A group of friends and I were in town for a girls trip recently and booked a private yoga session in the salt cave as well as individual massages. The salt cave yoga was fantastic--a marvelously tranquil space with a skilled instructor leading us. Wanting to try Thai yoga/massage for the first time, I signed up for a 50 minute session on the mat followed by a 50 minute signature massage in case the Thai session was not for me. Chance was my therapist for both, and the experience was extraordinary. He walked me through what to expect and made adjustments along the way to personalize the treatments. He is also a singularly nice person, exuding a friendly and competent presence that makes it easy to relax. Overall, a terrific experience at this establishment! read more

Suzanne gave the best prenatal massage. In fact, it was the best overall massage I've ever had. Cannot recommend her enough!

I visited the Salt Spa today for the first time. A friend invited me and told me I would love it. She was right! Our appointment was at 12 PM, in the salt cave. We arrived a few minutes early to complete some paperwork. My friend paid extra so we would be the only ones in the cave since she was getting a full body massage. I put on socks provided by the spa and headed into the cave. Upon entering, I was in awe of the salt cave. I immediately felt lighter. The music and water helped set the tone for total relaxation. The spa associate told us the owner was from Poland. She purchased all the salt on the floor from the Wieliczka Salt Mine in Poland. And the salt on the walls and ceiling (mixture of salt and plaster) came from the Himalayan mountains in Pakistan. Salt has many health benefits and aids the respiratory system. She told us to take deep breaths while inside the cave. Jesse was my massage therapist and performed reflexology on my feet and hands for one hour. I could feel his work all the way up my legs and into my hips. It felt amazing. I didn't fall asleep, but I was in a deep meditative state. I highly recommend checking out the Salt Spa and you MUST go into the salt cave and experience it for yourself! read more

I got a signature massage and a signature facial last week - the massage was great, she pushed harder when I asked and pushed lighter when she could tell I was squirmy. My two issues with the place - 1. I had to pay the total amount and their included tip upfront before even entering, to hold my booking. I didn't like that I had to already tip before I had my service. 2. The signature facial was pretty bad. It was like 50 minutes of her, just rubbing her fingers along my face kind of massaging it - she maybe spent 45 seconds doing extractions once on my nose and once on my chin. And that was it - she didn't do any more than that. I told the front desk after my service this same opinion and she just looked at me and said "ok, I'll tell management" then I walked out the door. I won't be back for those kinds of services. read more

Mixed reviews for this spa. We went for my husbands birthday. I arranged for the float spa, sauna and couples hot stone massage. The float and sauna were nice. No complaints. The massages were a little weird. My husband enjoyed his and had no complaints whatsoever. My massage therapist had a very frantic energy. He was not friendly, no smiles. He must have asked me 20 times if the pressure was ok. He practically threw the hot wash cloths on me. After the massage they both stood there like they were waiting for a tip. The 20% tip is included already. We must have been the last massage of the day because they rushed out of there before we even left. It was a weird ending to a nice day. But to be honest, we probably won't return. read more

What a tranquil and relaxing experience. The Salt Cave was the perfect mother daughter time together. For 45 minutes, we laid back in the antigravity chairs and cozy blankets looking up at the beautiful lights, breathing in the salt, and listening to flowing water and peaceful music. I cannot comment one way or another about the health benefits. There is much logic to it. I do equate it to a 45 minute Savasana with extras - so all good. We started right on time and the Natalie was lovely. I look forward to returning. Since the Salt Cave can be reserved for groups up to 8, it might be a nice spot for my next get together with friends. read more

My therapist Chance was absolutely incredible... I was in there for 50 minutes and wished I had booked for longer because I didn't want it to end ! Absolutely spectacular 10/10 stars , I'm for sure making another appointment !! read more

