Editorial Review for Dorit Baxter Day Spa – by Lynn Suhrie
In Short
High above midtown's bustling 57th Street, in a tranquil room decorated with gauzy curtains and Asian accents, the robed clientele sips lemon-mint water and munches on cookies. But the real treats are beyond the waiting room--herbal body wraps, beach-ready tanning treatments, blemish-fighting oxygen sprays and full-body cleansing "facials," all using the utmost selection of international skin-care products. The indecisive should opt for a full-day package--five-and-a-half hours of pure indulgence.

I had one of the spa packages that included a manicure, paraffin wrap, facial and sea salt scrup. Let me just first say that the sea salt scrub was amazing. It was by far one of the most relaxing and professional spas I had ever gone to. I would also say that they are a bit cheaper than other spas out there. Now mind you, you will be sending a couple hundred bucks there but it's worth every minute and every penny! The only thing I think they could improve upon is the time delay between services. I am not one of those people who likes to sit around for hours in a robe... i like to get my stuff done, relax and go home. So, if you do come for a spa service, know that you are going to be there for a long while... practically the whole day. But trust me, it is definitely worth it! I love the place and can't wait to go back.
Pros: Really good service, especially the scrub
Cons: It takes a while so be ready to wait for a minute

For the past 3 years I have been going to Dorit Baxter on 57th St. for my birthday. This year I decide to upgrade my package from the usual Body Beautifier to the Chill Out package. I spent the whole day at the spa. I was treated like a queen for a day. The ladies catered to my every whim. The place was clean and cozy. I got a parrafin facial, a body scrub, a mud wrap, a manicure and a pedicure. I even had a lunch of my choice served to me. I can't think of a better way to spend a birthday. While getting the facial I was told what I needed to do to keep my skin in healty condition. The products that were used on my face was explained to me and I was given an opportunity to puchase them. I left the spa feeling like a brand new baby. My skin was soft. I left there looking vibrant and youthful. I enjoyed myself so much later that night I went out to dinner and struck up a conversation with a woman whom I never met, at Bennihanas and told her of the experience I had at the spa. She was so impressed she asked for the number and made an appointment as we waited for our food to be prepared. I strongly recommend this spa in particular because you get a lot for your money. I look forward to going back for Mothers Day with my daughter who is also a fan of the spa.
Pros: Great Location, Ambience , Polite Staff
