I've never understood why New England doesn't have more of a spa culture, so I'm genuinely glad…read morethis place exists - and overall, it's quite good! If I weren't a bit biased from being spoiled by Canadian and West Coast Korean spas, I'd probably give it 5+ stars. I love that there's a cold plunge, plenty of relaxation rooms, an unlimited stay, and massage chairs. The atmosphere is pleasant, and the facilities feel clean and well maintained. A few minor improvements would really take this place to the next level: - The steam rooms and hot saunas could be hotter. - The cost is steep. I fully understand that my expectations are colored by $30 West Coast spas, but a slightly lower price point would make frequent visits easier to justify. - The locker room/wet area was very loud. I appreciate that conversation is allowed, but the volume made it hard to fully relax. I'm not sure there's an easy fix without acoustic upgrades. - The Korean food was disappointing, especially for the price. - This is very personal preference, but I do enjoy the traditional no-bathing-suits culture. Most women were wearing bathing suits, which made me feel a bit self-conscious being the only one without. Totally on me, but worth mentioning if you're expecting a more traditional spa experience. Overall, I'm happy to have a spa like this in the area and hope it continues to improve. If you've never tried a spa like this before, I highly encourage giving it a shot!!

I like how spacious the spot is and that there are different kinds of experiences to enjoy. The…read morebaths seemed to clean, which I greatly appreciated. I'm going to have to agree with some of the other reviewers that people were in the spa spaces with phones, and there was a lot of talking, which did make it hard to relax. When I was checking out, the young man at the counter, said some very weird things to me, which showed a lack of hospitality training. Someone else mentioned that when they checked in, they were given no orientation to the space and I had the same experience. It was put your shoes in a bag and here's where the locker room is. It's OK, I figured it out pretty quickly, but it might've been nice considering they were not busy at the front desk. I lived in Korea and have experienced authentic Korean bathhouses. This is not it, but I appreciate that the space exists and all different kinds of people were utilizing it.

I booked the night before, and there was ample appointments, which I loved! Ally was great. She worked all these knots out, let me tell you! Also, table is sturdy (size friendly) I will be going back to her! They also have couples massages, a wide variety of other types of massages. VERY reasonably priced. And currently have a cash deal where you can get a 60 minute massage for $90. I would absolutely advise tipping though.

It was a tad cold during our treatments - but it was a super hot day! So it's always tricky keeping a space cool which making sure the treatment is warm enough!

I am used to enjoying Thai massages--here in the US and in Thailand. When I lived in Los Angeles, I…read morewould typically treat myself to one at least once a month. You can imagine how over the moon I was to find this place in lil' Rhody. Thai massages are dry massages and involve a lot of gentle stretching and some acupressure. I typically leave energized and not sleepy. The massage quality is at par with what one would expect for this modality. I have no complaints here. The only setback is the service rate. This place, perhaps due to lack of competition, is pricey. This has prevented me from coming regularly. That said, if you've never had a Thai massage before and are curious about what makes it different--while not planning to visit Thailand soon, or any other state where there are more spas offering this service--then do visit Thai Tranquility Bodywork. It's worth being familiar with Thai massage, and this place does a good job.

I realized my mother in law (Cindy), already reviewed Spa Shanti... but hey, I thought I was going…read moreback again today & decided to make sure that I reiterated all of the great things about this place. Everyone was fantastic. I went with a wedding group, because we had a tiny, TINY, wedding... and everyone was just more than accommodating. I was gonna get a manicure/pedicure, because getting your hand and feet all scrubbed up & shaped sounded pretty good. And then everyone was like "my massage was great", so then I was like, well, I don't wanna feel left out, and got one. And then "my facial was great", and I got that too. Basically I went in thinking I was gonna get my hands and feet done, and ended up saying: well, lets just go with the whole shabang. I don't do this every week... or month... or year... or ever. So, when in... Johnston, do what you gotta do. It was worth every penny... not like the wedding was super stressful or anything, but it made me feel perfectly baseline for the next day. Everyone was fantastic, wonderful to be around, created an atmosphere that wasn't quite 'tranquility', but... comfort. It reminded me a lot of the kind of "nice feeling" I get when I go to my excellent barber. Just right. Spend money here, they do good work, they do it right. Dudes, you probably didn't know you needed this, so bring your s/o, and do it up.

I made an appointment for my husband for his birthday to get a massage. I called and made the…read moreappointment and gave my credit card to reserve the appointment and told her to use that credit card the day off. I called to confirm the day prior and I actually remember that I had a gift card so I gave her the gift card number and I confirmed with the woman that answered the phone and said after the gift card applies please use the card on file. I don't want my husband to pay for the massage as it's his birthday. He will tip in cash. The woman confirmed and she's said absolutely no problem. She was very nice. My husband went and got the massage. The cost of a massage was $160. He said the spa itself was nice. The massage was mediocre, nothing to really like rave home about. He was looking forward to this massage and to be relaxed and wasn't really dissatisfied, but wasn't satisfied. Then he goes to check out and the woman tells him it's $60 when I specifically told them to use the card on file. So my husband is not a confrontational person so of course he paid it and then paid the tip and then of course my husband gets home and won't take money from me so he literally paid for his own massage for his birthday. Just simple directions they could've followed personally I won't rebook.
