My husband and I came here for a couples massage and overall we had a wonderful experience. I don't know the names of our therapists, but both were great! I will say the external building and surrounding area definitely threw me off a bit but once I entered into the building I was okay. Definitely give this cute place a try! read more

I had a terrible experience with this spa. I called in to have a facial booked. They gave me a time and a day I wrote it down. No confirmation email. Then I came that day at that time and they told me it was the day prior that my appointment was, I argued that they gave me a different day. They said they had called me the day prior - I showed them I had no missed calls. They charged me for the full service even though I never received it, so they charged me for their mistake! I think that's bad service, especially cause they didn't offer me a different day and I had to pay full price for their mistake. I will not be coming back here. read more

We had a great time at Float Spa! I went with my mom on a girls trip and got the prenatal massage (32 weeks pregnant) Danny -- my masseuse -- was wonderful. my mom had Crystal who was also fantastic! I highly recommend Float read more

Hadda great massage at Float. My wife and I booked a massage for our anniversary week in Santa Barbara and we both thoroughly enjoyed our morning there. The place is quiet clean the staff is very professional and it's a very relaxing atmosphere that can't be topped. We each had a 50 min session and enjoyed errrrry minute. After they have a nice garden in back that is equally tranquil and relaxing. I fully recommend Float for a relaxing massage. Go now....just go!! read more

This might be one of the best massages I've ever had. Travis was amazing. The staff is super friendly and the environment is comfortable and relaxing. I will definitely be back. read more

I had an amazing experience booking a last minute "mellow mama" massage. I'm in my 3rd tri and woke up feeling uncomfortable and tight. I booked my massage with Lene at Santa Barbara Float and she exceeded my expectations. She is a mama and knew exactly the areas that I was sore and uncomfortable at. I felt very well taken care of and fell asleep at some points I was so relaxed. The spa was peaceful, quiet, and very clean! I will be back before this little one comes for sure. I will 100% book with lene again! read more

One of our friends recommended this place and my husband and I both had the Euphoria massage package and it was GREAT!! The massage therapist was awesome! Staff were very friendly and helpful and we felt sooooooo pampered!! We will definitely be back!! read more

If you're looking to pamper yourself and get a little R&R, Float Luxury Spa is definitely the place to go to. We booked 75 min Swedish massages for 3 at 11am and arrived early so we could change into robes and hang out in the upstairs fireplace lounge before our sessions. Lily was my massage therapist and I told her my problem areas were my lower back. She was absolutely wonderful and I felt so relaxed and loose after! Everyone had positive things to say about their experience, so we're thankful for the great staff and service here at Float Luxury Spa! read more

My wife and I each had the Euphoria massage. It truly was euphoric!! You get everything- hot stone massage, scalp treatment, dry brushing, foot scrub and massage. David was my masseuse and I can't recommend him enough! The spa its self is super clean and had a relaxed, beachy vibe. I'll be booking treatments here anytime I return to SB! read more

Exceptionally polite & friendly staff. Excellent massage. Therapist very attentive. Price point very reasonable for Oxnard.

Featured at Zachari Dunes on Mandalay Beach, Oxnard CA Beautiful hotel and spa. Will return. Be sure and ask for Alvaro for your spa treatment. Had severe shoulder area problems. Three days later, and still no problems with my shoulder. Don't miss the fun and exceptional spa. read more

Signature with Daniel. Above and beyond what I could ask or think. Perfect healing and peaceful.

I visit a lot of spa's. So maybe I am spoiled having seen some great places over the years and had incredible treatments. Float, however, was not impressive and I will not be returning. Don't get me wrong, it was fine, they ran on time, the treatments were ok, but it was just not comparable, except on the price point. They charged prices of a luxury spa, but it was not luxury. It was my birthday and I had three treatments back to back. My first practitioner was nice, but rushing a bit in my body scrub. it was like she just had three cups of coffee. Then I asked for firm pressure in my massage and she ended it telling me I should have booked deep tissue. She basically was just rubbing in lotion/oil the whole time, not a lot of actual massaging going on. I did enjoy the facial, no complaints there. It was just the place and the offerings as a whole, it was crowded and the "locker room" which is just the bathroom with one stall, one shower, and a bench, was kinda dirty. The treatment waiting was nice but again, room was crowed each time I went in. Having to go by the front door to get downstairs to the ladies was also weird and outside patio was strange, unkept, and not private. Anyway- they are fine and trying, but you can fine better for that price. read more

