Dulcinea's Insight

Citysearch offers customer reviews and editorial coverage of specific topics ("Sanitary" and "Satisfaction" are two examples). Type the name of the spa you are considering into the search box and you'll get directions and a link to its Web site.

If you are looking for more information on destination spas, you might also consider visiting a travel magazine like Travel and Leisure for reviews of some of the year's most highly acclaimed locales.

Users new to the spa experience should know that visiting a spa is not like being a guest at a regular hotel; spa goers follow specific etiquette. The Web sites recommended here help you familiarize yourself with spa culture and the specific location you choose, so that you can feel relaxed as soon as you arrive.
