Reflections The Spa

It’s hard to find a spa in South Lake Tahoe where you can get pampered with attentive service. This isn’t your spa you’d get at a high end hotel, but it’s close. It’s certainly the perfect way to spend a few hours before wrapping up your trip or between checking out of your room and heading back home.
Even better they have a package catered to men called the Alpha Male that I’ve done twice and it’s worth every moment and dollar. Just relax, let go and enjoy swimming in Lake You.
The facilities were clean and relaxing. They always made sure my cucumber or lemon water was refilled and my towels were clean. Even a spot in the sauna all layer out for me with an ice chest and cold towel. Just perfect! The lounge room was comfortable and had a sports game on the TV so you couldn’t miss the game or webcam of the Sierra Mountains.
The massage and facial were outstanding and the personal were knowledgeable if you have any questions or concerns.

I had an amazing time at this spa. All of the employees are very nice and accommodating. I had Monica as my massage therapist, and I highly recommend her and this establishment!

This was the ultimate spa experience. The spa attendant was on it and I had time to sit in the dry spa and tub before my facial and massage. It was so relaxing and awesome.

In short: A high-​quality feeling day spa atmosphere and hot tub to relax in while waiting for your friends in the casino, but expensive for the quality of services.
Should you try it? Yes, but only if I’m in the area, and only for access to the hot tub or maybe try a deep tissue massage, and only if I have extra $$$. (Swedish massage was ehhhh).
Ambience: Lovely and upscale looking. It was quiet and I loved the dimmed relaxation room.
Service: Everyone was nice, and the attendant was helpful but a little bit overbearing. I wasn’t too fond of my Swedish massage, as she didn’t do any targeted work at all. I didn’t expect her to go deep (like a deep tissue) but I always expect my masseuse to work out the kinks in my muscles at least a little bit. This massage was just way too generic.
Location: Excellent, easy access location. Perfect while you wait for friends in the casino if gambling isn’t your thing.
3 Key Tips:
1) You can get a discount if you have a diamond/​7stars card.
2) Bring a bathing suit for the hot tub (or you can jump in without clothes, no big deal)
3) Be sure to shower before getting in the hot tub after a massage.

Went to the Reflections Spa inside the hotel and it was amazing. My deep tissue massage was incredible and the service was great! Very clean and organized. It was a pleasure.

I had the best experience at this spa. They were quick to let me change into a robe and slippers and showed me the steam room, sauna, and jacuzzi. I was so relaxed in the lounge before my treatment. If you get to choose your massage therapist please ask for NIKKI! She was amazing, perfect pressure, light conversation in the beginning, but quiet during the service. She was wonderful! I will definitely be back.

I live in Elk Grove CA and I am a massage Therapist and I know there are no good massage spas out here. My husband and I stayed at the Harrahs for our 1 year anniversary and we had a couples massage here at Reflections the Spa. Before your massages you get to use the spa. The spa has staff that take very good care of you. I think the lady who helped me was Kristine. She was amazing! The spa has a nice Hot tub, dry heat sauna, a steam room, showers and bathrooms. It was very nice and relaxing! Our couples massages were very nice as well. We were there to have a good time and we did.

This was my second trip this year! Both of which I had the 80 min couples massage. Although a bit pricey, I found the services and attendants to be helpful but not overwhelmingly helpful, like some of the other reviews have stated.
I have also been to some of the best spas around the country (including the spa at the venetian in lv) and although this doesn’t exactly compare in size, it offers a lot of the basic and middle tier services that I enjoy at most nice spas.
Overall, a great visit. I will go back.
Don’t forget to use your diamond/​7stars card for a 15% discount!

As many times as I’ve been to Tahoe and stayed at Harrah’s this is the first time I took advantage of the spa. I’m so glad I did. The spa itself was very clean and fully stocked. They have a sauna, hot tub, full locker room stocked with everything you would need to get ready and freshen up. I had no idea you could show up early to enjoy the amenities but now I know for next time!
Elaine did a great job. It was a very relaxing message, she took the time to work out all my stubborn knots =) They offer an additional discount for diamond members too! Gotta love that. Next time i head to Tahoe a visit to the day spa is going to be a must.

