About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
Pearl Spa and Sauna provides a core Korean-style thermal experience with multiple sauna types and a dedicated cold plunge. The facility features one dry sauna, one steam room, a hot tub, and one cold plunge pool. Spa-goers frequently engage in contrast therapy, moving between the hot tub and the cold plunge for enhanced recovery benefits. Guests appreciate the spacious sauna areas and note the facilities are clean, often spending one to two hours enjoying the various spa and sauna pools and rooms before or after treatments. Some guests note the steam room's functionality requires staff assistance to operate correctly.
Atmosphere
The spa maintains a relaxing, tranquil environment with a no-talking and no-phones policy that guests appreciate. The ambiance is described as beautiful, though some spa-goers mention the wet room area can be affected by noise and lighting from adjacent spaces, and that the overall atmosphere is quite dark with no natural light. The venue provides tea and snacks, and guests find the space to be clean and not overly crowded.
Staff
The all-women staff is frequently described as kind, friendly, professional, and pampering. Guests highlight the skill of the practitioners during body scrubs and massages, noting they are attentive to pressure preferences. A small number of guests mention isolated interactions with staff regarding facility use that were less favorable.
Additional Amenities
The spa offers high-quality Aveda hair, face, and body products for guests to use. Treatment packages, such as the popular 'Born to Beauty' combo, include extensive services like full-body exfoliation, oil massage, scalp scrubs, and hair washes. Some guests also mention clay and Himalayan salt rooms.
