Chris coordinated all of my reservations and handled every detail seamlessly. They truly did not miss a beat. From the beautifully curated setup to the thoughtful touches--balloons, champagne, mimosas, strawberry lemonade, sparkling water, tea, and an incredible spread of light bites (charcuterie, vegetables, fruit, nuts, and strawberry shortcake)--everything was executed flawlessly. The experience felt incredibly exclusive, almost like I had the entire spa to myself and my guests. Antonio, the owner, greeted us personally and ensured we received white glove treatment from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. I genuinely felt like a queen celebrating such a special milestone. When I walked into the lounge and saw the setup, I was overwhelmed--in the best way. I actually cried. The robes, slippers, added seating, and overall décor were stunning. Every detail felt intentional and elevated. My massage with Brenda was phenomenal. She worked out tension I didn't even realize I was carrying, and her nurturing, calming energy made the experience even more special. I left feeling relaxed, cared for, and completely restored. I'll absolutely be booking with her again--and I'm already planning to return for a facial with Ruby. If you've ever considered celebrating your birthday--or any special occasion--this way, run, don't walk to Unwind Wellness. I would rate this experience a 1000 out of 10. You will be cared for, celebrated, and treated exceptionally well.

This place smells good from the outside before you even walk in. I felt relaxed the moment I walked in! We were greeted with a beautifully decorated sitting room overflowing with a delectable spread of a fruit and treats. My 60-minute massage was divine! I had Otelia and she has healing hands! I fell asleep at twice and didn't want to get up when it was over. The room was peaceful and serene, and the music was the perfect level. I highly recommend this place for all things!!

Aura Spa is a quality spa inside the Vida Fitness in Navy Yard without breaking the bank. Here's…read morewhy I enjoyed it: 1) Location: It's inside the Vida Fitness in Navy Yard. Check in at the gym front desk and head straight back through the door that says "Aura Spa." There's street and garage parking nearby and a metro only blocks away. 2) Price: For a 60-minute quality massage in a nice environment, it only cost $115 not including tip. For this area, that's not bad. 3) Experience: It was a great experience. They made sure you stay hydrated, don't make you wait, and don't talk to you during the massage so you can relax.

I wish I had stayed home…read more I visited on a Saturday with two people. We booked ahead on the website -- $72 for 45 minute deep tissue massage, per person. We were running about 10 minutes late, but we called them and let them know. When we arrived, the front desk staff barely said anything to us and just whisked us back into the massage room. They barely welcomed us, they didn't ask about any focus areas or preferences, and it seems like they were not the strongest communicators. We got a very basic massage with a mix of back, legs, and arms. It was not at all a deep tissue massage. It was not relaxing. It was not worth it. I didn't feel anything at the end; like, I might as well not have gotten a massage at all. When we were done, they whisked us to the counter to pay. Again, not very friendly or communicative. There is a sign on the counter that says there is a $5 charge for paying with credit card, but thankfully they did not charge us that. The place is very barebones, like the service. They have about 6 massage rooms. We were the only ones there, and I got the impression there was only more than one staff person there because we booked in advance. FYI They have some coupons on Groupon.

I see her for foot reflexology and personalized deep tissue massages (always 90 minutes, because 60 isn't enough time). She is incredibly talented and very sweet! I've also been to Glenda a few times and she is great. Definitely check out Etalon Day Spa -- 5 stars!

Not going to lie, the outside is a bit weird as you have to ring a doorbell and then walk up some steps. BUT...once inside, it is a little heavily oasis full of all the aromas and vibes of a calm-me-down. My massage therapist brought me back and I told him why I was there and that I hadn't had a massage before. I also disclosed I really don't like being touched and am nervous about this. He was respectful and kind and honored my privacy as I got ready. Then he applied the perfect amount of pressure to exactly the right places to ease my back tension, asking throughout if it was okay and not too painful. Overall, this might have been my first, but it def won't be my last massage! Highly recommend this place!

From the moment she greeted me in the reception area, I knew I was in for a wonderful experience. Alexis gave me the choice of whether I wanted her to educate me throughout the facial or share everything at the end, which I truly appreciated. Not only was the facial itself divine, but it also came with a starter kit, empowering me to continue the regimen at home. Alexis is kind, warm, and incredibly welcoming--exactly what you hope for in a self-care experience. I left feeling refreshed, informed, and cared for. She's everything you'd want in an esthetician and more!
