What Our Clients Are Saying
5/09/2007
Viva is great - I tried Viva a couple of years ago for the first time and it was wonderful. I enjoyed it so much that my husband and I both bought season packages for our anniversary and shared a couples room. He had never had a massage before and absolutely loved it. The staff was awesome and so professional. I'm so impressed with Viva that I'm trying their other services. I'm looking forward to going back!

My boyfriend and I went to Viva for the Delicious Duet Spa Package and I was really impressed! The people there were so kind and really seemed to care about us. The massage therapists were so good and the place is so nice! I highly recommend Viva!

“My experience of Viva was a breathtaking
and relaxing experience. The dedicated staff that greets
you with a smile upon entry of the spa made me feel
very comfortable and pleased... This is an Excellent
Spa! I received a Facial from Barbara she took her time
gave me an analysis of my skin, made me feel comfortable
and was very knowledgeable in maintaining good skin
conditions. Keep up the good work VIVA!! I will be back!”

“My hairdresser recently moved away and
I was referred to Viva by a good friend. I was really
nervous because I have long hair and am very particular.
I was really impressed from the moment I walked in the
door. Everyone was so nice and the atmosphere was great.
Alison, my new hairdresser, was the BEST part about
it. She did such a great job and was not pretentious
at all (you know how some hairdressers are). I plan
on coming back for my hair and also trying some of their
other services :) Thanks Alison for making me feel beautiful!”

“I got one of the holiday specials -
massage, sauna, wrap, aroma therapy.... Hands down it
was one of the best spa experiences I've ever had. Tamara
worked on me and she was extremely professional, caring,
grounded, and gave a wonderful massage. I look foward
to going back again. I loved my entire experience.”
12/11/2006
“I love getting massages, and after getting several
massages at VIVA, I gotta say : They're the best!!!
The thing that sets Viva apart from other day spas is
that you can ALWAYS count on getting an exceptional
massage there. When it comes down to it, the staff at
Viva CONSISTENTLY offers great massages! I highly recommend
getting a deep tissue massage, they must specialize
in them!!! Also, the whole staff is great, the location
is convenient, there is a large variety of services
and everyone made me feel really welcome and appreciated.”

I am usually a no nonsense, strictly massage kind of
person. I received a gift card to Viva from my husband.
One of my girlfriends convinced me to schedule a "package"
together we dove into spa bliss!!! The nervousness left
as soon as we walked in. The place was warm, inviting,
and pleasing to the eye. The staff was friendly and
serving. I warned them of my reluctance to get anything
other than a massage and they were informative and comforting.
They described the benefits of everything and assured
me I would enjoy it all. They were right!!! I am converted.
My overall experience was great! A magical massage,
a fantastic facial, and a warm wrap!!! I will return,
I will recommend this to my friends, and I will receive
treatments for the "whole" body!!! Next time
I plan on visiting the salon side. It will undoubtedly
be fabulous!!! THANK YOU VIVA (and thank you honey for
the best gift ever)”
12/11/2006
“My best friend bought me a gift certificate for
a mani, pedi, massage and facial and I was sooooo impressed
with Viva! All the services were amazing, the place
is decorated so well and the staff was awesome! The
relaxing affects are still with me even days later.
That was the best gift I could have ever gotten!!!”

“I highly recommend a visit to Viva Day Spa for
a facial. I have lived all over the world from NYC,
Boston to Hong Kong and have been a big fan of facials.
Monday is the day that most spas are not open and yet
it is the day when you really need to get a pick me
up for the week ahead. I booked my appointment with
Danielle who is the facialist on Mondays at Viva and
she pampered me incredibly well. (There's something
to be said about having your facial on a day other than
Thurs or Friday when the mad rush is pushing for the
weekend) I arrived home to a number of comments about
how smooth my face looks and radiant. Danielle truly
knows how to make sure you feel relaxed and that you
come out looking and feeling better in the end. I give
her and Viva high marks for their facials, the product
they use and, the overall experience. I hear the massages
here are great as well so that may be my next appointment!”
10/25/2006
This spa truly has an Austin feel. The interior is cool
and clean. The therapists are hip, professional and
extremely good at what they do. I recommend Barbara
for eyelash tinting, Lisa for sugaring, Michel for deep
tissue massage and Shannon for a nurturing massage.
10/09/2006
“I had my first Viva Diva experience and I am
sold. My body feels great (I had the Autumn Dream Spa
Package). The services were excellant and the staff
was hip AND friendly. Shannon was my therapist and she
made me feel like I was the most special person in the
whole world. I own my own business and I can tell you
that what Viva has achieved is beyond wonderful...I
already rebooked and cannot wait to go back. I even
took a stack of cards to give to friends. Do yourself
a favor and GOOOOOO.”
