sweets2323 Posted September 1, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I received a 10% off promo by email. This is my first 8 day cruise and I am not sure about different paid things I may want to do or should do. I think a spa treatments would be nice. Is it worth it? When do you purchase spa treatments? Is it better to purchase once I am on the ship day 3 or 4? I will be on the Vista. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A&Jfamily Posted September 1, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I don't do spa treatments on the ship any more. They are just too over priced. A 60 min massage is like $95 and I can get one at home for $50-55. If you are going to do it, they often run "sales" once on board for unpopular times - when the ship is in port.

riclop Posted September 2, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 2, 2017 During port days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaShelle2 Posted September 2, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Which ports are you visiting and what spa treatments are you interested in? Many things like a beach massage or pedicure are cheaper in port. For example a beach massage is only $20 In Progreso or Costa Maya, and $100 or more on the ship.

tarabonnie Posted September 2, 2017 #5 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I am also going on an 8 day cruise on the Vista and received a promotion. I have enjoyed the spa treatments I have bought on previous cruises and although you do pay a premium I feel like they have been worth the money. They do offer great deals, especially if you bundle services so I think I'm going to wait until I'm onboard. Prices are cheaper on port days whenever you book.

nhsails Posted September 2, 2017 #7 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Got an offer today for December cruise 15% off spa treatments. Price is same as any resort, actually less than what I paid in July at a 4-day getaway. While they often discount on ship, items and time frames are often limited.

naxer Posted September 2, 2017 #8 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I booked a message with the 15% promotion, with a port day discount, and paid for it with a discounted gift card. It was worth it to me. The promotions they run on the ship never seem to be the type of message I want, or they're usually bundled with things I want even less.

firemanbobswife Posted September 2, 2017 #9 Share Posted September 2, 2017 The 15% off is cheaper than the port day special for the facial I just got last week on Conquest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweets2323 Posted September 2, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I see, so here may be better promotions on port days but may be a massage that is less desired. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firemanbobswife Posted September 2, 2017 #11 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I see, so here may be better promotions on port days but may be a massage that is less desired. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Look at it this way. If there's something you know you want, go ahead and take the 15% off now. There's no guarantee the treatment you want will be a port special and in my case even though it was, the 15% off is still a better deal. They don't just discount the whole menu on port days. It was between a facial and one other thing. Take the guaranteed savings now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ate going on an 8 day Vista cruise as well and we got the week-long spa pass, I think it was $229 for both of us and includes as many times to go as we wish. Very often we go 2 or 3 times in a day. It includes a thalasso therapy pool/ hot tub ,steam rooms, heated loungers and relaxation rooms with hot tea and fruit sometimes. You'll thank me later for this information :) Here's a video from YouTube that shows the vista spa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really relaxing I wear a bathing suit with t shirt and flip flops and my wife wears a bathing suit with a little dress. They have towels so you need nothing. It should be on your home screen if you log on and look at your booking or under spa treatments. We get this on every ship that has cloud 9 spa and vista seems a bit smaller but still will be wonderful. We have anytime dining and we sometimes go around 6pm and are the only ones in the whole spa.

Enjoy Kind of hard to relax in the loungers with the hot tub right there per my friend. If you're used to the other Cloud 9 Spas I think you might be a little disappointed. But all you can do is check it out. Don't understand why they don't have a thalasso pool in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had one person in our party that went and said compared to the Breeze it was not good. The breeze spa is really awesome but I've looked at videos and I think it will great for us. We really love all the steam rooms especially so the loss of the thalasso pool being replaced by a hot tub is no biggie for us. We go at odd times so it's usually very quiet when we go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said it wasn't worth it and was glad he switched from a Spa Balcony to a Havana Aft Wrap. He didn't spend hardly any time in the Spa with the pass he bought. Havana was where it was at.