I have to say I had the absolute worst massage in my entire life! I would like to preface this review by saying that we are used to getting monthly massages at our old massage place, which we just moved 4 hours away from and was looking for a new place as well as this location is in the heart of Downtown Saint Augustine. I was unaware of that at the time of my booking. I booked a couples massage for myself and my husband. I loved that they offered Thai massage. When I booked I asked if I could have a regular (Swedish) massage and the person incorporate the Thai method of stretching your limbs either before or after or during etc. I was assured that I would get that. The massage appointment is for 2pm, but they told me not to arrive until 2pm. This should have been more of a 2:15 massage, please arrive at 2pm would have been much clearer as I was unsure I was going to park, undress, and check in if I arrived at 2. Anyway, we had to pay to park down the road ($14.00) which was fine as we planned on going out for an early dinner once we found out it was downtown. I thought it was weird when you sign the forms they allow you a 10 minute grace period to stop the massage and get your money back (should have been a flag) I would have stopped mine had I not drove 40 minutes, already was on the table and I had high hopes that it would have gotten better! Carlton introduced himself and went into communication about breathing etc. All while my husband massage lady had already instructed my husband how to lay and left room. Finally he left and me and my husband got under the sheets. Here are some highlights : he pressed down on my forehead and held his hand there, not moving it, nothing for a minute or so, he massaged my knee cap more than my legs, he played and pulled my ears, there was not a single thing enjoyable that this man did. At one point I told him "this is not enjoyable, can I please have a regular massage" when he shoved his hands down my back all the way to my butt. I have had people do that to mid back but all the way down !! He asked me "What is a regular massage?" Then he proceeded to tell me that I was tense and not breathing thats why I was not enjoying it, he told me "Sometimes massages brings out emotions in us, its OK to cry" like what WHAT!!! then he asked me if I felt "Safe"-- DUDE all I want to feel is relaxed and you are failing miserably I never in my life was so happy to only have a 50 minute massage. It was 50 minutes too long. read more

Wife and I booked an 80 minute massage for our anniversary. The massages were not quality, and seemed like both service providers ignored our requests for areas of focus, and also went very slow. We both felt as if we did not receive proper service or treatment. After massage, both service professionals disappeared, and never came back to provide us a cup of water or ensure the service was correct. Upon getting back home after trip, I exchanged several emails with management who did not care to help make the situation correct or offer any viable feedback. We have been to this place several times before, and I did not know if management/ownership has changed, but we definitely will not return, and suggest you all save your money and book elsewhere. read more

When we visit FL we always have a girls day and visit Salt Spa for messages. The staff is very welcoming and the space is very relaxing. The nice thing is that the tip is included in the price, which makes it even more enjoyable. You can repaid and not worry about anything the whole you are there. The only thing to note is that it is called Salt Spa but isn't a spa you a stay at and walk around in a robe. It is more like you get your message and leave.i know they have the salt room but I haven't been. read more

I came the first time in February with my sister. . My 81 year old sister lives out of town, needed the chair lift and they were very accommodating to her needs. My massage was incredible. I was using a cane at the time, trying to decide on getting a knee replacement. I returned every week except when I'm out of town. Swavek recommended some leg exercises but to check with my doctor first. After a few weeks of exercises and continued massage, I walk without a cane and I am avoiding knee replacement! I've had three back surgeries and I pulled my back out after a long driving trip. A quick trip to massage and I'm good as new! The staff are courtesy and kind to any limitations. If you're recovering from an injury, I highly recommend going. If you want to relax too. read more

I met some college girlfriends in Amelia Island for a weekend in September and we boogied down to Saint Augustine for a salt spa experience. I've been to several but it was the first time for my friends. It was easy to find and we happened upon a parking space out front when we arrived though if you can't get one of those few, I don't know where you would park. The staff was very welcoming and we only had a few minutes to wait before our time slot in the salt cave. It was very cozy and pretty. We scooted our chairs into a semi-circle around one of the wall drip features. We chatted quietly for a few minutes before drifting off into a "meditative nap phase". The blankets and anti-gravity chairs do the trick for sure! We left feeling relaxed and fresh. My friend's sinus issue from her plane travels to us even cleared up for the rest of our trip. I did notice they had spa services and a float tank - had we more time I would have planned half a day here! I'll visit again next time I'm down this way. read more

Had an amazing time with hubby for a romantic get away! It helped ease my muscle I would definitely come back.

