Theres a quiet boat and a talking boat and my group tried the hot tubs and pools in both. It's very relaxing and I'm glad we went but I do wish there was an area where taking photos was okay so I could have taken some photos with my friends for memories. All in all I'd go back but do NOT forget flip flops because I went without and it was very very painful walking around on all of the mats between ships and I didn't want to pay $30 for a pair of flip flops. The restaurant could use some more vegan friendly options, but they had a gluten free menu which was nice for our friend that was Celiac. The portions were very small though so I left still hungry.

I've never actually been to a real spa before (I've had facials and massages but never a full…read morelike... spa experience) and so I figured while on my very snowy December trip to Montreal now was the time. The fact that this spa is on a boat and half of it was outdoors was the appeal! So we booked just the water circuit (no extras, just saunas, steam rooms and hot tubs) to see if this was even something we'd like. Turns out the December visit was the way to go! It wasn't packed at all, and turns out that sitting in a hot tub while the snow falls on your face is actually a top ten life experience. It was cold as heck out, mind you, but somehow you never feel chilly when you're going in and out of saunas and hot tubs. I did wish some of the relaxation rooms were a bit warmer, or there was an ability to swap out a soaking towel at some point, but I was never uncomfortable. Everything was clean and people around us were respectful. I loved the no phone policy and definitely chilled out to staring into this strangely brutalist bay. David Lynch relaxation vibes. The best was the floor where you could sit in a porthole window -- only wish we had discovered it earlier! I would totally come back here and check out some of their other offerings. Dunno, might even aim for a winter trip again because it was just that nice!

One of the girls actually reminded me I still had an extra 10% off, which was a nice surprise. I picked up two perfume sample sets from a brand I've been wanting to try, so I was really happy with that. Also loved their new checkout system they can actually ring you up while you're waiting in line if you're paying by card. One of the associates pulled me aside and checked me out on her phone, which made everything way faster. Overall, really smooth experience. Would definitely go back.

I'm not new to massages, in fact I love them and make a point of going at least 5 time a year usually. I enjoyed my massage here with Simona. She was tough in the areas that needed it and released some of the tension I was feeling. It's a cute, small "spa" in the old port. I wish the entrance space was larger and there was parking included. The hammam part is small and would feel cramped for more than 2 people. They bring you tea at the end which I thought was a cute touch. Enjoyed my experience and would go again!

I was in a desperate need for some self-love and I was treated to a 90 minute Hot Stone Massage and an advanced facial. The combination of the massage and facial was just the perfect treat. The Hot Stone was soothing and relaxing. 60 minutes would have been too short, 90 minutes is just the perfect amount of time for it. During the facial, the aesthetician dedicated good part of the time taking out some of the blackheads on my face. After the facial, my skin felt plump and glowing. Recommend this spa, anyone looking to take 2-3 hours off their day to pamper themselves.

Think the gent who assisted was Antoine (shorter, chestnut hair, and great skin, of course). Very warm and extremely knowledgeable.

Thought I was just popping in for a serum, but he took the time to show me several options, and I bought more than expected :-) Knowing that I was visiting, he even offered me an Aesop guide to local restaurants.

On one side of the room they have gift packages and each comes with a sleeve that has unique artwork and a poem. Sadly, everything is very expensive and I can't justify paying for any of it. I let my sales associate know this and she said it wasn't a problem. She gave me a catalog and some samples before I left just in case I ever wanted to treat myself. Excellent customer service!

Regular prices are quite high, but that is usually the case for imported cosmetics. I totally lucked out on my last visit and scored some mascara on clearance for like 95% off! I got 2 Innisfree mascaras (they call them microcara because the brush is tiny/micro, lol) for $0.99 each! The regular price of one of them (the waterproof one) was $19.99 and the regular price of the other one (the non-waterproof one) was $16.99. The best before date was 3 months from the time that I bought them (which explains why they were on clearance). You're technically supposed to replace your mascara every 3 months anyway, so no big deal. If you like Korean cosmetics you should check out C&C Korean Cosmetics!

When you pay $70 +tip for a mens haircut at a salon, there is a minimum bar of customer service & attention -- every single time that bar has not been met. If you're available between 11am - 4pm to patiently deal with front desk staff while they figure out how to use their systems, re-repeat your name, phone number, email, schedule and your preferred stylist (and call you repeatedly), and then find no slots for you in the next month.. this place is for you. If you feel that $70 (+tip!) warrants customer service that goes above and beyond and offers flexibility to your 9-5 working schedule **without charging a "no-show" fee after you call to say you're late and get the answering machine** then you might want to look elsewhere. To the management: I recommend a review of front desk staff policies & interactions. The two front desk staff seem more interested in Instagram than customers. PS. Haircuts are OK, Anthony is quite good..

I was accompanying 2 other female guests, and as a guy, I felt quite awkward entering the salon but thought I would just look around to enable me to write about this new business. Awkward is probably an understatement. May be I just did not want to be caught in a pedicure chair. Is this a guy thing or what? Never felt so welcome and they utterly convinced me that I should have a pedicure which I graciously accepted. "I am embarrassed and should have cut my toe nails" I said. "Oh don't worry " was the reply. "in fact, it's better that you don't, as we will get your nails clipped, shaped and polished the professional way." Feeling awkward being a guy going in for a pedicure? Let me tell you that I was so wrong! So very wrong. Their motto is "we've got the highest hygiene standards in the beauty biz." Just a note that we have worked for a hygiene business for over 20 years and I can assure you that they take hygiene very seriously. Pedicure is about having healthy feet. It's a pleasure that everyone should experience. Life is meant to be fun. If you fancy indulgence then let your subconscious guide you, and The Ten Spot will have your feet scrubbed until they are soft. Any gunk hiding between your toe nails and skin will get painless removed. Your feet will be scoured with special soap and scrubbing salt until they reach a level of softness that you didn't know existed. The gentle foot massage improves circulation in your feet and stimulates the blood circulation and rejuvenates your entire body. Finally, the lotion on the feet, ankles and heals just buffs away the dead and dry peely skin. The place is ultra clean, bright and inviting. This is indeed a business that focuses on customer satisfaction, and leaving you feeling totally pampered. Guys, go for it. Your feet will thank you.
