Spavia Day Spa

Just a warning that this review is about to get really sassy.
So far my experience with these folks has been suboptimal at best. I purchased a Groupon here for a relaxing massage as part of my 2 year anniversary gift to my boyfriend. The first time I call, I find out that the Groupon is good to use any day but Saturday. Perfectly fine! I obviously didn’t read the fine print (bought it on my phone rather on the computer, so it didn’t show up, whoops). But the ATTITUDE I received for not knowing! So that was fine and I said I would call back.
Well, I call back and talk to someone on the phone. Firstly she tells me they aren’t doing these Groupons anymore (yeah, no, just bought this). Then she says it’s not valid for the whole weekend (contradicting what the other woman tells me). And finally just tells me that the two days I was interested in are booked. Would they have been booked had I not had a Groupon? Hmmmm… I explain that this is the one weekend my boyfriend and I are visiting Chicago and I get a curt and cold ‘sorry.’ Might as well have said nothing at all.
I’ve never spoken with a spa that was so utterly rude before. In San Francisco, New York, LA, Bangkok, London. So, needless to say I’ve just wasted $ 151 on nothing. Actually, I take that back. Worse than nothing. Unnecessary rudeness. That’s exactly what I enjoy spending my money on!

I’ve been a member at the Boulder studio and have had no complaints up until today. I received the WORST spray tan of my life. The weekend before my sisters wedding. I’m streaky and completely discolored. When I went back to the spa to complain the next day, the front desk workers were insistent on disagreeing they saw any streaks even though it’s very apparent. They were extremely rude and unhelpful. I canceled my membership and will never be back. Disappointed and utterly dumbfounded over the entire experience.

This place is great if you are just looking for solid service. It’s small and doesn’t have a huge locker room or relaxation room, but it sufficient to hold you over for a few minutes before and after your massage. Speaking of which I’ve been here twice and had great massages each time. This time Cynthia was my therapist and she was excellent, focusing on my problem areas as I requested. She and everyone else were very friendly and the place is very reasonably priced. I’ll be back for sure!

Tried Spavia after buying a Gilt offer. Chose the balance facial and was assigned to Rachel. I booked online using the MindBody app which was very easy! I was pleasantly surprised that the facility had a locker room and supplied robes, sandals, etc. I was not expecting that. The facility was clean, the staff attentive and the facial was on par with large resort spa experiences I’ve had in the past. Overall a good value and Rachel did a nice job. The free and open parking right in front was a plus! Would definitely consider returning again.

My husband and I came to Spavia for a couples massage after finding a great deal on Gilt City. The experience was relaxing and enjoyable. You are given a tour when you walk in of the locker rooms (very clean, complimentary robes and slippers to wear while there, shower with shampoo etc, locker to lock your stuff in during treatment) and lounge area (complimentary tea, very relaxing to wait before and after treatment). The massage room was clean and comfortable and the massage itself was lovely, with the massage therapist using the right amount of pressure. They have a monthly membership experience for regular clients as well.

I got a membership and love it! It’s one of the best things I did last year and I always look forward to my next visit. You can book one line which I love too. Every service has been superior!

For the price, this place and the service are unbeatable.
.But a couple things happened during my visit that made me wanting to explore other better options…
The facial was really relaxing and good… I would go back for facial with Tanya for sure…
The massage though… the massage therapist said that she was given the room the last min, ok. maybe that’s why it was sorta cold, the heat pad on the bed wasn’t on, and the therapist stool wasn’t moved away?
And during the session, she forgot to adjust the head pad so my neck was strained and sore when i was faced down… i had to ask her to adjust the head pad but then she seemed to have some difficulty in making the correct adjustment…
so i don’t know if if she’s new, or if she’s not too familiar with that room, or if it’s the massage bed… but i left the massage feeling it could have been better…

Just received a couples massage with my boyfriend from Spavia. Our masseuses were Shalawn and Cynthia and we both left feeling absolutely amazing. We told the masseuses we are really into working out, so they made sure to work on spots that rid that lactic acid build up.
Spavia is located right off Clyborn next to Treasure Island so parking is free (yay)! Upon arriving we were greeted with a warm welcome from the front desk staff. We filled out a form requesting what lotion we would like, type of music to use, a level of massage desired (soft, medium, firm)
From there we were taken into the back to change into our robes and sandals. They provide keyless lockers to put your stuff in as well. From there, we were able to relax together in a lounge where there was an array of teas, water, green tea mints, and hot neck rolls.
The facility was clean, modern, and calming. We will definitely be back again! Thanks Spavia.

