If you are looking for a beautiful, relaxing, and all around renewing experience, the Spa at Atlantis Casino is the place to go. Atlantis Casino Spa and Resort located in Reno, Nevada has one of the most glorious facilities on the west coast. Located right off the freeway, makes it easy to get to regardless of where you are coming from. With it being placed on the third floor, you can easily forget that you are in a smoke filled casino. Immediate tranquility can be felt when you step off the elevator into the world of rejuvenation. Atlantis Casino built their spa in 2003 and then remodeled it in 2009 creating even more space for every guest. There are multiple lounges to spend the day in, in and out all day access, and dining available to you from the pool deck. I have been coming to this spa frequently since 2014, and love it more and more each time. My first treatment was a simple massage, but my experience was so delightful I had to keep coming back. I now have received multiple massages, facials, body scrubs, body wraps, and other treatments. Each of the treatments I have had I would absolutely recommend anyone to try. From start to finish the experience is one for the books.
Before I even got to the spa I had to call to book an appointment, being one of the best spas in Nevada they book up fairly quickly. The girl on the phone was so nice and patient as she went over multiple different treatments with me and how each of them would benefit my body. Having a copious amount of treatment options can be beneficial because no one person is looking for exactly the same thing. Having the different options appeals to everyone instead of a small subset of people. I love that I could recommend the spa to anyone and there would be something for them to enjoy on the treatment menu.
Upon walking into the reception area on the day of my treatment each staff member had a smile on their face and are on their feet to greet you. The professionalism that they have cannot be compared to any other spa I have been to. Checking in was a quick and easy process and the perfect way to start my day of relaxation. After being set up with a robe, a pair of spa slippers, and a locker I could officially lounge around. The locker room attendant was incredibly helpful and hard at work but constantly wore a smile. I was sipping warm tea in the tea lounge when my provider came to get me for my treatment. She was so warm and gentle whispering my name as to not disturb the other guests. It was the best massage I have ever received and the therapist made sure I was comfortable the whole time.
The environment of the spa was so calm and peaceful. Every guest gets informed upon check in that all areas past reception are quiet areas meaning no loud talking and no cell phones or other technology. It was so nice to sit in a quiet room with no distractions. Having a no technology rule not only made it so other people weren't bothering me on their phones but also so that I was forced to stay off of my phone and jump into a full state of harmony.
At Spa Atlantis there were multiple areas of relaxation to enjoy before and after a treatment. Inside the locker area is the tea lounge, sauna, and steam room. The tea lounge was a wonderful place to wind down before your treatment with healthy snacks and beverages. Outside of the locker room are three separate co-ed lounges; the laconium lounge, aqua lounge, and brine inhalation therapy room. The laconium lounge, similar to a dry sauna, gets heated to 108 degrees and has benches that are constructed to help relax the spine.
Down the hall the aqua lounge can be found with two hot jacuzzi pools and cold plunge pool, meant to help with circulation and joint or muscle soreness. In the brine inhalation therapy room rests a brine sea salt waterfall. This particular room helps improve breathing and lung function. The lights are also dimmed creating a wonderful place to drift off. Most other spas do not have co-ed areas, or only have one room. This unfortunately means that if you come with a significant other you don't get to spend time with them. The Atlantis Spa having not just one, but three lounges that are co-ed makes it so guests can enjoy their time together.
Each lounge was very clean seeing as the attendants were often picking up after guests. There were never cups left out, towels left unattended, or stray spa slippers. Because the area was always clean it helped me to stay in my deep state of bliss. This truly made it feel like it was a get away from the real world where I had nothing to worry about and nothing to do.
With there being multiple places to lounge around there was always something to do. It never felt overcrowded or got too rambunctious. Especially in the locker room. When the receptionists bring guests back they place them a few lockers apart so that they were not super close to each other when changing into their bathing suits or throwing on their spa robes. There was always a seat read more
