    This spot is such a vibe! It's gorgeous and perfect for an afternoon with friends. The staff was kind and helpful, and the bay + sauna were so peaceful. We even saw seals popping up around us! 10/10 recommend.

    Hot saunas floating in the bay followed by a plunge in the San Francisco Bay to swim alongside the boats, kayakers, and sea lions / seals - amusing to watch through the big window in the sauna. The showers are lovely. The water isn't as cold as I thought it would be. Can't wait to return!

    Fjord has been a game changer on the Sausalito waterfront. The founders worked long and hard to establish their floating sauna and plunge platform, and it has been a huge hit from the start. Though their business is booked far in advance, they have been generous in donating to the nonprofit community. Locals are grateful they chose Sausalito as a base for their unique waterfront experience.

    You can jump in (about four feet from dock to water) or there is a sturdy ladder to get in and out.

    Fun, safe, fabulous place to jump in the Bay and enjoy a sauna with a full-wall window on the bay. Nice deck for relaxing in between your cool plunge and hot sauna, a convenient water station, and basic changing rooms. Locked/clean bathrooms nearby. Be careful to park in legal space.

    Leading up to the floating saunas...

    This is a wonderful experience and a beautiful place, with friendly staff, but it's difficult to book a spot.

    Alex was very kind and gave me the opportunity to experience Fjord before I left the Bay, and I'm so grateful I did.

The "spa" is literally the locker room and a steam room plus bathroom stalls and that's it. There are several other day spas in Marin with way better facilities, more diverse services with high availability and set up by comparison. Wouldn't come back here because the price point isn't warranted, felt like a tourist trap.

The deep tissue massage I got was very good. Can't say it was the best I've ever had but definitely not the worst. Just don't expect it to be as big or grand as a five star resort or anything. It's located in the boutique style hotel which has been there for ages. It's small, yet nicely appointed. The staff were great, rooms were quiet. I enjoyed the outdoor lounge area. The rest of the place isn't much to see. There was one loud group of guys making noise/laughing loudly for a while down the steps from the lounges. Not sure if they were employees of the hotel or guests but it stopped after 10 minutes or so. With tight quarters you can't do much about that. The men's locker room was meh, clean, but small and kind of rank smelling like a local YMCA or something. Think that's due to it being so small and having a steam room, there's not great ventilation. Also thought it wasn't good that the urinals were so close to the sinks. Shower pressure not great. Parking is a bit tricky being downtown Sausalito. They give you a free parking pass if you go out and get it. Wish they'd email it to you ahead of time to be more convenient. Overall, it's ok and I may return under the right circumstances but I do prefer a more spacious type of spa with more amenities.

Unfortunately as I was pulling in the manager called the let me know my masseuse had called in sick and they could only rebook my massage to start 1.5 hours after the original time. I was disappointed, but I made the best of it and thankfully had a flexible schedule that day. I ended up ordering tea and lunch from the Tea Bar. Unfortunately the matcha was out of stock, but I opted for another green tea and the crab cake. It was raining the day I was there so I didn't end up using the pool. I really like my facial with Ruth. She was amazing and had lovely energy. I would definitely rebook. My massage was okay, but despite a few requests for more pressure, I was told that was the max she could do. I have had a lot of massages, but have never encountered that before

    I really wanted my first time at Cavallo Point Spa to be an amazing experience, but it was…read moredisappointing. When I booked, I specifically requested a deep tissue massage. However, when I met my therapist, he mentioned he would be doing a signature massage without discussing pressure preferences, even though I had noted on my intake form that I prefer firm pressure. Unfortunately, the massage itself felt neither particularly deep nor relaxing, and it did not meet my expectations. Upon arriving, I was initially confused about the entrance. I entered a building with a gift shop and "tea bar," thought I was in the wrong place, and had to ask for directions. I then learned the spa entrance was behind the wall in the gift shop, which wasn't apparent. I expected the tea bar to be a special space that you might find in a Japanese tea garden, but it was a bar with a mini fridge, something you might find at a gym, and it was in the gift shop! While the waiting area was bright and airy, the changing area--which included the infrared sauna and hot tub--felt more like a college locker room than a spa environment. The treatment floor itself also had a rather sterile, hospital-like feel that didn't create a relaxing atmosphere. It would be helpful if a pre-appointment email listed available amenities and noted that guests should bring a swimsuit to use the hot tub. I checked the website beforehand and did not see this information listed or any photographs. I would have enjoyed using the hot tub had I known, but I was told I could purchase a suit in the shop instead. Lastly, the one-size sandals provided were difficult to walk in and felt unsafe and risky on the stairs after the treatment. I also found it fairly shocking that they suggest 22% as the starting point for a gratuity. Overall, I was disappointed with the experience, ambiance, and level of service provided. I sent the manager feedback and was informed that the changing room space was going to be getting an update, but I feel additional updates are needed, including making reception a dedicated space or moving it inside the door, and moving the tea bar, and making it a unique, special space. Having the reception area and the tea bar crammed together with the gift shop does not work.

    Mary was amazing! First time visiting. Will not be my last…read more My body was screaming at me. Unfamiliar with Sausalito, I went on a search and was able to book a last minute appointment. Booking was easy and quick with a note field to highlight concerns or places needing focus. First appointment of the day, two hour session. Mary sat with me, listened to my concerns and inquired about areas I felt needed the most focus. During the session, I was provided tea, a relaxing environment and Mary's presence was very calming. She was attentive, thorough, checked in with me, and gave me much needed overdue TLC - I was in heaven. If you are looking for a massage to melt the body back to a state of peace, Mary is the set of hands and other limbs needed to do just that. Mondays she is there all day. Ask for her specifically, you will not be disappointed. I will definitely return, asking for Mary, awaiting her magical touch. Thank you for an incredible session Mary, I appreciated it so very much!

We both got swedish massages with medium pressure. The pressure was very light for both of us and it didn't feel like it truly relieved much tension. Neither of us felt very relaxed after the service. However, the biggest thing for me was the sheer amount of oil used. I left with my skin feeling wet and my hair became incredibly oily from all the oil on my shoulders and neck. I want to feel moisturized after a massage but I was literally soaked in oil and I spent the rest of our anniversary with my hair looking practically wet from all of the oil. I went to a nearby cafe and used their sink to wash the oil out of my hair and it was still so oily. I've taken a shower now and I am still oily!! My phone is covered in it too. Lastly, I also got the jet lag eye treatment and it was just a small eye sheet mask for $15. Needless to say, we don't plan to come back. Very sad it didn't work out better.

Denali Building Improvements laid down the bamboo flooring for one of our large, new rooms. The job was tricky because the floor had to blend with the one in the adjacent room, which is a few inches higher. We didn't want a step because we worried that the kids would trip when walking from one room to the next. The guys did an incredible job, creating a gradual ramp between the two spaces and linking the flooring in the two rooms seamlessly. The floors look great and the difference is not even noticeable! We are grateful and will most definitely reach out with future projects!
