If you have the time and money buy a package deal and spend the 3 or 4 hours. You will be beyond relaxed once you are done. This is the ultimate spa experience. More

We booked one of the private baths for two a month or so before our trip and thought it would be a wonderful way to end our stay in Santa Fe and recover from a long road trip. A few days before arriving in Santa Fe, my husband asked if we could book a foot massage as he had done... More

We go there to relax. Wife gets a massage, and I nap in the public tub until she's done. We then go to a private hot tub for an hour more of relaxing. We prefer the mornings to see less people. More

It's $25, which seems a little steep, but you do get as many towels as you want, a locker, kimono, and sandals. Communal tub is kinda small, but the water was fabulous. Lovely atmosphere up in the foothills above Santa Fe- very quiet and peaceful. Service is very friendly and they provide a couple different kinds of lotions and hairdryers... More

I was very impressed with the setting of Ten Thousand Waves - extremely well done - down to the beautifully soft lighting. A lovely evening spent with some lady friends in the separate Women's Spa area. Even the relatively-long climb of stairs up from the lower parking lot helps "transcend" one's state of mind in preparation for the relaxation to... More

A Santa Fe Institution with a lot of Japanese Flair. Great massages, hot tubs and healthy snacks and teas and some shopping. Well run and clean. More

I don't need to leave another gushy review of this place. There are plenty here. It is worth the trip and worth the price. Staff is a lot of fun, especially Kaz. They are building a noodle restaurant to be opened later this year, I think. Go! Go! Go! I would suggest that they have a tea house, light sushi,... More
