My friends of 6 visited Cascade Spa for my birthday and we had an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend this place to all who visit San Diego especially for a girls trip read more

Amazing experience! Everything was soothing and relaxing. The place looks super cool too! Thank you for your excellent work Susu!

I was gifted a 2.5hr spa treatment for my birthday and loved this experience. The woman who took care of me was very nice and patient with me. The spaces looked clean, smelled good and had a relaxing vibe. Overall it was a good experience that I recommend. Everyone should at some point have a spa day. I left my phone in the locker, so no pictures. That being said, the lockers have PIN numbers you set yourself so your stuff is safe during your stay. read more

Been here twice . The first time was in 2021? And it was nice but the rush you so no time for you to feel relax The second time, we assumed maybe if we went before they closed, they wouldn't rushed us . It was the same . We haven't been back since . My only favorite thing are the cute little sandals they give you to wear . Wish I could take em home. Don't forget to grab some tea ! That is the best part as well read more

We been coming here at least once a month and usually have a good experience, which is why I'm still leaving a balanced review. I typically book with one specific therapist who is great, but this time I tried someone new. This 90-minute Swedish (smooth, kneading, relaxing) massage that was unfortunately very stressful. The therapist came into the room 4 minutes after stepping out to undress. She began spending a noticeable amount of time at the beginning working through the sheets for over 5 minutes with repetitive motions that didn't feel effective and took away from the session time. The massages strokes were blunt and overly aggressive rather than relaxing. She frequently used forearms, knuckles, and elbows directly over sensitive areas like my spine, neck, and shoulder blades, while pushing vigorously. She was rocking me on the table almost the entire time, which made it difficult to relax. There was no kneading! I asked multiple times for lighter pressure, she would adjust briefly, but then consistently returned to deep, uncomfortable pressure. Not a therapeutic deep. There was little sense of flow or technique. Movements were repetitive and concentrated in the same areas, especially my lower back, the same strokes over and over, instead of being a well-balanced, full-body massage. In a full 90-minute session, the front of my legs weren't worked on at all. Communication was a challenge due to a language barrier. While she understood "lighter," it was difficult to communicate anything more specific. I even attempted to use a translator at the start, but that didn't work with her. Made it nearly impossible to communicate preferences or concerns. It would benefit clients if the front desk helped facilitate communication beforehand, especially for pressure preferences or injuries. By the end of the session, my neck and back were quite sore, and I had difficulty sleeping that night. My neck is still sore and it's been weeks. At one point, I was close to ending the massage early, which is not something I would normally consider. I should've, I was hoping it would get better. I'm very familiar with massage and bodywork, and this experience stood out as lacking the technique and intention. It was bad! If this was my first time experience, I would probably never get a massage again. In past visits, I did get the hot stones. That was not as expected. The stones were used maybe 15% of the time, not as expected or worth it. Another suggestion is music would be nice, or a relaxing sound, not silent so you can hear everything going on outside, including growling stomachs. Overall, it's a cute spot and the treatments are affordable. Jessica and Lily are good therapists. May or may not be back. read more

Fast forward to Jan 2026... Oh Cascade Spa, how we've missed you!!! Came here once again to spend quality time with my nearest and dearest just because...every month should be Galentine's Day, LOL! We enjoyed the Jade Package this time, which is similar to the Ruby Package we did last year, except there's a whole body exfoliating salt scrub. Give it a try, your skin will feel baby soft! Same wonderful service with friendly staff directing you where to go next...totally impressed with their efficiency, and we didn't feel rushed at all throughout the treatments. Thank you Cascade Spa, we're already looking forward to the next time! CHEERS till then... read more

Very disappointed by this place. PRO: the place is heavily decorated with unique, dark, Asian furniture and items. CONS: no relaxing music, no heated pad, massage felt rushed and my skin felt like it was being tenderized and moved up and down with no purpose. Masseuse doesn't speak a word of English, couldn't explain to her how to slow down or adjust pressure. Very disappointing. read more

