This was my first time here and I had an awesome experience with Destiny T., Great conversation and she walked through every step. When you walked into the building your greeted at the door 🚪 and where you check in at. You get this nice and warm feeling when enter. COZY!! I went upstairs to Destiny T. Room and it was even more beautiful upstairs. Overall, Great experience and highly recommend.
Best massage in the panhandle area. We always go here when visiting and feel so rejuvenated for several days after. I had Jessie this time, and she is wonderful, working out some areas I wasnt aware were tense.My sister is a regular here and gets a great deal by purchasing a package option.Complete your vacation with a relaxing whole body massage.
I have a monthly memberships for 80 dollars a month for a 90 minute massage. I absolutely love the membership. I typically see Simone and j can’t recommend her enough for Deep tissue. This last appointment I took my mom for a couples massage and we absolutely loved our experience it was amazing! Kayla K did my moms hot stone and I did deep tissue with Loree K. Only complaint I have is I added aromatherapy to our package and I barely could smell anything at all so definitely not worth the extra 20 dollars. My first experience was over a year ago with my boyfriend and we did the day away package when he got home from deployment. Needless to say I’ve been addicted since.
I’ve been here a few times for a massage, but the hidden gem by far is the other spa treatments. I’ve gotten a few facials by Pauline and have loved how my skin feels each time. I’ve started bringing my teenager in for acne facials to help with their skin care routine and there’s been great improvement. Definitely recommend seeing her!
I’ve been seeing Pauline for facials regularly for the past 6 months and cannot recommend her or this spa enough! Pauline is incredibly professional and is completely dedicated to the services she provides. I’ve seen so much progress in my skin. The spa is perfect for a day of relaxing and the staff are very helpful and friendly.
Ive been coming to A Day Away for over a year now. I made a last minute appointment with Nikki Escobedo last Sunday and my goodness was I impressed.I can honestly say that in over 18 years of getting massages, that was one of, if not the best massage. I only hope when I want to book her for a massage or facial in the future shes available. However, I have yet to find a masseuse or esthetician here that wasnt magnificent.
I been a member for about 3 years now and I love it, and I have recommended to all my friends. I am an Active Duty so many time I have to call to reschedule my appointment or cancel it, they are very professionals, and they always make accommodation as needed it. Military friendly 💯 recommended!
I had a prenatal massage with Christina and it was AMAZING! She used plenty of pressure and made me feel comfortable the entire time. The environment was very relaxing and the staff were very friendly from the minute I entered the door until I left. Another perk - 10% discount for military & First responders. Will definitely be returning!
Simply put, “AMAZING” Mirsada was very professional and it was obvious she was very knowledgeable. Through the grapevine I heard she was who I needed to see and they were right. She listened to me and addressed my issues. I will definitely be back. Thanks again.
My husband went for a couples massage and it was amazing! We had Isabel & Jasmine and would highly recommend. Very clean and nice space.
If you ever find yourself in need of a massage in the Ft Walton Beach area schedule an appointment with Simone at A Day Away Massage and Spa. You will go in a twisted pretzel and come out a smooth fettuccine noodle ❤️ Amazing!!!
What an awesome experience from the moment you walk in the front door to the time you leave. The spa is beautifully decorated and very clean. All staff that we interacted with were friendly and professional. My wife and I booked a one-hour Signature Couple’s Massage. Both Kayla and Denise asked my wife and I ahead of time what our pressure preferences were and if we had areas we wanted concentrated on or avoided. Both ladies did a fantastic job and the hour was up before we knew it. My wife gifted me a membership where I can go once/month, so I am very much looking forward to going back! Highly recommend A Day Away for your massage/spa needs. 5 stars all around for this fine establishment and these two ladies.
Ive been seeing Simone regularly for deep tissue massages and cannot recommend her enough! She is absolutely phenomenal and gets rid of all my pain! If youre looking for a great masseuse, definitely go to Simone!
I always have an exceptional experience with Simone Woods. Her skilled hands and soothing techniques created a truly relaxing atmosphere. Simone is attentive to my specific needs, addressing areas of tension with precision. I highly recommend Simone Woods for anyone seeking a professional and therapeutic deep tissue massage.
Couples massage AND sauna/salt session for the win!!! Sauna/salt relaxes muscles and clears sinuses to prepare body for better massage experience. Sets the stage to be unwound!!! Medical grade salt will spoil you over other salt rooms. Simone and Jackie were amazing! Sensitive to our individual needs and desires for pressure as well as body areas needing work. The experience together as a couple was EXTRA special. Tabitha was an incredible hostess who greeted us with kindness and authenticity. Highly recommend at the beginning of vacation to get your mind right and in the spirit of relaxation to leave all your worries behind you!! Well done!
