Arrive 20–30 minutes before your scheduled appointment to use lockers, change and enjoy the relaxation areas. The spa may require a credit card on file for incidentals or late cancellation fees—ask when you book.
If you’re staying at the resort, note room names when planning logistics (examples: Room, 1 King Bed; Room, 2 Queen Beds; Room, Garden View). The resort’s daily mandatory resort fee covers Wi‑Fi, fitness access and scheduled shuttles, but not spa services or SoundWaves admission.
- Bring photo ID and the card used at booking if requested
- Confirm cancellation and gratuity policies when you book
- Combine a spa visit with a meal at on-site venues like Ravello or Old Hickory Steakhouse — reservations recommended
