Bliss Spa South Beach

I was gifted a double choc pedicure by a couple of girlfriends. As they described it, it was «definitely the one Anne Hathaway would be getting if there were a pedicure scene in The Princess Diaries.» Turns out, they were right!
Now, it’s located inside the W but there’s a separate entrance for the spa on Collins Ave, so I’d suggest finding street parking nearby and walking over instead of the pricey valet. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a very friendly guy that directed me to the elevator that landed me in the spa directly upstairs. Turns out, everyone I came in contact with at Bliss was super nice and welcoming.
Now, the pedicure. To start, it smelled like chocolate my entire treatment due to the hot chocolate soak. Now, where does the DOUBLE chocolate come in? Well, at first I was given two bite-​sized brownies and after that, chocolate ice cream! Indulgent? Yes. Maybe a bit over the top but it was certainly fun!
My feet were left feeling fabulous afterwards. For someone who usually just gets manis and pedis and a regular and much cheaper salon, this was a very fun experience and a treat I was very thankful for.

Sweet spot in Sobe to get the nails did up fast an fuss free. It seems clean. Tools are peel pack so I guess have been in the cleaner. It is real bright in here and like sum people’ve said, it isn’t like zen-​world-​time with ocean sound music. Like, that’s a good thing. I mean, the ocean is just outside if u want ocean sound, right? N E Ways, when I’m in a rush an want to feel a bit special, I come here to doll up my toes n fingers. Warning — for the nail station, it like faces the foot station, so just hope that someone isn’t like sitting there staring you down, like wen i went a bunch of weeks ago — like i know my boob-​crack was showing, but really. it is sobe. everyone’s cracks r showing everywhere…

Beautiful location and great masseuse personnel, but the overall experience was just okay. I decided to purchase 4 groupon Coupons for the Bliss 75. I called ahead and made all the reservations for my guests and was told we could use the pool 2 hours beforehand since our massage appointments were not back to back. Upon checking in they told us we could not use the pool. Then we had to get a manager and deal with that for twenty minutes. Finally we got access to the pool, but not a good start to a relaxation day.
The actual spa area is great. They have a steam shower, sauna, and robes. They also have tea, water, and some bites before you start the massage. My masseuse Fredrick was incredible. My mother said Lelila was amazing as well and best massage she has received. However, half way through our 75 minute massage the alarm went off for 25 minutes. Needless to say that was not a zen experience. The staff was also unapologetic about it as if it was something normal…
Checking out was a nightmare using the groupon. The staff upstairs told me their computers weren’t working. We went downstairs and they told me the same thing. Part of the groupon was a 25.00 retail coupon. Most things on retail are well over the 25.00 mark. When we choose our items it literally took one hour to check out because they couldn’t figure out how to apply the groupon. We even had to leave because we were going to miss our dinner reservations waiting for them to check us out.
It was a good massage, but not an overall relaxing experience. For the price and headache of using the groupon I would try some where else. Not worth it.

I’ll start with saying that it’s a great venue and the massage was amazing! LEILA is the go to masseuse! Very professional, nice with great energy!
Tip — use Groupon — $ 109 for a 75 min massage + $ 25 to spend on products. Not a bad deal at all!
Now you might ask yourself why the hell would he give 3 stars for this place if it’s Such a good experience?
Well it’s mainly due to the fact that after such a relaxing massage we found ourselves waiting almost an hour for the cashier to close our account and redeem the Groupon.

My day at the Bliss spa was amazing.
The facilities are clean and smelled amazing. Staff was professional and offered a free bottle of cleanser after my treatment.
I removed one star because there is no hot tub or pool. If there is, then the staff did not make us aware of one, which is equally worth the removal of a star. I would’ve loved a quick tour of the facilities just so we knew where everything was. Higher end spas usually have a steam room, bliss only had a dry sauna and steam shower.
I will totally be back if I’m ever in Miami again.

Massage experience was excellent and so was the eucalyptus shower. However, the checkout experience was brutal with the Groupon, they charged me wrong and couldn’t figure out how to correct it on the system. Waited over 30 minutes just to check out, it was so frustrating!

Love love love this place I’ve been getting Brazilians massages and facials here for about five years I just cannot picture going anywhere else bliss spa I love you and your staff you treat me like a queen

Audrey rocks the triple oxygen facial. The Bliss wax feels like butter and Audrey almost put me to sleep during my Brazilian wax. I am usually screaming and anticipating pain. Not here. I had the best spa experience.

I’ve only tried the facials here and they are amazing. Definitely recommend the Triple Oxygen for a cleansing and soothing facial. The Steep Clean is truly an exfoliating one, a bit more pricey but worth. Do ask for Samantha, she is meticulous when it comes to extractions and very knowledgeable. Definitely worth a try while in Miami!

This is my favorite Bliss installation ever! I’ve been to the Bliss spa in Midtown Manhattan, but this one really takes the cake! Speaking of cake, this Bliss has amazing little snacks that are very light and really set the mood. The ambiance is to die for. The coloring and overall vibe is just so relaxing. The service there is A++++. I got a full leg wax and my fingernails painted. The person who waxed my legs made sure it didn’t hurt too much, but she was very quick, which was perfect. The selection of nail polishes is out of this world, and the woman who painted them did a great job! I would highly recommend this place for anyone who needs a place to pamper and treat themselves.

It was too pricey for the service, and the amenities were mediocre compared to other spas I have been to.
They also try to get you to buy an add on, which is extremely expensive and takes away time from the treatment you original paid for.

