    This spa was phenomenal! I received a signature Mokara massage, that came with a free under eye mask and glass of champagne while I waited!! The spa was clean and relaxing, and every person I met was incredible kind! Will definitely be returning again!!

    Inside the women's locker room. It's equipped with a dry sauna, mini jacuzzi, shower, and restroom.

    Perfect way to spend my birthday! This place is just absolutely amazing! I went here for a massage on my bday and had the most awesome experience. Not only is everyone super nice/friendly, but at the end of the massage they gave me a birthday card with sweet messages signed by the entire team coupled with a lovely candle. The ambiance, relaxation room, sweets, and mimosas/drinks were just heavenly and the fact that you get to pick your own aromatherapy scent was just the icing on the cake. I am so glad I chose to come here for my special day and will definitely be back. Kudos to operating a superb spa, Mokara!

    Awesome experience. Thanks "Mokara Dpa Team"!

    15th year wedding anniversary celebrated at the Omni. The hotel staff treated us like family. Left personal note from the room manager and a complimentary tiramisu in the room. Separate review on that.... This on site spa is class-A. Polite and attentive staff. Punctual and sincerely interested in the client. We did 90 minute couples massage and treated like royalty. All necessary toiletries are provided down to a toothbrush and personal razor. Feeling like a noodle we were so relaxed, we left the reception area after thanking them for their service. The receptionist said, "Mr. Speed, wait. We have a card for you". See photo. Over the top Team Mokara!! We'll be back.

    Wonderful!!! This was a treat and it was beyond relaxing!! You kinda like your in your own oasis being pampered. There are drinks and sweet treats to help relax you more. The facial and the massages here are among the best. The robes are plush and so comfortable, I can't say enough about this place. Very nice.

    Ask the Community - Mokara Spa

    Is there a steam room and/or dry sauna? Is the heated pool area large enough for several people?

    Yes. It is great!!

    Is there anything couples can do together other than the massage room? As in, lounging area, sauna, etc?

    The lounge seats multiple areas but is a quiet space. The jacuzzi and sauna are in the gendered locker rooms so if you're a same sex couple then yes.

It was relaxing, calm, and the pressure was actually perfect for the tightness in my back. Me and my partner really enjoyed that part of the experience. The wax service is where I had a different experience. I'm used to getting waxed regularly and haven't had issues in the past. I booked a Brazilian wax, and while the technician was nice, the service didn't go well for me personally. She went over the same areas multiple times, and it got to the point where my skin became very irritated. In one area, the wax caused my skin to lift and I did bleed, which has never happened to me before. She mentioned I may be sensitive, which I understand, but even so, I've never experienced that level of irritation or skin being pulled before. I also still had patches of hair left afterward, so I didn't feel the service was fully completed the way I expected. She did discount $10 from the service, but I still left feeling like the experience wasn't what I paid for or expected. The place itself is nice and the staff were polite, and I don't want this to come off as bashing anyone. I'm just sharing my personal experience so others are aware. Overall, I would return for the massage, but I personally would not get the waxing service again.

From booking to communications after, the whole process was so easy. When we arrived, we were provided a space to securely leave our clothes and belongings, given comfy robes (which were more than large enough to accommodate us), and taken to our therapy room. The full body scrub and mud mask we received left us feeling cleaner than ever before. The therapists very excitedly showed us how much dead skin was coming off our bodies. While my wife's therapist was a trainee who wasn't as vigorous with her scrubbing as mine was, both were still very thorough and attentive to every inch of our skin. When they say your skin will glow after, they don't lie! Our skin looked and felt great after about a 90 minute session. The delicious baklava and tea after the session was a nice way to enjoy a moment more of calm together before we left. This facility is entirely service based, meaning there are no lounge spaces like hot tubs, pools, steam rooms, etc. All the same, this was a great experience to have before our special day.

This is a great place to do either. The first hour and a half in the men's area rotating between the steam room, sauna hot tub and cold plunge, losing track of the time and just soaking it. The sauna and the steam room each held around 5 to 7 people, respectively. Fortunately I didn't need to push the capacity limits since the crowd was extremely light, especially for for a weekend. I strolled around and checked out the other rooms and the bulgama room was scorching hot, in the best possible way. Broken up into two different dome spaces - one hot and the other extremely hot with a fireplace- that had the cozy smell of burning wood. A fantastic sensory experience. I popped by the restaurant and the Bulgogi stew was delicious. Prices were comparable to being outside of the spa, and the quality was just as good. The food came out piping hot with a little kimchi and some potatoes and a small bowl of rice on the side. I have been to more than a handful of Korean Spas and the features that make this one stand out are: Clean smells- sounds strange to have to say this but Gangnam was clean but didn't smell like cleaning products. Each space had a unique scent based on the desired effect - cedar, burning wood, eucalyptus, etc. Comfortable uniforms - woven, soft terry cloth sets that breathed well and were easy to move in. Unique experiences in small niches- hand spa to massage your hands, foot spa with a pebble bottomed pool, plenty of lounge spaces, vibrating plates for muscle activation or relaxation, I honestly didn't have time to do it all. The staff = top notch. Friendly front desk crew gave a great first impression. The superstar was the gal who helped me decide on a tasty dish in the restaurant, providing great descriptions for all of the choices. After 4 full hours, I needed to go to my next meeting and had to leave. Nevertheless I left feeling relaxed and satisfied. Verdict: Check it out but be sure to give yourself at least 4 hours.

