The Spa at Catalina

Reviewed By prolifegirl

This is by far the best massage I have ever had. The therapists are very professional. I had the 80 minute Stress Buster and it was the simply awesome. I have been going here for years and would recommend Ally, Barb, or Lavina. You will not be disappointed.

We highly recommend Catalina Sea Spa and their 90 minute Romance Package Massage. Ester and Ramona were our therapists and they gave us an excellent and very professional 90 minute couples massage/treatment. We had never done a couples massage before and didn’t know what to expect. They had two tables set up in a small room side by side with peaceful music playing and low lighting to make us feel comfortable. The nice wide heated massage tables were very comfortable. They asked us both if we wanted them to concentrate on any specific areas. We both needed neck and shoulder work which they both focused on, far deeper than a typical Swedish massage followed by a peppermint scalp massage, sugar scrub, foot massage and lavender facial. My fiancé and I were so relaxed afterwards and felt great. We booked a 6pm time which allowed us to still have time to get a nice meal before we headed back to our hotel and slept peacefully that night. What a great way to begin our lovely weekend stay in Catalina to celebrate our birthdays! A big thank you to Ester and Ramona and Catalina Sea Spa for providing a wonderful treatment for us both at the same time! We will be back!!!

A Touch of Heaven

Reviewed By caraj00 - Adelaide, Australia

I just wanted a full body massage to treat myself while on holiday and I had a blissful experience. The spa is located in a hotel/marketplace building so the massage room is a little dark room inside the building, but with the music playing, you can imagine being in a rainforest. The massage was definitely full body, from the top of my head to the tip of my toe! It was just the right amount of pressure and extra attention was given to my sore neck and upper back muscles. Unfortunately, as I live in Australia, I can't easily go back for another massage! I'd be there in a heartbeat!
