DESUAR Monterey Spa - Monterey, California

Great experience! The location was centrally located and the spa itself was very clean and calming. The massage therapists, Uni and Alma, were amazing at targeting problem areas and getting out tough knots! Make sure to request them! The spa also made sure to provide accommodations.

Check in/out was a bit choppy, but otherwise no complaints!

The staff here were very welcoming and kind. I was a little nervous for my treatment, but Lysset was really friendly and helped me feel at ease. The facility is well maintained and has a locker area and comfortable sitting room. They offer an array of different services that I haven’t seen other locations offer. Excited to try them out soon.

Had the worst massage of my life here. I am 28 years old and have been a dancer my whole life and have had many deep tissue massages, but I have never had someone repeatedly massage my bones and ignore my muscles completely. I wanted to call it off and ask her to stop, but my husband was next to me getting a massage too and I didn't want to ruin his experience in case it was better than mine. I can't remember the gals name, but she was a younger, white woman. She was nice and friendly, but I have a hard time believing she is a licensed massage therapist. I tried to let her do her thing, but eventually I felt like I might get injured by the way she was pulling on my ligaments and pressing into my bones. I kept waiting for her to move to the muscular area one would expect, but it rarely happened. For example, while she was working on my lower legs, she repeatedly massaged the ball of my ankle to the point where it hurt, and she never dug into my calf muscle or the arch of my foot at all. I told her twice to focus more on the muscles, but she did not, and instead just lightly went over my bones again. She also pressed really hard into my tail bone and it was sensitive to touch afterwards. I also noticed that she would do something on one side of my body, but then do something completely different on the other side. I genuinely felt like I needed a massage for my massage because I left in more pain and not at all relaxed. I wanted to say something to the receptionist about it, but the massage gal was standing there while we were checking out and I felt bad telling her how awful it was to her face, so I called back later. I was told by the receptionist that they would look into it and call me back, but I have not heard from anyone. I tried to make this right with them first before taking my reviews to other platforms.

I had a 50-minute Swedish massage and Alma did such an amazing job. She got so many knots out of my back and shoulders, great arm/hand and leg/foot massage. Really awesome full body experience! Plus I got a 15% off coupon from staying at Casa Munras.

Highly recommend!

Hubby and I went here for a couples massage and will be back for sure. I love that they offer robes and have a beautiful locker room to put all your stuff in. Atmosphere was amazing. Staff was friendly. We both loved our masseuses.

Sav H

I had an exfoliation, massage, and facial with the microdermabrasion add-on and everything was wonderful. I may not recall the names accurately but I believe Angie did my massage and Adrianna did my facial. The facility as a whole is very clean and relaxing, the staff was all very sweet and professional. Great experience overall.

Lauren Nichols

Anthony gave the best message I've ever had! 10/10. Everyone at the spa was friendly and helpful. Everything was clean- the bathroom/showers were especially great to use after the massage. Overall great experience, would go again!

First time getting a facial at DeSuar, and I absolutely loved the place! All the staff were respectful, accommodating and so lovely. My aesthetician, Lysset was incredible, she was so sweet and knowledgeable in answering questions about products/ skin concerns, explaining the benefits of certain ingredients etc. She held a very calming energy about her, which put me in such a relaxed state. Definitely planning to return!
