My husband and I went there this morning. It was extremely dirty and there was mildew in the shower. I almost walked out before the session even started but decided to give it a try. I found it difficult to relax because I kept worrying about the cleanliness of the water I was floating in. I ended my session 35 minutes early and by the time I got out my husband was waiting for me. We shared a similar experience. The idea is awesome but we will not be going back to Newport Float. My husband and I were actually very surprised there were any good reviews especially the one that indicated it was clean. The photos on the website show a very clean space. Once we entered the front door, the first thing I noticed was how dirty it was. There was scraps of trash on the floor at the entry and it looked like it hadn't been vacuumed in over a month. read more

Float Therapy is such a great way to regulate your mind, body, and soul. Highly recommend.

For a first time floater like me, here's how my experience went today... I was greeted by a nice gentleman at the front, instructed me where things were at and what to do. I then was showed a room where there's a shower and a tank. Everything is private. You'll be by yourself. You shower then you go in the tank naked. The tank has thousands of epson magnesium salt so you'd think you'd drown but you'll float & it's nearly impossible to drown. Then it gets dark and quiet. All I could hear was myself breathing and my heartbeat while I float. That's when I thought of the things I wanted to do and things I have to do. Epic shit starts when you lose your conscious mind. I was semi awake and I would snap in and out of it. I first started to feel like I was going in circles like a washing machine. Then as I stay still, I felt the water breathing as I breathe. Then I was like where's my hands and my legs? Then I felt an ache on my left shoulders. I was like damn my left shoulder hurts then my neck started to hurt then after a few, the pain went away and I was like okay okay this works Then I wondered how long has it been? I lost track of time but I didn't want to lose my meditation at that time so I fully let go and that's when some crazy awesome shit happened. At first I saw a purple light, then a shadow waved at me then all of a sudden, we were at what appears to be a galaxy or something. It was purple and red with stars and I dont know how to describe it but it was comforting. It was pretty and I wasn't scared at all. The shadow figure introduced himself as my little brother. My mom actually lost our little brother during her last pregnancy but he was an adult when I saw him! I was shook! I wanted to ask his name but my session ended as they started to play weird music that snaps you out. The first 30 minutes was probably the hardest as I have so much in my mind. I wished I could've stayed longer, to ask his name and ask if he's doing okay but he seems happy as he showed me around. When I got out of the tank, I asked myself was that real or was it only my thoughts and my subconscious mind? Lol! I stood in the shower for I don't know, 10, 15 minutes. It took me awhile to snap out of it but it was very relaxing now that I think about it. They actually give you time to rinse off all the salt which was nice. As I lay in my bed recollecting what just happened to me, my mind is just so relaxed right now and my neck, shoulder and back feels amazing! Must be all the epson salt I floated on earlier! Lol! I'm already thinking of going back and maybe do a longer session and see how far I can get. These meditation and traveling out of this world is so amazing! Doing nothing was actually everything! I'll definitely be back! read more

Frenchies can't float, but by the way my mom raves about this place, I sure wish I could. Any time my mom comes home from Newport Float Therapy she is happy and can't help but shower me with treats. She says the facility is top notch and the owner, Ron, is one cool, genuine dude. I think all dogrents need to do their dogs a favor...spend some time escaping the stress of life and float away at Newport Float Therapy! read more

I loved my float therapy session! I took advantage of their early bird deal and what a great way to start the day. Ron was very nice and went out of his way to help me understand how everything worked. I found the facility to be clean and accommodating. NFT provides ear plugs, shampoo, conditioner, soap, vaseline for cuts, towels, lotion, combs and a blow dryer! They go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need. Between all the supplies they provide and the fact that they keep your credit card on file, you can walk in with just keys! I love the simplicity. Thank you Ron and NFT for making my first float therapy session awesome. I will be back! read more

