Had a great weekend at the St Regis Hotel and had the luxury of going to this spa. The women's locker room and sauna/steam/whirlpool area was on the smaller size but overall very pleasant. Only did a 1 hour massage and it was great. Ate at the small cafe near the workout facilities and the food was really good. I wish I would have had time to take more advantage of the workout room, golf and outdoor pools but time did not allow. I would certainly return the next time I am back in So Cal.

This is one of my favorite spas - the location is gorgeous and the staff so friendly. I could have spent the whole day taking advantage of the facilities, especially the steam room and the private spa pool. My therapist was excellent, and I particularly enjoyed the post-treatment glass of wine!

I spent a day at Spa Gaucin recently and had the most amazing time!! I took one of the yoga classes and loved the instuctor. Then I spent some time in the steam room and hot tub before my massage. I loved my couples massage with my husband, we got to spend time together in the bath tub with wine and grapes. It was so romantic!! I would love to visit again!!
