Spa Santangelo

Beautiful, quaint, relaxing place place for some mind and body care. My massage was excellent. Melissa found every knot and worked them out with care, using both touch and sound vibrations. I want to bring my daughters next time for a spa day.

Wow! The first true pleasurable treat after 13 plus weeks of sheltering In place. Top of my list ... a booking to return to Melissa's massage studio for couples massages. Masks are required, Signs are everywhere, an outdoor sink to wash hands, many places in her lovely, peaceful environment to social distance. Appointments are staggered, 2 per day allowing for one to easily relax, read or meditate. Melissa also wore a mask and gloves during the entire massage. She is an incredible intuitive and given the time away, her massages were fantastic. We left feeling restored. A perfect day at this forest retreat.

This is a very lovely place. Surrounded by beautiful redwoods, Melissa has created a wonderful space that is very relaxing and filled with positive energy. I have received several massages from her and always leave feeling so much better.

Not just a massage—this is a full-body retreat. This isn’t your typical corporate spa. It’s a laid-back, beautiful, and clean space tucked between two magical redwood fairy rings. Surrounded by towering trees and birdsong, the vibe is calming from the moment you arrive. You can feel that this place was created with care. Start your day with a soul-soothing walk at Henry Cowell (just down the road), then treat your body to deep rest and renewal at this small but extraordinary spa. Once you’re on the table, everything else melts away. When it’s over, you’ll already be thinking about your next visit—because spots book up fast. Honor your body. Feed your soul. Go.

This place is truly a one-of-a-kind rare gem in the Santa Cruz mountains! The atmosphere is magical, a gorgeous Ambiance setting, and all the workers there are kind, respectful, and true Healers. You will walk out of here a brand new version of you completely centered and relaxed. Must experience it and I will be coming for years to come.
