FAQ's
I AM COMING TO BALD HEAD ISLAND FOR THE DAY:
HOW DO I GET TO THE SPA?
When you purchase a ferry ticket at Deep Point Marina, you may also request Tram Service directly to/from one location on the island. Call (910) 457-5003 to arrange tram reservations to the spa for your appointment. We recommend riding the ferry that is at least one hour prior to your spa appointments to avoid missing any treatment time!
ARE CHILDREN ALLOWED IN THE SPA?
We kindly request that children do not attend your treatments with you
unless they are also receiving treatments. We allow children ages 3-12 years old in the hair and nail salon only, and with parental supervision. Children ages 13-17 may receive massages or facials with parental consent, and
children 13-15 must have a parent present in the treatment room during service.
WHY AM I HAVING TROUBLE BOOKING MULTIPLE APPOINTMENTS IN THE APP?
Our App is designed for a single-user booking experience. When trying to book multiple appointments at the same time, we recommend contacting us via phone or e-mail.
I PURCHASED A CLASS PASS LAST SUMMER BUT CANNOT SEEM TO USE IT TO REGISTER FOR CLASSES NOW. WHY IS THAT?
5-Class and 10-Class Shareable Passes are valid for 6 months from purchase. If you purchased one last summer, you will no longer be able to use unused classes after 6 months have passed.
