Most visitors leave refreshed and valued, with therapists like Buhle, Lisa, and Azakhe earning repeated praise for releasing tension and listening to needs. The spa feels serene and upmarket, yet one couples' anniversary visit soured when promised oil wasn't available, equipment failed, and promised manager contact never came. The venue offers massage, facials, nails, men's grooming, and kids' treatments in a tranquil Craighall Park space. Regulars note high-end finish and friendly hosts who remember them. Buhle handles sports tension exceptionally; Lisa brings warmth to CBD massages. Most walk out feeling brand new.
