I have been visiting the milk + honey spa in the 2nd Street District for over a decade, usually getting a 90 minute deep tissue massage. After COVID, I have been visiting less often; however, yesterday I visited the spa for a 45-minute hydrotherapy facial treatment with April. The front desk check-in was easy, and I headed into the men's locker room, where milk + honey offers TWO private steam showers. The lockers are electronically coded, and they provide robes and thick, rubber slippers. The steam shower takes about 5-10 minutes to start and warm up, but once in there, it feels like a dream. I usually spent about 20 minutes in there relaxing my muscles before a massage or opening my pores before a facial. After the shower, I put on my robe and headed into their lounge area, where they offered lemon- and cucumber-infused waters as well as snacks and hot teas. April came to get me in the lounge and we headed into one of the many private rooms where they conduct the treatments. I laid down in the bed, which is similar to the massage bed and enjoyed my treatment which consisted of extractions, various gels and lotions and a neck massage. I am huge fan of milk + honey, they are definitely my spa of choice, and they have a loyalty program where you can earn rewards such as money off treatments and products.

Wow! I visited Milk + Honey for my first facial. I was truly impressed by my overall experience. My friend and I scheduled signature facials for the same time and their team was helpful in finding time that worked well for us. We were welcomed into the light and airy lobby area and then brought back into the locker rooms to change into robes. The locker rooms have low lighting, which creates a relaxing environment. Their waiting room is filled with comfortable seating, light snacks, water, and tea. The signature facial was extremely soothing and enjoyable. My esthetician confirmed what I wanted to focus on and was knowledgable about all things skin and skincare. I did not want the hour to end. She also provide some skincare recommendations at the end of the appointment. I left with hydrated and glowing skin. This was a wonderful first facial experience!

I was in town for a short trip and looking for somewhere to get my nails done. I’m so glad I found this place! The space was charming and clean. The staff was wonderful, and Megan my nail tech was a delight! She was very thorough and took her time to do things properly. She was also full of great energy and gave me great tips on places I should visit while I’m here. Will definitely come back!

I received a gift card for a facial and a full body message here. I booked the appointment online, which was convenient as the website displayed the time and the therapists' name. If this is your first time (like myself), you can choose your preference for a male or female therapist. At the end of the booking, there was detailed information on what to expect from appointment confirmation to parking instructions. ($7 vallet parking). I parked at the City Hall parking garage, which was right across the street from the spa, so it was only 2-3 minutes walk. The spa will send you an email to fill out your skincare routine and your concerns that you might want to share with them prior to the appointment. I learned that there could be so many concerns that I could've brought up, but I didn't know or remembered at the time. The massage therapist, which unfortunately I forgot her name, was very gentle and explained every step and product that she used on my face. It was very helpful knowing it as I have dry and sensitive skin. The session flew by so fast as I was half asleep most of the time because I felt so relaxed. I would definitely come back again.

I honestly cannot say enough great things about this location. Flew into town on vacation looking for a nice spot to get a massage and relax. The staff was extremely friendly, the lounge and locker room facilities were spot on, all of the amenities including the robes and sandals and showers with steam or top notch, and they had their own line of products available for sample in the locker room for your preparation to leave the facility. The massage therapist we had were absolutely amazing and we left there fully refreshed and ready to tackle our day in Austin. I 1,000% recommend this Spa if you're looking for a great day or even just a couple hours of relaxation!

Very nice spa. It was a last-minute booking, so I was only able to get the 45-minute massage. Boy, do I wish I could have had more time to just relax afterward, but it was close to their closing time. I loved the steam shower and the overall atmosphere. The lady at the front desk was really nice. I can not remember her name, maybe Nina, but I'm not sure.

Visited while I was in town for my birthday and loved every minute! Sky/Skye (sp?) did my massage and was absolutely perfect! They were phenomenal all around! Good pressure, great communication, and such a calming presence. Kelly did my facial, and her bubbly personality was infectious. She gave me some really good tips (and compliments on what I was doing right, which is always nice). This experience has really sold me on adding this into my self care routine whenever possible. For days afterward, I felt no tension in my shoulders, which is a miracle. And my skin was glowing! 10 stars across the board

I've been to several Milk and Honeys and decided to give 2nd street a try. 1st..parking is a problem. You have to find the RIGHT garage which accepts validated parking from M&H. In the email sent they recommend getting there 15-20 min early to find parking and mentally shift from the outside world to the spa. I had a 75 min massage scheduled..after I found parking and walked to M&H, I checked in to find out they validate for 90 minutes. 🤔 So I ended up having to pay a little for parking. 2nd...check in was simple and I was walked back to the locker room to find 3 customers already there. Let me tell ya..4 or more people in that locker room are a crowd. There were several lockers which didn't have robes/shoes and then several others that wouldn't shut due to the lock being activated. 3rd.. found a locker and got into the super duper comfy robe and slippers♥️. Went to the steam shower to find the water flow to be incredibly dismal. The very soft towel looked old and was unraveling ☹️. Went to the restroom which was SUPER small and the toilet wouldn't flush. 2 more women were brought in and there was hardly any room to move around. They were looking for somewhere to change but there is nowhere to change other than in the open bc the restroom stall was WAY too small to try to change in. 4th...made it to the lounge and there were 5 women there. 2 were having a conversation just like they were at a bar..loudly. and I think one of them might have some music playing from their phone. They were in street clothes so maybe they were just hanging out after their service? 5th...I'M CAPITALIZING THIS PART BC MY MASSAGE WAS AHHH-MAZING. MY MASSEUSE WAS ATTENTIVE, PERSONABLE, PROFESSIONAL, AND JUST ALL AROUND GREAT AT HIS JOB. HE GETS 5 STARS. All in all I won't be back to this location because it just doesn't live up to the other locations.

Outstanding service. Very nice. Courtney took time out to educate me as she gave me the best facial I’ve ever had in my life. Definitely taking my family there soon.

I went there twice in the same week, so I’m not sure which stylist I am reviewing. I liked both stylists. They were professional and they know what they’re doing , however, both times my hair did not turn out the way I asked nor didn’t look at all like the picture that I showed them. I also did not like the products that they use. It’s horribly overpriced for what you get. I will likely never go back again.
