Senses - A Disney Spa - Have you done it??

Sounds utterly delightful! However, for our family, we would not want to give up one second of park time for something we could splurge on just as easily at home.

I did it on vacation simply because I could not justify doing it at home. I went one afternoon when my son and husband were at the pool- we were there for 12 days so no one was missing out on anything. It was a couple of hours where I actually just got to relax and have some me time And since I've been going to Disney since I was 11 months old- I could "sacrifice" park time.

I can certainly understand that. Glad you enjoyed it. I often feel like I need a vacation from our Disney vacation when I return home! They tend to be no more than 5 days so we have to cram a lot in. Sleep and relaxation are the first things to go by the wayside!

I went to SSR spa before it was re-imagined and it was WONDERFUL! I got a maple sugar scrub/massage. SOOOOO worth it (only on a long vacation- not a long weekend)

Thanks!

Sorry to go all zombie and resurrect an old thread but does anyone have any new experiences with the spa at GF?

Also, on the website it says that a 20% gratuity will be added to each spa service. Is that on top of the price listed or the price already includes the gratuity? I'm not familiar with tipping etiquette in the US when it comes to massages, how much and when should I tip each person?

I have had a massage and pedicure at each of the spa's, GF, Yacht, and Saratoga. I must say that all three were great and worth the cost as it was nice to relax and rejuvenate in the middle of a trip. My favorite was actually the one I got at the Yacht Club. Just a great overall experience.

I booked a manicure and pedicure. I added on the disney signature designs. Can I get it for both my finger and toes? Or is it $25 each? The woman on the phone didn't really describe what exactly it was.

I think I will add this to my bucket list if I make it into the College Program. Have to make sure I can afford it. I know I will need time to relax.