The most relaxing part of our vacation. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. We will definitely be returning next time we’re in town. Highly recommend
I love it when you walk into the building. It is warm and cozy, and the music is playing softly. I just got done doing a girls ladies night out for my girlfriend, who turned 50, and I think the best part about the whole experience was they had mimosas and they had chocolate strawberries, and a private area. It was a very cozy area. Remote had my girls, and it was just wonderful relaxing. Each of us went up to our massage. I got a facial. I would recommend Kristy as the facial. She does a phenomenal job. She’s very patient. She goes into details and what she’s going into details and what she’s doing to your face. I would definitely do it again with my daughter and her friends. I will always pick this place thank you staff for making my girlfriends 50th birthday a remarkable and relaxing day.
If you like to feel an asphalt roller over your muscles, book with Marie! It was SPECTACULAR!!!! 10/10
I️ schedule monthly hydro facials with Laney. She is the very best, top of the line in her skills. My face has improved tremendously over the course of time. Each session is therapeutic and refreshing. I️ highly recommend Laney to anyone whose interested in facials and spa. You can become a member for the monthly special prices. Review the website for inquiries of interest.
My daughters really enjoy this place,a gift certificate is their preferred gift. Its a very nice place, with a nice atmosphere and very pleasant personnel. You wont be disappointed.
So nice I went twice. lolVery clean and professional. Honestly had two of the best messages I’ve ever had by Marie. Here for vacation and was so impressed with this establishment.
It was VERY impressive from the front door to our departure. My husband and I enjoyed a couples massage with Jodi and Jeremy and it was THE BEST! They were both very attentive to the pressure points and our desires. It was very professional and the inside was very VERY nice. Upscale Facility and staff.I might note- this was my first massage by a man and IT IS BY FAR- the best! Thanks Jeremy!
Lovely experience and an amazing place to get both a facial and a massage for a reasonable price. Whole staff was fantastic and they were able to squeeze my daughters and I in last minute. They recommended some products from the facial, but there was no pressure to buy which is often rare at spas. I wish we did not live so far away because I would make this a regular experience. Definitely coming back during my next vacation.
Wonderful facility. Plenty of parking and welcoming and pleasant staff. Had the couples massage with warm stones on the feet. Would have preferred just foot massage with hands, no stones but dont know until you experience it. The rooms were clean and calming with background sounds of your choice. We left it on whatever they had playing. You can tell them how firm or less so you want your massage based on your preference. The infrared sauna was not up to temp ahead of time so that loses the effect and by the time its up to temperature, session is almost over. This is the only improvement I would recommend.
Denise was absolutely fantastic, one of the best massages I’ve ever gotten.
My wife surprised me with a 90 minute couples massage and it was fantastic. We were both impressed by the size and cleanliness of the place. Our masseuse was Celeste and Christina I believe her name was. They both did great. Would recommend to other people.
I received a spa package as a gift and it was an even bigger treat than I had hoped for!! Everyone there was kind and welcoming. Justin is always a pleasure to see! The atmosphere is calming and peaceful and everything was neat and clean.Christy did my facial and she was amazing! She looked over my skin and fine tuned things according to her finds. She was joyful and knowledgeable. If her own skin is any indication of how great she is… I’m not going to spill how old she is, but it’s beyond how old she looks!Miranda did my foot soak and massage and her hands are a gift straight from God! But, you can tell she knows her stuff and all her movements were with purpose. She worked extra on my shoulders because I told her that’s where I carry my tightness. There were times when she applied some hard pressure, but it didn’t hurt as soon as she released and she checked in with me to make sure it was okay.
Dont post many reviews but when I do its damn worth it.The Massage Messiah Jermey Reece.Let me tell you over the last 50 years I have been broken, battered, beaten literally Ive spent hours upon hours seated in vehicles and had to work with 40-50lbs of gear on my body.My back and shoulders muscles are like old crusty beef jerky, until I met Jermey Reece, when I left after a 90-minute Deep Tissue Massage focused on my back and shoulders I felt like I was in my twenties.Normally I can barely use my side mirrors on my vehicles or motorcycles. I swear I felt like a damn owl and could turn my head and neck 360°. Ive never felt more relaxed and for the last two years, Ive had no feeling in the tips of three fingers on both hands. For the first time in a long time, I have feeling back in my fingers. The guy is amazing. If you have back, neck, and shoulder issues Jeremy is the guy. And let me say I know it wasnt easy I could hear his fingers cracking and his knuckles cracking he never let up and kept working every knot. It was like closing your eyes and you could visually see and feel Jermey staighten every muscle and remove every knot, in my back from the back of my head allow down to my glutes. The guy should be a professional athlete massage therapist. Worth twice the amount I paid trust me I put it in his tip. You wont be disappointed.