Came in yesterday 5/1. I was so grateful to have the opportunity to come in especially since I called at 12pm noon time and was booked same day at 3pm. I booked a Salt Spa Signature that included both Swedish and deep tissue, I also had the add-ons of CBD oil, and hot stones with a combo of detox essential oils. The place almost looks like an apartment complex from outside, yet when you walk in it's complete zen. So relaxing! I was greeted by Maria at the front desk complete sweetheart! So friendly. I filled out a form, and was almost immediately taken upstairs for my massage. Once up stairs in the room my massage therapists asked if I would like the bed heated; I replied, yes please! Then she stated she would step out so I could get comfy and get onto the bed. The massage began and it was amazing so greatly needed! It had been over a year since my last massage; and with moving across state in under a month I was definitely in need of some extra TLC. After I was done I was provided some ice cold water & downstairs I went. I enjoyed my experience so much I booked another for end of this month ! Kudos to all staff! From Maria, to my massage therapist, to the other sweet lady that checked me out. Total price was $138 $98 for the 50min Salt Spa Signature Massage $20 CBD Oil add on $20 Hot Stone Thank you Salt Spa..... there is also an infrared sauna available. read more

I give them a 4 because no staff wears a mask and there is no warning on the door as such. The staff is very pleasant and the infrared sauna was amazing. Loved that they have Chrometherapy as well with their sauna. read more

My husband and I enjoyed the most amazing couples massage with Dee and Angie. I formerly worked in the spa industry and have experienced a variety of massage therapists over the years--Dee is one of the BEST. When I booked I told the receptionist that I was having some issues with a pinched nerve and radiating pain. The receptionist said she would partner me with a therapist who had worked within the chiropractic industry. This was immediately apparent with the skillful way Dee understood physiology and was able to use touch to apply pressure to alleviate pain. I wish I lived closer so I could book her regularly! My husband also remarked that his massage was the best that he'd ever had. Kudos to Dee and Angie for making our couples massage a highlight on our vacation. Thank you both! read more

Booked this a month out as we had been in one in NC and wanted to try one close to home. My daughter and I arrived the Saturday before Moms day, May 12. We were booked for a one hour relaxation in The Salt spa. Arrived at our time at noon and the parking lot was full, nowhere to park. Drove 3 blocks away to a lot and paid $10. When we walked in the door, there was a lady arguing over a refund loudly. The other man was with another customer. We waited 15 minutes. I told the manager there was no parking asked for reimbursement for parking. She said they would not. She said they offer free passes for parking and I stated it was not on her website to come in and ask for a pass. So out $10 for a service at their establishment. We paid for a one hour slot. Led into the salt spa with socks provided. No earplugs given. After sitting in the salt cave for 15 minutes listening to the man next to us snore loudly, I got up went to the desk and asked for earplugs and also said is there any music, oh the lady said we forgot to turn it on. Went back, music was on, earplugs in BUT man snored the remaining time. His wife's phone went off. NO PHONES should be allowed In the salt cave. Then the lights went on after 45 minutes. Did not get our full HOUR. Told the manager when we left my complaints and she said Thanks for the suggestions. Also get a soundproof door, you can hear all the lobby and reception talking clear as day with earplugs in. A refund of $68.00 would be appreciated plus my $10 for parking. This was suppose to be my Moms Day gift from my daughter. Peg Meola Jacksonville, Fl. read more

Worst massage I have ever had, basically had lotion applied for 80 minutes with no actual massage despite asking for deep tissue and asking the therapist to adjust pressure. Bad customer service- his wife is the owner and insisted he's the best therapist there. Would not recommend read more

The worst massage I have ever had and I have had a LOT of massages. I left more stressed than I arrived after having lotion aggressively rubbed all over my body. No actual massaging was done at all. I asked the gentleman to slow down hoping it would help improve the experience- it did not. I should have known it was going to be a less than desirable experience when the first thing we were told was that if we didn't stop the therapist in the first ten minutes of starting that we would still be required to pay in full. read more

