Visited Montanya Spa again with my friend Becky yesterday, and it is still all five stars. This is a tucked away gem next to the Bower Museum in Santa Ana; however, you feel like you're in a retreat-like setting elsewhere. The owner, Tanya, and staff have done a good job maintaining a smaller, intimate, exclusive setting, and it is appreciated. We did a half-day package with lunch. Both Celeste (body practitioner and masseuse) and Katherine (esthetician) were amazing. Very skilled and also educated in their disciplines, including products.

I've been coming here well over 10 years and love it. It's one of my favorite hidden spots. I've never had to park in the bowers museum parking lot except for during their Christmas party (which is well worth it!) All of the staff are professional and do great work! I have a special spot for Jennifer. She has such a unique way of massage that's deep but relaxing at the same time. Concerning the locker rooms, I've never had to wait too long.

Cons: -Parking is 6.99 at bowers. They mention the lot but not the cost (to be fair, no issue with the cost but I recommend letting clients know it's a fee and you have to go through... read full review
