I was planning to just get a wash and style before my flight home and stopped in Glow Spa. They didn't have a basic wash so I took one of the hair spa services. I have never experienced hair spa before so it I didn't know what to expect. But wow - in addition to shampoo, conditioning, and treatment (for... More

I was taken here by my friend who told me it was 'the best value spa in the city'. I don't know about that, but it was the best spa I've ever been in. I went for a foot massage and ended up having a complete makeover - hair, nails, pedi and a massage at about one quarter of the... More

We purchased a 3 hour couples package, which included a massage (you can choose from two types), a facial and foot massage. We upgraded to the collagen facial and paid the difference. My wife loved every part of it. Me… not so much. We seemed to have very different experiences, with my massage and facial being quite painful, despite giving... More

Thank you for your fair and honest comments about your recent visit. I was very distressed to read about your less than satisfactory experience. I deeply apologize for any unpleasantness caused. A facial treatment should not be like anything you've described. Our therapists are trained to be responsive to client's needs which clearly didn't happen this time. We take our... More

Enjoyed back-to-back massages: 90 minute body, 60 minute foot/leg. Good technique with accupressure and rolling/Swedish mix. Most lasting impression was of how the massage therapist was very deliberate and slow in applying appropriate technique. The therapist was not hurried or trying to rush through the massage, like at some other places in HCMC. Took her time and did a great... More

A very relaxing environment away from the busy streets. It's a small cozy place which I don't mind - it's better than feeling like you're in a massage factory like some other places I've visited. The staff are very professional and there were no hassles with my service. The massage was excellent - just what I needed - after a... More

My husband and I both got massages. We did not explore the property, though it looked very lush and beautiful. Environment inside the spa itself was quiet, they served us hot tea as we waited. We both had wonderful massages. Very inexpensive, yet good. You aren't in a seperate room, so you can hear the other people speaking, but nobody... More

The owner is extremely pleasant, Vietnamese lady who has lived in the US for several years. Very clean environment offering a huge variety of services. I tried the 90 min shiatsu and Swedish massage. Very good and experienced masseuse. I decided to book a second session for tomorrow. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a good massage. More

the SPA service there is good but since they only use partitions to separate the space, you can hear the conversation from other people. More

Booked an appointment and was very pleased with the service. Nice cosy atmosphere. We nearly didn't want to leave. It was so good. The service staff were skilled and the massage is very soothing. Definitely recommend to everyone! More

My wife and I are in Vietnam on business and found the spa through our hotel. Everything about the experience had been wonderful from the ombiamce to the pedi, mani and massage. It is an oasis in the middle of HCMC that shouldn't be missed by wierry travelers. The tea is even delicious. I can't recommend this experience more highly.... More
