My girlfriend and I decided to get a massage while here in BA. My understanding is that spa culture…read moreis not very common in BA and except for a few places the majority of spas are in hotels which will cost you a good bit of coin. We saw Nirvana had a couple of good local reviews so we decided to check it out - we decided on the 2 hour package - which included a mix of Swedish, Deep Tissue, hot stone, and a chocolate and gold facial, and had the couples massage. I thought the masseuse did a good job, he focused on my knots and tight areas, however did not spend really any time on my legs which was disappointing since it was supposed to be full body. I had never done hot stones but I didn't have the patience for it so they finished off with a massage instead of the stones.
The place itself is clean and very zen like, not the typical spa you would find in the US (it's a small apartamento converted to a spa).
All in all id say it's worth the price - but id recommend that you are prescriptive with what you want - they seem to be flexible.
