Is there a minimum age for treatments?
Guests of The Spa and Fitness Center must be at least 18 years of age. Minors aged 14 - 17 may receive facial or massage services under the following conditions: a parent or guardian must be in the treatment room, the child needs to be wearing a bathing suit, and the therapist needs to be the same gender as the child. Salon services are available for guests of all ages. A variety of children's activities are available through the resort's Ritz Kids program while overnight guests in The Spa are enjoying their services.
What if I am late for my appointment?
Arriving late will simply limit the time for your treatment, thus lessening its effectiveness and your pleasure. Your treatment will end on time so that the next guest will not be delayed. The full value of your treatment will be applied.
What is the cancellation policy?
If you must reschedule or cancel your appointment, please notify us six (6) hours before your scheduled appointment to avoid being charged the full service fee. Cancellations of packages or private parties require a 24-hour notice. A credit card number is required at the time you book your treatments.
What about payment for Spa services?
We accept all major credit cards and traveler's checks. You may also charge Spa services to your hotel bill. For your convenience, payment is also accepted prior to your treatments, upon request.
What about gratuities?
With your permission, a 20% service charge will be added for each spa service you receive. If services were satisfactory, please feel free to leave additional gratuity which will be distributed to the Spa staff who served you during your visit.
What if I have special health considerations?
Please notify our Spa Reservation Department before booking your treatments if you have high blood pressure, allergies, any other physical ailments or disabilities, or if you are pregnant. If you have any concern at all, please let us know. If at any time during your services you experience discomfort, please alert your therapist immediately.
What if I am pregnant?
While there are a few services that should be avoided during pregnancy, there are many beneficial treatments that can be enjoyed. Please notify our Spa Desk Agents if you are pregnant when you make your appointments so that they can offer guidance.
