Never Better Spa

What locals are saying about Never Better Spa

Laser hair removal is what comes up most at Never Better Spa. One client came in for a relaxing massage, found the rest of the treatments and now gets laser on almost every area of her body; another saw results from the first session with the Soprano machine. Askel, the owner, is named in three separate accounts, always for her professionalism and for the confidence she gives on the more delicate areas. On the body side, one client tried cavitation for fibrosis left years earlier by a liposuction and noticed the change in the first session, though she had to keep going to clear it completely. In facials, María uses the mask time to massage arms, legs and neck.

The spa is on Calle Ancha and is described as modern, clean and welcoming, "like home". It is open Monday to Friday, 10:00 to 18:00, and fit a group that came down to Jacó for the weekend into a next-day appointment. Clients call the prices accessible; on the spa's own list, massages start at US$40, facials at US$50 and laser at US$30, plus VAT.
