Lori Dolan Revilla Review of Canyon Ranch Spa Club | Veneti...
I was here piggybacking on my husband's convention...
I was here piggybacking on my husband's convention because it was our anniversary weekend as well. I decided to try the day spa pass. Now I did read the reviews here and on Google and I figured I'm only doing the day pass so how disappointing could it be? It wasn't great. I am sorry to state that the majority of the poor reviews are right on. The spa itself is very maze-like and confusing with limited signage, and while the staff is very nice, this is not a relaxing environment at all. People were having not-so-quiet personal conversations in the Quiet Zone room. The Salt Grotto was not really a Salt Grotto at all. The Wave Room made you feel like you were looking at an inverted drain. Perhaps the worst part for me was heading into the Aquavana treatment area to encounter extremely small saunas that could probably fit about only 3 people comfortably. And a thermal bath which was a Jacuzzi the size of my in-ground spa at home. Surrounded by only four thermal chairs. It gave you the feeling like you were on top of everyone, and I had decided to go in flagrante delicto under my robe... I did not even attempt to get into the water because I felt like I was literally going to be climbing on someone's lap getting in. Shame. I was kind of looking forward to a few hours of relaxation, which I definitely did not get.
