My Christmas gift from my husband was a complete disaster at the Sea Spa. The Manager was the most confrontational person I have ever encountered. Bad breath to boot!!!! After the mediocre treatments, I was treated to the (you will give me the proper tip) portion of the program. I loved it when she not only told me that my husband had received a ...

Mediocre, at best
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/10/06
The facility was lovely and the receptionist was pleasant. The massage therapist, on the other hand, was downright irritating. I received a one-hour massage and facial as a gift. The therapist kept reminding me that an hour is insufficient for doing any "detail work." She also commented on her star clientele and how she is responsible for ...

Very Santa Barbara
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/07/05
I had a wonderful experience at Sea Spa! The phone was answered quickly and the receptionist was warm and friendly. I received a gift certificate for the "Ultimate Spa" which is 1.5 hours massage/facial. I was assured everything was taken care of including gratuity. The Sea Spa is by appointment only in order to schedule clients in a ...

Worst Spa Experience Ever!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/17/05
In reading the positive reviews, I question whether or not they were written by the owner or staff because I can't see how anyone would give this spa a high rating. I also had an "Ultimate Massage" which was supposed to include a facial and reflexology at a "special discounted rate" of $120. What a rip off! It was a ...
They sold us on 'The ultimate spa experience' and what we got was a bed with cheap towels, not even sheets, and very mediocre swedish massage with way too much oil. After it was over they said that this 1 hr massage was usually $210/person but they were only going to charge us $120/piece. The mgr then reminded us that gratuity was not included. This is possibly the worst spa experiece we ever had.

Try Another Spa!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/20/05
Can never get a "live" person on the phone to make a reservation. Looks nice, Very expensive for the area. Try Avia or the Biltmore!

Exclusivity is a plus
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/05/05
The most extensive treatments and skilled staff. I agree with the exclusive aspect; I like feeling like I'm the only person there and they're catering just to me. The best.

Actually, the best
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/28/05
Amazing how a spa can make it feel like you're the only customer. Thorough perfection on every level. Being in the film industry and relying on privacy (and the best treatments), I can't recommend Sea Spa high enough. (If LA Magazine names them as one of the 5 best in SoCal, how can you go wrong?)

Dreadful!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/12/05
Terrible attitude; save your time and money and choose one of the other great surrounding spas that are more professionally run.