Great spa. Clean. Wonderful staff. However a bachelorette party was going on and made the bathroom so full that getting in to get changed or use the facility was difficult. Then their chatter and noise outside during the entire one hour massage was anything but relaxing. I recommend not booking guests when an event like that is happening at the same time. Or tell the women to be quiet. If you book, make sure none of that is happening during your time there. read more

Fantastic location and amazing Therapist. So relaxing and enjoyable. Best masseuse ever!

Very nice spa! Spa was clean and they had a nice area to relax with a fireplace. Kudos going out to my masseuse, Daniel. He was fabulous. I went in for an 80 minute Deep Tissue massage. And I came out so relaxed and tension free. We went in for a Girlfriend weekend treat and we felt pampered. The front desk gals were so friendly and welcoming. They also have some cute purchases, skin products, bags, books, etc. in the front reception area to look through. The only reason for the four stars is that we had outdoor cabana massages. It would have been nice to undress, get in a robe and then go outside to the cabana. Instead, I found myself undressing outside. Not terribly bad but I am klutzy and had a fear of falling. read more

Booked a body service while I was in town for a wedding. Cannot say enough good things about my experience. Daniel was UH-MAZING!

Very nice atmosphere. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The appointment began on time. The massage room was clean and well appointed. The deep massage was both relaxing and invigorating, a treat to my sore, stiff body. Jim S. read more

Excellent experience and great environment. Definitely will visit again when in Santa Barbara! read more

Everything about this place is great. The lounge to sip some tea and water with a nice warm flame really set the vibe. It was the first time I've ever had a massage, better yet a couples massage and they really made me and my girlfriend feel comfortable. Next time I'm back in SB I'll be booking another massage. read more

Three of us came here for my mom's 70th birthday. Each of us had the best massages of our life. Such attentive and skilled masseuses. The spa itself is spotless clean and relaxing, with a fireplace upstairs that we sat around post massage in our robes, just chatting. The backyard is beautiful and peaceful. Can't wait to come back! read more

I would strongly discourage anyone from supporting this business. I had a 75-minute massage scheduled for 5 pm, a Father's Day gift from my two grown children. I planned my day around it. Then I locked my keys in the car on my way and showed up 20 minutes late, because I had to wait for AAA to open my car. When I arrived, I was led to the massage room, where the therapist told me I had only 45 minutes left. (The person at the front desk had not told me this.) I thought that meant that they had to close in 45 minutes and that the rest of the massage would have to come later. So I said that I'd rather not split it up and would prefer to reschedule when I could do the whole thing. When I went downstairs to reschedule, I found that I had misunderstood, and that the 15 minutes that had been taken off the time was not available anymore. OK, I could understand that. I WAS late. I was told that the therapist had to be compensated for her time. I asked how much time it had taken to get there and home. I was told it was not my concern as to how much time the therapist had taken. I was told that the entire amount of the gift certificate would be charged: $160. This was unacceptable, so I asked to speak with the manager, who was not there. Eventually, Alicia (the manager) and I spoke on the phone, or rather, she spoke and then spoke over me. She had already cashed in or canceled (or whatever the right word is) the total amount ($160) of my gift certificate. Apparently her employees told her that I had been very, very confrontational. In fact, yes, I had "confronted" (as in pushed back against) the fact that they were planning to cancel the whole thing for being late, but I did not use bad language, was not condescending, said nothing personal, and told them that I knew they did not make the rules but that this seemed fundamentally unfair and not right, which is why I asked to speak tot the manager. On the phone with Alicia, she said that all the rules about being late, etc, were covered in the materials I had received. First, I did not know I would receive any forms to fill out or an email. I was on vacation and out of the house all day and didn't look at my email until the following day. I made the appt on the day of the appt, so might have been nice, and good service, to make sure I knew there was an email I absolutely needed to look at before arriving. Having received no such indication, I didn't see the email about their draconian rules until it was too late. On the phone, Alicia told me that her employees whom I'd met were both excellent, and that she always backed her employees (an honorable impulse but not always right) and took their word that I was confrontational and, so, no massage for me. If I miss a doctor's appt, I'm charged some service fee, understandably. But at Float, you might well get charged as if you had used the entire service, when you had in fact used none. Alicia eventually hung up on me. I'll not be going back. This is a human-to-human service. This was a Father's Day gift. I experienced an unfortunate and, thankfully, rare event of locking the keys in the car. No quarter was given. No compensation offered. read more

