Editorial Review for Ummelina International Day Spa – by Jeff Zeunert
The Scene
Nina Ummel has gone to great lengths (and distances) to bring her clients a unique spa experience: hand-carved teak doors from Java; 27 exquisite teas from around the world; and the solarium, a quiet place reminiscent of a luxurious Eastern destination. Wicker chairs, flowing silk drapes and natural light diffused by bamboo blinds provide an exotic beginning to your "journey."
The Services
The Equator is a two-hour indulgence: spend 20 minutes relaxing in a waterfall shower before moving into a steam room infused with the scent of essential oils, followed by a salt rub and water massage. Finally, enter a dry sauna where warm oils and muds are rubbed into your skin. The signature Revive facial employs an enzyme peel instead of traditional extractions for a gentler approach to deep pore cleansing.
The Details
Whirlpool, soaking tub, steam room, dry sauna, waterfall shower. Massage, body treatments, wet treatments, acupuncture, facials, hair removal, sunless tanning, manicure/pedicure, full-service salon.

From the moment you arrive at Ummelina, you feel the warm and friendly vibe of the place. I had a full day of services including a 90 minute Massage (by the amazing Stephanie!), a Healing Facial and the Crowning Glory (done with incredible skill and the magic hands of Fawn :) and an Aromatic Waters treatment with Amanda who was also just great. The spa is beautiful, tranquil, exotic and very unusual in the menu of services offered. Ummelina's global theme is so unique - just the aromas and decor send you off into another world of bliss and relaxation. I also enjoyed the Spa Lunch in their Apothecary where they blend their own herbal teas, which were incredible! My focus for the day was "detox" and I couldn't have been more pleased by the results. I felt wonderful when I left. I am from NY and was traveling on business. I will DEFINITELY return to this spa when I have the opportunity !! Don't look any further...
Pros: Ambience, Professional, Warm, Friendly, Caring Staff, Excellent Service and Products

I don't normally write reviews, but i thought i should give my 2 cents! I have been going to Ummelina for years. I have tried other spa's and even followed some of my therapists when they leave, but i alway's find myself coming back. All of the massages and facial i have had have been amazing. I never request anyone because everyone i have had is, yes, amazing! Thank you Ummelina for the years of great massages and the extractions i have desperatly needed and not wanted!!
Pros: always have a great staff
Cons: you have to leave when you are done with your massage
