On a recent trip to the portland area my sister and I stumbled across an amazing gem of a spa- Abba Day Spa! I am from out of town and we wanted to just relax and catch up and what better way to do that then while you're receiving facials, masssages, waxing, and pedicures with each other. Let me just say that I've had my share of spa experiences and most of them pretty good with a hand full of not so good but this trip to Abba not only re-set the bar but has left me permanantly trying to find a reason to make the 2 hour drive as often as I can. From the outside it looks kind of meek but then you enter and you're completley transported into the most comfortable, luxurious, professional, friendly, and enjoyable spa you can imagine. Most spas I've sampled that are luxurious leave a lot to be desired, basically they staff is a bunch of stiffs and while the places are pretty but you are paying for every decoration plus in your bill. At Abba the entire staff looked not only like they love their jobs but like they couldn't wait to make you as happy as they were.The treatment rooms are immaculant, not that you can focus on that when you're receiving the best massage you've ever had! So to sum this up yes I would not only recommend Abba to my best friend (even though you'd want to keep this your secret hide out) but I'd also recommend them to an enemy because hey after a trip there even the rudest person could benefit from their mind/body altering treatments!
