BEST Thing: This place gives complimentary (2) glasses of Wine or Mimosa's! SCORE!!!
My husband and I have frequented spa's together and find it to be a great relaxing time together. I booked Muses in Fresno to spend the afternoon there together on our last day of summer vacation without the kids. And.... Epic Fail!!!! ... the mens and woman's lounges are all separate, so basically we spent the afternoon apart, alone, and texting one another about the amenities. This is what we found:
Are you a gentleman looking for a day spa? Read below. Ladies, skip this section I have lots to tell you (all good news for you).
Guys:
1) The lounge area for men is SMALL! No chase, only 1 sofa and 1 chair, not a place you want to share w/other men to lounge and relax in.
2) Only women seem to work there, so they are hard to find to get any help (probably feel uncomfortable to walk in every 5 minutes to check on things like they do the woman's side- in fact they are kind of psycho picking up the woman's side quickly). My husband did not have coffee in his lounge (he was the ONLY one there) and he waited 10 minutes for the attendant to walk in to request coffee. Yes guys, you also you get up to 2 glasses of wine/mimosas/champagne.
3) My husband is used to standard items for grabs on the counter: shaving cream, disposable razors, disposable combs, etc. None of that was provided.
4) Here was the game changer: No sauna for the men! It is on the woman's side, and we did not realize this when we booked. Men, you get a TV- whoopie! Oh, and the men had granola bars.
Ladies:
1) Amazing lounge! 2 cozy chases, long "L" sofa.
2) Coffee, tea, and of course wine/mimosas/champagne. Which were not offered at first, I had to ask for the alcohol. Later I heard one attendant ask a customer if she wanted a drink... maybe because it was 11am they did not ask me?
3) Attendants so on top of cleaning and providing services that if you put down your robe to enter the sauna (in towel), your robe will be gone when you get out. Then they have to go hunt it down because you left your locker key in the pocket. They need hooks outside the sauna.
4) Your robe will be warm when they hand it to you :)
5) Lockers are huge, will fit everything.
6) one large shower and 1 small shower. Shampoo etc provided.
7) I saw a Pureology product at the sink, hairspray, other items.
8) SAUNA! A good size, fits 5-6 comfortably. Just remember to hide your robe!
Funny thing: there is a sign "no cell phone use"- HA! I am alone in a warm robe, with wine... I want to use my PHONE! Play on Facebook, read articles, play the Frozen Free Fall game, etc. I do not have 2 Minions fighting over my phone to play the Duck Duck Moose games, I get my phone all to myself! I get it, no talking on the phone... but everyone had their phones out the whole time, and it was glorious :)
My husband did a body treatment- detox wrap/scrub water table thing. He liked it. Mud wrap, hot towels, detox, etc. I did the basic Glow Scrub on the water table. Honestly, I felt like my $90 treatment was not worth it. My husband felt his was worth the money ($120). Everyone says the facials are amazing, so guess what I will be booking next week! My good friend got a massage that was phenomenal, so believe me...I will be going back.
We now feel then need to find a day spa where me and my husband can lounge together... I know Chuckchansi's spa has a couples lounge room... with Chocolate Strawberries!
Ladies, get the girls together and book your afternoon at Muses!
Cheers,
Auggie
