Okay, so my experience of the spa is not as bad as Linda M's! In fact, I am pleased to say that I had a great time here and what made it more special was that my bf had surprised me with a Couples Massage and HydraTherapy Pool experience.
When we first arrived, we were greeted by a friendly hostess. We were then led to our change rooms and because it wasn't busy, I had the whole room to myself. There are lockers and keys. I noticed there was a sauna, shower room, and one toilet (so hence, if it is busy, beware). Also, I noticed that there were sample-sized shampoos, soaps, conditioners, and bottles of water for you to use - complimentary! This is great if you are not staying at this hotel, but want to change, you do not have to bring toiletries.
Once my bf and I were out of the change room, we were led to seats which had a great and expansive window view of the falls. I just sat there mesmerized. There was tranquil spa music and I dozed off...soon to be awakened by our massage therapists. My masseuse was AMAZING! She kneaded all my sore spots (on my back) and did not talk. She went right into the massage session. We also had our feet wrapped in wax (and then put in a plastic bag)...that I could have done without...nothing special.
After the massage, my bf and I went into a room with one tub that overlooked the falls again. The lady explained that this tub did not have very strong bubbles, but more "Champagne Bubbles." She also said that our tub session would last for 25 minutes, but we could stay longer if we wanted. Finally, she said that we could lock the door from the inside...I am not sure how clean that tub is, but I know for a fact that most couples ... We were also given a little snack which was welcome after the massage.
Total damage for this package was $290 including tax and tip. FYI - You can book RMT or non-RMT massage therapists, which will obviously affect the price. Second, my bf thought that the hydrotherapy pool was included in the couple massage package, but it was actually an extra $40. Read carefully, because in my opinion, sitting in a cramped tub is something I can do without.
Definitely will return I also took advantage of taking some extra bottles of water and shampoo from the change room (make every dollar count!!!)