Went in for a couples massage. The girl at the front desk was not friendly or inviting. She walked us back to the sauna. She didn’t explain anything but “here’s your robes and here’s the basket to put your clothes in.” I had some questions about what to do and wear in the sauna (I have never been in one before) she acted like she didn’t know how to respond or didn’t care. She never cracked a smile and talked so quiet or away from me that could barely hear her.My girlfriend said her Swedish massage from Jodi was amazing and she did a really good job.I had Jeremy for a deep tissue. He had really good pressure and technique. I could tell he knew what he was doing from his positioning and active release techniques. My only complaint is that I don’t feel like he managed his time well. I asked to focus more on neck and upper traps. He spent so much time there that he rushed through everything else. He barely massaged my hands, arms and legs. By the time I flipped to my back there was little time left. He didn’t massage the whole front of my legs, feet, posterior forearms or biceps at all. I left feeling kind of incomplete.
A great business with plenty of space both inside and out for parking. Referred by my Chiro, I have seen a couple of their massage therapists and have been happy with all. Jena, Kayla and Miranda all do a wonderful job, listen to your needs and check in with you during the massage to confirm they are meeting your needs. The Signature Massage is a great combination of Deep Tissue and Swedish that allows them to provide just what you need. The facility is clean and nice, they offer many other services. Highly Recommended.
Got a 30 min facial and a 90 minute hot stone massage. My facial specialist was Destiny and she was awesome! Super friendly, told me every step along the way, used nourishing products and checked in to make sure I was doing ok. so relaxing!My hot stone therapist was Denise and she was AMAZING. She knew so many techniques and it was one of the best massages i have had! Ultra relaxing as well!!I would highly recommend both these ladies and this spa. Went here from out of town on vacation and it was just magical. Very clean, very serene and very friendly. Wouldgo back if i could.
This place is so clean and smells amazing. The staff is awesome. Kristen does my Brazilian wax and she does an amazing job! Their services are reasonable. If you stay in rotation, you are only charged $35 for your wax!!!
I had the privilege to come back to this amazing place after being gone overseas for 3 1/2 years and got to love the military. Anyhow, I booked my massage today with Isabel and it was awesome. I explain to her that I had injured my lower back due to an accident and 03. She worked on my back for about 30 minutes and she did all the pointers. She also flexed my legs as well and now I can walk better. She was great. She knew exactly what I wanted and how she did with her Hands Magic. I will be back. I think the next time I will get a Swedish massage. Thank you, Isabel. 😀
Came into town to celebrate a milestone birthday with a large group. We decide at the last minute that we all needed massages. We called, they juggled the schedule around and accommodated all 7 of us. Best part was it was the best massage I have ever had. Our entire group had an amazing experience! will definitely be back and next time we will plan ahead!
I wanted to leave a review for Simone Woods as well as A Day Away Massage and Spa. Simone is one of the most talented and caring therapists I’ve had the pleasure to work with. She is very communicative and she is truly therapeutic in her technique. She works on where you need it most and is always trying different techniques when needed if a certain muscle or muscle group is not wanting to release. She will do whatever it takes to loosen and release the tightness. She truly has magic hands!The last massage I had with her, I was in a complete state of bliss, so relaxed that I had no mind chatter going whatsoever, it was AMAZING! However, this was broken when a familiar song started playing, in this case it happened to be an instrumental version of an old church hymn playing.Which leads me to my review of the spa itself. Overall, I really love the atmosphere, the ambience and decor of the spa, but my only pet peave (and this goes for any spa or massage place) is that the music played should be relaxing and neutral, something that nobody could distinguish or have associated charged emotions with, whether they be good or bad.Even though this instrumental version of a traditional Christian hymn was beautiful, it popped me out of my blissed out state and the mental chatter started, and sent me on a string of thoughts associated with memories from my childhood, etc, etc.Don’t get my wrong, I love old hymns, but this is not the time or place for it. I’ve also felt the same way when they have played Mozart, the Beatles or any number of songs that may have memories and emotional charge associated with them, good or bad.At the very least, your mind is reaching to fill in the lyrics. At the worst, you may have some traumatic or tragic memory associated with it. Maybe it was played at your Grandma’s funeral, maybe it was you and your estranged lover’s song, maybe you lost a child and it was their favorite song…you just NEVER know. Music played should be completely neutral and pretty much unrecognizable, such as meditation music, in my honest opinion.So to the management, you have an amazing spa, so many great services, a wonderful atmosphere, and a rare and hidden gem in Simone Woods, but this one little thing can really leave a negative impact in a big way. I hope you’ll take this into consideration.
