World Spa is a lavish 50,000-square-foot super spa in Brooklyn’s Midwood neighborhood that offers a unique circuit of rejuvenating bathing rituals from around the globe. The spa includes Turkish and Moroccan tiled hammams, a Himalayan salt room, Finnish saunas, Japanese onsen pools, Eastern European banyas, saltwater swimming pools, and a Jacuzzi. With more than a dozen cultural experiences, guests can also enjoy massages, facials, body scrubs, and an excellent on-site restaurant. Visitors can spend four hours at World Spa and feel like they have traveled on a vacation.
The experience at World Spa begins with booking an appointment online and arriving 30 minutes before the scheduled time to check in at the front desk, change into a swimsuit, and shower in the clean locker room. Guests who forget their swimsuits can purchase black bikinis, one-pieces, and comfy slides at the front desk. The facility provides hooded cotton robes, towels, and toiletries for its visitors. Many people start their journey at one of the kelo-wood banyas, said to improve circulation, stimulate the immune system, and open the respiratory system.
Guests at World Spa can enjoy a range of unique therapies, including sweating in the aromatic banyas, rinsing off in icy showers, experiencing the infrared sauna room, and relaxing in the detoxifying Himalayan salt room. The cold plunge pool provides a refreshing dip between therapies, and visitors can cycle through cold, warm, and hot onsen pools inspired by Japanese hot springs. The spa also offers private treatments and IV therapies, adding to the overall wellness experience.
The on-site restaurant at World Spa serves a variety of dishes ranging from poke bowls to burgers, as well as cocktails and wine. The spa offers two types of passes: general admission and the VIP Experience, which includes full-day entry and access to the Birch & Oak Members Club. There are also memberships available with unlimited entries and various perks, starting at $1,777 for three months. Visitors can enhance their experience by booking a 50-minute private treatment, which includes additional access to the spa.
