My visit to the Well & Being Spa at the Scottsdale Princess Hotel was truly more than what I needed. My therapist was amazing(can't remember her name), I received a CBD Gemstone Massage using the beautiful Antara line, along with a Knesko Gemstone Eye Mask, which made the experience incredibly relaxing.
My cousin and I were looking to unwind and enjoy quality time together since we both have very busy schedules. She received the Arnica Deep Tissue Massage with Stephanie and absolutely loved it. We also spent time at the pool, where we ordered the poke bowl and chicken bowl, both were delicious and exceeded our expectations.
The only area that could have been better was the check-in experience. Upon arrival, the front desk receptionist provided our tickets and requested payment, but the price listed was different from what we had been quoted over the phone. When I pointed this out, she explained that pricing depends on availability and how busy the spa is, similar to airline pricing. I found this surprising, as this was never mentioned when booking our appointments. While they did honor the quoted price, the explanation and overall interaction could have been handled more clearly and warmly.
There were also a few comfort issues during our services. There was no hot water in the showers, my cousin's treatment room was quite cold (the therapist apologized and mentioned she had just turned the heater on), and my massage table warmer was not on when I first got on the table. Fortunately, it improved as the massage progressed.
That said, the spa attendants were wonderful, very helpful, attentive, and clearly dedicated to maintaining a clean and serene environment. The robes were neatly hung, and all amenities appeared clean and properly sanitized.
Overall, it was a great experience, but I was expecting a higher level of customer service from the front desk, as it sets the first impression of the spa. The checkout front desk coordinator, however, was lovely and very kind, which ended our visit on a positive note.