I scheduled a couples massage for me and my friend I am visiting in FL and I was definitely not disappointed. We had Jackie Sy and Valentina who were amazing at what they do. I was so comfortable and relaxed they made us feel very welcome. I haven’t had a good massage where it felt like it actually helped me in a long time. Let put it this way I booked another one at the end of my trip for before I go home!
Marie is magical, and I had the best facial ever with Pauline!!
Not too happy with this place. Started my 11 appointment at 11:10, finished my 90 minutes massage at 1:25. Charged me for massage and tip before massage started. The lady took a call during massage (extended grace.. maybe it was a kid). Several timesa during massage was sending text. Unprofessional in my opinion. Tip would have been adjusted, and they shorted me 15 minutes overall.
Jeremy was amazing! He asked if I had any specific areas I wanted him to focus on during my 90 min signature massage and was careful not to apply too much pressure while working the knots out. Overall wonderful experience and I will be returning!
Jeremy Reece (Signature Massage) & Emily Kimsey (Hydrofacial) were absolutely INCREDIBLE.I usually visit with my husband, this was my first time being alone. Jeremy made me feel comfortable & respected. He consistently made sure I was okay with the amount of pressure used. He profoundly targeted all muscles with the most knots/tightness. My husband also had an appt. with Jeremy a few months ago & loved his expertise. We both work active jobs so it was highly important to us that our massages were productive in relaxation & in releasing tension. Jeremy did exactly that, with attentiveness & ease. My husband & I could not recommend him enough! Thank you so much, Jeremy.This was my first facial service at the spa, Emily did wonderful! Emily was very kind & explained every technique/product she was using. Emily educated me on my skin type & what I needed for my day to day routine. She also encouraged me on how well I had already been taking care of my skin! Emily was very professional & endearing. Thank you so much for all your care, Emily!!We will be back to see y’all again soon! Keep up the hard work. Your dedication does not go unnoticed. 🤍
First time coming here my boyfriend and I came here for a couples massage. Our massage therapists Simone and Jasmine were absolutely fantastic! The atmosphere is so calming, professional, and clean. 10/10 recommend A Day Away Massage. Services are well priced too. We will be back :)
Staying in Destin for vacation and booked an hour long couples massage with A Day Away Massage and Spa. They were AMAZING!!! We did the signature massage. Heather was amazing with helping me relax and applied just the right amount of pressure. My husband had Simone and he said she provided the best massage he has ever had. He actually goes to one at home monthly. We highly recommend this spa. One hour was not enough. We will for sure be back and will schedule a two-hour session next time.
My husband and I had a couples massage for our anniversary. I cant remember the names of our massage therapists now but the were both awesome and we left feeling so relaxed. The spa itself was clean and serene. They had us in one big room together that felt luxurious. The price was very reasonable as well. I wish we had discovered this place sooner!
Angela Ferguson is an exceptional massage therapist! She always asks about how you’re feeling and what can she help to relieve or relax you! She’s very patient and experienced! Every time I see her, I leave feeling absolutely relieved of tension and muscle tightness! She is a true assets to the A Day Away Team!!! You really can’t go wrong with any therapist BUT Angela is and will always be my preferred!!
Great spa! It’s clean, the staff are welcoming, its very affordable and the massages are top notch. I love that they offer 90 minute massages when most places offer 80 minutes. The 10% military discount is also much appreciated.
The owner here, Tabitha is very caring of her buissiness and her customers. When the front desk messed up my appointment the first time, she was quick at reaching out to me and fixing the problem. I had a maternity massage with Terri and deep tissue with Jasmine, and they were both great! Id love to go back in a few months, thank you for the relaxing experience that I was looking for 💝
Denise is AMAZING! I had a frozen shoulder. I had limited motion but when I left I had more mobility and felt much better! Not only did she help me that day she gave me advice on how to help myself. That was greatly appreciated! I loved how she took the time to find out exactly what I wanted and met those request. I loved how she explained what she was doing and why. Appreciate how she checked to ensure the pressure she applied was OK. Already scheduled my next appointment with her. So glad I found her!
My husband and I booked a trip for his birthday and our anniversary to Okaloosa Island in May. Normally I get a massage monthly, but he has only been once. As a surprise for him I booked a couples 90 minute massage. A Day Away Massage and Spa was top notch! The staff were all very kind and welcoming. Our massage was the best I have ever had! They had all the tiny details that some places overlook, but make a world of difference for the customer and their experience. We will definitely be going back! Recommend 100%!