I truly love this place. I have been coming here for my facials for a couple of years now. Audrey, is just simply the best. I have gotten millions of facials everywhere and no one has topped this incredible woman. Besides, her face and skin is just Amazing so she must really know what she is doing.
Spa is Clean, smells amazing, friendly staff. Overall just great.
Parking somethimes is hectic. They have valet and you can validate your ticket with the spa and pay like $ 10 – 15.

Just BLISS-​ful!
I had the most exotic and unique facial. Triple Oxygen Facial [their signature facial]. Masha was great! She listened and attended to every need my face was crying for. She took the time to consult with me and communicated through each step to ensure I was comfortable and relaxed. I left GLOWING!
The environment was so refreshed and modern. The team makes you feel so welcomed from the first greeting at the front desk to the next greeting on the second floor. The locker area was attended at every minute, so for someone new to the facility, it was great to have that support there to show me around. Did I mention the yummies. You can definitely work up a slight appetite after a rejuvenating facial. The nice cold cucumber water, cheese and crackers and did I mention the chocolate pastry… was definitely something to make me happy until lunch time.
With all the great services they have to offer, I will be back for more. I truly felt I was at a luxury SPAAAHHHH… thank you to all for making this a memorable day for me.

Awesome Experience
I received a massage and facial as a gift and was thrilled with both. Super-​relaxing massage with Nelly, just the right amount of pressure. I’m kinda new to facials, and never thought I would enjoy it as much as I did — Oxygen blast — very cool, thanks Marsha! Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. Loved the patio, and in the lounge maybe the best brownies ever!

I had the «great expectations» prenatal massage here with Charles. It was wonderful, I’ve had a few other prenatal massages at other places and this was by far the best so far. They had special pillows so i could lay on my stomach, my back was very sore and is much better now.

Compared to all of the AH-​MAHZING spas in Miami Beach, this one kinda falls short.
Its not your traditional spa… Im used to going to a spa where everything is very «zen» like. its usually dark, with candles, soft voices, and some classical music in the background, you feel very undisturbed and calm… this place is stark white with tons of natural light coming in and details of bright blue. so it feels a bit more «fun house-​like» than spa like… If this is your style then you may like this place…
Other than this, the treatments were good and the price was comparable to other hotel spas… I was just expecting something more relaxing and soothing…
Side note: do not valet park at the W, which is in the $ 20+ range… park across the street from the W Hotel at he public outdoor parking lot, arrive a bit early to find a spot!

4 stars because you have to pay for valet. The spa should really validate that. Its very small with only a few amenities, but the massage was great and I had a very relaxing experience. The spa itself is very pretty. I went with a groupon and I’m not sure if I’d go back and pay full price.

I love coming to Bliss for massages and facials. It is attached to the W Hotel. Parking is either valet at the hotel or if you can find it in the lots nearby/​on the street. I have paid full-​price for treatments and also used vouchers for discounts. They automatically charge gratuity here, just an FYI. The staff, from the check-​in person, receptionist and all the technicians, have been nothing but friendly and professional when I’ve gone. They are very good at recommending products if you ask them for help and all the services I’ve received here have been very relaxing.
The lounge is very nice and spacious. They offer snacks and drinks in the waiting area as well. My favorite are the mini-​brownies. The changing room is well-​appointed and has everything you need to take a shower afterwards or just freshen up after your appointment. The best part is you get to use all the great scented Bliss products. They have a steam room as well, so be sure to leave time for that. The only reason I knock this down a star is because it would be nice if they also had hot and cold plunge pools to relax in, in addition to the steam room.

I noticed that there are not that many good reviews. I am a bit surprised.
My friend and I purchased a massage from Groupon. We scheduled the appointment over the phone.
Valet parking is offered at the hotel for $ 18 with validation. The valet Parker gave us direction on how to get to the spa. Yes the spa is not located inside the hotel. It is just around the corner on Collins. A nice 1 minute stroll. When we arrived we were treated with excellent service.
We were taken up the elevator to change into our robes and led into a very cozy waiting area. The space is extremely clean and very well organized.
Now the massage. Omg amazing. I was given the choice of whether I wanted oil or cream. My masseuse was amazing. Mia had strong hands that released all the knots in my back. I actually fell asleep during the massage. It was 75 minutes of pure BLISS.
Overall great experience. If the deal is offered on Groupon again I am definitely purchasing it.

First off, rather disappointed with the valet at W. The entrance to Bliss is not inside the hotel, but around the corner on the Collins side. Now it would be excellent service if the valet people also escort me to the spa, like in Setai or a few other places. But at least the guy at W should tell us where to go, when I told him we’re heading to the spa, instead of letting us wander into the hotel.
Of course, that’s not Bliss’s fault. Once we walked in, service was excellent. The staff downstairs showed us to the elevator, and by the time we were on the second floor, the receptionist there had our robes and slippers in hand to show us to the lounge.
I was surprised that they have a spacious and comfortable lounge. The locker area has a big sofa, and there’s sauna and steam shower. There are also plenty of snack: cucumber and lemon water, tea, cheese and crackers, olives, caramel popcorn, brownies, … (yeah, that’s one full star in my book!) I can totally chill out here! Moreover, as Bliss has its own line of products, the vanity table has the best line up of skincare products of all the spas I visited: body butter, mouth wash, deodorant…
The facial itself: most definitely the best I have had in my life! I used a living social deal for the Triple Oxygen Mask. It includes a full extraction, and part of the procedure was a foamy oxygen mask, which was fun to feel the bubbles dancing on my face. The skilled esthetician let me know at every step what she was doing and when I had my mask on, she was busy massaging me: my scalp, my shoulder, my hands, and even my feet! Wow. And my skin definitely feels lovely for days after.
There is a public parking lot in front of the hotel. As the spa entrance isn’t even inside the hotel, next time I’d park in the lot. And definitely I’d come early to spend more time inside the lounge.
