Spa Edgewood

Spa Edgewood was exactly what I was expecting. Very professional, accommodating and great service. I had a facial with Gina and she catered to my sensitive skin needs. The only thing I would change is the view- I wish it faced the lake instead of the front of the hotel.

My friends and I had made appointments for 2pm on a Sat. We were greeted with champagne. Our masseuses were on time to grab us as we waited in the hot tub area (faces the front entrance, no lake view). 2/3 of our experiences were disappointing. One of the staff was sick? And dozing off during the 80 min custom massage (should’ve taken PTO). The lymphatic drainage massage was also underwhelming. For the price we paid (22% tip - 19% to our masseuse and 3% to support staff) bringing total payment to $400-500, we would not recommend this spa. The hotel itself was beautiful though!

The spa is located on the 2nd Floor at the Lodge at Edgewood Tahoe. I love how it's set back and not in a high traffic area of the hotel. I had a 50 minute Purifying Facial - here's the menu description: "Utilizing powerful probiotics, Eminence has created a safe and effective regiment that deeply cleans skin, while improving acne and texture, leaving you with a fresh complexion." There is a 80 minute option as well - if you have the time & budget, I suggest go for the longer treatment! (i say go for any longer option, personally). My treatment was so relaxing that I slept through half of it but my treatment provider was amazing - I was so relaxed, I forgot her name! I had to rush to another appointment after my treatment (sad face) so I missed the opportunity to "Sip & Spa" which is an

I booked a massage a couple of days prior and was so impressed from start to finish. The spa itself is beautiful, they have a hot steam room, an outdoor covered hot tub, and locker room amenities any woman could dream of. There’s also a coed relaxation room with super comfy lounge chairs, which was such a nice touch. Cassidy did my massage and she was absolutely incredible. I even upgraded on the spot to add another 30 minutes because I didn’t want it to end. I get massages regularly, but she was truly phenomenal. This was my first time here, and I’ll definitely be coming back to see Cassidy again.

Sadly this establishment tricked us into spending $368 more than we originally signed up for. Originally we requested two treatments that would cost $480 total. During the appointment the esthetician suggested that we try a slightly different service and said, “it will cost just a little bit more” but was sure to never mention exactly how much more it would cost. It turns out her recommendations increased the cost by $368. If we still paid the original $480 and left a 22% tip, the total cost would’ve been $585. Instead, with the 22% tip the cost was $1,034.56. We ended up paying $501 more than we should’ve. Sadly I did not put this altogether until after we left. The thing that tipped me off is that we had two different skincare objectives but the esthetician recommended the exact same ad
