If you are visiting Santa Fe and looking for a great spa that has it all...look no further. My wife and I spent the better part of a day here hanging at the spa, enjoying a private tub, getting massages and then having a fabulous dinner at Izanami. The whole experience was fantastic and didn't break the bank.
Outstanding experience! I came here with a group of girlfriends and we had the best time. The service is top notch and it was all very clean and comfortable. We had a private tub, which was so nice. Very reasonable for the quality!
Consistently a transformational experience. Gorgeous setting, tubs have been upgraded, staff is accommodating and professional.
Great relaxing vib.. excellent staff.. incredible massage option.. unique restaurant for lunch and dinner! Do yourself a favor and give it a try!
Awesome facility being there felt you were no longer in New Mexico but in a traditional Japanese sake pub in the South Pacific! Been there for business cannot wait to return for pleasure! Exceptional serving staff exceptional cusine and for an exceptional hat trick, Ten Thousand Waves leaves you with an exceptional experience second to none!
Absolutely amazing. We stayed in the Bessou and it was totally worth it. Best nights sleep in a long time. Awesome shower. There's even a fireplace and they provide coffee and breakfast for the morning. We tried the restaurant and the private hot tub and all of it was excellent. I would highly recommend staying here whenever you can!
My wife and I are locals and enjoy staying here for special occasions. I would recommend the spa around 5, private tub at 7, and dinner at 8:30. The summer is really hot, so spring, fall, or winter is better with all the hot tubs.
Ten thousand waves is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to. Everything they offer is high quality and authentic. You'd think with a hotel, spa, hot tubs, and restaurant, something would be meh. But no. Izanami (their restaurant) is superb, the tubs are private and gorgeous, the spa is amazing, and the hotel, from what I've seen of it, is beautiful. I will always recommend Ten Thousand Waves to anyone who's looking for a little peace, quiet, and beauty.
Fantastic massage. Great calm environment with friendly kind staff.
Came here for a spa treatment and it was nice. Masseuses were very skilled. Check in process was smooth. And the facility is very well designed. Had to deduct a star because they are currently under construction and it s noisy. No one gave us a heads up that the place was under construction when we were booking our treatments. When we brought up the jack hammering upon check out all they could was say, yeah... We have another treatment scheduled for later this week that we have decided to cancel because they couldn t guarantee it wouldn t be noisy. Ruins the experience if you ask me.
Could have been better, however, after discussing with manager, got our room comped. Staff still a bit short during COVID.
