Think relaxation, and a yearning for THE Spa will probably follow soon after. The Spa has an extensive selection of massages from the classics (Swedish, Shiatsu, Deep Tissue, etc) to the more unique (Volcanic Rock, Oriental Acupressure, etc).

They also have beautifying treatments you can indulge in – whether you need the basic services of nail care and waxing, or the more elaborate facials and scrubs.

Mandarine Spa is fairly simple compared to the majority of luxurious spas in this roundup. But what they lack in opulence, they definitely make up for in service. Plus, here’s a spa that your wallet will love.

They specialize in a Chinese-style foot reflexology, which many travel all the way to Alabang for. While your feet soak in warm water, other parts of your body are given proper attention. And when it’s your feet’s turn, your masseuse will definitely address your problematic pressure points.
