About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
This spa offers a science-based Hot Cold Relax protocol centered on contrast therapy. Spa-goers consistently praise the effective and rejuvenating sauna experience, noting the facilities are exceptionally clean. The venue features both saunas and cold plunges, with guests appreciating the opportunity for contrast therapy, which they describe as both pleasurably uncomfortable and mentally challenging. The warm benches for post-sauna relaxation are a frequently highlighted amenity. A point of feedback is the current limitation of having only one cold plunge, located upstairs, which can accommodate approximately three people, leading some guests to express a desire for an additional plunge pool, particularly downstairs.
Atmosphere
The atmosphere is described as peaceful, nourishing, and relaxing. The space features an open, airy, and light design with lots of natural light and a collection of beautiful plants that make the environment feel fresh and alive. Guests appreciate the quiet, serene vibe, especially in the downstairs area, and note it is a digital and alcohol-free zone, contributing to a decompressing retreat. The overall setting is spacious, clean, and tidy, maintained for an exceptional experience.
Staff
The team at Sauna House is consistently noted as excellent, friendly, professional, helpful, and knowledgeable. Staff members like Phil, Maggie, Allie, and Karin are mentioned by name for providing warm welcomes, helpful tours, and anticipating spa-goers' needs. Guests observe that the staff is always cleaning and ensuring everyone has what they need for their visit.
Location & Expansion
Guests express a desire to see more locations and look forward to potential expansion, with some wishing for a Sauna House in their own city.
