Desiree's Spa & Massage — Local services in Harlingen

The absolute BEST Spa in South Texas by far. The moment you walk in you feel the sense of elegance, softness, and professionalism in the room. I have known it to be a small building with beautiful hard wooden floors with gorgeous chandeliers in the hallways as you walk down to your personal massage room.

Now they are continuing to expand the love for everything spa related. The have added on a stunning NEW building in front. Although still in remodel stage the new added look will blow everyones energy away the moment it's done. I can feel it!

I had my 80 minute massage and then a pedicure in their new white full body massage chairs which was the perfect touch. I could hear nothing but my own inner joy of relaxation. If you have not been to Desiree's Spa it is a MUST! I have also gifted MANY friends a gift certificate during the holidays, so they can experience what slowing down really feels like.

Thank you also to Victoria my masseuse. She is the BOMB! Anyone who needs medium to REAL deep tissue massage I would request her. Her calm energy is always present. LOVE HER for always fixing me right back up after a hard...

The spa employees were all very professional and the atmosphere was great! They created a perfect area for total relaxation! The masseuse I had was not weary when I tod her about an implanted device I have or of the recent foot surgery I had, she gave me an awesome massage and give me my first experience with cupping. I was nervous about the cupping but it actually felt really good and I'm anxious to feel the benefits of it. Other places I have gone to before we're scared about my device and previous surgeries and did not give me good massages. Also my nail technician gave me a really great manicure and pedicure plus great conversation! I plan on returning in the future for more massages manicures pedicures and I even wanted to try out their facials! I highly recommend this spa!!!

Update: I'm very sad to say that my shellac manicure did not even last an entire week. They started chipping at about day 2 and started peeling off yesterday and is now completely gone leaving my nails looking awful. I do not recommend paying extra to upgrade to shellac, it was a...

I’ll preface this review by saying that I happened upon this sweet day spa entirely by accident.

The space is spotless, bright, and airy, with lots of natural light- the tone is very nicely set from the second you walk in. When I arrived, I was promptly and warmly greeted by my masseuse and the spa’s namesake, Desiree, her very kind husband Michael.

I said (I believe almost verbatim), “I want a deep tissue massage that will feel like I’m being bulldozed!” 😂😂 Boy, oh boy, did Desiree deliver! Pairing tremendous physical strength with [clearly very] extensive anatomical knowledge, Desiree delivered an 80-minute massage that highlighted her skill, professionalism, and obvious passion for what she does. She is very considerate, always checking in to see that pressure, temperature, etc. is to your liking, and by the end of my session I felt like a lot of productive work had been done.

It would be an absolute pleasure to...
