The Spa at Balboa Bay Resort is the perfect wellness escape, featuring a menu of traditional and signature massage services, skin treatments, body therapies, and more. We chatted with Spa Director Linnea Robertson, who gives the inside scoop on which treatments to try, special bonuses, what guests love most, and more:

Why You’ll Love It: Our staff. They are amazing at providing personalized service and guests compliment the team all day long.

Key Features: Guests of The Spa at Balboa Bay Resort can enjoy our whirlpools, steam rooms, and saunas, in addition to our complete menu of traditional and signature massage services, skin treatments, and body therapies.

Insider’s Tip: Bring a book, or just relax in our co-ed quiet lounge after your treatment before heading back into the locker room area. That extra time after your treatment is priceless.

Bonus: If guests are celebrating a special occasion, be sure to let the team know when booking or checking in. We like to offer something special, from a glass of bubbly to product samples.

Guests of the Spa also have access to the whirlpool.

Snacks Served: Guests can enjoy a relaxing tea blend, coffee, and cucumber water for hydration. We also have a variety of snacks, from fresh cut oranges and grapefruit to mixed nuts and pretzels.

Unique Treatment: Our most unique treatment is our new CBD Remedy Massage. CBD oil has many benefits, including anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiety properties, as well as overall stress reduction, which leave guests feeling relaxed and refreshed. The Spa is exclusively using all natural and vegan products from the Southern California, female-founded brand WINK. Guests also love that we’re selling the products used in the massage.

Splurge Treatment: I would recommend that guests splurge on our newest treatment, The Diamond White Facial. This facial is an ultra-luxurious treatment that fades uneven pigmentation and leaves the skin with a radiant glow. Our estheticians use an innovative three-step exfoliation, and blend of AHA’s + carboxitherapy to exfoliate and oxygenate the skin. The treatment ends with a cooling, firming and anti-inflammatory mask, leaving guests with glowing and luminous skin.

Insider’s Favorite: Our Diamond White Facial. It’s great for brightening and hydrating the skin. The results are truly amazing!
