[MrsValla1715]

I have an upcoming cruise on the Disney Dream and i hear a lot of good things of the Spa but I'm having a hard time deciding what is going to be the best one?.. It my first time so I'm looking for the full experience and LOTs of relaxation time!

i'm interested in some perspectives on a particular type of massage or treatment. I want to purchase Spa time for my husband as a birthday gift, but I really don't have perspective on what might be a good spa experience on the Dream. TIA!

I think my favorite is the Hot Stone Massage.

Ive done a swedish massage on carnival before and it was good i just wanted to try something different..

The services aren't that unique from other spas. Any massage can be a good one as long as you speak up about what you like or don't like and pressure used. Personally, I love the hot stone massages. My favorite thing about the spa on the Dream we're the theme showers and relaxing on the heated tile beds.

Don't forget to go into the Spa on embarkation day as they will have a special that is a bit of a "taster menu" for different things for about 75 minutes. Facial, back massage, scalp massage and foot massage I think are included.

Wife likes the hot stone massage.

I have to agree with the hot stone massage! Amazing!

 

[rhinodadz]

+1 for the hot stone massage!

There is some special, I believe called Alone Time (but, I could be wrong), where you get a massage or a facial and then you have your own jacuzzi and chill out area for a while. @franandaj posted about it in one of her trip reports. Maybe she will see this and post about it. It may have been on the Wonder, though.

I haven't tried the treatments but the Rainforest Day Pass itself was pretty amazing and affordable! (16$)

 

[MrsValla1715]

This is all great information thanks for all the feedback!

Another vote for Rainforest - it's the least expensive per hour, and the most flexible to fit into your schedule, and it is so relaxing.

I have to say that I have been disappointed in hot stone massages. I can't remember if that's what I did on DCL or not. They seem too weak, but I like medium to high pressure. I am thinking of the bamboo massage, because I have not been anywhere that does that. Anyone have any opinions?

 

[MrsValla1715]

@soniam i haven't done bamboo, but on the last cruise i was on was Carnival and they did a orientation kind of thing and showed us a sample on our arm of how the Bamboo would feel. In my opinion if your looking for medium to high pressure i would recommend it, it seems like they put a little more pressure with this kind of massage. I was actually going to pick this massage for my husband he looks for the same thing too.

That's what I was hoping. I could picture someone rolling the bamboo back and forth, kind of like a high density foam roller. Thanks

The bamboo was enjoyable for me! Marius was my guy on the Magic some years ago.