Absolutely choose Newport Float, here's why: -they have legitimate industrial grade isolation tank equipment, meaning safe and clean sessions EVERY time. This is because they use industrial class filters, UV disinfection, and chemical monitoring after every session to ensure cleanliness and consistency. This is not a bath at home, it is far more complicated and much larger scale. These systems need to be engineered to be suitable for public use. If you want he'll show you the utilty room filled with stainless steel, circuit breakers, and industrial controllers designed by Float Labs. As a mechanical engineer myself in water treatment, if you don't see this equipment in your float provider, don't get in it. -Ron has thought through every detail in his setup. You/Me the floater have been considered. Tons of privacy, shower locations immediately outside the tank, clean water bottles right at the tank in case you get salt somewhere, ear plugs if you need them, there was no gaps, it was so easy. the soap is awesome, I'm a "wash your head with an Ivory bar" type, but whatever the soap is really fit into the calm after getting out -the location is easy to get in and out of -High grade product for one of the best prices I've found -and lastly, customer service, deeply knowledgeable, transparent, friendly, and a genuine desire for me to have a good session from phone call to session end. I've looked into various facilities to do isolation tank (float) sessions. Most of the pictures I see online for float shops in Orange County do not have near enough equipment in them to have a sterile, clean, regulated high concentration salt bath. If you see an egg shaped pod with a few small hoses, yuck, run away. For this reason I waited quite a while before I did it. When I saw NFT pictures with engineered float systems, the initialk choice was easy. And then Ron's setup makes the decision to return even easier. read more

I hadn't been in since the new tanks were added. Beautiful new rooms and tanks. I still fill like I'm floating and in flow state today after a 90 minute float. Gonna try the Pandora star light therapy before my next float. Super clean and professional. read more

Newport Float Therapy - Me working the front desk with Danielle - Float Spa Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I am most definitely coming back and will highly recommend others to come as well. My experience was a bit scary but calming at the same time. I will have to try coming at a later time to relax more. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They show you the filtration systems and the operations, which I thought was cool. Reason I gave 4 stars because I was expecting some kind of light and music inside but you're in complete silent darkness. Something I will have to get use to. I will be back. read more

Newport Float Therapy - A time to get away from all distractions - Float Spa Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

First time here and it was awesome. Ron was friendly and knowledgeable. I was fatigued and had a headache when I arrived. After a one hour session booked thru ClassPass I'm feeling revitalized and ready for the rest of my day. They don't use those Pods either, these are the real deal tanks. Highly recommended!! read more

Newport Float Therapy - Float Spa Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

There is a reason these guys are top-rated in the area- Facility is clean, the ambiance is great and most of all the customer experience is 2nd to none. My girlfriend and I had the pleasure of meeting Edgar and he went above and beyond to make our experience spectacular. Highly recommend a nice getaway to this place. Get in touch with your inner-self and ease the everyday stresses we all face. read more

I'd been going here for a couple years now simply due to the fact that you can't replicate the experience anywhere else. It's super relaxing for the mind and the body. On top of clean facilities, the customer service is always on point. Shoutout to my guy Abdon for always making my experience beneficial at NFT! read more

So helpful in my self care / mental health / personal development efforts. It has become a MUST for me to get in here at-least monthly!

The shower needed to be cleaned. It had mildew and mold around the fixtures in the shower and on the speaker on the ceiling. The room just looked like it needed some TLC. With the lack of cleanliness, I felt uncomfortable throughout the experience and it was difficult to relax. I tried to send the owner this message, thinking that if I were the owner, I would want to know- but I didn't receive a response. I did not ask for a refund or anything in return, but it would have been nice to get a response back. I might try float therapy again, just not at this location. **I texted FLOAT to 22121 as per the instructions on the sign next to the chamber, and left a message. Thank you for your reply, Sir, but a refund is not necessary. Hopefully you can use the constructive criticism to enhance the cleanliness and overall positive feel for the establishment. read more

Ron and Admon are awesome, very professional. & such a wonderful place! One of my favorite places ever, very sanitary as well!!

