Under separate ownership, The Spa ((707) 942-4056) is tucked into a detached part of the motel. It offers an extravaganza of treatments, including a soothing and detoxifying mud wrap using several kinds of clay, local milled grape seeds, and local volcanic ash. (This is different from the traditional mud bath available at some other places in town, where you actually climbs into a tub full of volcanic ash mud. In this case, the creamy mud feels like wax and is applied by an attendant.) Local grape seeds are also used in a foot renewal treatment, and an oxygen facial infuses effervescent oxygen and peptides into the skin for a firming treatment.
