Qua Spa and Baths

It's been two weeks since I indulged in a spa day at Qua Spa and Baths at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, but the pampering effects have lingered since. It was my first time visiting a spa, so it was quite an experience to spend a day lounging around in a bathrobe and being spoiled.

The spa is frequented by many celebrities who pass through Sin City, such as Eva Longoria and others. 

Qua is located on the "M" floor of Caesar's Palace, across the hall from top-tier restaurant Guy Savoy. The entrance is like walking into the mouth of a softly lit stone cave, with gorgeous foliage and a cascading waterfall along the wall behind the desk. 

It was quiet in the spa area, even though there were plenty of guests relaxing in the mineral Roman Bath and in the whirlpool. There are a number of saunas to choose from after you have had your treatment, such as an herbal sauna, a hot stone room, and Qua's newest addition, the Arctic sauna. There is a vanity room complete with products and appliances guests may use to get ready after their stay, and a shower room full of Qua's herbal hair and body cleansers. The artisans and the employees are wonderful and make you feel right at home.

I had one of their signature 80 minute facials done, complete with a diamond-tip microdermabrasion, arm and leg paraffin wax, and laser anti-aging light treatment. I also had an eye treatment that rejuvenated my tired eyes from staying up all night in the city that never sleeps. It made quiet a difference right away!

I have always had problem combination skin and have used countless medications and creams to remedy it. After my facial, I feel like I have a brand new, softer complexion. The minerals in the Roman Bath soothed my skin and left me feeling silky smooth.

When I return to Vegas, I will for sure dedicate another day to relax at Qua Spa and Baths.