There is a reason why this place is rated 5 stars! It is because the front desk staff, Roxanne, the owner, Paul, and the MT, James and Johnny, are EXCEPTIONAL at their job. I went on Valentine’s Day for their Swedish massage. I had James. Girlfriend had Johnny. We both were in heaven per our conversation we had. It’s such a warm greeting once you walk in. It’s super quite clean organized and romantic. You have to go! You will not regret it. They had made a life time customer. I can’t wait to try the hot stone massage. Thank you Spavia for an amazing experience.

Incredible experience from the moment I walked in. I was greeted by a super friendly receptionist who explained everything to me.
After being asked my lotion, music, and conversation preferences, I was escorted to the changing area to get out of my clothes and into a robe and slippers. The receptionist even made sure to give me slippers in my size. She showed me how to work the locker and where the lounge area is where I had a warm neck wrap and cup of water (tea also available) before my massage therapist came to get me.
And that was just the ‘foreplay’; the massage was AMAZING. Emily was my therapist and I went for a 60-​minute signature massage. Emily was very professional but also super personable and immediately made me feel at ease. She made sure I was comfortable and getting the most out of my time. She had the bed and the lotion heated and made sure my feet didn’t get cold. She even rearranged the usual massage so she could spend more time on my back, where I hold my tension, and was super in tune with my body and the way it was reacting to the massage.
Overall, the experience was seamless from the get-​go, and Emily’s professionalism and attention to detail made it truly exceptional.
Absolutely ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would recommend.

Spavia…
AHHHHHHH!!!
It’s been a while since I’ve had the time to write a review, or to even care to write a review for that matter.
But I feel I must!
From the first step, what a breath of fresh air!
Attention to detail, precise and courteous.
It was a male on the phone, not sure who, but very pleasant tone and delivery.
I arrived for my appointment today and was greeted by a very friendly and so personable receptionist/​front desk…
Down to letting me know of the 3 panel glass door to guide me back to reception without playing musical doors, you all know what I mean, all the doors look the same from within the friendly confines of the SPA, lol!
Was shown through the process…
lockers, shower, bathroom, rest area, etc.
Was sitting sipping on water to only be greeted and handed a warm aromatherapy neck pillow to keep me company while waiting on my therapist, which btw, was right on time.
Shalawn introduced herself and said follow me.
ok!!!
All you need to know, this was perfection from beginning to end.
All the attention to detail and respect for your wishes is all one needs to know.
They ask your choice of music and scents to boot, soooo impressed.
Besides all that, one of the best massages I have ever had, and I’ve had many!
This experience makes me want to treat myself more often, and I will.
Thanks Spavia

I found Spavia on Whittl and used a coupon from them to book a 60 minute massage and so glad I did. I have been to high priced hotel spas and this is just as good for half the cost. From the moment I walked in, they were attentive and made sure I had a good experience. Since it was my first time, I filled out a profile and even got to pick the background noise, lotion scent and even how much conversation I wanted during the massage. I got Mary and she was awesome. She confirmed what I said on my profile, checked if I had any areas she should focus on and made sure I was comfortable throughout. The room was the perfect temp on a super cold day and the heated neck warmer afterwards with the hot tea was a nice touch. If you want high quality spa treatment with a neighborhood feel, I would recommend Spavia. I will be back!

Really nice facility and relaxing atmosphere. I requested Cadeashia and upgraded to a deep tissue and it was incredible. I’ll definitely be back!

