Red Door Spa In Chicago

I recently celebrated a bachelorette party at Red Door Spa on Michigan Avenue and it was the perfect activity to do with a group of girls, whether for a bachelorette, birthday or any festive occasion.  Any guests can rent out the Red Door café for $75 an hour for a private setting for a group to gather in between treatments.

We enjoyed mimosa and chips and dips (we brought all of our own snacks) at the cafe.   Regina from the Red Door team was fantastic and kept checking on us, assisting with fresh ice and any other needs and was just a really amazing, welcoming part of the team.  Our group changed into robes right away and lounged in the café then joined each other back there after the treatments and to wait for the girls that were having longer treatments.

I had a Swedish massage with Deana that was just out of this world.  She was so thorough and even though it was only 50 minutes, she made the most of every second and was able to focus a little bit of extra time on my problem shoulder but still managed to make time for every other body part including an amazing face rub!!

The girls that experienced the nail offerings delighted over them as well.  The bride-to-be had a manicure with Flori, the top manicurist, and said it was the best one she has ever had in her life and that she is definitely coming back to have her wedding manicure with Flori.  Flori did a beautiful, trendy light purple color with a little bit of sparkle on the end of each nail- perfect fun for a celebratory weekend.

After about four hours we realized we should probably head on to our next activity, but we did miss the rain on Michigan Avenue and headed out fully, refreshed, recharged and in complete bliss after our fantastic spa afternoon at Red Door!