I've been coming here for years and will continue to come here for many more. This is where I first learned how to meditate--I was having a hard time with it while practicing at home--and now I am able to meditate in almost any situation. My experience each time has a resounding theme of consistency. I get great service, superb amenities, perfect temps, inclusive environment, clean facilities, and satisfying results every time. I float for two reasons; Muscle therapy after a long workout. Or meditative therapy to combat life's daily negative influences on my spirit. Regardless the reason, I always feel that both, body and spirit are always benefited. There's an added perk of floating here too! The Pandora Star! I am huge on using it before a float as a primer to meditating in sensory deprivation. The light therapy helps get your senses in tune and ready for the float tank. Can't say enough about how much I love this place and the people there. read more

I visit Newport on at least a monthly basis. I can't say enough about this place and their dedication to a quality experience, before getting into details, if you have never done a float, do yourself a favor and try at least once. I come here partly to help with some chronic backpain and to medidate. When you first walk into their rooms you are presented with almost a vault type door which seals the light and sound of the tank. Each room is also appointed with a shower, towel, earplugs, body wash, shampoo and conditioner. After you shower (I take a pretty long hot one to get relaxed) you go right into the tank. Lay right down and you are floating, in complete darkness, almost silent. For some, this will be really really intense, alone with your thoughts, at time so quiet and focus you can hear bodily sounds, blood flowing, etc. At this point all gravity is off you and any joint soreness you may have, muscle fatigue, is likely drifting away. I go through a pretty quick 10 minute meditation and then just fall asleep until they tell me my time is over. Wkare up, shower off, walk out feeling amazing. read more

Really nice staff! Clean and relaxing - I fell asleep :) They provide lotion, hair dryer, towel, ear plugs, and comb in addition to shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. Thanks! Tip: I would wear flip flops and bring my own face cream and hair brush. read more

This is a very cool and interesting therapy to try. It is one of those things that you can't really describe you just have to try for yourself. The place itself is very nice and clean, and they provide you with everything once your session is done. Very nice rainfall shower and all the toiletries. More importantly, I was impressed by the ownership. I forget his name, but he was very passionate about his investment and belief in this specific therapy. He wasn't overly aggressive and too pushy trying to communicate how good his product was, but he let us as customers decide what was best for us after we tried it. His employees followed suit and were very chill and respectful as well. I have been here twice and have loved each moment, float on and let everything go, it's a great escape to quiet our minds from a fast paced society. read more

Weather you are new to floating or an experienced floater this is the place for you. I have been going to Newport Float Therapy for over a year now and not only do they always have friendly service and very clean rooms and water but one of the nicest owners I have ever met. Floating is just an amazing way to quite down the "monkey" mind and let go of your weekly stresses while at the same time energizing your body (great for muscle soreness) and softening/moisturizing your skin. I will usually do 90 Minute float once or twice a month, and it has worked so well on my muscle aches for my workouts that I have canceled my Massage Envy membership and now save myself almost $100 per month! I can't recommend a better place or a better way to relax! read more

Had a great time and loved every minute of it. Very relaxing and it truly amazes me on how the water keeps me afloat. Thank you Ron read more

This was my second float experience, and it was a great one. Ian was helpful in guiding me through the process & preparation. The tanks are huge (actually the size of a small room - you can stand all the way up inside and actually walk around - not that you'd need to), and clean. You have your own private shower room connected to the tank. I will be back! read more

I've been wanting to try float therapy for over 35 yrs. and finally experienced it myself yesterday. I really enjoyed the experience and looking forward to doing it again soon and taking my wife and son too. I really think one has to do it at least 2-3 times to experience the full benefit. The first time is such a new experience I don't think you can relax fully. NFT is very clean with nice amenities and Ron, the owner, is super nice with no high pressure sells tactics. read more

Exceeded my expectations. I went a few months back, and I am booking a 4 month membership today. I went as the first appointment on a Saturday morning so there was no noise from any persons anywhere. I would highly recommend an early or late appointment to reduce chances of noises distracting you. It takes about 5 or 6 minutes to get yourself settled and to stop all movements before you truly get that weightless feeling, but after that it is near perfect. I'm going to bring my mind-wave neuro headset (it's a wireless EEG device) to record my brainwaves next time and compare them to my recordings made while meditating. I am expecting to see much higher Alpha-Theta signals. I imagine anyone who has watched that 80's movie with William Hurt de-evolving to a primate while tripping in a floatation tank (https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=william+hurt+movie+80%27s+sensory+deprivation&&view=detail&mid=1F031414B9A7931988581F031414B9A793198858&&FORM=VRDGAR) would be a little nervous about the experience, but I can tell you, the experience is better than the movie... read more

