SPAS- Las Vegas
“Where Only the
Best Will Do!”
By Sandy Zimmerman

Las Vegas offers many luxury
spas, but the Spa at Encore is in a
CLASS BY ITSELF!  Steve Wynn,
Chairman & CEO of Wynn
Resorts, has created his latest
jewel, the Encore Resort and
Casino, where only the best will
do.  After experiencing the
treatments and the atmosphere,
you will know the true meaning of
the word “pampering”.   

We took the design tour with
Todd-Avery Lenahan, founder of
ABA Design Studio, during Encore’
s Media Week.  Responsible for
the Encore’s Spa and Room
design, he explained, “This spa is
not the usual concept.  Most spas
make you believe you are dealing
with wellness, weight loss,
becoming more focused and a
better human machine.  The Spa
at Encore is all about pampering,
making you feel exotic and
wonderful.  They make you look
glamorous in a glamorous
atmosphere and all those things
that go with beauty.  You will feel
more spiritually centered and
more beautiful.  I feel better in a
balanced space than unbalanced
space.  The spa accomplishes all
of this in an extraordinary way.  I
feel much better in a beautiful
space than an ugly one.  It is
completely unique and original in
design.  The curved ceiling looks
like a Gothic cathedral.   

Ryan Crabbe, Spa Director,
commented, “The Spa is an
amazingly designed facility.  I was
walking through the atrium the
other day when three gentlemen
arrived. One man felt as though
he was in China, the second man
compared the décor to Greece,
while the third chimed in ‘no, no,
no, I am in Italy!’  The Spa has
global flair to its design.  It is
really neat to operate a spa and
lead a team of spa professionals
with a welcoming space, a space
that is very emotional, that helps
the guests relax before they even
experience their treatments.  

Some of the joys of being a guest
are enjoying our Water
Transformation circuit.  We
encourage guests to take the
waters and enjoy the steam
room, sauna, hot plunges an even
the warm chaise lounges.  The
water cures are detoxifying, they
have a physical effect on the
body.  The hot plunge pool relaxes
the muscles, encourages natural
detoxification through sweating.  
After you cycled through a sauna,
steam room and hot plunge pool,
you are ready to be cooled off.

The Spa at Encore
The Spa at Encore offers 51 treatment
rooms for massage, body treatments,
facials and hydrotherapy, including 14
double-occupancy garden suites.  Their
61,000 square feet facility also features a
fitness center with two movement studios
offering spinning, yoga, pilates, conditioning,
and meditation.  They staff five full- time
instructors for group classes or private
instruction.  Personal trainers are available.  

The Salon at Encore
The Salon at Encore features 14 hairstyling
stations, 10 stylists, four colorists, 16
manicurists, eight pedicure thrones, six
manicure tables, three makeup artists and
two makeup stations for all your beauty
needs.  All of the Spa and Salon’s
treatments are never rushed and are always
tailored to the guest’s needs.
are designed to reset the bodies’
temperature and stabilize the
environment for guests.  You can
only stand one minute in the first
cold pool and two-three seconds in
the second.  There are also two
pool-sized Jacuzzis set at 103
degrees and 106 degrees.  The
special atmosphere leads you into
your treatment.  We want the spa to
be an emotional place with bubbling
water urns and Chinese lanterns.”  

Ryan described the Four-Hand
Massage.  “This is considered the
most profound type of massage
and body treatment a guest can
have.  Our therapists are trained
and constantly practice to make
sure the guests experience a
massage almost given by one
person.  The two therapists have to
make sure the massage is
synchronized with a flow and
natural rhythm to their work.  
Guests feel this is a complete
experience.”  If you like a massage,
just imagine two therapists at the
same time.    

We discussed some of their other
treatments.  Ryan said, “The stone
massage originated back with the
ancient Indian tribes.  A lot of our
services are inspired by the
wellness philosophy of Ayurvedic
therapies.  They use spices,
coconut sugar, cucumber mint, and
bubbly mimosa body scrubs as a
natural compliment to the
treatment.  Guests are becoming
more creative in their selection of
unique spa treatments.”

I thoroughly enjoyed the Salon at
Encore.  Their Custom Pedicure is a
super-hydrating pedicure packed
with vitamins and minerals to
promote healthy-looking feet.  We
choose between a moisturizing
mask and massage or hot stone
massage.
The large chairs faced the outside
window for a wonderful view while
being pampered.  There were
curtains surrounding our pedicure
chair which gave us the feeling of
being in our own private room.  

MOTTO:  “The Spa is designed
around the most important person
in the world: you.  Every treatment
is tailored to your body, your unique
needs and concerns . . . to how you
feel when you are there with us.”
