Sensea Nordic Spa, Chester

What a treat!!! The atmosphere is incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating. Great pools, loved the saunas and incredible view. I definitely want to go and enjoy a yoga class next time. They have personal yoga decks beautifully tucked into the forest and you still have views of the lake. I highly recommend you go early in the day so you can take in all this place has to offer.

It's a nice experience overall. I am a out of province guest, so I wasn't familiar with what was offered for free vs paid. Here's a few tips for first timer : 1. Bring your own flip-flops. They don't offer it for free, you have to paid $12+taxes. And trust me, it's not walkable with bare feet 2. If you are going for spa pass, robe rental isn't included. $8 for rental, so you can either bring your own or just use their towels (free). 3. If you are planning to take a shower after, bring a hair brush and conditioner (I find their conditioner very watery), they do provide hair dryer and lotion Pro: 1. Love the varieties of sauna and steam rooms - their Hammam steam rooms are the highlights. You get to pick different types of salt for scrub after for exfoliation 2. Love the heated hammock - you can zip yourself up in these heated hammocks like a caterpillar in a cocoon, super cozy, that's my favourite relaxing area Cons: 1. Ongoing construction inside and outside the spa 2. There are of hot bath and cold plunge in different area, just seems repetitive. It would be nice to have different type of hot bath such as green tea bath, sea salt bath...etc 3. I was going to order a drink there but selection is limited for non-alcohol drinkers. The only choices were cider and coffee. Was hoping they will offer smoothies 4. Receptionist wasn't that helpful. I am a first timer there, and she didn't tell me much about the spa, instead I asked lots of questions, and my friend told me I missed a clay mask spot which I couldn't see it anywhere on their site map. I would recommend this for sure, it's a nice experience overall. Have nice views as well.