We recently visited St Augustine and booked treatments at Salt Spa. I am giving 3 stars based on the professional and courteous customer service that we received and for the experience of the salt room which was a bonus but would honestly give a 1-2 stars on the level of the massage treatments and the "spa" aesthetics. The pictures on the website did not properly depict the interior of the spa which I was disappointed in as it was a surprise gift to my spouse. We both love going to local spas when we travel and have never had this type of experience especially after spending over $600. The "sweet treat package" was a bottle of Korbel sparkling wine which flutes that still had stickers on them, we had to pour ourselves when we were seated in a "lounge" room that had uncomfortable mis-matched furniture. No robes or slippers were provided as you are given in most spas and we were not informed that we should bring our own. While I agree with other reviewers that the staff is very nice, I will say that I don't believe that the experience warrants the expensive service prices. read more

We were on vacation and wanted to try something new. I booked the salt cave (a 45 min service) for 2 people a month in advance. We got there on time and was told there was a slight delay with our appointment as a bridal party was running over and they were glad they were able to shift things so it didn't cut into my service time, um what? Why would someone else's appointment cut into my time? If they were late for their appointment, their time should be cut. If someone along the way was late pushing all other clients back and maybe you have to stay late, you deal with it. We were promotly taken upstairs and offered water or tea. We waited 40 (!) mins before we were taken back downstairs for the 'salt cave story.' So, being that our service was 45 mins and we waited 40 mins, either those people came in 5 mins before our appointment, upgraded their service and wasn't told an appointment was coming in, etc. When we were checking out, it was again said that they were glad they were able to shift things around to fit everyone rather than "cutting an appointment." If you would have cut our appt the day of, that is not good customer service. It would be nice if you'd let a customer know that you are running THAT far behind. Your business needs to do better. read more

Went to the Salt Spa today to celebrate my one year anniversary. I had never done a couples massage before as they usually charge a premium on top of the cost per person, but I am happy to report that it doesn't look like these guys do that. Just a simple price per person, times two! It was my gf's first massage and she reported back two thumbs up on both the relaxing experience and the pain relief that came from it. Most places I've been to say the amount of minutes youre paying for then sneakily cut that time by asking if you need to use the restroom or giving you too long to get undressed and onto the table. Happy to report once more than Salt Spa did NOT do this and gave us the full 80 minutes that we paid for. Staff hospitality was a 10/10, and the experience was stress free. Parking is a bit limited but we lucked out, given their efforts to have patrons leave after their experience. Thanks, Salt Spa! Will be back soon read more

An amazing and unique experience with the sauna and salt room. Can't wait to do again!

My first time in Saint Augustine, my first time at a Salt spa but not my first time receiving massages and facials. I've had hundreds but from the moment I walked into this "Salt Gem" I knew I had found an amazing place. First off the staff was very professional and warm. They were thorough in explaining the services and payment procedure. I indulged in the salt float and then came back to experience the Ultimate facial, massage and the Salt cave. The owner was the cherry on top! Beata is her name and she greeted me with such genuine kindness I felt like I had known her for many years and we were the bestest of friends. I stayed in the old city for a week and without a doubt experiencing the Salt Spa was the highlight of my vacation and would come back again just to have the services and more! read more

We happened upon the Salt Spa just off the St. George St. promenade. My boyfriend tried floating for the first time and I did the infrared sauna. He was so amazed by the experience we came back the next day! I was nervous to float in the sensory deprivation chamber but he had a great experience so I was motivated to try. We floated and then relaxed in the salt room. It was wonderful. The owners are welcoming, take their time giving you a tour and explain the process/ health benefits. The other patrons we met shared with us how they come again and again - and tell all their friends. Not only did we feel a difference but our skin looked great as well! It is a calm beautiful space with state of the art amenities you need to let go and recharge. read more

