Nirvana Spa

This is not your fluffy spa. Very traditional as far as Eastern european spa’s are. For the people who dont like the décor… Go get fluffed at the Standard. As a matter of fact the décor is part of the whole experiance. Its where people go who want to relax and not be bothered by house music and over priced everthing. Ive brought several people there and each one have retuned on their own. No nonsense Spa. The café is great for some great traditional russian turkish meals. Borscht is amazing as well as the cucumber soup.

Nirvana Spa is a great place to come and relax. I have been here several times and the staff is extremely polite and good at what they do. I usually go with Paola whom you can find on Thursdays during the day shift. I would recommend the Ultimate Bliss if you are looking for the ultimate relaxation.
In addition the Spa is only $ 30.00 and Free if you get a massage or treatment.
I highly recommend this spa to anyone looking for a day to relax.

I purchased a travelzoo voucher for a day at the spa for me, and a massage plus day at the spa for the BF. They were both around 50% off, making it a heck of a deal! This place isn’t super fancy, in fact the atmosphere is a little dangy (is that a word?)…but it all works. The Spa is in the basement of Howard Johnson and is dark with stone fixtures.
The spa has several different options — whirlpool jacuzzi, regular showers, power showers, cold water plunge, sauna, aromatherapy steam room, and two super steam rooms — one of which has the branch whipping thing for an extra fee. Plus you get access to the pool deck. Regular price is less than $ 30. I wasn’t super impressed with the staff and both times I went; I was hoping someone would be a bit more helpful in suggesting an order to visit the different rooms. Girls and Guys have separate locker rooms and they give you a key for a private locker. They have showers with soap/​shampoo and lotion which I highly suggest. Also, drink lots of water. They have a tiny concession bar with various bottled beverages and tea.
The BF LOVED his massage. It’s mandatory to tip $ 15. I always think adding gratuity is tacky but I realize it’s Miami. Whatev.
Parking is free in the adjacent Howard Johnson building.
If you’re looking for a no frills way to spend a relaxing/​rejuvenating couple of hours, check it out!

I’ve been here a few times for an 1−½ hour massage which cost $ 138.00. The massages are good and refreshing however the décor and atmosphere is odd and badly thought out. A lot of older Russians go to this spa and always stare at me; I assume because I don’t look like them… The place definitely could use a major revamp, but, if you only care about the results and not where you are this is the place for you.

I agree with Nishy P. This place looks like Ernest Borgnine and an Elton John impersonator formed a design firm and this was their launch project. I found myself looking around thinking, «wtf?»
Good massage but hard to concentrate.
Boom!

Writing this review to help the place out. The staff and the masseuses were fantastic. One of the best massages that I’ve ever had.
The place itself is a whole other story. The décor is completely bizarre… bad design and not very well-​thought-​out. It’s old, dark, and feels dirty. In need of a major gutting and redo.
If you’re looking for a superb massage, go there but don’t look around too much.

When I lived in Miami, this was the spa to go to. It’s a very nice atmosphere and the day pass is less than $ 30 for a full day of sauna, steam rooms, pools, cold plunge, showers and the beach. The massage service was excellent. We also went as a group for a friend’s birthday and it was perfect!

I love this spa i usually go for my birthday… You get a whole day of relaxation for a good price. They have a great HOT jacuzzi 4 different steam rooms. You can use the hotels pool. The beach is right behind the pool. And of course you can get these wonderful massages at a good price… Good to go with some friends to have a relaxing day at the spa!

This is my favorite place to go to really truly relax, cleanse, refresh, and feel like a brand-​spanking new person upon coming out, Yes, its that good. What is this magic place? It’s called a sauna, and Nirvana happens to not just have offer 1, but 3 different kinds. the Turkish sauna is humid, the Finnish sauna is very hot, and the Russian Sauna is… welll…very hot and humid. Optionally you may receive a «Platza» treatment where a Russian concierge will slap you down with oak tree branches to cleanse your skin of any impurities. Sip a cup of russian hot tea, take a jacuzzi bubble bath, and you are still not half-​way through, because you still have visit the steam room, the outdoor pool and jacuzzi, and take a cool-​down stroll on the ocean. Yes, Nirvana comes with direct beach access. it is especially romantic at full-​moon nights when the light of the moon reflects in the ocean… oh did I mention that you will not only feel like a new-​born baby after, but your skin will look and feel softer and more gorgeous than ever?
This place is true Nirvana!

This place is pretty awesome. it has a bunch of different types of steam rooms, saunas, and hot tubs. In addition it’s on the beach. I tend to only go when i am really hungover and need some private time to hang out and recover. It has a turkish vibe inside the spa itself, and people keep to themselves. Don’t forget sandals though, the ground can get nasty at times.

I visited this spa with my hubby for a relaxing afternoon. We bought a package that included 40 minutes in the alpha massage capsule… it was the first time I was inside one of those space looking machines… but to be honest… it was quite relaxing. (U must not be afraid of being in tight spaces). After wards we had a couple’s bliss massage… ohhhhh lorddd… that was great… God bless the hands of my masseuse, she was amazing!
Since we bought a package, we were able to also use the saunas, steam rooms and had access to the beach. It was definitely a day we both enjoyed and felt relaxed and pampered!