My package included steam room and jacuzzi with champagne. Then a full body scrub and table shower. Lastly a one hour massage. Everything was amazing! read more

We've been coming to Cascade Spa for a few years now. The massages themselves are good, that's the main reason we've continued to return. However, cleanliness has been a consistent concern. The showers are often visibly dirty, with hair and debris on the floors. The showers don't appear to be cleaned regularly, the walls are dirty, and basic amenities are frequently missing. On our last visit there was no body soap or conditioner, only an almost empty bottle of shampoo and no hand soap available, which is unacceptable in any facility, especially a spa!! The shower / locker area tend to smell musty, and the furniture looks worn and not well maintained. The steam room also appears poorly cleaned and gives the impression of infrequent sanitation. Considering the prices are not inexpensive and the spa is consistently busy, it's reasonable to expect a much higher standard of hygiene and upkeep. With proper cleaning protocols and attention to maintenance, this could easily be a 5-star experience. I'll look for a better / cleaner spa! read more

We enjoyed our jacuzzi time, body scrub and polish and 60 min body massage. I felt like I was in Asia because of the beautiful, authentic decor inside from the waiting area to the hallways in the back. It is a big place and it kept on going. The employees were accommodating, professional and kind. We got the CASCADE SPA SPECIAL PACKAGE: JACUZZI AND BODY MASSAGE 110 min: $175 I recommend it! read more

I came here with my mom for an afternoon of massages and it was delightful! From the steam room to the foot massages to the full body massage, they treat you like royalty and it's such a relaxing experience. Tip: parking is tricky so make sure you park nearby in this lot: 3841 Fourth Ave, San Diego, CA 92103. read more

I really needed a massage so I started looking for spas on yelp. I was able to find some good packages at cascade spa. I was a bit skeptical about going into the town because of parking, but I decided to give it a shot anyway. As soon as I reached, to my surprise, cascade spa had reserve parking. This was super helpful. As soon as we entered the spa, we felt like we were in another world. They have some really beautiful wellness themed decor. While we waited for our appointment, we were served some complimentary champagne. The wait time was not a lot. The rooms were relatively clean. The massage itself was very good. My masseuse did not speak a lot, this did not matter a lot to me. It was truly a relaxing experience. I liked how everything was efficient overall. Next time I'm hoping to try a package with most services bundled. The prices are affordable, and the service is good. If you are looking to get pampered, I highly recommend this spa. read more

The hubby and I booked the Orchid package for $215/pp which included over 2 hours of bliss. We started off with a glass of champagne in the steam room, soak in the jacuzzi, followed by a body scrub and shower, then a facial, scalp massage, and full body massage, ending with a long sauna and hot tea. The staff is friendly and on schedule which takes some getting used to because one could feel rushed, but everything was great. The most interesting was the body scrub which left my body nice and smooth and my favorite was the massage which helped me fall asleep. I loved the sauna which was hot and ended things on a high relaxing note. The price point was awesome. Yes, I'd love a nicer locker room with amenities inside of it along with a bathroom but the focus is on the services and not the locker room. They have a shared parking lot down the street with a few reserved spaces for customers. I'd recommend this spa if you're looking to relax at a great price. read more

Cascade has not disappointed me yet! My husband and I have done the Couples Staycation package & Couples Hot Stone Massages individually. Both priced extremely fair and honestly you won't find it much cheaper compared to a lot of spas out here in San Diego. For the quality of massage, relaxing aura, and friendliness from front desk and masseuses, Cascade has been really lovely. Another plus for me - Alan also listened to me when I asked for medium/not hard massage and was extremely respectful with sheet placement which I appreciated so much! read more