THE SALT SPA IS A DISGRACE in many ways the treatment rooms are not soundproof can hear other people conversations. The staff knew i was recovering from an auto accident and was staying at the bed and breakfast next door.i booked treatments at the spa everyday for over a week, Little did i know how bad it would get,on my 3RD day at the salt spa after a treatment i was walking slowly into reception area because of my back injuryalso i am 80 years old, i hear behind me one of the salt spa massage therapists yell at me MOVE,MOVE i turn around at this ARROGANT , RUDE EMPLOYEE and say "what did you say to me" this creep named EDWARDO SAID WITH HIS HANDS IN MY FACE ,SAID AGAIN MOVE , GO , GO. i have going to spas for over 40 years i have never been treated like this, it gets worse i go to the front desk and tell the staff what this employee said to me I WAS IN SHOCK THEY DEFENDED HIM BY SAYING HE IS FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY AND HE DID NOT MEAN ANYTHING BY IT THEN THESE INCOMPETENTGIRLS AT THE FRONT DESK TELL ME THIS IS THE OWNERS FAVORITE EMPLOEE IF I WAS AN ENPLOYEE AT THE SALT SPA I WOULD QUIT ASAP i asked to speak to the manger they said there is no manager the owner took ff for a week vacation THIS IS THE WORST SPA EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE I STOPPED ALL TREATMENTS AND THE SPA LOST ALOT OF MONEY BECAUSE I LEFT THE OWNER ONLY CARES ABOUT MONEY read more

I was in town for an anniversary celebration. I booked Salt Spa because of the reviews. I booked a couples deep tissue massage. We were both very disappointed. We both felt like it was a Swedish massage. Don't get me wrong, it was relaxing and definitely not a deep tissue. I kept thinking she would eventually apply more pressure and never did. I asked for certain areas to be massaged and focused. That didn't happen. Never been more dissatisfied. read more

If I could give this establishment zero stars I would. We are very much in heightened COVID, RSV and Flu season. Out of caution we tested for Covid the morning of our appointment and tested positive. We called at 8 am, 9am 10:00 and 10:30 and also sent several emails. We were told we could come to the appointment despite being positive (we were not going to do that out of respect for CDC guidelines) or we would be charged. We asked to speak with the owner after calling several more times to explain the situation. The owner behaved in such an unprofessional manner. She was combative and rude and encouraged us to leave a bad review because policy is policy. Her demeanor was aggressive and as a business owner that is not how you treat customers. I understand that you have to stick to a cancellation policy but we are very much still in a global pandemic. If you are Covid conscious please avoid this place. They are more concerned about profit over health and safety. Update: We were questioned about our Covid case after she claimed we were driving in a car and must be feeling better. As a high risk immunocompromised person this is offensive. I am ok paying the cancellation fee as I avoided having to interact with such careless staff. read more

My mom and I came for the Body Renewal Cycle. It was such a relaxing time. We did the float tank which was a unique experience. The Epsom salt made my skin so smooth and obviously make it very easy to float. It was 60 minutes, but I think next time I would like to do it for only 45 minutes. I got a little antsy the last 15 minutes. The infrared sauna was next. My mom had a hard time staying in it for the allotted 30 minutes. She got a tad overheated after about 20 minutes. She got out and was able to cool down in the shower while I finished the time in the sauna. The owner then gave us a run down about the salt cave, explaining the history, how it works, and the importance of salt. Then we had our 45 minute session in the salt cave. It was great because it was just me and my mom. We were able to talk and relax in the chairs. We thought is especially cool that the entire cave including the ground was salt. It is cooler in there so they offer a blanket, but after the hot sauna the temperature felt great! The staff was extremely friendly and very on top of the transitioning from room to room. If time allowed we were given some extra time in the rooms. The only thing I would do next time is add a massage after the sauna. Your body is so relaxed that a massage would have felt great!! read more

Very clean. The salt cave is the best in the area, no other compares. They also offer facials with gluten free products that left my skin glowing!!! The ultimate spa day. Book in this order: sauna(I showered after), was warmed up for my massage, then finished with facial! You won't be disappointed. I left feeling amazing. If you have all day, do all the services. The float and salt cave are pretty cool for first timers! read more
