I gotta be honest. I've only ever gotten a few massages in my life. But I really am unimpressed…read morewith this place. One of my biggest qualms is that it does not feel luxurious like a spa at all. When you get in there, it looks more like the backrooms than a tranquil, beautiful retreat. One massage here I was surprised to get an elbow in my buttcrack, but overlooked it and I survived, most the massage was fine. I can't remember that lady's name. This latest one, I walked out with so much flippin' lotion IN MY HAIR. No one ever wants that!! I was pretty upset about that. She also stopped early, it was probably more of a 50-min instead of a 60-min massage. I think that lady's name was Lily. Again, not the end of the world but a bit annoying. I don't think I'd recommend this place. But I do know a couple people that love it and maybe if you haven't experienced better this place will suffice.

The whole experience was very luxurious. From the moment I walked in greeted by Ali with hot tea or water.... And the total relaxation atmosphere....I knew I was in the right place.

Something I really liked and appreciated is that don't try to upsell you. I was very interested in purchasing a couple of products and Kenzie took the time to educate me and what I especially liked is she reminded me that a little goes a long way so that my products last longer. I highly recommend Ocean Spa if you're looking to be pampered and totally relaxed!!!!

When I first arrived, I had a little trouble finding the front entrance because there are several buildings on the property. Once I found my way in, I was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful and peaceful the grounds are. There is a lovely tropical area with a koi pond that adds to the relaxing atmosphere. They also have a really nice gift shop with so many unique items to choose from, including teas, crystals, lotions, and other fun wellness and self-care products. It was definitely worth taking some time to browse. I had a wonderful experience with my massage. It was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what I needed. My niece also had a massage there and had a great experience as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my first visit to Four Moons Spa and can definitely see why it's considered a hidden gem. I will absolutely be back!

From the moment you arrive, it feels like you've stepped into a serene healing portal. The lush gardens, koi pond, mature trees, cozy outdoor spaces, and thoughtful details create an atmosphere that immediately invites you to slow down and breathe. I had an amazing massage with Violet, who struck the perfect balance between relaxation and therapeutic care. She listened to exactly what my body needed and I left feeling completely renewed. Thank you, Violet! My facial with Alexis was one of the best I've ever experienced. The highlights were the lymphatic drainage massage, the cooling ice globes, and the incredible hydration my skin received. My face felt sculpted, refreshed, and absolutely glowing afterward. Thank you, Alexis! The spa itself is just as memorable as the treatments. We enjoyed relaxing in the tranquil outdoor spaces surrounded by greenery, the peaceful koi pond, and the calming ambiance that makes it easy to forget you're only minutes from San Diego.

Also, it is a small business, with only two therapists and so feels more personal. The great reviews are well deserved! Jasmine was my therapist and made me feel at ease. She was friendly, professional, highly-skilled and intuitive. I'm a marathon runner and not a stranger to massage and this was one of the best, if not the best, massages I've ever experienced. I booked a 60 min Swedish massage but I was recovering from a migraine and Jasmine customized the massage accordingly to target points of tension. She used oils as per the massage description on the website, and I didn't feel greasy afterwards. I felt rejuvenated, and rid of my knots and tension. There are two rooms, nicely set up and both surprisingly big. A wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

I booked a bikini wax and did not state a preference for the technician. Riley ended up doing my Brazilian and she was excellent! She talked to me throughout to distract me from the pain, but honestly it was not that painful. I was surprised that my skin was not super red afterward. She offered me a rosewater wipe to use prior the waxing and the treatment room was clean. She did a thorough job and used an oil by the brand Fur to finish, and I decided to purchase the travel rollerball, which totally helped eliminate any ingrown hairs or red bumps that were trying to come out. I kept using the rollerball for weeks after, and no ingrowns! I shopped around the boutique after my treatment and was astounded at the reasonable prices on the super cute clothes, jewelry, and other accessories and fun things in the shop. I left with a dress, a couple cute tops, a bracelet and earrings by Scout (love that brand), and a travel candle, plus the Fur rollerball. I believe the Brazilian bikini wax was $65, and I left a nice tip and walked away with fun new stuff without spending a ton over my gift card amount of $115. Side note--the toilet would not flush when I used their restroom, and let them know, so they shut it down for customer use while I was there. I think it's an older building and perhaps sensitive plumbing. This did not affect my experience in any way. Overall I recommend Riley and this awesome little boutique if you live near the Carlsbad area or are visiting!

The Lomi Lomi massage is the best! I felt so relaxed and pampered. I had the enzyme facial with Anne, the products used were excellent and my skin was glowing.

Kolena was AMAZING, ask for her if you want a great massage. This place is huge. Now look.... This facility is beautiful, but it's possible the affluent community that it draws may have some higher than thou expectations. I preferred to enjoy the amenities inside the women's area so I could see less nip and tucked old women who were trying to be 20 years younger than they were. My favorite spa is Mokara at Omni in Austin and this blew Mokara out the water so I have a new favorite. The food was delicious. And since we were not staying at the hotel, we valet with the hotel to go to the park and the spa validated parking so that's a nice benefit. I can't wait to visit again. This was the most aesthetically beautiful property. Service was good and my massage room was very minimal but I do wish the massage tables came heated, since it got cold in my room. While my massage had heated parts like a warm neck pillow and a warm washcloth to wipe off the oil, I still got a little chilly and requested a blanket on top of my sheet. Just a suggestion.
