Overpriced and underdone. Nowadays with the amount of options available in LA, why anyone would choose to come here I don't know.

I thought I'd been to a fair number of day spas, but this one was much more than I expected for an indoor day spa. The changing rooms were warm and clean. The social hot tub was large and spacious. The quiet tub was calming and relaxing. The misting rooms were small, but adequate. I had a paraffin massage, which... More

Had a wonderful spa experience with my sisters and mother for a great girls weekend away! The spa was upscale. The staff was super friendly, attentive and my masseuse was amazing. The others areas that the spa offers its customers -- spa, sauna, jacuzzi and steam room were impressive. Save time afterwards or go in early to enjoy them! The... More

Burke Williams offers massages done by very trained and experienced staff in a cozy atmosphere. Everyone is very helpful and attentive. The treatment rooms itself are doable. The place (entrance, welcoming area, waiting area, treatment rooms, etc are all a bit dark and lacking a little coziness. A big plus is that the therapists know very well their job, have... More

BW is a clean, upscale spa in the heart of Santa Monica. Offering a wide range of treatments, the real "deal" is to become a member - where for the price of the monthly membership, you basically get a free one hour massage or facial. Your own mileage may very, of course, depending on who does your treatment. To be... More

Such a great place! Men's spa room great with excellent steam room, jacuzzi, sauna, nice showers and plenty of amenities. I have never had a disappointing treatment. Try the Hunter's Retreat for a great body treatment.

I had a treatment in March (as a treat to myself after the LA Marathon) that brought me to tears. I did not ask for anything, but management reached out to me and offered to give me a treatment in return. At check-out, I was not charged for the treatment I did not like (even though I wanted to pay... More

I saved up about 5 years worth of gift certificates and cards to Burke Williams. It was about time to use them and experience what everyone had been raving about. I made an appointment and was told to get there about an hour early to enjoy all the amenities before my massage. My friend said to especially make use of... More

I had some time to spare before I had to go to LAX to catch a plane back home to Australia. I decided a massage was in order. I had not made an appointment but there was a vacancy available in 20 minutes time. I was shown into the spa area, given a tour around and assigned a locker. Once... More
