Plan Some "Me" Time
During Your Cruise
Mandara Spa
Revive, refresh and recharge in Norwegian Bliss's remarkable spa. Start with a hot-stone massage, one of over 50 specialty treatments offered by well-trained massage therapists. Just simply inhale, exhale and be well.
Shown here is the couples massage spa treatment room on Norwegian Bliss. We recommend making your Mandara Spa reservations in advance or on embarkation day for best selection of days and times.
The spa offers discounted rates for multiple treatments or on port days. Since our sea days would be busy, due to our conference meetings, we booked a couples massage for Wednesday afternoon when we would be in Mazatlan. Due to Hurricane Willa altering our schedule, we needed to change our reservation to Friday when we were in Ensenada. The only available time for the couples massage was 8 AM, so we selected that time.
The Thermal Suite
The Thermal Suite is a passage toward ultimate relaxation. Based on the concept of Turkish baths, where friends and family spent the day relaxing, the heat and cleansing therapies of our Thermal Suite experience include heated ceramic lounge chairs, a Thalasso Therapy Pool, hot tubs, steam room, sauna, and tropical rain showers. Different herbal steam and sauna grottos cleanse the body with gentle heat while a therapeutic heated-water pool bubbling effect will wash away stiff and sore joints. Take a dip in the Vitality Pool or enjoy a warm waterfall cascading onto your shoulders. Heated chaise lounges and tropical shower features make this both a relaxing and cleansing experience. A Salt Room is available on Bliss, Breakaway, Getaway and Escape.
The Spa Experience
Your spa experience begins with arriving 15 minutes early to complete some paper work. The questionnaire helps the therapist focus on what your desired outcomes are from the session.
There are oranges, infused water, and other refreshments available in the relaxation area. Your therapist meets you in the area and escorts you to the treatment room.
After briefly going over your paperwork, they leave you to get ready for your massage. A few minutes later you are lying on the table waiting for your heavenly treatment to begin.
At the end of your treatment, they'll leave you to get dressed and then bring you some water and go over some follow up treatment plans. You aren't under any obligation to purchase the products they suggest, but if you do, they will be added to your room charge along with the treatment. The cost usually includes 18-20% gratuity and you can add additional tip if desired.
Following our treatment, we spent the next several hours relaxing in the Thermal Suite. This is a restricted area for spa guests and for anyone that purchased a daily or cruise-long package.