Cascade Spa - Waiting/Lobby Area - Massage Near Me - San Diego, California

I had high hopes for this place but I left before I could get any service done because I felt so uncomfortable. First, I tried asking the guy at the front desk which type of massage he recommended, but then he just decided for me and called someone back. Then, a guy came up to take me back into a room which smelt like smoke and seemed a little musty. Then, I realized this guy was the one giving me a massage and not just prepping me... which is really what got me bc I was not asked if I wanted a female ... which I definitely did. I went back up front to talk to the guy at the front desk, and without apologizing, just said he would get me a female. That's when I noticed some of the women working there were peaking around the corner looking at me? After that I just decided to leave bc I was not about to relax after all that. For context, I am not from this area and am from the widwest, so maybe I'm not used to how things are done here, but I do know back home I was able to get a $30 massage (from a girl still in school) and was asked way more questions about my needs and felt way more comfortable! read more

One of the managers, Shirley, reached out to me after my previous experiences wanting to remedy the situation. She was soo lovely to talk to! She offered for me to come back for a redemption package with Jessica and I had a truly relaxing experience this time around! Honestly, if this is what people experience when they come to spas, I completely get it now! I left feeling amazing! One critique I have is I was told to use a locker that was broken each time I was here, so it seems some maintenance is in order. After everything I went through with this place, I would rate it as a 3.5 overall (rounding to 4). However, I do recommend this place to others. It seems like I was a fluke situation and I honestly would come back here again. read more

This spa was very beautiful, I loved to high ceilings and decorations they used, it created a lovely atmosphere. I went with my friend and we got a couples massage. My friend's masseuse was named Yoyo and she did an amazing job, when something was painful she would find a different angle to release the knot. She massaged every inch, including face and scalp and she even cracked some toes. My friend was very relaxed by the end of the massage. On the other hand, I had a male masseuse and I felt like I have had better masseuses. I have a lot of knots in my neck and shoulders and I thought they would have focused on it once they felt the knots but no, I left there with my most problematic knots still on my shoulder. I have had other places really focus on relieving my shoulder knots. I felt that my massage was very average. In our room, there was no ambiance music which felt like a bummer cuz my bed was creaky and that felt a bit distracting. They had warm towels to place on you which was nice but I felt like their massaging oil was not heated. The beds were not heated either. They have some free parking reserved which is about a block away. If you look at their website it will give you the exact address for the parking lot. The spots were clearly labeled cascade spa. read more

Had such a great experience here! The massage was very rejuvenating and exactly what we needed. The atmosphere was relaxing, clean, and peaceful from start to finish. It's especially perfect for a couples massage -- we both left feeling refreshed and stress-free. Highly recommend if you're looking to unwind and treat yourself! read more

I had high hopes about this spa as there are many high rated reviews. I booked a couples massage this past weekend. I made the appointment earlier in the week. We arrived at the spa 10 minutes early. I had no problem waiting to be seen but our appointment didn't start till more than 20 minutes past our original appointment time. We waited even longer in the actual massage room just lying there. The massage itself was mediocre at best. I asked the lady doing my massage to not be too rough (I read in some bad reviews that some had that experience). I had the opposite, where my massage was way too light. I did end up asking to up the intensity but due to the language barrier I don't think she understood because she continued with the very light massaging. There was a part where I was given a scalp massage but her nails were scratching so roughly that this made it not enjoyable. It was pointless trying to ask for adjustments or to focus on a specific area. It's great that a lot of people had a good experience. I would use caution if you do book here as it seems a bit unpredictable and your experience is going to rely heavily on the person massaging. I wish I could say I enjoyed my experience, but it was not worth the money. The only reason why I'm giving 2 stars rather than 1 is because my boyfriend said he enjoyed his massage. read more

The ambiance was very soothing and I was super comfortable on my first visit which is not usual for me. I had the rejuvenation massage and John gave me the best massage ever! He made sure there he wasn't applying too much pressure and that I was comfortable. Definitely would recommend and I will be bringing a friend next time!! read more

I've had a lot of massages in my life; I get them regularly to relieve stress and tension in my upper back and have tried many different spas for this. Cascade is without a doubt the best experience I've ever had. To avoid parking challenges, I booked a midweek 10am appointment and parking was easy in one of the free spaces they have available at 3750 5th Ave (one block south, spots 6-9). I didn't request anyone in particular and although it seemed there was a little bit of a language barrier, the practitioner had excellent knowledge, skill, and did an amazing job with my problem area. read more

