Looking to unwind this summer but could do without the crowded beaches and pools? Then, Spa Castle in College Point offers the perfect escape at their five-story wellness destination.

The hidden gem, located at 131-10 11th Ave. in College Point has been in the neighborhood since 2006 offering a range of services from hydrotherapy pools, to massages, facials, and even more for guests to spend an entire day basking in self-care and getting a much needed reset from busy schedules and responsibilities.

Upon arriving at the venue, valet parking is available and during weekdays is offered free of charge and $8 on weekends. Guests are then invited to step into the lobby and check in for their visit. Reservations are not required to visit on the day, but it can make the check-in process more seamless. After showing ID and getting an electronic locker key, a day of indulgence is just behind the spa’s glass doors.