Spavia is AMAZING!
Last week I was lucky enough to get a fantastic 80 minute massage from Cadeashia. She’s tiny, but mighty. She is very talented and actually listened to my comments on what body parts hurt and how strong/​soft of pressure I was comfortable with.
The staff is super friendly, the facility is brand new and extremely clean and luxurious on the inside.
There is a huge, free parking lot right at the front door.
You fill out a survey choosing your lotion scent (they all smell amazing), your preference for conversation, and music choice.
They have heated neck wraps and water/​tea in the waiting area.
Even though you can buy a membership to the spa, I never pressured to join. They handed me the info, and I was on my way.
I highly recommended Spavia, and I can’t wait to come back.

This place is a gem! From the moment you walk in you know you are in for some serious pampering. Chris at reception is wonderful– she walked me through everything and I loved the questionnaire you fill out to make the experience 100% customer and tailored to you.
The massage itself was FANTASTIC. I had Patrice and she was so professional and really focused on the areas that I asked her to. I carry a lot of tension in my back (who doesn’t) and without really having to direct her she was able to loosen everything up and point out certain areas that were particularly tight. She also gave me the best leg and foot massage I’ve ever had. I know I will return– the amazing massage coupled with the OUTSTANDING customer service will keep me coming back!

A friend and I bought a Gilt City for Spavia to try it out, and we finally did so last weekend. We were both doing a 60 minute massage and a 60 minute facial, and I would generally describe the experience as ‘pretty good.’
Reasons I liked Spavia:
— Plenty of parking outside, and easy to find/​get to
— You get to fill out a survey choosing your lotion scent, your preference for conversation, and music choice.
— Easy locker system in the changing room
— Heated neck wraps and water/​tea in the waiting area
— My facial was so relaxing that I literally fell asleep
Reasons I probably won’t be back:
— The music choice I indicated on my form wasn’t actually used :(
— The massage was just okay and nothing that left me wanting more
— I used a neck wrap in the waiting room and then thought «how does this thing ever get washed??»
— The waiting room was PACKED in between my massage and facial. There was literally nowhere left to sit.
— There was some loud conversation that I could hear perfectly clearly the entire time I was in the waiting room, which was very annoying and ruined the relaxation mood

Usually don’t write a ton of reviews but this place was great!!! I believe my masseuse was named Johnny and what a nice guy. Very talented as well and actually listened to my comments on where hurt and how strong/​soft. very peacful hidden gem. Spoke with what I believe to be the owners on the way out and you could tell that they were genuinely happy that i was happy. nice to see good people that care about there business. I strongly recommend coming here.
Thanks

Spavia is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. Very relaxing experience at an affordable price. My masseuse did an excellent job and tailored to specific requests. The spa really tailors the experience to you including type of music preferred (or you can bring your own!); selecting your own lotion; level of pressure; and even how much conversation is preferred.
There’s a relaxation room, private lockers, and quiet/​calming environment. I’m looking forward to returning!

This location is tucked into the shopping center by Treasure Island where I usually go cycling at Full Psycle, but had never noticed it was there. I was pretty skeptical about the facility and the massage service when I purchased the Gilt City since it was a very good deal ($ 105 for couple, 80min), just wanted to keep my expectation in line with how much I paid. This place blew me away!
The staff is super friendly, the facility is brand new and VERY clean and nice on the inside. We had Sarah and Johnny who were both very professional. Sarah and I chattted up more :) but she was very helpful with my problem areas and even made suggestions on stretching and certain nutrition that I should be adding to my diet so as to reduce muscle tension. I’m also pregnant and Sarah made sure I was comfortable the entire time. My husband was also very satisfied with Johnny’s massage, and he’s very particular so I know he was happy with the service. The massage was exactly 80 min which some places will skimp on depending on if they are running behind. We never felt rushed or pressured to sign up for packages either.
Will definitely be recommending this place to family and friends!

I will be back! I love how you can personalize the scent of your lotion, music and whether or not your therapist holds a conversation with you during the session. It was a Swedish massage with just the right amount of pressure to work out the kinks. I had Shalawn, she was AMAZING! Even though you can buy a membership to the spa, we were never pressured to join, just given the info and on our way!
Highly recommended!
