazing when she is finished. She does a great job working on your specific needs each visit. read more

Cory is by far one of the most talented and knowledgable clinicians I have had the pleasure of working with. I have had a two level spinal fusion due to spondylolisthesis, complicated by scoliosis and a recently diagnosed sacral stress fracture. My quality of life has been zero to none. Cory has been able to assist me in getting relief from the constant muscle spasms occurring as I go through the medical process of MRI's, Cat Scans and diagnosis to determine next steps. Because my condition is chronic and progressive I have been utilizing the expertise of a massage therapist for years in NJ but recently moved to the NOVA area and needed to find a clinician of equal quality. I found her in Cory. If I could give her 10 stars I would. read more

Great Massage. Corey is a master and great at listening to your aches and pains. Great techniques

Is there a six star review, please? I've had many deep tissue massages over the years. Cory's was superior in every way because she pays close attention to what you say and to what she notices. After three massages, I am pain free, walking taller, and more able to do all of the exercises I love. She also offers a wide range of spa services - you can try out different things or find great gifts for family or friends. A+++++++ read more
