Booked a couples' massage and overall had a nice experience. When you arrive, you have to knock on the door and call the number posted, and someone will come open the door for you. The package we purchased included a hot tub soak followed by the couples' massage. We also received complimentary wine during the soak, which was a nice touch. The only downside was that once we came out of the hot tub, the back area was swarming with mosquitoes, which definitely took away from the experience a little. After our massages, we were served a nice charcuterie board, which was a great way to finish everything off. Overall, it was a relaxing experience with a few things that could be improved. read more

I looooved my massage and the welcoming atmosphere of the La Dolce Vita spa + staff. Such a lovely relaxing experience and Jaime gave me a wonderful massage, really the best massage of my life and I book massages when I travel on vacation to different countries in additional to many places in LA that I've tried and he really outshined my past massages I've experienced. If you're reading this Jaime thank you so much you're really excellent at what you do and I'll be back and will refer my family to you. Signed, Lauren :) read more

A very unassuming little slice of paradise I just had an amazing experience at La Dolce Vita Spa. I booked the Love Yourself for Two/Couples by calling Saturday morning. Was able to book the same day. The package is $360 ($10 coupon) for a 30 min jacuzzi soak, a 45 min body scrub, and a 60 min massage. For two people, this is a great deal. Parking: circled 2 blocks and found a street parking spot. If I were running late or if the streets were packed, I would pay the $10 to park at the Shell gas station across the street. Jacuzzi: In the back outdoor patio, there are partitioned areas for jacuzzis and treatment rooms. It's a little tight walking through but it adds to the coziness. Swimsuits are optional. They provided us with slippers (about a size 8/9 women's) and a robe (one size). My partner and I had a glass of rose and soaked for about 20 min. Body scrub: feels amazing after the jacuzzi. The scrub is a little rough on the skin to get the exfoliation, but in a pleasant way. They do a good job of covering you with a thin towel, and don't go too deep in crevices like you would experience at a Korean spa. My skin felt so soft afterwards. Massage: after soaking in the jacuzzi and getting scrubbed on a treatment bed, we were put in the outdoor massage area. My masseuse was Sarah, and she did wonders on my shoulders and neck, which were areas I asked for focus. She was surgical with finding pressure points and working them out. I my shoulders still feel so relaxed from her work earlier today. My partner had Jamie as his masseuse and was equally pleased with his massage. After the treatments, we were led back to the front lounge where we each got a chocolate covered strawberry and water. Jamie, Sarah, Laura, and Vanessa were so hospitable and professional. I definitely felt welcomed here and can't recommend La Dolce Vita enough. read more

La Dolce Vita Spa - Massage Near Me - Long Beach, California

La Dolce Vita Spa is truly a gem in Long Beach, and Shelley is hands down the BEST massage therapist. I walked in with extremely tight shoulders and could barely move without pain. By the end of my massage, I had noticeably better mobility, and by the next morning, I was completely back to normal. Shelley not only worked magic on my muscles, but she also explained which muscles were affected and gave helpful aftercare tips--super educational and healing all in one. This was my second time getting a massage here, and I can confidently say I'll be booking with Shelley every time from now on. The spa itself is also nice--after your service, they treat you to a drink and a sweet treat, which makes the experience feel special. You can choose between indoor or outdoor massage options, which adds a really nice, relaxing vibe. Highly recommend to anyone looking for real relief and a luxurious experience for a reasonable price. read more

I don't want to say how great the experience was because it could really make it hard for me to get an appointment. Thank you Laura! and the extraordinary masseur! read more

My husband and I went in for a couple's massage (hot tub + massage package with champagne/treats). The woman at the front who greeted us and another patron went to go set up the other patron's massage tent. When she came back, she saw the 3 of us on our phones and repeatedly commented "what a sad world it has become" because we were not socially interacting with each other. Then she proceeded to say, "In the past, I would introduce people to each other and they would talk." I replied, "Had you introduced us, we would have chatted." I was trying to put the onus on her due to the negative comment she kept making. She again repeated what a sad world we live in after my response. Speaking to my husband about this, he also found her comment to be very off-putting. Staff should be trained to be more socially professional. Now onto my massage: it was just OKAY. My masseuse was really nice, but I could smell a hint of cigarette on him, especially whenever he spoke, and that is not pleasant when you're trying to enjoy a nice, relaxing massage. He also had one sharp corner of his nail that scratched me when he worked on my neck and shoulders. It wasn't a super sharp scratch, but noticeable enough that it bothered me. The massage itself was lackluster and it felt as if my masseuse was not well-skilled or is still a trainee. They served us chocolate covered strawberries afterwards, which were delicious. I personally wouldn't recommend this place to anyone and don't see myself ever going back. read more

Love this place! Whenever visiting the area, try to go. The 2 hour package is worth it for the soak and massage combo with the plate of snacks and tea in the lounge! It's not the corporate big box chain feel of spas like BW or Mass Envy, it's got a unique small business lovingly made feel. Love the ambiance, vibes and great service right in the city close to the beach. read more

