Arrabelle Spa

So it was right. This is one of the spot you should try when you in Vail. I heard there’s another spa on the other side but I didn’t get a chance to check that out. Anyway, I like to go to spa and so far this is one of my favorite. The place is clean and neat, they literally provide everything for you, you can just walk in without bringing anything but yourself and your clothes lol! I got their deep tissue massage for 50 mins, twice! I love it that much hahaha the jacuzzi or hot tub as they called it is a good size. They got sauna and steam room. The shower is fully equip with the stuff you need, the vanity as well. They even provide you hair brush, tooth brush, tooth paste, hair spray, etc. Try it and you know what I’m talking about. Good place to end you day after long day play at the slope.

So I am not a girl that usually gets massages. For one, I don’t like making appointments to go do something after work that just seems like another errand. For two, my first massage experience was awkward and kind of hilarious so I haven’t been too excited to do it again. But since I don’t ski and was in Vail for a week, we thought it might be fun to get a massage. Good way to work out the kinks from snowmobiling and snowshoeing if nothing else.
I looked at multiple places to get a massage but Arrabelle won out because it was $ 155 while others were more like $ 175 and up for 50 minutes. (Let’s ignore the fact that I forgot where I booked it and ended up at a different spa before remembering I booked here… DOH! I do drink a lot though… hahaa).
You get there and fill out a questionnaire about your health and what pressure you prefer and such. Then they take you into the locker room where you put your stuff in a locker, put on your flip flops and robe, and can relax by the hot tub or get in the sauna or whatever. We just sat there and talked until we went to the waiting room where your massage therapist comes to fetch you.
So you get to choose your oil scent — I chose orange so it would be stimulating… last thing I need is to be sleepy and passed out all day. The massage was good, it was relaxing. I didn’t talk, the music was quiet and non-​distracting. She did a good job draping things and worked a few kinks out on my shoulders and such. Overall, not awkward or hilarious like before… perfectly normal! By the end though I was kind of antsy to get out of there though, so you can see that I may still not be the ideal massage customer.
Afterwards they bring you out in the waiting room and give you a little bowl of gelato. I hadn’t eaten all day so I ate that gelato like it was the last food on earth. Fucking yum. Then we got dressed. Let me mention that the dressing room was insane. Hair dryers, curling irons, straighteners, pony tail holders, brushes, hairspray, deodorant, lotions, etc. and so forth. Honestly you could likely get completely ready here without bringing anything with you. Also you are allowed to use the gym and the sauna/​spa for the day after the massage… if working out is your thing on vacation then that’s a good thing.
I would say if you like massages then this is a nice spa with good amenities and for a more reasonable price than other places in Vail.

This is the best massage I have gotten in a long time! Janey (spelling) is a genius and followed every direction I gave her about my pains and aches. It was pricey ($ 155 for 50 min deep tissue) but worth every cent! This is Vail in February! What do you expect? The facilities are extremely nice and clean and the jacuzzi just delightful. Very elegant and perfect day on a much needed vacation. I will be back and some!

Since I’m sadly unable to ski this winter, so I booked some spa appointments while others went out to ski on a recent weekend and was SUPER impressed with the spa here. We arrived 15 – 20 minutes early so we wouldn’t be rushed with checking in, changing into robes, etc., and I’m glad we did. It gave us a chance to scope out the amenities and think about how we wanted to relax after our treatments… which we definitely did.
While I was pleased with my treatment, I think my favorite part of the service was the ability to use the women’s locker room. We ended up being in there for almost 2 hours after our appointments were over! Spa, steam room, sauna, nap on the chaise — you name it. I admittedly even took an irresponsibly long shower, but loved every minute of it.
By the time we were ready to go, it had stopped snowing and the sun had decided to make an appearance just in time for us to catch up with the rest of the group for dinner at Elway’s. We spa-​goers of course smelled and looked fabulous, while the other half of our group had to change at the car in the parking lot. :)

I enjoyed the most delicious massage yesterday at this spa. Wendy does fantastic work! I would highly recommend an 80 minute massage for a trip to heaven!

They offered a fall special $ 99 for a 50 minute massage. This special is only until Nov. 20^th. I loved this spa– the design elements and details to finish make you want to stay here forever. The floor is made by old rail way ties and it’s a beautiful wood floor. The lighting and doors are beautiful. The women’s area has a large, really hot hot tub. None of us could stay in it for long. There is a steam room and sauna too. However what makes me give it 5 stars is because of my massage with Olga. It ranks in the top massage I have ever had. It was perfect pressure and she really worked on my neck and shoulders. I was really tight and needed someone to work out the knots. She really knows how to get into the muscles and provide the therapy you need. I was sore the next day which is always a great sign of a great massage. These are the massages I like a little pain not some foo foo relaxation massage with light pressure. A masseuse like Olga is hard to find. I wanted to come out feeling like a wet noodle and I did.
I want to plan another girl’s trip to Vail and come back to the Arrabelle Spa.