I wouldn't plan this for a romantic experience with you partner. My boyfriend and I did a couples package and for the price along with how much you're getting seemed justified but it did not match the level of service or cleanliness. Everything was very rushed and unorganized. We still appreciate the massage we received because it was completely different from what we've had at other spas in Mexico. It wasn't relaxing but the ladies we had made sure to stretch out every limb. This spa operates in a way where it caters to all at the bare minimum. read more

Went for a friend's birthday , we all got the cascade package and loved it. I will definitely be back. Absolutely awesome experience. From the moment you walk in the door, you're transported to a world of relaxation. Peaceful vibes and clean quiet rooms complete the experience. Phones aren't allowed so I couldn't take any photos. Highly recommend this spa. read more

My mom and I came here for the spa and massage, and we had a wonderful experience. The place is amazing and very relaxing. The decor is beautiful, with a lovely Asian-inspired style. We were treated to champagne, a steam sauna, head and foot massages, a hot sauna with tea, and then a full-body massage. Everything felt very special. I would definitely recommend giving it a try. read more

Got treated here for my birthday by my BFF :) Great for couples or a couple of friends like us. Service was great the whole time! After checking in, we were brought back right away. We started with the steam room, washed off in the locker room, had a facial and foot massage in 1 room, and lastly, were brought to another room for our 1 hour full body massage. Felt super relaxed when this was all done. I was surprised to have two sets of massages, I'm so used to just having one. We were a little confused with the steam room, we didn't know how long we were supposed to stay in there and left when it got too much. We thought and were hoping we got access to their salt sauna, but unfortunately we didn't. Allan was a great masseuse. Pressure was good. Spa is beautiful! Loved the decor and it was clean. I'm not sure how much it cost though because I was luckily treated. Great experience! read more

Mt boyfriend decided to book a couple's getaway for my birthday here. This cute Asian paradise spa is tucked away rather unassumingly in Hillcrest, and you're popped with beautiful decor and warm air (a stark difference to the 62° day outside). To start the three hour adventure, we were given entry to a private steam sauna, which was so filled with steam that we could barely see our hand in front of our face - it was glorious. The second part was foot reflexology with a nice warm foot bath while they (very thoroughly) massage everywhere else. This was a communal area with two other seating spots across the room. The final ending was a full body table massage. They were, again, very thorough. He asked if I wanted light or firm pressure, and as always, I opted for firm - and he delivered. He even commented that he doesn't normally press that hard, but it felt SO nice. You do get I think a 5% discount if you use cash, so I recommend doing that, and bring enough for a tip! read more

Cascade Spa - Massage Near Me - San Diego, California

Read reviews carefully, our experience was very similar to the bad reviews. Place was not as clean as you would wish a spa would be. The lady who helped me was very rough and after I didn't feel relaxed, I felt beat up. My mom said she felt the same. The room where had message was freezing. The price was ok, we got ruby package and paid $480 for 3 people. I don't go to spas a lot but I get messages regularly. I think the ladies who helped us didn't have much training. I wish I could have asked where she learned her techniques! The salt sauna was pleasant but we were in it for maybe 10 minutes, I could have stayed in it longer. Overall I won't go to this place again! read more

I made my appointment with Shirley and the process was simple and seamless. I chose a weekday noon appointment since I figured it would be less busy, and that turned out to be a great decision. As a professional driver, I spend many hours sitting, so I really needed a proper deep tissue massage. From the moment I walked in, I immediately felt a sense of calm. The combination of the soothing music and beautiful décor created a very relaxing atmosphere. The locker room was spotless, and I was provided a robe before heading into the steam room, which was also very clean. The steam helped loosen my muscles and allowed me to fully relax before the massage. The showers were just as clean and well maintained. My massage therapist, Lilly, was excellent. She was professional, attentive, and truly skilled. She worked out all the knots in my back and applied the perfect amount of pressure. You can tell she knows exactly what she's doing. I left feeling like a new person -- refreshed, lighter, and completely reset. read more