Got chronic knots? Inflammation? Stress and tension you carry in your shoulders and back? Burned out mom who needs a break and true self care? Stop searching and go see Jasmine! I was looking for the perfect place while on vacation and Jasmine gave one of the best messages I’ve ever had. She asked what areas I wanted to focus on and totally exceeded my expectations, which are super high from past massages. The next day I still feel better than I have in forever. Price is more than fair for the quality massage you’ll get. I wish I could sign up for the monthly VIP plan and get a massage every month!
Came here with my daughter in law who is pregnant. Heather and Holli were the massage therapist and they did not disappoint. I suffer from fibromyalgia and Heather knew just what to do. So thankful that we were able to make an appointment! Holli was also amazing! Great customer service and very accommodating. Also the Mimosa was an awesome bonus 😁
From the moment you walk through the door, you know this place is special with it’s calming and peaceful atmosphere.Tirzah did an amazing job of making me feel comfortable and communicating with me about what kind of massage I wanted and how much pressure. She was incredible and I will be back soon!
Pros: Very affordable, great atmosphere, clean facility, great customer service and very good massageFeedback: I’ve had my fair share of massages so I just have a few feedback that I think would take this place to the next level. 1) after the first few minutes of the massage, ask if the pressure is good. 2) a heated table would be nice since the room is cold and you’re always at least halfway uncovered. 3) if you can’t do the heated table then I’d suggest covering the parts of the body with the sheet. Again, the room was kind of chilly.I had a great massage and would 100% recommend this place. I just think there are a few areas of opportunities for improvement
My wife and I just left from our couples Swedish massage. Third time we’ve been here and every time has been fantastic. We’ve had a facial done before and that was very nice as well. The staff is very good and when they feel a tight spot they keep working on the area until it’s no longer tight. Thinking of joining the monthly membership to make this a more frequent experience.
I had hoped for a nice massage, but I was delighted to be wrong. My husband and I didnt just get nice. It was amazing service. Very satisfied with the professional and relaxing atmosphere. The lighting was soft and calming. I even recognized the modern composer of some of the music that was played. The beds were heated and soft. There were no harsh smells. The staff was attentive and responsive. We left discussing their exceptional service on the ride back. Highly recommend!
Checked this place out for the 1st time on my birthday. It did not disappoint! Jena was my massage therapist and she was amazing. Destinys got me in for a last minute eyebrow wax and did a great job. The outside of the building looks a little rough, but inside is very nice! Will be a regular
I tried the new Infrared Sauna service. OMG!!! The set up is so beautiful! Completely separate area that has a full bathroom with overhead shower. The sauna was huge‐ it could easily fit like 6 people! I tried the Sauna with heat and salt. So this is where I wasnt fully satisfied the sauna was COLD! By the end of my 45 min session the sauna was merely 101 degrees. At this moment they only allow 45min as the longest time allowed. I will probably give it another try later because they were apologetic and compted this visit.
Bailey and Mrs. Terrie were amazing! My 17 year old daughter and I got a “couples” massage. Bailey worked out every knot I had and my daughter said Mrs. Terrie was also very professional and courteous. If we ever get the chance to come back this way we’ll be visiting them again.
This was my first experience. I had got an gift card for my b-day for a message let me just say its was very nice cozy staff was very nice I had Miss Kayla gave me the best message Ive had so far I recommend this place because I will be back thank you!
I absolutely LOVE A Day Away! Just a relaxed, comfortable environment. All the girls that work here are wonderful and kind and fantastic at their jobs! They are wonderfully accommodating. My husband and I had a couples massage booked for today (our 3rd time back). There was apparently a mistake made on booking and the massage was only booked for one. They did everything possible to make sure we got our couples massage, even moving beds around to ensure we could be together and not have to separate and one of us miss out. Thank you Denise! Amazing time as always. :-) Can’t wait for next time!
My wife were in town for our anniversary and neither of us had a spa experience. We got up early in the morning and booked an open spot on their website and received a confirmation phone call shortly afterward. The process was super easy. Upon entering it was very inviting and had a very relaxing feel. The staff was very nice and accommodating and made us feel very welcome. The next time we are here vacationing we will definitely be back! 5STARS!!!
Have a couples massage with Amy and Jasmine while on vacation. They were great! Be sure not to say deep tissue if you dont really mean it though haha. They werent playing around! Beautiful facility, very clean, completely relaxing. Highly recommended!
Beautiful place. Calming and friendly. I had a massage with Jill. She is top notch.
Isabel did my first massage ever and I’m so happy I had her do it, she was so professional and did such an amazing job, I felt like a brand new person afterwards!