If you ever wanted to pretend you were a goddess in Ancient Greece, this is a good spa to try out. The amenities are lovely, with a beautiful separate hot tub and sauna for each gender and great new locker rooms with lots of Rock Resort products to use. The staff is just awesome too — knowledgable, helpful, and just great at everything they do (mani/​pedi/​massage/​spray tan/​exfoliaton). It’s definitely a little pricey, but you will want to eat their cocount sherbet (a treat after your service) and hang out in their relaxation room forever and ever.

Still a nice place but it no longer benefits from my positive endorsement on Unilocal.I arrived 10 minutes late — and that was my fault. But 10 minutes late for a 25 minute massage means that I ended up with about 7 minutes of a pathetic excuse for a massage and still ended up with a $ 95 tab.
Previously I had been a good, loyal and regular customer ever since the spa opened. Next time I guess I’ll be looking for a new place.
To be fair: their nail salon is second to none. They use the best Sparitual products and I leave with healthier nails if that’s even possible.
It is really a lovely spa and it’s too bad I made this one fatal mistake.

Very dissappointed! OVER PRICED and SUB-​PAR results!
I went for a mani-​pedi with my 6year old daughter and it was the most expensive and useless mani-​pedi we ever got! The technician kept messing up my gel mani and I have been to Korean shops that do a better job. I had great expectations from the SPA.
Then they charged me $ 400 (included a 20% tip for each nail tech, bizzare???) and charged me for extras that I never got (maybe they think that people dont look at thier bills and will pay whatever they charge).
The techs never informed me of any additional charges. Also they charged full adult rates for my 6 year old for a simple mani/​pedi. I have gotten fancier stuff done at the Ritz SPA and never had such an unreasonable bill! When i complained, the lady took $ 48 off but kept the 20% tip for both techs … I was so upset with myself for going there.
I will never go back there and wouldnt recommend it to anyone for the mani-​pedi.

Great morning spa treat in the heart of lions head. I had a massage, good not great, which resulted in minus one star. I felt that the masseur became less attentive midway through the massage and may have thought I was asleep. Massage a bit overpriced for service.
Facial was fantastic, the facialist reviewed my current skin regimen before beginning and went straight to work. Mild enzyme peel, extractions, masque, results amazing.

I was very disappointed with my manicure. They knew ahead of time i had gels that needed to be taken off. I work with computers and the moment i walked in i told my manicurist that i had been typing a lot and needed a hand massage. Sadly the spa didnt do well with time management as i found out they had another appointment immediately after mine. I barely got a hand message (at most a minute) and the nail polish started to chip a day later. I dont even ski/​snowboard so its definitely not due to wearing gloves or rough activities.
In my opinion not worth the money spent.

I had such a fabulous treatment at the Arrabelle Spa last year that I had to come back for another round this year after 3 days of skiing in Vail. I arrived about 45 minutes early to take a soak in the luxurious jacuzzi spa to relax and unwind after a day of skiing. I had the Vin Chaud Treatment and after skiing in Vail, this is the way to end your trip. The experience starts with a dead sea salt scrub after which you’re wrapped up in a heated wrap for about 10 minutes; during this time the therapist gives you a wonderful scalp massage; this is followed by a body massage and mini-​facial. After everything was over and I was in relaxation heaven, the therapist gave me a glass of wine and some coconut sorbet. I highly recommend this treatment. I will definitely come back next year!

After an injury to my shoulder, I called Arrabelle to help. They really took care of me and their facility is top notch. I couldn’t be happier.

This place is awesome! I definitely recommend getting there early to soak away your cares in the beautiful hot tub located in the lady’s locker room. When your done with that you can dry yourself off in the dry sauna or get all steamy in the beautifully tiled room of steam! When your done with that head on out to the relaxation room in the beautiful fluffy robe they give you and just chill out! They have light snacks such as apples, nuts, dried fruit and chocolate covered pretzels! If your appetite is not satiated by those little snacks they have a full spa menu available. My only complaint was that this service was not advertised and I only saw one menu in the locker room! The woman who ordered a yogurt par fit just happened to flag down a spa employee passing through. I am not sure if there is an easier way to get your food.
My spa technician came out to great me and brought me to a beautiful room for a great massage. You even get your choice of three oils. Unscented, french lavender or cedar. I did not want to smell like a tree so I picked the french lavender. My masseuse was great and really listened to what I wanted!
I then was taken to get my Vitamin Infusion facial. The facialist was very knowledgeable and when I left I felt like I glowed!
The best part is until November most services are 30% off! You also get a gift certificate for $ 25.00 good for your next service! This Rock Resort Rocks!
