Spa Day Planning Tips
When to Schedule
The best time for spa is typically Saturday mid-morning. Here's why:
- After Friday night (you'll need the recovery)
- Before your big Saturday night out
- Leaves afternoon open for lunch and getting ready
Booking for Groups
- Call ahead: For groups of 6+, call the spa directly rather than booking online
- Book together: Request appointments at the same time so you can enjoy the experience together
- Ask about packages: Many spas offer bachelorette group packages with champagne or add-ons
- Timing: Book 2-4 weeks ahead for peak season (summer weekends)
What to Do at the Spa
Not everyone needs the same treatment. Mix and match based on budget and preferences:
- Massage: Classic choice, 50 or 80 minutes
- Facial: Great if you want to glow for photos
- Mani/pedi: More social, can chat during
- Body treatment: Scrubs and wraps for full relaxation
Planning the Full Weekend?
Spa morning + boat afternoon is the perfect bachelorette combo.
