Editorial Review for Spa Mandalay – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
The posh spa is centered around a 30-foot-long tiered fountain, which empties into narrow whirlpools where patrons soak. Nearby, a large eucalyptus-scented steam room provides ample room for lounging. Services include a variety of massages and skin treatments using orange peel, green tea, volcanic mud or crushed grape seeds. Before or after treatments, spa guests may use the deluxe fitness center, where floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the hotel's lagoon.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoT-shirts and shorts are supplied, but you should bring your own closed-toe gym shoes.
MassageThe Aromatherapy Massage uses essential oils from plants applied with the Swedish technique to induce a high level of relaxation.
Body WrapsThe Dilo Repair wrap uses the Dilo nut as it has been used for centuries in Fiji--to heal the skin from sun exposure, inflammation, rashes and scars. An application of Dilo is combined with aloe vera, coconut and exotic Fijian nut oils, and applied to the body before the body is wrapped.

The spa was nice, the pools were pretty, and locker rooms were good size. I felt a bit like I was just another number - my therapist was late and didn't apologize, and i didn't like having to put down the gratuity on the sales slip in the treatment room. I got the Nirvana treatment and it was done well and very relaxing.
Pros: Nirvana treatment is a must
Cons: Appt was cut short

Fair warning. The facility is very nice, too bad the operations are poor. If you're an experienced spa goer this is not the place to go. In the men's "relaxation" area be prepared for two blaring TVs, bombarding you with commercials ( yes, you are paying to listen to commercials ! ) Plus, the added bonus of loud employees complaining about their lives is about as un-spa as you can get. If I spend $330 /w tip for two services (facial+ massage+tips)-I don't expect to hear a peep. The women's area by contrast does have a quiet room, so my wife tells me. The showers in the mens room are pathetic with Home Depot grade fixtures. They do have a very nice steam room however-they got this right. After pick up from the relax area, the therapist could not find the right room, get a clue folks. A spa experience is supposed to be choreographed and seamless. The extra bonus of cold hands and unheated oil were surprising. At the end of your services, a moment of great relaxation, be prepared to do math ! They will leave your bill in the treatment room and expect a sign off. Suggest paying/tipping ahead of time to save yourself from this bizzare annoyance. My wife and I were both amazed by this. At a well run spa, at the end of a treatment you can expect someone to hand you water as you exit the room and to quietly ease you back to reality as you go back to the locker area, to continue the relaxation. At a good spa, when you're done with all services and amenites, then you pay. The Bathhouse (same operator) or Canyon Ranch are much better experiences. We wasted $600+ at Mandalay Spa.
Pros: Nice decor, steam room, nice whirlpools.
Cons: Poor service
