Very disappointing Pedicures. The spa is beautiful. The Pedicures were a lot like a walk in strip mall pedicure but a lot more expensive. Go to the Phoenician, that pedicure is one of the best I've had.

Impeccable service. Every staff member was remarkably attentive, gracious, and kind. The spa services were solid. The extra amenities - sauna, spa, pool, steam - are all lovely. We had a delicious lunch out by the fireplace (even Scottsdale is chilly outside in January!). I would definitely return here and choose this spa over others in the Scottsdale area.

Such a lovely spa. The rain shower is the best. The outdoor pools and hot tubs were incredible. This place is very serene and I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. The massage was very relaxing as well.

I've been to Spa Avania several times and each time I have a fabulous, relaxing spa experience. The gym is always clean. The outdoor showers are wonderful. Poolside service is excellent, Amir (I believe) is very attentive to check in on food/drinks while being thoughtful to allow guests to relax. And of course, the massage... it's amazing.

Pro: cute set up, food decent, a nice worker from Chicago had excellent customer service which helped me somewhat enjoy my time there. He helped me as I was outside enjoying the fire place which I do think is a good touch and I enjoyed. Cons: the outside women's mineral jacuzzi, not the 100 & something degrees I was told upon walk through (it was more of lukewarm to me). Steam room a joke I exited within 2/3 minutes. This steamer just did not give the same effects, no real moisture I felt I was just sitting in dry air. Sorry its a bit hard to explain. The co-ed pool was not warm enough for my liking either. My massage therapist also came late to get my massage started which made us run a bit behind but then we still finished right at the 60 minute mark. If you come late & I have to walk up and down to are room time should be added. Massage just ok & while In the massage room dressing I did not like I could see out of the sheer part of the blinds because I was unsure were others able to see in. Lastly when leaving there were no small towels. I was off to a dinner after but had nothing to wash my body with, I did bring my own toothbrush etc but I just have never been to a spa that did not have small towels to wash off with but has everything else to get ready. Most even have small towels near there steam room because they are usually hot but as I mentioned above this steam room seem to function differently then most and not in a good way to me. I'd like to note apart from the spa: the person that was working valet when I pulled up, also lacked customer service Overall the day was ok but I don't believe I will be returning

Nearly everything was perfect. Incredible massage by Colleen, relaxing amenities, kind staff. Just wish there were a few gf snack options and they gave me wrong cocktail. But overall a great experience.

I recently had a 90-minute deep tissue massage with Monica, and unfortunately, I left feeling somewhat disappointed. Despite specifically requesting attention to my neck, shoulders, and lower back, I found that the massage felt more like a Swedish massage rather than a deep tissue one. It seemed as if Monica may have lacked experience in targeting those specific areas effectively. As someone who has had numerous deep tissue massages in the past, I didn’t feel that she was able to locate and address my muscle tension properly. It’s possible that further training and experience could improve her skills.

We started off our long weekend in AZ with a couples massage and some time to use the spa amenities. My only regret is that we should have done this AFTER we did a ton of hiking...but, all good. The facilities are really nice. I found the "pre massage waiting area" very relaxing and enjoyed the cup of tea I made myself to accompany the snacks they had out.The massage itself was an hour but it went by in what felt like 20 minutes. Very relaxing, just the right amount of pressure.After the massage I made use of the hot tub and plunge pool, and then we spent some time by the mineral pool and ordered drinks and lunch. Good food, not exorbitantly priced, came out quickly.I ended the experience with a shower with no less than 8 different shower heads, all with great pressure. My absolute favorite part of the whole day.All in was $580, which included both massages, food, drinks, and tips. Not inexpensive by any means, but I would definitley come back.

We had a lovely afternoon at Spa Avania. The spa is located at the Hyatt in Gainey Ranch. They have a free self-parking lot. The spa is a little dated, but they make up for that with their service. We purchased the massage deal on Groupon for $165 each. We were able to opt in for the couples suite with no up charge, which is always a plus. Our masseuses did a fantastic job with our 60 minute Swedish massages. Dawn was definitely a skilled masseuse and removed all the tension in my shoulders.The pool area was crowded, but Kami did an awesome job with regulating our drink & food requests. We ended up splitting the chicken pesto panini. After that we decided to order some more food. I had the shrimp tacos & Fiance' had the burger. Both were tasty! We had a fantastic time at Spa Avania. My only critique would be the women's hot tub needs a good cleaning. I didn't take a dip in there for that very reason. It could be an old tub that needs resurfacing. However, the cold plunge, steam room & other amenities were clean & working just fine.