And this is why the rating drops to THREE STARS However, the spa's current approach to cell phone use raises serious privacy and safety concerns. Multiple guests were openly using their phones in treatment areas and even inside the locker rooms -- including taking photos and videos in spaces where individuals are undressed. Locker rooms are universally recognized as places where people have a reasonable expectation of privacy, and recording in these areas can violate that expectation, regardless of intent. Allowing phones in environments where guests are changing creates a real risk of non‑consensual photography or video, which can have legal implications and exposes patrons to harm. Businesses that operate locker rooms and similar facilities typically have a duty of care to protect guests from exactly this type of privacy intrusion. I strongly encourage the spa to implement and enforce a comprehensive no‑phone policy throughout all treatment and locker room areas. A spa should be a place where guests feel safe, respected, and able to relax without worrying about being filmed or photographed in private spaces. PLEASE KEEP this SPA classy, with privacy rules and keep the ghetto out the door!

With any booking you are granted access to the premises from 8am to 7pm. It's better to go early during the week because they say it gets busy on the weekends. I honestly went on Monday and I'm thankful that I did. Things that are complimentary are: access to lockers, showers, steam room, jacuzzi, cooling pool, and out jacuzzis. Plus there are lounging spots upstairs where the massages take place. They also give complimentary tea, coffee, fruit, cookies, and trail mix. Plus refreshing infused water. I pre booked a 50 min trellis massage. Kendal gave the best massage I ever had, I swear! Although I will say there is definitely discrepancy with time as they add in them walking you to the room, pre conversation, undressing, all of that into it. So ultimately it can vary from 35-40 mins which is a bit meh for the cost of $200 + 23% mandatory gratuity (not including tip). I most definitely would come back for another massage with Kendal. Yet if you're coming solo bring headphones because sometimes there will be couples or groups talking in the inside cooling pool area and it can sound quite loud since it's closed in.

The services themselves were excellent. Unfortunately, as we were leaving, I realized I had accidentally left my charm bracelets in the left pocket of my robe. I immediately drove back to the spa, hoping they could be recovered. I was told the laundry had already been taken to another area of the spa and that I would have to wait. Security and several staff members were made aware that my jewelry was missing. Since then, I have been the one calling every day to check for updates. No one has reached out to me proactively, and each time I'm simply told that nothing has been found. What has been most disappointing is the lack of communication, urgency, and empathy throughout this process. While I understand that forgetting my jewelry was my mistake, I expected much better customer service from a luxury spa. No one has offered any form of compensation, refund, or even a gesture of goodwill for the inconvenience and stress this situation has caused. I hope Trellis Spa takes situations like this more seriously in the future by improving communication and showing greater care for guests when issues arise. Great service isn't just about the treatments --it's also about how customers are treated when something goes wrong.

Blossom Massage has all those, and has been around for a decade-plus with a great reputation. Dunno WHAT took me so long to check them out, but I recently bought a couples massage (which included all-day pool access) as a Christmas gift for my beau. We planned on getting there an hour before our massage to enjoy the hot tub (they requested that we call ahead to let them know and get the heat going). Our massage started promptly on time, and we both opted for deep tissue. I had Deanne, who specializes in Swedish and deep tissue massage (according to her bio on the website)... and let me say she has some STRONG hands. She found all my tension and pain-points and loosened me up. I was honestly a bit sore for days, but in a good way. A great reminder I need to take care of my body post workouts and after long days at the desk... My biggest feedback for them would be to have more info on their website about the pool access and what's offered (towels, robes) and how long we have pool access (it's all day, btw). Before booking, I had to call to get that info; it's be more convenient to add all of that info to their FAQ page. They also allow you to bring snackies, so I brought a fruit, cheese, and tinned fish spread. Also, wondering if they had hot tea service. That's always a nice touch post-massage. Looking forward to booking again!

You don't need to bring your wallet with you because, again, you pay for everything using your bracelet. I booked the Scrub Plus service, and it was amazing!

I also ended up ordering tteokbokki and sikhye at the food court. The food is a little pricey, but it was delicious. Overall, I had an enjoyable birthday at Spa World.

I'm just gonna skip to the good part now.... I really wanted to be a massive fan of the mood soak...

Honestly wasn't too sure how I would feel about it, but it was the absolute most relaxing thing EVER and I am a hard person to get to relax. Julie my was beyond amazing! Very professional yet personable and you can tell she loves what she does. I will absolutely be going back for the Shirodhara treatment.

A full day or multiple services would cost over $200. They also had a full selection of skin care items, hats and jewelry.
