      Maria did an outstanding job. I had a 120 min Swedish and Hot Stone Massage. The best massage ever. I will be back soon.Room was very cold. But I survived

      Destiny did a great facial. My skin felt so soft and cleaned. The table was too high. Needs to have a safe step stool or adjust the tables in each rom the same height.

      The Retreat is the best spa in Baton Rouge. The prices are fantastic and they have a wonderful staff! Carrie is a phenomenal massage therapist, truly taking the time to listen to her clients and work on troubling areas for them. I always feel better after a visit with her!
      From the moment you check in, you feel taken care of at The Retreat. Heather at the front desk is so welcoming and sets the tone for a really relaxing appointment.

      This was my first time at The Retreat (I'm a 70 year old male). I had a 60 minute deep tissue massage with Shay. She was very professional and her technique was excellent. I had a few problem areas (shoulder, hip) which I pointed out to her and she took special care on these areas.
      I will return to this spa.

      My husband and I love coming here for couples massages. The atmosphere is always calming and relaxing. The showers, the drinks, the robes all of it have us leaving feeling relaxed and smelling good. I also love that we can book online!

      Such a wonderful experience at The Retreat this morning. Greeted by a smiling receptionist and brought back to a calm relaxation space while I awaited my massage. Shay was a thorough and kind masseuse who listened to my needs and provided a therapeutic experience. Already scheduled my next massage!

      Me and 2 of my girlfriends went on Saturday Feb 24th 2024 for my birthday. We had a great experience for the most part. My best friend had Keiaha for her hour massage and she came back and told us it wasn't the best and that she didn't even get her arms done and nonpressure was applied and that the lady wore gloves the whole time basically giving her friction burns. We laughed about it because I had India and man she was amazing the whole time and worked all the kinks in my body. Then for my second series I had keisha the person my friend had for her massage. When I tell you I was so glad I got India for my massage because my body wrap service I for was not enjoyable. She wore her gloves the whole time making it an awkward feeling when she put the seaweed stuff on me and she only did my service areas not ever lifting my arm or legs to put on the side of my legs or arms. And then she scrubed with the brush but never applied any pressure it was almost like you were getting this done by a roller. It didn't feel good at all. The gloves made it terrible. But what disappointed me was the fact that the spa never told us or asked us if our person wearing gloves was ok with us . I belive they should disclose this and didn't. And she cheated you time. It was supposed be an hour I set my timer and it was 40 minutes and even tho she cheated me time I was glad because again it was my birthday and I was happy she was done because tho whole thing felt weird. WE asked if there was a manager we could speak to to give feedback and was t old that we can do a review my friend stated I don't wanna d o that because it won't be good and the lady told us well that's all you can do. I would only go back if India was doing my services because she was so amazing. It sucks because in a way this was my first ever spa e experience a d I think keiaha killed it in a negative way. I'm glad I got to spend time with my ladies but the spa needs to let people know that their massage person will be wearing gloves. I have never left a review for anything ever in my life but being told you can not even talk to management to give feedback and that the only way is to do a review was surprising. Because of the same person keisha I would have to give this experience a 2 out of 5 .

      My significant other and I had the couples massage on 2/19. Both of us went to change and was given the shared between patrons the .20cent white beach slippers and the 'brown' robe which is shared between patrons and not washed in-between use after each patron. Know if you go there, the slippers and robe you will be given will not be clean and is shared w/all the other people. I wondered why a place didn't have clean and fluffy white robes, but you'll immediately find out why, you'll notice you're given a 'brown' robe; check the inside tag in the robe and you'll see how dingy and
      unclean the tag is....just smell the robe. Dirty. The white flip flops are dirty and scuffed up. The place is not clean. The trash was overflowing. There is hair and debris everywhere on the floors and counters and empty water bottles around. You will literally be sticking to the floor in the used dirty slippers that you'll be given. The floor throughout the place has NEVER been swept or mopped or shampooed. In the main walkway the floor is Black w/sticky gunk. We both declined the cocktail offer for fear the glassware most likely wasn't cleaned.

      Each of us had separate masseuse ladies. I had Bridgette and she did an awesome body massage job. 5 stars for Bridgette. I believe my significant others masseuse' name was Shay, a cute Black girl and he said she gave a 5-star massage. He tipped both ladies.

      The massage room we were in has a wall mirror; the wall mirror has not been cleaned. Looks like oil and some type of prints are all over the mirror in the massage room.

      Overall, both massage ladies gave a full 5-star body massage.
      Put your health first as you will be sharing the 'robe' and 'slippers' and pray you don't get a rash. The Retreat atmosphere and cleanliness is a 1 star.

      Some advice to The Retreat... you can easily hire a cleaning company to come in and clean up the place a few nights a week. You can also hire a laundry service and you can order online unisex disposable slippers in bulk.

      I've been going to The Retreat for many years now. I use many of the spas in town and this one is in there with the best. Always get great facials and massages there.
