Great place, great value and very good service. Would be a plus if there was an hairdryer.
Susie on the main reception desk was so lovely !! With it being my first time, she carefully took the time to explain the recommended process for the hot plunge and made me feel very welcome💓 I will be coming again ☺️
I recently visited The Retreat and was seriously impressed. The building is brand new and beautifully designed, which immediately gives it a fresh, high-end feel. The massages were absolutely amazing — easily one of the best I’ve had. The therapists really know what they’re doing and make you feel completely at ease. I also loved the hot and cold plunge experience, which added a great wellness touch and left me feeling refreshed and recharged. Having individual rooms made the whole experience feel private and personal, which I really appreciated. Overall, it’s an incredibly relaxing place and perfect if you’re looking to switch off and unwind. I’ll definitely be coming back.
Staff are really friendly here! I’ve tried a few of the sauna / ice bath places now and this is by far one of the best. I went for the recovery room hot plunge and it was really relaxing. Definitely coming back to try the cold plunge next!
Literally the best massage I have EVER had in my life. By saff!! All the staff were so lovely and welcoming and made me feel so comfortable and at ease. Everything was super straight forward. This is so handy having this in town! I love how private everything is also. I will be returning!!
Excellent! What an amazing experience. Full body deep tissue massage, sauna and hot plunge pool. Highly recommend
Staff were friendly and helpful. Had a really good time unwinding. Definitely would come again
What a place! Fantastic facilities, private rooms with saunas and the choice of an ice bath / hot bath. Great staff as well!
I was here with my partner and we had an amazing time. I enjoyed the sauna and especially the cold bath was great! Kept dipping into it !
I recently visited the retreat massage & Spa and the experience left a strong impression from start to finish. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt calm and thoughtfully designed. A quiet, welcoming ambiance that immediately helped me unwind. The staff were so lovely, friendly and professional, taking the time to understand my preferences and any areas of tension before beginning the massage. The massage itself was excellent. The therapist struck a great balance between relaxation and effective pressure, working through tight areas without it ever feeling uncomfortable. I especially appreciated how attentive they were throughout, adjusting techniques based on how my body responded. Cleanliness and hygiene were clearly a priority, which added to the overall sense of comfort and trust. The facilities were private suites which made it even more peaceful and enjoyable as it showed they put the customers comfort first. Overall, it was a genuinely relaxing and rejuvenating experience. I left feeling refreshed, both physically and mentally. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a massage, cold or hot plunge and they’re adding more services. I’m already planning my next visit.