Had my first dermaplane treatment and Destiny was the BEST! She explained the whole process and very meticulous about her work..my daughter enjoyed learning how everything worked..Destiny your customer service is the best! My new favorite spot
I had the best experience ever! The lady that did my massage was just beyond amazing!! I cant remember her name but shes from Pensacola and such a joy! Destiny did my facial and I truly had the best facial experience ever! Normally I dont leave reviews but this visit definitely deserved one, GREAT job ladies!!!❤️
I chose a 1 hour deep tissue massage and Jodie was my therapist. I knew I was stressed but did not realize how much until she started! She is excellent , I felt SO much better. Jodi works very hard to make you comfortable but also manages to get all those muscle knots out! Best massage I have had in years, I will definitely be back.
So Im actually updating a review I previously left 2 months ago. I had a not so good experience and I shared that in my review. I was contacted by the manager and was very pleased to know that the company cares about the satisfaction of their clients. I was able to have my services redone and I can happily say that Im very very pleased with the outcome. I will continue to go back because of the quality of service from the company and the workers. They are the best place by far that I have been to. so my sincere thank yous and appreciation goes out to the manager that reached out to me to make everything worthwhile and to the staff members who took care of me,which were Ms.Christie and Ms. Angela. They did an outstanding job!!! Two thumbs up!
I am a massage therapist and I work for Tabitha when needed but I have not had the time to get a massage myself in a while. My husband and I went in today for a couples Swedish massage and it was the best massage I have had myself in a very long time. Heather was my therapist today and I have to say she did an amazing job! My husband had Jenna and said she always does an amazing job! Thank you Heather and Jenna for a great massage!
I’ve been going to A Day Away for many years and it’s my favorite place to go. I’ve tried a few services, but mainly was there for massages. The girls are always so sweet and the pricing is so reasonable. They really listen to your problem areas instead of just doing a basic massage. Yesterday, I had a session of cupping with Kayla. Wow!!!! Immediately I felt the tension melt away. This should be your place if you need any type of work done!
We were on vacation and decided on the spur of the moment to get facials and massages! It was one of the best thing we did! I had a facial by Flavia and it was awesome! The rest of my crew had massages and said it was they best they have ever had! Will be back for sure!
Had an amazing facial with Emily! The service is always great and as relaxing as it is therapeutic! My skin feels so fresh and bright leaving! The entire staff is friendly and the environment is so pretty and relaxing inside!
I have been in the area on military orders for the last few months and chose this spa mostly because it is in walking distance from my hotel. To my pleasant surprise, I made a great choice. I have since had massages from almost every therapist on the staff and dont have complaints with any of them. Ive also had a facial, body scrub and pedicure here, which were also on point. I showed up late to a few appointments and the staff was very accommodating. I love that all massages are at a 15% discount to military members ALL THE TIME. The only thing I think can be improved is the sound proofing. Occasionally you can hear doors close or a person talking in the hallway while you are in a session.
My sister and I both received a 2 hour massage. They cut it short by 10 minutes. Most massage places allow for time between clients to clean the room etc so I am not sure why it was short. However, the massage I received from Tabitha and the one my sister got from Jill were excellent. They asked about pressure throughout the session and made sure we were comfortable. Both were very skilled.**Upon reading my review, the owner refunded 20 dollars and said the missing time was an oversight. Thank you for the refund**
Wonderful experience!!! Was here for my birthday massage and they didnt disappoint. The receptionist was friendly and welcoming. Heather was my massage therapist and she was amazing!!! Very relaxing atmosphere and experience. Will definitely recommend and will be back!
Had a fantastic experience here. Booking through their website was very easy/clear, and you can take your pick of available massage therapists.I went with a 90-min deep tissue massage. The therapist was excellent, and focused on all the problem areas that I had mentioned in my pre-massage screening and in a short conversation before we started.The prices are very reasonable, the room was comfortable and the overall experience from start to finish was outstanding.
Great massages today with my sister and my bestie. We were shocked to find they could accommodate all of us for 90 minutes at the same time. Were all stoked about the messages we got, the quality of the atmosphere, and the prices, and nobody tried to sell us a monthly plan when we were all relaxed after! Will absolutely be going back, soon!
My husband surprised me with a Swedish massage and facial for my 30th birthday. Jillian did my Swedish massage, she was very professional and it was extremely relaxing. Emily did my facial and she exceeded my expectations. The facial was amazing and very relaxing. My skin looks healthy and glowy. I left feeling very relaxed and pampered. I will definitely be back. Thanks for making this birthday girl feel special
I started my Birthday off with a massage here and it was amazing! Book with Isabel she is great and applies the perfect amount of pressure to your liking.
After dealing with Hurricane related soreness and stress this was an awesome place to visit. I had Kristine and she was excellent in understanding my issues/limitations and being very attentive to providing a relaxed and effective experience. I will definitely be back. Hopefully next time without Hurricane related reasons...
