I was on the Escape in July with my mom and sister and we weren't sure about the Thermal Spa either. Once we boarded, we decided to check it out and got a tour. We were told it would be $200 for the week and that they limited the number of people that were allowed to book it --- to keep it from being over crowded. It was one of the best things we did on the ship!
Each morning we started the day with a workout in the gym which was right outside the Spa. So from the gym, we went into the Spa and changed into a swimsuit - they provided towels and robes. In the Spa, we had a choice of icey orange water or a variety of hot teas - and oranges to eat.
The travertine mosaic lounge chairs were heated and positioned all around the front of the ship with great views out the floor to ceiling windows - and they had oil diffusers going with various scents each day. We decided to stay here as we left the Port of Miami. It was calm, quiet and so serene. A wonderful start to our cruise!
We enjoyed the large therapy pool with waterfall to soothe our back and shoulder muscles, the hydro jets and bubble pool along with the hot tub! Then we made the rounds going from the Saunas, to the Steam room with menthol aroma, to the Salt bath with frankincense, to the snow room! (brrrr) It was a great relaxing way to truly unwind and begin our day. Even on the sea days, it was never very crowded or loud.
I would highly recommend it and am dreaming about the days I will return to this blissful place!
