About Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa

Conveniently located within Anaheim's Disneyland, Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa is a AAA Four Diamond-awarded resort in the architectural style of the 20th century Arts and Crafts era. A lobby with a 75-foot-high ceiling, a grand fireplace, and arching beams welcomes guests to the 745-room hotel.

The Grand Californian offers its own private entrance to the adjacent California Adventure Park, and Disneyland Park and Downtown Disney are within easy walking distance. There are two swimming pools, a fitness facility, and business center available for guest use, while restaurant options range from fine dining to breakfast buffets with Disney characters.

Those wanting to escape the theme park excitement for a while can retreat to Mandara Spa, where they can indulge in an array of signature Balinese-inspired treatments. If Disney appeals to the child within you, then come to Mandara Spa to care for the adult in you.

Rooms & Dining

The hotel's 745 guest accommodations reflect a 20th-century American Craftsman design aesthetic, with rich woods, mission-style furnishings, and nature-inspired colors; two suites evoke the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright. All rooms come with king- or queen-size beds (bunk beds are also available), high-speed Internet access, plush robes, turndown service, and the Disney television channel, and many feature balconies. Concierge-level accommodations offer additional amenities such as priority check-in, access to an exclusive lounge, DVD players, and complimentary movies.

Dining options include the elegant Napa Rose, where guests can enjoy seasonal menus that showcase fresh ingredients indigenous to the region paired with a tasting from the restaurant's collection of California vintages. Open all day, the Storytellers Café serves home-style American specialties in a whimsical setting, and those traveling with the little ones can take advantage of the café's breakfast buffet, hosted by Disney character favorites Chip 'n Dale. For a quick bite, the poolside White Water Snacks offers sandwiches, pizzas, salads, and more. Both the Napa Rose Lounge, which offers regional wines, and the inviting, family-friendly Hearthstone Lounge share scenic theme park views.

I had a mini spa package and a Full Fire and Ice Pedicure here. Both were outstanding. The staff was friendly, the technichians were outstanding and I was very pleased with my entire visit. I am going again at the end of the month for the same package deal and adding a pedicure and manicure. It is the best spa experience I have had to date. Love it.

My Mom, Grandma and I visited this spa the day before I was getting married at the Disneyland Hotel. We figured it was worth spending the extra money to get pampered before the big day. My Mom and I got acrylic nails which were the worst job I have ever seen. I had to go back to morning of my wedding to get them fixed it was so bad. The spa is nice but they obviouslly don't employ people who specilize in what they are being paid to do. We could of gone to a regular nail salon and paid a 1/4 of the price.

I went to Mandara Spa at the Grand Californian Hotel for a facial and massage. It was excellent!! The hotel is easy to find and has valet parking, which the spa will validate for you. The grounds of the hotel are beautiful and the spa is a short walk from the valet area. Once I arrived, I was greeted courteously and immediately by Marco at the front desk as well as Ernest Sanchez, the Spa Director. I was led to an area where I could change into a robe and slippers, and given a locker for my personal items.I waited for my aestitician in the waiting area, which was quiet and peaceful, with aromatherapy and calming music, and completely private. Water with lemons and limes, decaf iced tea, and fruit were provided.It was a very short wait. Melissa, my aestitician came to get me. I was very pleased with the facial and her demeanor was excellent. My skin is still soft, smooth, and hydrated a couple days later.Next, it was time for my massage. Monique worked on me (Balinese massage) and it was excellent. I still feel relaxed two days later.After my facial and massage, I sat in the steam room for several minutes and alternated with the sauna. The aromatherapy on my back from the massage was amazing!!

This was my first time ever going to a spa, I will never forget this experience. I ended up getting a 1 hour facial for a very affordable price might I add. I also signed up for the membership program. So trust me ladies if you want to have a great experience go to Skin Essentials. This is such a perfect little mommy escape!