This is a little slice of heaven tucked away in FWB. Sign up for membership pricing. So worth it. I love the esthetician, Emily.(she knows her stuff, and takes the time to educate.)for my deep tissue massages, brad has really strong hands! Just recently added cupping to my massages for a knot in my back, and just running the cups up and down my back gives so much relief. So glad I found this spa. It is locally owned, and ran very professional. It is clean, and peaceful. My favorite day of the week!Thank you, a day away massage and spa!
Heather Wilson and Denise Austin was wonderful. My wife has a bad shoulder and Denise worked hard to loosen her shoulder up and did amazing. My wife is going back again today to get worked on again. We only wish we could live closer or take these girls home with us lol. Good job ladies , thank you both so much!
I received a signature massage and took my pregnant daughter for a massage. We enjoyed a full hour plus scalp massage. The areas that were tight feel so much better! They even give a military discount! It was a wonderful price. I highly recommend this place!
Our favorite place to get a massage!Every time we go it’s a new person and they are just soooo good!The environment is quiet, relaxing and super clean.I leave there feeling 100% lighter than when I came in for sure :)
Carolina is the best massage therapist I have ever had! Her session was the first I’ve ever had that left me feeling relief in my muscles with not pain. Thank you!
I had an appointment with Denise Austin she was just amazing her energy and the way she made me feel so comfortable was awesome! 100% recommend this place and going to her
My husband got me a package deal for Christmas. I got a massage from Caroline and my facial and pedicure from Christy. Caroline hit every spot I need her to. She really has the touch. And Christy was so knowledgeable and friendly. My face and feet felt brand new. Pleasant staff great atmosphere and HIGHLY RECOMMEND!Cant wait for my next trip!
My favorite massage place!! If I could go daily, I would!! Everyone is nice, professional, and I cant say Ive had a bad experience either. They are fantastic!!
Never had a massage until i camr to this place. Firat impression was amazing. Very clean and neat place. They made me and my wife feel amazing, not rushed time. We got the swedish couple massage. Was a great experience and they give u compliment wine on them.
This is the place to go for a fantastic massage. The facility is clean, the staff is friendly, and they really know what theyre doing. I went in there for an hour long deep tissue massage and they lowered my shoulder blades by an inch! I had no idea I had been storing so much stress there. Theyre also very nice to military. I highly recommend A Day Away Massage and Spa.
I was on vacation and got a Swedish massage with Simone to celebrate my 50th birthday. It was the most relaxing massage I have ever had! The atmosphere is wonderful also. I highly recommend A Day Away!
This place is amazing! Ive never had a bad massage here! Also the owner is super military / first responder friendly and offers great discounts and support to local squadrons! Everyone there is so nice and accommodating! Highly recommend.
..Nice place, very nice people. Smells great, but soooooo expensive for just a foot soak. Thinking it would be more like a pedicure massage. No its literally a regular chair, no massage chair. A basin filled with water that doesnt even go to your ankle. No jets. The lady was wonderful. Not a very long foot massage.The hot stone added fee, was only one stone on each foot, rubbed a little bit.I would have rather got a regular pedi with a massage and stone for the 55$ I paid.Very disappointed.
The experience was very awesome. Angela did my Swedish massage and she was amazing. The atmosphere was very relaxing. Staff was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Will definitely visit again when Im in the area.
While on vacation I booked with Denise for a deep tissue massage. Im so glad I did! She was wonderful! I will definitely be back the next time we are in the area.
I had an amazing experience at A Day Away Massage and Spa! I received a massage, facial and pedicure. The atmosphere was perfect and the girls there were amazing! They made a first time experience a memorable one. What a perfect birthday gift!
My girlfriend and I go here monthly, membership is a must with some good benefits. We always let them choose our massage therapists for us and we have yet to be disappointed!
I got a half day spa package for Mothers Day and it was the best! Everyone was professional and very nice, the atmosphere was totally relaxing and I left there feeling fabulous. I highly recommend!!! I will definitely be returning! It makes a great gift!!
That fact that I am writing this review at all should be a testament as how fantastic the customer service here is (In case you cant tell from my user name, Im not very personable). I called to schedule a ladys day for my wife and her two friends as a birthday gift with very little notice. Tabitha was extremely pleasant and professional over the multitude of calls, questions, and last minute changes that I bombarded her with. They made every effort to make sure that my wifes birthday was what she wanted. Even going so far as to pickup her favorite type of wine!And I received nothing but positive reviews by all three ladies...Top-rate service for a very reasonable price (I even got a free massage out of it via their points program).Thanks Again, Tabitha!
