My ideal skin spa would be my own, with soothing colors and music, and specializing in antiaging and relaxation combined. I want to move to a town near my current location that has a huge tourism industry. They need more spas and my dream is to open one there and create tourism packages with the bed & breakfast inns. I want it to just be skin and massage, no hair or nails. Quiet and soothing.

I would like to work her - Honduras, Roatan (photo was taken in July 2013 at Infinity Bay Beach Resort and Spa), as a skincare professional at the resort. And on my free of work time, I would like to scubadive :).

I have a few...
Tahiti or Bora Bora in one of those little bungalows in the middle of the water. I think it would be really awesome to have a glass bottom floor to see fish and things like that. I would also settle for having this in Islamorada :).
Another idea, this would be local..
I would love to have a spa that has technology where either the client can change the theme of the room so they could be receiving treatment in the middle of a tropical island, jungle or rainforrest, mountains, snow, etc. The walls could be like movie screens and you could change the scene. I think this would be so awesome!

Dream to have a space that offers holistic/organic services along with Medi spa treatments. Same location but seperated. Close to a resort area or near water was always my vision. Allowing all males and females to feel comfortably welcome & relaxed as soon as they enter with neutral and minimal decor.

I've been thinking about this a lot since Carrie posted it. I really think that my work location is pretty close to my dream - it's a little jewelbox spa tucked away upstairs next to whole foods in an adorable trendy neighborhood. I have filled it with plants and pretty curtains and good smells and wonderful products and sweet, calm people. People are sometimes a little confused about finding it, but are always highly complimentary once they get up and into the spa. I get a lot of comments like, "I would have never know this was up here," which is actually OK with me. I sort of like being a secret destination. New signage is in the works to make us stand out more, though, and attract more business, so we will see how that goes.
I love the fact that our clients can enjoy healthy food, yoga and pilates, beautiful home and clothing boutiques, and more within a block or so. I like being part of a destination neighborhood.
Ideally the building owner would do a few big maintenance projects (gutters, etc.) that would improve the appearance of the exterior of the building. Additionally, someday I would also love to have a stairlift to make our services more accessible to everyone.
The challenge right now is just that I am there WAY too much. I'm working on that, but still trying to decide if I want to do certain types of business work outside of the physical location. I have noticed that I appreciate the physical aspects of my business a lot more when I am there a little less.
