Taste of Bliss: Our Ace Water Spa Experience

“With no much word to describe the soothing bliss I experienced while soaking myself on the bubble-filled tubs, the week of another taxing duties at work seemed to appear magically manageable. Why? Perhaps it’s what they call as starting the week right by relaxing exactly on the day when you don’t have time to do it!”

Those were my words way back in May 2011 when I first experienced the calming beauty that Ace Water Spa in Quezon City has given us. A year after — just last weekend actually — I was blessed to again spend the day in hydrotheraphy at Ace Water Spa, this time in Pasig branch. It’s way more special now because the girls, my two adorable friends, booked a reservation at a nearby hotel so we could spend the whole night chatting and eating and playing like carefree career women.

By admission, I am willing to substitute full body massage with this water therapy. Not only that my friends enjoyed our day together, it was a fulfillment of a long-time dream to get a break from work. Each bubble kneading my arm, back and leg, although gave some itching sensation after every session, satisfied my craving to loosen up the stress covering my body from head to foot! The plan was initially to treat Nica on her birthday in September but since she was away for quite a while, the schedule was moved to date very near to my birthday. So our girls’ day out served a double celebration, mine and Nica’s. We were all first timers in this branch and choosing this place to spend some quiet time together was a great, great idea. I saw the girls in bathers! History hardly ever recorded seeing them worn revealing clothes, so this day was epic! (Hahaha) It took several convincements before Nica came out from the shower area. I had to beg, make drama like I was crazily freezing so we need to rush to the pool area before she came out from her shell and walk with pride out from the ladies locker room.

I had several tries at the lap pool that pulled so much of my energy even before the four-hour allotted time to stay at the spa was over. I was starving already and asked the girls to check out and have dinner. Although deep inside I was sure they would have wanted to stay longer, still they granted my stomach’s wish to eat. But well I didn’t put them down — I showed how hungry I was then by consuming almost 3 cups of rice at Tokyo Tokyo! The two were relaxing totally at the spa and I was busy reaching the edge of the pool back and forth and so I burned the most calories, did I not? (Hahaha)

At the hotel, we barely exchanged words. Well, Des shared a bit of her stories and Nica too, but few minutes after, everyone was defenselessly dozed off. It was a dream-come-true day for the three of us. we happily shared this event to each other as a celebration of an awesome friendship back to the old days and beyond.
