Spa Question

Ok I admit I have know clue on spas.

I would like to surprise my wife with a spa package on our trip in June. We will be staying at BLT so would like to have it be somewhere close,maybe within monorail system.
I know there are a few around but have no clue if they are the same or one is better etc...

figured me and DD could have daddy/daughter time with some parasailing or boat rental while Mommy is pampered

So can someone help me help my wife have a relaxing time

Unless I'm mistaken, the spa at the Grand Floridian is closed for a while (this whole year, I think) due to construction of DVC units there. The only other spa is at the Saratoga Springs Resort, which is certainly less convenient in terms of location since you're staying at BLT. DD and I stayed at BLT last October and ended up going to Saratoga Springs for the spa. We took a cab both ways, but the spa experience itself was very nice!

There are two full service spas currently operating at WDW! The Spa at Saratoga Springs resort is run by Nikki Bryan spas. They also offer massage and other limited services at the Contemporary, Animal Kingdom Lodge, Boardwalk, Yacht and Beach Club, Wilderness Lodge and Coronado Springs. You can find info on all of these locations at Niki Bryan Spas :: Relaxed Yet™ I've had services at multiple locations and actually going to Saratoga Springs is my favorite!

At the Dolphin hotel you can find the Mandara Spa. Disney Resort Mandara Spa | Disney Hotels | Orlando Hotel | Disney Hotel
I've never been, but I just noticed a special on the website. I might have to check it out!

That's right - the Grand Floridian spa is currently closed for that reason. I'd go with Saratoga Springs, which isn't the most convenient, but it's a lovely place.