I haven't been to this spa in years, but I really wanted to take advantage of the Sagittarius special, which was 25% off the coconut body wrap and 90 minute massage. Easy online booking! Called the spa to be let inside when I arrived and we were offered champagne while we checked in, which was a nice perk! Shortly after, Victor took us to our outdoor treatment room, which had a heater and relaxing music. We were slathered all over with the coconut cream and left to marinate in plastic wrap for about 30 minutes. I was in heaven! The massage wasn't the same style as I'm used to but it wasn't bad. Just could have used more actual massaging and less pressing on points and softly moving my limbs around. Victor was really nice and professional though, I appreciated that. read more

I was uncomfortable with my massage. I will never have a male massage me again. I let him know my shoulder and neck pain. I had a lot of knots. He only worked on one. Focused way too much on "massaging" my entire back & on my arms & hands. I don't understand why so much time was worked on my hands. I don't appreciate ever touching my thigh when I selected a computer upper back massage and foot massage. It said it would focus on my foot and my calf. My calves were never massaged. And the foot massage was weak. I didn't feel better at all which really sucked after spending $125. I do appreciate the male masseuse stepping out when I was obviously uncomfortable turning over while he was there. My friend Jessica has sciatica and her massage person made her back hurt when she repeatedly told her to avoid a certain area. As nice as everyone was this is just my honest review. We won't be coming back. She left there with an ice pack on her back. BTW they don't ask you questions about preferences, focus areas, what massage you selected to confirm. We both spoke up on our own to make sure we weee getting the correct massage. Which at the end of the day it didn't matter because it's like they did what they wanted to do. The massage description wasn't being fulfilled. Additionally, I didn't appreciate that he asked if I was ticklish? Then proceeds to touch my armpits because that's y he asked he said. I've never had anyone have to touch my armpits before. And when he's at my feet he tickles my feet. It was duckin weird. Reading another one of these comments about someone receiving a sensual massage maybe this is the kind of place it is. Cuz where was the actual work on my neck and shoulders to get all the knots I have out. And my body felt uncomfortable for a reason. I felt like he was trying to graze my boobs at one point from the side. I didn't let him, I'd tense up and move and then I felt like at one point he was trying to lift me up. YES to see my breasts. Again, I didn't let him. At first, I thought I was over thinking it but reading the rest of the comments made me feel validated. No wonder he spent so much time on my arms. Disgusting place. read more

I called for a foot massage to surprise my mother after a long day of walking. But... we were staying at the Queen Mary and I requested an outcall to our room on the ship. At 8:30 pm. They sent Laura who had amazing shea butter and incredible spa music. Mom actually fell asleep by the end of her massage! Laura, thank you for making Mom's 94th birthday so memorable and exceptional! You are awesome read more

I was assaulted during my massage by the male massage therapist on June 7th. This business had my review removed after I posted what happened to me. Do not go here. read more

The location seems nice when you walk in and the staff is friendly. However, take into consideration massages are done in the backyard each table has a tent for privacy. Mine was done close to the neighbors so I got to listen to a man yelling on the phone during half of my massage. My massage was done by someone who did not appear to have much background on massages (male). I get massages regularly and I was disappointed by the lack of their experience. My friend also got a massage and they reported theirs went really well. Not terrible but far from great. read more

On entrance, the owner was very nice. Nothing felt off but such a strange massage experience and now my back has been in pain for two days. More importantly, it was very sensual and the 'stretching' of my legs was super fkn weird. I should have spoken up but I got in my head that I was being dramatic. I hadn't had a massage in years and previously done thru medical offices. I feel stupid for giving him a tip out of obligation because the more I thought about my experience, the less comfortable I felt with it. I see other reviewers have had the same experience, if not worse. I have learned how to get thru uncomfortable situations by being personable and chatty and that's what I did. Maybe that's the kind of spa this is, one movement away from being touched inappropriately or given a happy ending. I will never get another male massage or go here again. read more

This little place is a diamond in the rough. My husband and I celebrated our 20th wedding Anniversary here. I found them on Google and gave them a try.

We asked for 2 women masseuses and they made that happen no problem. Definitely will be going back. Thanks again read more

Loved this place! When booking it was so easy & fun! Although when she asked what colors and cake I would want I assumed the place or the tent or areas we were in would have gold birthday decorations like I had asked on the phone but honestly it was $25 add on and everything is expensive nowadays so I kinda figured it wouldn't be as I expected, other than that everything was amazing, my boyfriend loved his massage, the jacuzzi time was fun, & the complimentary snacks & champagne throughout was the cherry on top. The staff is so nice & welcoming & always of assistance! Definitely recommending to friends & family & planning to come back! read more

Called last minute & they informed me they had a couples scrub & 90 min massage, how lucky!!! We got there a little early because I was told there would be a place to lounge before our service (this wasn't the case due to the rain) but when we came in the lady who greeted us was like "oh my gosh, you're really really really early" which was strange because it was only 30 mins. We got our scrubs first & the room was very insulated for being outside which was a huge plus because it was cold & raining & the water they rinse you with is nice & hot. After this we were told to come back to the front, we got chocolate covered strawberries & champagne which was ok. During the massage my therapist asked me if I was comfortable & I said "No" but he kept digging his hand in the same uncomfortable spot on my neck. He also had long nails & scratched me a few times. Not the best experience. My bf said that his massage was underwhelming & that she rubbed his shins harder than focusing on his back which has knots. read more