Kelsie gave me an amazing, relaxing massage! I will definitely go back! Highly recommend!

i Travel a lot and get massages in many place and I always have low expectations but my massage today with Lenea? was exceptional!!!!! If I lived in Santa Barbara shed be my monthly therapist!!!!! read more

The service was as requested and punctual. However, the pressure of the massage and the massage itself was average at best for what I paid. They were kind and professional but since I was getting a deep tissue massage, I was expecting that. I was also hoping for a full spa with amenities but none. They didn't have anything but a small room. I just don't think it was worth the money. read more

I was gifted a massage for my birthday and it was one of the best I've had. Daniel is amazing and I would definitely ask for him.

I went in for a deep tissue massage with Maria and it did not disappoint. I felt like I was put through a human pasta machine in the best way. read more

They chose the right name for this spa - I felt like I floated out of there after my 90 minute Euphoria massage with Devin. He is truly talented and so knowledgeable. I feel like I have a new neck and back. Definitely going back soon! Highly recommend. A+++++ read more

I've been twice this year to Float Spa while visiting SB and have had outstanding massages! Service is friendly, accommodating and very relaxing. Great vibes from everyone who works there. I happened to be booked with Daniel both times - he's got great energy and is very tuned in to where to focus for my very sore muscles. One note: no sauna/steam and only 1 shower. read more

Such an oasis with incredibly talented staff! I had an amazing massage from Tanya who dug into my tensest muscles in an efficient and ultimately soothing way! And then had a fantastic facial from Tatiana who also gave me specific info on what types of treatments to never do to my face again- lol! True gems and it made me wish I lived in Santa Barbara just to have Float in my backyard! read more

Wonderful ladies who meet and greet you with a warm welcome and a relaxed atmosphere. Jessica gave an excellent message. The Euphoria treatment was just what I needed along with the camomile tea. Thank you! read more

Such a lovely gem of a spa, right downtown but low key and not obvious. The small building manages to house several comfortable treatment rooms and offers a decent range of services too. The upstairs waiting room is alluring and relaxing. I have enjoyed every massage and facial I've had there, and appreciated being so close to easy parking, restaurants, etc. read more

Loved the massage, on time and the right pressure People was very nice and professional read more

Great staff and service. They were able to fit me in on short notice the day before Thanksgiving for a desperately needed massage. It was all exactly what I needed - a super calming and peaceful place. I arrived a little early to unwind and felt at home. I was in a lot of pain and requested a deep tissue. Lene was a godsend - without saying much, she seemed to intuitively know exactly what was tight and how to unlock it. I've had a lot of good massages, but she is hands down the best! read more

The ladies masseurs were excellent. Enjoyed the massages thoroughly. The facility was mediocre. Needs upgrade.

We went here for a couples massage and my partner and I agreed it was nowhere worth the $400 for the 120 min massage. We got deep tissue massages but it felt like we had two amateur masseusses rubbing their knuckles against our bodies the entire time. I'm used to masseuses massaging out knots and really being in tune with my body and how to heal it. My fiancée and I both walked away neither feeling healed or more relaxed. Waste of money and time. There are much better spas out there. They were nice though. read more

Part of any vacation for me always includes a visit to the local day spa. This visit is amongst the top 5. My esthetician was quite knowledgeable and very easy to talk to and with. I'm normally not very talkative during a facial but I felt quite at ease, and uncharacteristically chatty. I had the Luxe 80 minute facial. The whole experience was enjoyable and relaxing. When I next visit Santa Barbara, I will definitely plan another visit to Float Luxury Spa. read more