It was easy to book an appointment for the same week. We were visiting out of town so I was reading reviews like crazy and this one seemed to be the most recommended and best price. Especially for the couples massage deal. I was afraid of hard to find parking, but since we were one of the earlier appointments, they do have a small parking lot (4 spaces) about a block away which was very helpful. This is not your high end luxury spa, more like low-mid, but they TRY to be fancy. Wish they would have been better about explaining what you were doing, since they just wave you over here and go over there. We got changed into only towels to go to the steam sauna, it was nice but then we didn't know how long we were meant to stay in there!!?? We peeked out, and then that's how we knew we were done? Then we had a "facial", scalp massage and foot scrub at the same time. The "facial" was not a facial lol. It was like a dry face massage. We did get a face mask after. Then you go to the hot sauna with tea which was nice, then again, you leave at your own according before you get the 1 hour massage. They get 5/5 for their massage. My husband LOVED it. he said she got out allll his knots and even paid for 30 mins more. I want to note they never asked if we wanted male or female, this is my first time with a male masseuse. I was slightly uncomfortable with it, but it was fine. He did a good job with the massage. Overall, it was well priced, our bodies feel great/ bruised up haha but in a good way. My husband most likely would love to go back for just the massage. I think I wouldn't unless I am experiencing some extreme back/shoulder pains. read more

Cascade Spa is a phenomenal deal when it comes to the services they provide at a incredibly affordable price point. The staycation package for couples is great with steam room, sauna, foot reflexology, and a 1 hour massage it is quite the experience. The only thing that prevented me from giving 5 stars is the manner in which they guide you from place to place within the spa is a little disorganized and rushed otherwise well worth a visit. read more

Ugh I hate to leave such a bad review but I couldn't bring myself to give 2 stars. Massage: F Cleanliness: D- Ambiance: C Customer service:D We came as a group of 7 girls during girls trip. We booked ahead of time. We arrived and there clearly confusion about who was doing what. As they shuffles us away they seemed to have run out of masseuses and rooms. They placed myself and another girl from our group (who I had just met that weekend) in a couples room. I'm an adult so getting nearly or all way naked in front of another girl doesn't bother me, but I feel like I wasn't given a option. So as me and my new naked friend with we realize our room is nearest to the front desk and we can hear the phone running and people talking on the another side of the wall. I'm pretty sure the room was the one they used only in moments of overbooking crisis. Either way wasn't planning on having front desk phone call music on my spa bingo card today. Next to my massage by a women that probably also came in to assist with massages only when absolutely necessary. Pretty sure she had never had any for all training of anytime. I'll put it like this I sorta felt like a CPR practice dummy soaked in canola oil. If front desk had asked ild have let them know how disappointing but they didn't. He simply took my money and continued to help the 10 other people standing in line. read more

Shirley made my birthday weekend so incredibly relaxing. I came down with 20 girls to the spa and made sure to make reservations for the couple's spa package. My sister secretly added on a bath with salts for me as an extra birthday gift and I had no idea what was going on but I absolutely loved it. I had never had that experience in my life before. I even went into the steam room which I had never done before. We got a full body massage, head and foot massage, and a mini facial. For parking, we had parked in their designated reserved Cascade spa parking that fit a large 15 seater van. Thank you so much for accommodating my big birthday party of girls. You are so amazing! read more

I came here a few months ago but wanted to leave this review for women who were thinking about getting a massage here later in the evening. I got a massage around 7pm and it was such a miserable experience. Everything was cold (oil and towel) and I could feel a draft coming from under the massage bed. It was not relaxing and honestly felt really shady at night. I would not recommend coming here alone during the later times, but my neck was killing me and this was the only place open. Stay careful out there! read more