Got a much needed couples massage while in town for a three day musical festival... so happy we did! 10 out of 10 would recommend. Our masseurs were Mark and Victor... and they were AWESOME! Victor was also the front desk greeter and was friendly and informative. Mark was my masseur and I can't say enough good things about his demeanor, knowledge and professionalism. If I lived in Long Beach I would be a regular customer for sure. Super unassuming from the outside... super cute & comfortable inside. Really reasonably priced too wahoo is hard to find these daychhtttttk industry these days.... 100 ft read more

This was not it. Three of us booked massages. Two of us had gotten various kinds of massages(Swedish, deep tissue, thai, sports, some versions of cranio-sacral massages etc.) from professional massage therapists for over 15 years and you can generally tell who has training and who doesn't. They do not seem to have any trainings. We booked deep tissue massage, not sure what the superficial gentle rubbing on skin, or lightly holding touch on random parts of the body had to do with actual deep tissue massage. When we got there, the door was locked, we didn't start till well after 10 mins past the hour. (To their credit, they did go past the allotted time to try to make up for it.) Nobody asked what we would like to focus on, or anything. My massage therapist spent majority of the time adjusting his seat and pushing the entire massage bed one side to another to adjust his chair better, as well as walking around the massage bed for some reason. When we requested that we would prefer more pressure, they barely responded and changed nothing. It was a very strange and non-therapeutic experience. They did give us strawberries and cucumber water after, so all good? read more

It breaks my heart to post this review, as I loved my first experience with this spa, but... I booked a birthday session, that all I can say is I don't know if it was the combination of services and/or the "new" style of massage that turned an otherwise relaxing session into a sensual/sexual unrelaxing 45mins. If you're into this style of massage, dm me and I'll tell you what I booked. If you're the manager/owner and this isn't your intention for services, I'd be happy to talk to you about what happened. It's unfortunate; I really wanted to keep this spa as it's close to home and a local business! read more

As a working mother to a 2 year old and currently 20 weeks pregnant. I rarely get time to myself. However as soon as i stepped inside this spa, it immediately made up for 2 years of relaxation. I hadn't even sat down, nor fully emerged myself inside the building. I was greeted with a warm welcome from the owner Laura, followed by a comforting waiting room. The mood was that of me sitting by the fire in my childhood home, comfort. There's no other word to describe how warm the atmosphere was. I nearly fell asleep just waiting for my massage. I was then greeted by David and when i say 2 years of tension was unleashed from my body is an actual understatement. The ambiance of entering the massage room and onto the massage table was that of a cloud of warmth, the gentle but firm touch was that of the Gods. I entered La Dolce Vita Spa myself however I left in an entirely new body. Needless to say, this was a 10/10 experience for pregnant people, working people and anyone who is looking to get a complete reset in under an hour and 30 minutes. read more

10/10 amazing massage! I booked a couples massage here with snacks and was able to get in the same day! My partner and I went and were greeted with champagne and a very friendly staff. Once we finished our champagne, they led us to a room with 2 massage beds and gave us both a relaxing and tension relieving massage. Afterward, we had charcuterie and more champagne definitely going again soon read more

Honestly it was the worst "spa" experience I've ever had. It was locked when we arrived. We knocked and waited and knocked and waited. They offered tea but they were out of it so we got water instead, which they didn't refill although it was hot and my glass was empty. The salt scrub smelled oddly fishy and I couldn't wait to get it off my skin when I got home. The "rinse" was tossing buckets (plastic mop buckets) of water at me. The staff gave poor directions about what to expect and there was no security for our items and staff moved our purses and clothing and keys while we were in the tub. It was a stressful unhappy experience and felt very janky and unprofessional. It was almost comical how bad it was. I'm not sure the staff was certified in any way. The scrub felt like they were trying to peel my skin off too. Just yikes all the way through. read more

In town for a mom getaway and treated myself to a massage and body scrub. It was definitely a treat. Very professional staff, Victor was my masseur and he was great. Perfect pressure, made me feel comfortable and taken care of. If in town again I will definitely make another visit! read more

I absolutely loved my massage . I never had a man masseuse and baby........ it was theeee best ever. I came here with my cousin for her birthday and we both enjoyed it . I hate I forgot my masseuse name but it's only one tall guy with a beard and ponytail he was awesome. Nice ambience and scenery. The only thing that got me was I had to ask for my champagne it wasn't offered . But everything else was nice and I had a good time. I will definitely be back. BTW my cousin enjoyed her masseuse as well.. can't wait until my next appointment read more

This place is AMAZING! This was my first time here and hands down is now one of my absolute favorites, from champagne and wine to the chocolate covered strawberries. I had a amazing gentleman by the name of Edward who went above and beyond to make the experience amazing. I cannot sing his praises enough his customer service was not only top notch but his massage was amazing. I go for massages regularly and I will definitely be back requesting him. The vibe is beautiful and peaceful. 10 out of 10 will definitely be recommending to all my friends. read more
