Glen Ivy Hot Springs in Corona

Glen Ivy Hot Springs in Corona

Need another way to beat the heat and relax this summer? Glen Ivy Hot Springs is a destination like no other. Come for a day with friends, a wellness escape, top therapeutic treatments, healthy food or float around in the beautiful pools and enjoy the lush landscape, Glen Ivy guarantees to make your day special, relaxing and unforgettable. With 19 different pools, including the mineral spring pools, there is a lot to experience here! A special thanks to Glen Ivy for inviting us to spend the day! We were treated to a day’s worth of relaxation at the spa, along with lunch, mimosas and a couple of the fluffy robes. We did not want to leave at the end of the day (I have been coming here since I was a girl scout in middle school and this place never gets old)!

To get the most out of your day, be sure to arrive 30-45 minutes before opening so you can find parking near the entrance, check in quickly and find a comfortable lounge chair in a prime place near one of the pools, in the shade of the palm trees or where the sun will hit the longest. If you’d like to have the same lounge chair for the entire day, reserve a lounger in their VIP seating area (Loungers are limited and are $30/day.)or consider booking a Cabana for the day. Cabanas are available for groups of 2 to 12 and are a lovely compliment to your special day. You’ll also enjoy hosted service from the Cabana menu.

If you are not reserving a lounger or cabana, be sure to take a quick tour of the property when you arrive so you can  see all of your options and choose which pool you’d like to enjoy first. There are plenty of lounge chairs around to find a spot to relax in. I like finding a spot near the pool here, then just lounge around in the pool with drink in hand. You can also register your payment options in the bath house changing area and whenever you purchase something throughout the day, they will put it on your tab. That way there is no need to carry around your wallet or debit card and you can enjoy all your food and drinks hassle free.

You will want to enjoy a meal or two at the Ivy Kitchen. Serving up sustainable, healthy and organic food, they even make fresh squeezed orange juice everyday from oranges on the property. There is something for everyone on the menu. We started the morning with bagels and lox on an arugula salad, and for lunch, we each opted for the poke salad. It was the perfect addition to our day to be able to enjoy such delicious food on our spa day.

Did I mention there were cocktails to be enjoyed? Glen Ivy recently expanded and there is now a new covered lounge area called Lounge 1860 and is serving up an assortment of wine, beer and craft cocktails.

Another one of my favorite things about Glen Ivy is Club Mud! Immerse yourself in a spring water mud pool where you can slather yourself with fistfuls of California red clay. It’s blended into a silky soft paste with mineral water. Then bake in the sun or in the warm ‘Wafa’ cave. Wash off the dried mud when it becomes loose and flakey on your skin. Boom! You’re left with super baby-soft skin. Clay is a great skin exfoliator, known throughout history to draw out impurities from the body. Club Mud is open all day. It is HIGHLY suggested you bring a second, darker swimsuit for this treatment as the red clay may stain fabric. I just wear a black colored bathing suit and wear it all day. I have never had any staining issues with that. 🙂

Burke Williams Introduces New Ayurvedic Treatments! #BurkeWilliams

Burke Williams Introduces New Ayurvedic Treatments!

By Erin

Burke Williams has a new experience to enjoy at their spas, Ayurvedic Treatments. Ayurvedic services are based on a technique that was developed thousands of years ago in India, and focuses on the subtle balance of the mind/body/spirit to achieve healing. The new body treatments are unlike anything else on the service menu, otherworldly and very unique in the market. I was invited to come in and experience this for myself and as I love Burke Williams and trying the latest and newest unique experiences out there, I was super curious to see what it would be like.

The Orange spa is conveniently located just off the 5 and 22 Freeways in The Outlets at Orange. It is a luxurious location that reflects the opulent beauty of a fine Italian Villa. After getting checked in and settled down it was nice to relax by the fireplace in the main lounge and I enjoyed the amenities in the spa while waiting for services.

Over 25 treatment rooms are in this beautiful facility, making it the perfect location for entertaining and offers a second, private lounge for groups. The therapeutic aroma of their signature essential oils wafts through the air. You can help yourself to pitchers of fruit-infused iced water or tea throughout the spa. I love the fruit-infused water they have. Get ready to relax and enjoy! 🙂

As I was waiting for my appointment time, I enjoyed the relaxing and welcoming atmosphere of the spa until my therapist came to get me for my treatment I had come here for. My therapist, Inga came to greet me and take me back to the private treatment room to experience the Ananda service.

Inga told me a little bit more about the practice of Ayurvedic and what the Ananda treatment consists of. Here’s a little bit more information on that if you are just as curious as I am to learn more about it.
