Debating between a massage at either Point Grace or The Palms. Prices seem pretty comparable. Point Grace on the website looks great because you are outside near the ocean, but The Palms looks ultra pampering. Can anyone help me decide?

I had a massage at the Palms, it was incredible! Their Spa is absolutely gorgeous.

I have not had one at Point Grace, but I can tell you, everything in Provo is first class.

I had a massage at Point Grace when we were there in November. It's a small spa. The reception area is in a little hut, and the services are given in little huts. It was windy when we were there, but if it's not, the sides of the huts open completely to the ocean. It's very intimate and soothing to be so close to the ocean but in a cozy hut.

I would guess that the spa at the Palms is fancier, bigger, more polished. I liked the cozy feel of the huts at Point Grace. You'll just have to decide which style is more for you.

Thank you both for your input. Maybe I can talk my husband into splurging and letting me try both :)

I hope you get to try both. I think that we arrive around the same time. Don't take all the reservations. :-)

I have decided to try the half day at the Palms. It sounds like a great deal and leaves half a day to book an excursion. I am so used to NYC "spas", that regardless of the price, put you in a cubical with enough room for the therapist to walk around. The Palms looks like it would be a unforgettable experience and I would hate myself if I missed it. How often do you experience being pampered at a gorgeous oasis. If I am not to tired from doing the "hands up" dance I will try to squeeze another massage in at Thalasso or get a quick one CM or Sanay.

I looked at another spa at Beaches. Wasn't really impress with their offers. We'll switch spa stories when we get back.

Safe journies....