I was surprised by how nice the facilities were at this spa! I went with a friend and called ahead to confirm that there would be a place for us to hang out before and after our treatments. They have a jacuzzi, steam room, and sauna. An attendant was very helpful in moving us along from each facility to the next, but I would have felt comfortable telling her we’d like to stay in any of the spots. She brought us tea and water and made sure we were comfortable.
After using those facilities, we were offered a yummy smelling scrub to use in the shower before our services. I wouldn’t say the spa is super fancy like a spa in a big Las Vegas hotel, but it was certainly updated and well maintained.
The services were great, too — we both had massages and express facials. I was a little annoyed at the attempt to upsell me during the facial, but once I said I was not interested, she dropped it. They used Dermalogica products for the facial and the treatment rooms were nice, with heated tables to lie on and modern decorations.
The only reasons I didn’t give it five stars are (1) the area for getting ready was a little outdated looking, with only one blow dryer and lower quality hair care products and (2) the tipping system was strange — you have to make sure to separately tip the attendant and the massage therapist by filling out two little boxes on the check out form. That wasn’t explained to me, so I didn’t tip the attendant and felt guilty!
We have already planned a return trip with more girlfriends!

Monica was great with wonderful technique. She is very kind and sensitive. Best massage that I’ve ever had, that huge coming from a massage therapist, myself. The facilities were serene. Great for some R and R.

Wow! What an experience. My cousin and I went to this spa today. While we’ve visited numerous Vegas spas, I had the best massage I can remember. My masseuse’s name was Patti and she was incredible with the perfect amount of pressure and wonderful technique. It was the most relaxing massage I’ve ever had. I just cannot say enough.
This spa is not huge but it is cozy and it was nice that it wasn’t overly crowded. I even added in a last minute facial with Carol. I appreciated how she took the time to explain what she would be doing for my skin and offer some tips for my own skincare.
Kristin and the other attendants were very attentive and made sure we were well hydrated while we took our time and enjoyed the jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, and showers.
I would be very glad to visit this spa again.

Not even worth one star. Over priced was expected so no complaint there. The services were less than mediocre and for how much you are spending the amenities are terrible. When finished, I went to get ready– to find out they offer one blow dryer and one straightener for 8 areas. Plus, they are worth no more than $ 15– something you could purchase from a convenient store when you would think, if your spending hundreds of dollars for their services they would at least have quality amenities. My massage started 20 minutes after my appointment and the lady talked the ENTIRE time. Not professional or up to par for how much you spend for a relaxing day.

Can’t believe I forgot to write a review for my awful spa experience here! Anyway, here it is…
Came here for a massage and facial. Both were just mediocre and over priced, but I knew the over-​priced bit going into it, so no one to blame but myself. But here is the kicker…
The massage ended 15 minutes early. When I asked about it, they said since I got my hands and feet massaged during the ‘massage’ portion, they weren’t going to do it again during the facial. OK… but I actually paid for a massage (full price) and facial (full price), so what gives? When I asked to speak to the manager, they told me to complain downstairs at the lobby.
So I went down to the lobby and asked to speak to someone, they told me to fill out a comment card. And I did. And never heard back.
Not only did they lose me as a customer at the spa, but they also lost me as a customer at the casino.

I bought a package for my wife and she loved every minute of her massage! They allowed her to use the steam room, hot tub, shower, the whole nine with her package! They even booked her a nail appointment down below directly after her treatment.
When she came back, she looked so relaxed and she said it was an awesome experience there!
Don’t hesitate, just go!
BTW fellas! Great gift for the wife to give while you hit the slopes! ;)

Had a great experience here. The spa facility is nice and the service was super. Krista was my attendant and she was very attentive. My massuesse was great too. They have a roman bath, wet sauna and dry sauna. Showers including a scrub — as part of the treatment.
This is a nice facility and I can’t wait to return. The appointment was easy to get. Friendly and accomodating.

We were in S. Lake Tahoe for a family reunion so who am I to turn down a spa day with the aunties, right? :) Ok, so the spa is not bad but it could be better. Prices are usually what you would see at any spa on vacation.
I tried the enzymatic sea mud wrap. It felt more like a parafin dip then a mud wrap.
Pros: same day appointments
staff is friendly
my aunties loved their massages
Cons: no showers in the treatment rooms to srub off mud
10min power outage when we first arrived
limited shower stalls and no staff to clean the stalls after use

