Gaia Spa Ipanema

Got a deep tissue massage - Larissa's got some seriously strong hands, you know she knows her stuff. Well worth the $200.My hotel wanted twice that, so I chose this place after checking out the reviews. She speaks English and I used WhatsApp to make the booking.

This was one of the best massages I’ve ever received. I told my therapist what areas I’d like her to focus on and while she did full body, she still focused on my sore areas. It was both relaxing and effective. I might get another one before leaving Rio! Highly recommend!

Fiz massagem com a terapeuta Larissa e foi incrível. O atendimento do Felipe e todo o local estavam impecáveis. Super recomendo.

This was amazing. Larisa was absolutely incredible. I’ll definitely be back.

Realizei a limpeza de pele com a profissional Erica e adorei o serviço! Ambiente acolhedor e agradável. Vale muito a pena.

One of the best massages I've ever had. Truly. I'm only disappointed that I went on my last day and couldn't go again! Great price, 200 BRL for a one hour massage. Luxury hotels will charge 2-3 times as much and it won't be as good.No signage but I've posted a photo of the front door, just ring the bell. Highly recommended!

Atendimento maravilhoso!!Vale muito a pena.A massoterapeuta Larissa é extremamente profissional e é maravilhosa!

Booked a couples massage due to all the 5 star reviews. Don't get me wrong, the experience wasn't bad.The pros are that the Whatsapp booking was clear, staff are very nice and professional, and the space is clean.Some of the negatives: my husband got a massage table with a headrest, I did not. They gave me a pillow when I asked for one but, because it was not built into the table, it made it difficult to breathe; I ended up not using it, which made my neck hurt throughout the massage. During the massage, I kept asking my masseuse to please do it harder and she would for a minute but then go back to being very, very gentle. Also, although it was a couple's massage and we started at the same time, I was done a full 10 minutes before my husband-- it was a bit odd to just be laying on the table while his massage continued.Again, nothing bad about this spa but I wouldn't book another massage.

Amazing facial. Super friendly staff, very thorough and professional cleaning. Pleasant experience, would love to come back.
