Weekend Outings: Spacastle

Hey luvs... so I've been having some really cool weekend outings in the past few weeks but my picture taking game really sucks :p , so unfortunately I haven't shared alot of things with you.

Several weeks back a friend of mine, the lovely Hope, treated me to a day at the Spa (as a late birthday present). She was unable to attend my bday Spaday that I had at the quaint Body by Brooklyn Spa, so she decided to make it up to me and BOY did she out do herself! :)

She took me to Spacastle in College Point. It's on the most unassuming little corner in Queens but is it phenomenal!



Its sort of set up like a cruise ship on land LOL! Seriously. Once aboard, I mean inside, anything
your heart deires is yours with the simple scan of your watch!


They have pretty good food... and amazingdrinks!! Be sure to try the College Point Iced Tea!
(had me leanin! LOL).


There are enough spa services and pools to keep you occupied for an entire day, with 5 floors of luxuriation!


The ladies locker room alone has 4 mineral pools, 2 c0ld pools, 3 saunas and a steam room, not
to mention 4 large plushy couches just asking you to pass out on them...


My good friend Jasmine's bday passed last month (on the same day as my boo ;)) and we decided to spend a day marinating at SpaCastle.


Upon entering you have to remove your shoes.
We were starving like marvin as soon as we got there so our first stop was on the Second Floor for some grub.


I decided to keep the asian vibe going and enjoyed some shrimp tempura:The girls grubbed on burgers and fries
The second floor is also like steam room heaven lol.......
mind you I've been here twice already and have never stepped foot in 1 of these rooms yet! smh
On the third floor are the outdoor pools:
These pools are surprisingly refreshing even when the weather is cold out.

Here we are enjoying 1 of the indoor pools:
(Counter clockwise - Leslie, Naimah, Michelle, Rashida & Jasmine)




Don't worry. If you don't want to be bothered with swimming and all the exertion that comes with pools there is a room full of recliners with little televisions attached so you can definitely get your couch potato on!

Jazz & Rashida

For the body conscious, they give everyone the same Spacastle signature orange top & pink shorts and this uniform just adds to the feeling of being a part of a special group of people that get to luxuriate all day long!!

the Bday girl!

Fun times indeed!

Hey, if you're looking for an awesome experience definitely try Spacastle. You won't be disappointed!

The Spa @ Royal Plantation



During my stay at Royal Plantation I made sure to check out the resort's Spa services. The bride and I went together and decided on the Java Jive Body Scrub; said to remove cellulite and leave the skin renewed and glowing. Now the cellulite removal... I'm not too sure about that :) but the scrub definitely left us glowing from head to toe. Even today, a week later, I notice that my skin still feels extra smooth and has a clean glow to it. And if nothing else I think it's just good hygiene to shed all the layers of excess dead skin that build up over time as we make our way throught this concrete jungle everyday.

Marva hooked a sister up!!


lol goofing off

BLISS @ the W Hotel in Scottsdale, AZ


So like l said All Star Weekend isn't just all about parties, parties, basket ball games, celeb-sightings and more parties. I also got to check out the BLISS Spa located in the lobby of the W, Scottsdale. And after having a freaking ball at LeBrons party in club Myst on Friday night I really needed this juje!!

So I decided on the "Dew" Diligence Facial and the 1 1/2hr. Deep Tissue Sports Massage (hey I like it rough ok :) lol) ... and it was absolutely amazing
