Japanese Spa Experience at Shoji Spa Asheville

My spouse and I recently did the DUO Special (private outdoor saltwater tub, sauna) + couples massages at Soji Spa and it was easily one of the best spa experiences we’ve ever had! ​The booking process was seamless—we were able to get in the same day, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The entire visit felt perfectly organized and never rushed. The location itself is beautiful; our private hot tub had excellent jets and the soak was deeply relaxing. We loved the cedar sauna and the variety of refreshments available (the coconut water was great, and they also have tea, juices, and even wine/chocolate packages). The whole atmosphere felt so peaceful, serene, and spotlessly clean. ​After a nice 15-minute transition to refresh, we moved into our massages. As someone who deals with tightness from a desk job and soreness from recent hikes, this was exactly what I needed. The therapists were so thoughtful, asking about our pressure preferences and focus areas to truly customize the session. Kendall performed my massage, and her hands were magical—I left feeling lighter and completely relaxed. Being able to shower afterward and leave feeling clean and rejuvenated was the perfect finishing touch. 10/10 experience; we will absolutely be back next time we’re in Asheville!

We visited for my husband’s birthday and had an incredible experience from start to finish. The level of service was exceptional, and the friendly, welcoming staff made the day truly memorable. Sarah was an absolute pleasure and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. My massage therapist was amazing—one of the best massages I’ve ever had. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!

Staff was welcoming and showed great care to answer all of our question about our soak! We greatly enjoyed that our private bath area was clean and inviting. For the bath itself, (I was told) it utilized a salt water system. Either way, there was no “chemical” smell that can be associated with hot tubes and left out skin smooth and soft. I would highly recommend Shoji for those looking for a place to relax and or relieve muscle aches after hiking all day!

We had an amazing experience at Shoji. Our room was comfortable and pleasant with a comfy bed (House of Wind). We did the Buddahs Best service with a one hour tub, 90 min massage, and 30 min Savasana with was amazing. Erik and Andrew who did our massages were literally the best message therapists we have ever had. Will 100% be back!