First time floater. This experience was like nothing I've ever been a part of. The entire experience from start to finish was simple and effective. If you're like me and have no previous meditation experience, you may find it a bit difficult to get into a complete deep solace. But just count your breathing and try your best. Don't be nervous if this is your first time. Having the small orb light was helpful but after a while I turned it off as it added to the relaxation. Second complementary float is what puts the cherry on top of this place. Such an effective method for ensuring customers return. Hope to continue coming here as much as I can. read more

I have been going to NFT for over three years. They have had there issues throughout that time with consistency of staff and policies but there has definitely been a serious downturn in customer service lately. My uncle was just put in hospice and I had to cancel my float with a few hours notice. I have never cancelled a float before with less than 24 hours notice. The reason I booked the float is I was told that my float I paid for would expire after 35 days which was today. So rather than having compassion I was told by Dustin that it was store policy to charge me a $35 cancellation fee. So not only did my float expire but on top of that I was charged the fee. Wouldn't you think that being such a loyal customer, checking in, referring people, telling my resort guests about NFT should warrant some empathy for my situation to waive this fee one time for me? I was angry and tried to express this to Dustin but he hung up on me after telling me sarcastically to have a blessed day. Floating should feel like a respite from the stresses of life not add to them. This place has utterly gone to crap!!! Switching to Awaken Float Lounge in Orange, I would suggest you do the same. I will never return. read more

This was a very cool experience; the employee working there was super chill, friendly, and professional. It was a busy night and he did a great job of chatting with the customers, managing the rooms, and maintaining a clean store all at the same time.The tanks are very well maintained and water just the right temperature. This actually helped my back (I have chronic back pain and very stiff muscles) just from lying around in the water and dozing off. I will definitely come back to try the Pandora light! read more

I have floated twice and used the PandoraStar machine on two occasions. Here are my experiences with the floats: The first time was amazing, I went into a deep meditative state, had some profound visionary experiences. That was when I went in the morning. The second time was at night after yoga and a deep tissue massage and it was pretty intense. I had some strange visions and felt as though my ego was having a hard time letting go. Eventually I did and fell into this weightless, timeless space until it was time to get up. The PandoraStar was lots of fun. It's like being inside of a kaleidoscope, but better. read more

Love the service and the way that I left the space. Just got bummed because pandora box wasn't working...

The environment was perfect to relax in. The owner was very helpful. He walked us through the process and extra items to use if needed. There was shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion, combs, q-tips, towel, earplugs, and etc offered to us to utilize. It was the first time my boyfriend and I floated. We are willing to try it again. We were super peaceful during and after the float. I ended up purchasing a gift certificate for my pregnant friend's birthday coming up. Floating while pregnant is recommended. This business is a must to stop by when you are feeling a need to release some tension or wind down. read more

I've never done anything close to what float therapy is but I have heard amazing things from what my friends have told me, so I decided to book an appointment. The receptionist (Sahar) walked me through the process of what float therapy is and how it works down to the science of it. I booked a Pandora + float for next week. The service I received definitely deserved a shout out. I'll write another after my session. read more

I had a very good float experience here. I started with the light therapy session for 30 minutes followed by a 60 minute float. Both sessions were excellent and very calming. It was my first time with the light therapy and I recommend starting with this before doing your float session. It will give you a chance to relax and get into a meditative state so that when you start your float you will be in the right state of mind. The first couple minutes of the lights feel intense, but if you just go with it, very quickly it becomes calming and very pleasant. The float tank was a very high quality experience. I've tried a couple other places before which had the cheap plastic pods. This place has the best tanks that are available and the difference is huge. First of all it is extremely quiet inside which is very important if you don't want to be constantly distracted by outside noise. It is an "isolation" tank after all. Second, it was completely dark. You want all of your senses deprived for a great experience. It was also nice to see all of the high end filtration that goes into keeping things clean. Highly recommended! Don't waste money on the cheap pods at other places! read more

