This was formerly the Pacifca Grand Spa that I patronized several years ago. I decided to see if this new spa would be as pleasing as my prior experience at Pacifica and it was for the most part. The building inside is still clean and tranquil. We were warmly greeted by the staff and given bottles of water. We were walk-in’s so we had to wait about 30 minutes as they were busy. Just sitting in the lobby was making me relaxed. My mom and I shared a massage room, which was extremely clean and nicely decorated. The massage itself was very nice and relaxing and the price was extremely reasonable — about $ 36USD for a 60 minute massage. The only negative, and it really isn’t a big deal, is that I prefer a deep tissue massage and what I had was more of a Swedish. I should have initially requested a deeper massage. Additionally, the music that was playing throughout our session was festive, but definitely not tranquil which kind of hindered the whole massage experience. The spa is nicely situated across from the Marina and about a 5 minute walk from the Mayan Palace, which is where I stayed. I would definitely go back if I vacation in PV again — I’ll just request a deep tissue massage and tranquil music next time.

We were greeted warmly and with water bottles. The spa was super clean and the staff was super nice. I thought I was going to have an issue communicating but everyone spoke English well enough. The room we had our couples massage in was lightly lite with a subtle red light to help soothe. The massage therapist were good, not the best I have ever had, but good. I wished the massage had a little more pressure but it was so relaxing I fell asleep which I never do. They do aromatherapy during the session were they put a minty eucalyptus scent near your face for you to inhale and that was really nice and soothing. The lotion that they used was not overly oily which I liked since it still left a nice hydrated feeling after the massage was done. Cons for me was that the room was really cold at points. Maybe warm it up just a bit. I can’t really complain though since this was he cheapest place I could find that wasn’t sketchy. I would highly consider coming back here though and would recommend it to others. I think I should have asked her to push a little harder since I usually get deep tissues but decided to try the relaxing massage for the couples massage.

Great little spa in the Marina Vallarta, we walked in and booked a massage for 4hrs later. Good prices, $ 580 pesos for 75min relaxing and a bit more for deep tissue. The masseuses didn’t speak any English, but were friendly, and did a great job. Nice clean rooms without all of the noise of a busy street or busy beach. We went back the next day before our flights. If I am back in the area, I will definitely go back.
