SPA ETIQUETTE

Etiquette & Policies:

Appointments: We recommend scheduling spa appointments in advance. Reservations require a credit card to confirm your treatments. Walk-in appointments are subject to availability but cannot be confirmed without a credit card on file.

WHEN YOU ARRIVE:

Please arrive 15-20 minutes before your scheduled appointment to allow time for check-in, filling out the intake form, and changing into your robe and slippers. We provide lockers for your personal belongings. Complimentary water, tea, or wine are available for our guests. Please note: a 20% service charge will be added to your services at our DESUAR Spa locations in Monterey and at the Westin Bonaventure, with 15% of that going to your therapist.

CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS:

Please Note: Company policy requires that the credit card be present at checkout. We are unable to process “card on file” transactions.

Due to an increase in fraudulent transactions we are no longer able to process any transactions using a stored credit card. If you are booking for another person you will need to verify card ownership before we can accept third party payment Please call the spa to complete verification before the appointment begins.

Cancellation:

To avoid being charged for your treatment, please cancel or make changes to your appointment at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled time. Refer to our cancellation policy for more details.

Gratuities:

Gratuity is always appreciated. We suggest a gratuity of 20% of the full price of the service provided. For promotional vouchers, a minimum 15% gratuity is required, which can be charged to your credit card if not provided. Please note that a 20% service charge will be added to your services at our DESUAR Spa locations in Monterey and at the Westin Bonaventure, with 15% of that going to your therapist.

SpaWeek/SpaFinder Gift Cards

We accept these gift cards for full-priced treatments only, and they cannot be combined with discounts or promotions, These gift cards also cannot be used to purchase products, nor can they be used to pay for gratuities or service charges. A credit card is still required to book your appointment, and failure to meet our cancellation policy will result in a charge to your credit card.

Promotional Vouchers:

A credit card is required to book appointments with promotional vouchers. Failure to meet our cancellation policy will result in a charge to your credit card, and the voucher will not be redeemed.

Late Arrival:

Please arrive 15-20 minutes early to complete the intake form and get assigned a locker. Your appointment will start promptly at the scheduled time, and late arrival may reduce the length of your service to accommodate other spa guests.
