Editorial Review for milk + honey day spa – by Chip Rankin
In Short
Nestled in Austin's Second Street District, this urban day spa manages to be serene while still harkening to its metropolitan roots. The warm-toned, minimalist decor in the reception lounge belies the volume of body, skin and nail options. A back buff, to cleanse athletes' pores, is a highlight of a line of men's services. Professional and stylish patrons zip in and out, but the downtown bustle doesn't interfere with the rejuvenating treatments.

I have worked in 3 spas in austin and think that 80% of your experience when going to a spa is exactly that "an experience". I LOVED the spa partisan treatment I received but the front desk, locker room and waiting area were disappoining. The front check in area where they do nails seems busy, too open and unwelcoming. What is the deal with the way too tall check in desk?? Once my friend and I were directed to the locker rooms we were left a little unclear as what to do next? I might also mention that she had two left foot slippers and the dirty robe bin was overflowing all over the floor and their were empty water glasses all over the counters.We found our way to the waiting room where it seemed like a full employee shift change. There were people EVERYWHERE! Here we are in our robes and people are walking in and out, talking to each other, carrying laundry, asking co workers to clock them out and the best was the electrician?? guy who walked thru the waiting room 3 times trying not to make eye contact with us. Kid you not it felt like 15 people were walking around in that little waiting area! When the therapist came to get me he asked about my paperwork which hadent been filled out bc it had bever been given to us?? When it came to check out there were two people in the phones talking to people who didnt even look up.....once one of them got off the phone she proceeded to check me out with zero personality. Tried to get a half smile or anything other than your total is and how much do you want to tip with no luck. I would have gone back for the treatment in a heartbeat but the rest made the whole "experience" not worth it.

Wow is the only word to describe my experience at Milk + Honey. It was my first time to have a massage by a professsional and I felt like I needed it. The moment you walk in it creates a feeling of calm despite it being located downtown. I was treated very well by the staff, they were all friendly and everything looked so serene. Tarzen was taking care of me and I could not have asked for a better person. His skills were phenominal, both massage and communicating with me. I really liked how he gave me the whole time and how he explained everything that was going to happen. Afterwards my Urban Massage I felt so different and relaxed I can't even describe it. I definately recommend any newbie or veteran to spas to ask for him because you will be treated like a queen. Woot go Tarzen, keep up the amazing work!!
Pros: Very relaxing experience and great staff
Cons: Seems small at first but it's not