I am SOOOO relaxed right now, I could fall asleep! I literally just got back from an amazing massage.
So after 3 days of snowboarding, it was time to relax my muscles! The prices in South Lake Tahoe for massages typically run around $ 80 for an hour. Well, Reflections is currently having a special — $ 89 for a 50 min Swedish Massage. It is typically $ 125! Another perk is that is located in Harrah’s — we are currently staying in Harvey’s which is connected to Harrah’s.
The bf and I were able to get an appointment the very same day for the same time. They have separate men’s and women’s changing area. They give you a locker with key, robe, and slippers (they even ask for your size!) There is even an attendant who will get you whatever you need — water, towels, etc. She was attentive but still gave me the right amount of space so I could enjoy myself.
My massage therapist’s name was Carol. She applied the perfect amount of pressure. However… when she massaged my arm, she would plop on the side of the table which startled me. She was a little rough when putting my arm back under the blanket. Oh well… she definitely put me in a daze. Loved it!
Afterwards, I hung out in the women’s area which has a jacuzzi and sauna. I took 2 showers! Yes, I said it — 2! One after my massage so I could rest in the jacuzzi and after I got in to the sauna. I got to blow dry my hair, brush it with a sterilized brush, straighten my hair with straightener, apply face moisturizer and body lotion, AND applied a spray deodarant. They also have hair spray and mousse. Wow! I was in there for another good hour.
While I was in the women’s area, the attendant would periodically check on me. She helped me out by passing messages to the bf and told him I would be taking my time in the women’s area. I really appreciated that.
When I was finally done, I met the bf out in the reception area. He had a pleasant experience as well but unfortunately, his massage therapist talked to him the entire time!!! Oh no!!! I felt so bad… I told him he should’ve just told her he enjoyed his massages in silence but he doesn’t normally get massages. Soooo… word of advice — if you get a massage therapist named Jenna, just tell her to hush up! You should tell any massage therapist for that matter.

Had a great massage, but strange locker room experience. The attendant was too attendant; in fact, she was annoying and ruined my relaxation time. She barged into the sauna, steam room, hot tub, wherever I was, every 5 minutes – NOT an exaggeration – asking if I wanted to move on to a different ammenity. LEAVE ME ALONE!!! Plus, she seemed troubled that I did not want to follow the pattern she had established: first you must use the steam room, then the sauna, then the hot tub, then you shower. When I went back and forth between the ammenities, she acted like I was breaking the rules or something. Other than my mom, there was no one else using the facilities, so I dont know what the problem or rush was. Plus, she wanted to help me disrobe and put a towel around me before going into the steam room, which was just plain weird.
As for the facilities, they are run down. The hot tub is labled a «roman bath,» but it is actually a small acrylic tub with mildewy grout that has been regrouted several times instead of properly cleaned. There is nothing spa-​like about it, more like a rehab center for oldsters.
Another major annoyance was the gross misinformation the manager gave us, which I think was on purpose. When we booked our appointments, in person, a massage therapist was about to hand out on the casino floor cards for 20% off her massage services. When we asked for one, we were initially denied, saying that we had already booked our services. Then we asked for the coupon for a future massage. The manager said, sure, and gave us the coupon, but when we called later that day to book a massage, they said the therapist would be out the rest of the time we were there. That’s total BS. I would not go back. Too bad, because the massage was excellent.

Based on my one and only spa experience to date, I give them 4 stars.
My husband’s boss’s wife, took me and one of my friends here the morning of my wedding last year. I had never been to a spa before so I wasn’t really sure what to expect.
I was told that I had an appointment with Pierre… Pierre? Okay… um…I got a little uncomfortable at the thought of another man rubbing me down the morning I was to say my marital vows so… I opted to trade my friend for the lady she was assigned to.
That was a wee little mistake apparently. I don’t remember her name but I know that she talked… and talked… and talked… and talked some more. Now like I said, it was my first spa experience so I’m not sure the proper protocol but… aren’t you supposed to be relaxed and silent?
Don’t get me wrong, I am a really friendly person so when she talked to me, I talked back… but the more I thought of it after I left… this cost $ 165??? At least I didn’t pay for it.
Besides her talking, she could have massaged a little deeper… it left something to be desired.
After the massage and body wrap, I sat in a sauna for several minutes, drank lots of ice cold lemon water, and took one of the most refreshing showers of my life. I felt energized for the busy, stressful day ahead.
When I met up with my friend and husbands bosses wife after the massages… I was told Pierre was FABULOUS! And pushing 80-years-old…guess I should have gone with Pierre. Who knew?
