Hey everyone! It's that time of year for spring cleaning and taking care of yourself. Whether that's working out and prepping for bikini season, getting a new tan, or treating yourself to a massage, here's a list of spas that are awesome. I will star the ones I have actually visited!
SAN DIEGO
Hotel Palomar (downtown San Diego)
Apparently they have the only Morrocan mud treatment room in San Diego. :) They also have amazing body scrubs and wraps from what I've heard. Pricey, but not nearly as expensive as Estancia or Grand del Mar. I would really love to go here! :) maybe a birthday present to myself?
Grand del Mar
PRICIEST other than Pelican Hill. Looks amazing though, the epitome of service.
Estancia La Jolla * (got a mani-pedi here! AMAZING)
Love this place, the service is great!!!! but the SPA itself is tough to find if you're walking around on the property. It is behind the pool, and tough to access without a key.
Hotel del Coronado
I love Coronado and I have a special place in my art for all things styled Victorian. This piece of history has an amazing spa, and I would have loved to try their Valentine's Day package including a couples' massage and smores on the beach but it was i think $400 X__X so expensive. Also, this is a high-traffic tourist area, so it might be a little busier than the secluded Grand del mar.
(She's wondering- who is this guy? haha)
Torrey Pines La Jolla * (got in for free to enjoy the sauna while my parents stayed here)
Beautiful regal looking spa, it was pretty empty when I was there. Very amazing service and top notch spa. Unfortunately, during my parents' stay their hotel room was next to a bridal party suite so that wasn't the best experience, but the spa was fantastic!
Spa L'Auberge Hotel in Del Mar
Right on the water in beautiful del mar, this looks like a great retreat and the restaurants within walking distance are amazing!
Massage Envy * (my favorite location is UTC on Gennessee, ask for Lindi, or La Jolla)
ORANGE COUNTY
Pelican Hill * (took my mom here for mother's day pedicure! IT WAS SO EXPENSIVE ;_; )
This is the TOP TOP spa I have EVER been to. My all time favorite, although it is also THE MOST EXPENSIVE PLACE EVER. This, in my opinion, is Newport Beach living and OC style in a nutshell. Best service, italian style spa, and sooo relaxing. I feel like it would be easy to run into celebrities here.
Monarch Beach St Regis in Dana Point
Recently went to the Hotel for a birthday dinner but haven't been in the spa, but I heard it's super nice.
California Hotel (near California Adventures, Disneyland in Anaheim)
Would love to go here for a treatment, seems like the best Disney has to offer! The Mandara spa also has many different prime locations around the world- including Vegas, Wailea Maui, the middle east, and the south pacific!
Glen Ivy (either Brea or Corona location)
* Went to the Corona location with an awesome gift card and had the best day ever! Matt went with me and even though it was very girly, even he enjoyed it!
*Went to the Brea location for a mani-pedi with mom and love it!
The corona location is the best girls' day trip ever. They have an outdoor lounge pool, outdoor mineral baths and hot tubs, massage areas, CLUB MUD with mud treatments DIY, and an underground moisturizing grotto, where they put an aloe vera-based lotion all over you and you can lounge around and relax. They also have great lunch salad options!
VEGAS
Ceasar's QUA Spa * You can get in and enjoy the whirlpools and steam rooms for 40 bucks/day. LOVE the free tea and hot stone chairs.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE SPA other than MASSAGE ENVY ON THE WHOLE LIST, because it has the most stuff to do. I have definitely been in here for 5 hours at a time before, because they have a great lounge area, and it's easy to use the lockers and shower and it's a great place to hang out if you checked out of your hotel room and are waiting for your flight :) They also have bathing suit dryers, which is a MUST.
THEY HAVE AN ICE ROOM OH YEEEAH
Bellagio * Took Matt here for his birthday. BEST MASSAGE EVER.
Wonderful place. very quiet and empty when I was here.
Aria- Really want to go here.
Apparently they have an infused-salt room, and a balcony pool :)
Well, I hope everyone enjoyed that post. I sure did :) Now I really want to go relax somewhere with spa music. Who doesn't enjoy being pampered?!