Ive given a lot of 5 stars, but this place is wonderful for man maintenance , which truly helped with my back muscles aches from a deep tissue massage
It was the most relaxing experience I have ever had from the second I walked in, to the second I left. The people are amazing!
Jena is our absolute favorite! She gives the best deep tissue massages 💆♀️The new location is beautiful. However, the entrance to the parking lot needs to be fixed.
Krisi did a cleaning facial for me and it worked wonders! I have had occasional adult acne and recently had a bad bout of hormonal based acne break out. She was able to make an incredible difference in just one treatment. After 12hrs my skin looks 80% better than before and she even gave me samples to continue treating the next few days. Very happy!!!
Amazing prenatal massage by Heather W. They have the table with the cut out for your stomach. It was extremely relaxing, peaceful and she listened to exactly what I wanted and needed. Will definitely be back.
During the massage she stop for 2 minutes. Too the point I took off the face towel and wondered if she left. I seen her sitting down, taking a break. After the massage, I asked her about it and she denied it and repeatedly asked me if I was ok, being condescending and laughing at me. She walked up to me and got up to my face and laughed at me. I asked her to walk away from me. My boyfriend experienced the same thing with his massage therapist. She left the room. Not happy with the massage and the attitude that followed. Very disrespectful
My wife and I absolutely love this place. So calming and relaxing. An 1.5 hour massage goes by so quickly! They do military discounts to, so be sure to ask for that! Cant wait to go back again!
Great place to get a hot stone massage! Rosie was my massage therapist and she did a great job! Very impressed with the spa. Very clean and neat. I highly recommend A Day Away Spa.
First massage! It was great, the staff was able to accommodate me same day. Very knowledgeable and friendly professionals. Walked away feeling much better and will definitely be visiting again! Highly recommend!
Was Leary of a bikini wax bc of auto immune issues and the stigma behind it! Destiny is the absolute best no pain hardly at all! Next Brazilian! 💜
Not the best massage iv had. Staff was friendly. Had the couples signature massage, did feel complete (didnt get my arms, hands or toes rubbed) and my poor massage girl seemed tiered. It was later in the day so that maybe why she was shakey when she put pressure on my hot spots. My husbands massus was very rough on him and she told him she was going easy on him vs acomidating his tollerance level. Prob wouldnt come here again.--- UPDATE. A few days after I posted this review the manager contacted me to resolve the issue, she was very nice and polite and promt. I will deff be returning to this spa.
Best massage EVER in my life! I look forward to my massages so much! Tabitha is so awesome! Thank you for making me feel so good and relaxed. Also a great place for facials and mani/pedis. Best place on the Emerald Coast for a massage!
I have yet to go but I purchased some certificates for my wife for Mothers day. Tabitha was awesome and helped me create some packages that my wife loved. She was so excited when she received the certificates! Thanks for all your help!
My boyfriend and i got a couples massage Christie and Angela did a fantastic job! very relaxing. we will be coming back!
We were an out of town party of 5. Called and immediately received excellent customer service... they fit us all in at the same time on the same day. Wonderful service with a smile :-) The ladies there made sure we were expertly taken care of. Well be coming back next year!
I came there never having a swedish massage and had a little anxiety about it but thankfully I got Marie who did a great job and I felt so much better. Thank you Marie.
My husband and I had our first couples massage here while in town from TN. 2 Heathers worked on us and the experience was fabulous! Thank you ladies!
Facial and couples massage was nice. Good people work here. I recommend it every once and awhile. Price was reasonable, would visit again.
Just did a couples massage and it was hands down the best massages we’ve ever had. So relaxing and comfortable. Rosie and Heather were amazing!
Been here once, my first time was an excellent experience to bring repeated business. Cannot remember my ladies name, tall lady, skinny, middle aged, brunette. Provided very professional service. Cant wait to come back!
Booked a massage last weekend - Masseuse was super professional and spa was very clean. Ambiance was great. Would highly recommend and will re-book in the future!

The staff here is so professional. Simone and Angela are outstanding therapists. Just this week Simone took Dawn in on a moment’s notice and relieved a horrendous headache. Thankful for A Day Away!
I was in FWB and checked out this place as a post workout massage. Staff knew much about the muscles, where the injuries were, and how to relax the sites. They also offer waxing services. A BroZillian waxing and massage sounds like a great combo!All in all, very friendly and good at what they do.Thanx for the massage!
Just had a massage from Jill and it was amazing! I was with a few other people and they all enjoyed their massages.So I would definitely recommend this place and Jill.
Bailey (massage therapist) is awesome! and Hope (front desk) was very sweet and nice. Definitely going back!