Amazing first experience! I will definitely be back. I suggest using the neck rest they give you makes it way more comfortable. Also would definitely use the ear plugs just helps keep a lot of water out of your ears. Next time I will get water a little warmer other than that so cool check it out! read more

The best float spa I've been to. I also recommend trying the pandora star. I live in Rancho Cucamonga so it's a drive for me but it's worth it. read more

This place is heaven sent. I can't get over the experience, the wellness & the healing this has provided. It is so odd but yet such an incredible discovery. This is such a healthy way to relax, re-zone, & reattach yourself to who you are. I got hooked and came almost every week. It has allowed me to gain higher consciousness, deeper meaning to things & allowed me to feel peace for a moment in this busy life. I recommend it, do 3 sessions for $99. By the 3rd float, you will experience something unlike any other feeling. Btw the owner is awesome, great energy & intentions from that guy. He rocks. read more

Amazing place. Very relaxing, clean, and Hunter is an amazing staff! Now, I am just filling in filler so I can post on yelp. Almost there! A couple of more words into this sentence and I should be able to post. Wow, really? Ok, we are good. read more

Ok I'm not trying to be cool by going against the grain here, cuz everyone seems to have had an amazing transcendental experience here and highly recommend it, but I honestly thought it was...just meh. Don't get me wrong, the customer service was top notch and the staff are super nice, but my actual experience was kinda underwhelming. The Pandorastar session was awesome for the first 5 minutes, seeing different colors and kaleidoscope images, but then the next 25min I started feeling like I was gonna have a seizure. I also kept getting distracted since the headphones are not noice cancelling so I could hear the staff walking around and talking. But who am I to complain, it was free. The actual float experience was actually a bit of a let down. I dig meditation and mindfulness, so had some moderately high expectations on the journey my sensory deprived mind was about to take me. But none of that happened. I tried meditating for a while, then fell asleep a little and caught myself snoring, so then I tried lucid dreaming but couldn't go back to sleep, then I started bumping into the walls of the chamber, and the air is really thick and kinda hard to breath so that was distracting. Then I got really bored so I started singing songs in my head. Then I had to keep fighting the urge to leave and go play cell phone games while I waited for my wife. What a generation we are huh? Can't even relax for 90 minutes without going back to our cell phones. Anyway, the music cue that the session was over finally came on so I hopped out and got in the shower (reminds me of a hospital shower but with nice soap and shampoo) and was waiting to hear the awesome stories of different dimensions my wife visited on her experience, but she said she actually got out of the tank halfway through cuz she couldn't breath and felt nauseous the whole time. Pro tip: don't eat before laying in a confined dark hot tub for 90min. TL,DR awesome staff, nice price, clean place without any of the usual spa frills n thrills so you get what you pay for, but don't expect too much from the experience besides laying in a dark salty warm puddle. read more

I called tonight and they were about to close. I got a call a few minutes later. The voice said "hey bro you seem like you really need a float, come in I will stay late." To my surprise customer service does still exist. I want to thank Andrew from NFT for going above and beyond. Andrew was 110% right I needed a float. Thanks Andrew the stressful day I had ended with me feeling stress free. read more

I love this place. They are super nice, helpful and understand that it's all about the experience. I've tried other float centers and they only seemed interested in getting me signed up for a monthly payment, Newport Float Therapy was really concerned about me and how my experience was. The Pandora Star is also amazing. You have to give it a try. Great Job!! read more

LOVE this place. I tried a competitor prior to this visit and what a difference between the two experiences. Newport Float is quiet, well maintained and has excellent equipment. I tried the larger tank this time and was amazed being able to sprawl out and drift in space. I didnt hear any outside noises or voices and found it easy to relax and meditate the entire time. Came out elated relaxed and uplifted. Exactly what I wanted. read more

I absolutely love this place!! I live in Long Beach and it's a bit of a drive, but totally worth it. It's very comfortable, clean, and everyone I have met that works there is very friendly, knowledgeable, understanding, and calm. I would recommend this place for all of their services and will definitely be going back soon! read more
