Best saunas in Indianapolis: find options near you

Paid for floatation therapy session and sauna session but when I finished the float tank session they said they couldn’t find anywhere in their system that I had a sauna session, they said they couldn’t do anything for me including refund so I had to just let it go after arguing with them for a while. Haven’t went back since. Definitely an expensive float session and costly mistake coming here!

Over all great experience. After our pick 3 package I felt alive and energized. The cryotherapy hurt a little at first, but it’s worth it to hang in there. I’ve never felt so rejuvenated. The workers there were amazingly friendly and very knowledgeable. They helped answer questions and calmed any anxieties. Very clean and professional place. Would love to visit again!

The FLOAT therapy (A TUB CAPSULE FULL WITH SALT) might be so amazing but the experience at the office was really impersonal. I received this as a gift for my 26th anniversary gift, and I was there for the first time, I was recommended to do it for all the benefits but when I went there, I was not sure what to do and what to expect. The office was nicely decorated, the staff was prompt to assist but there was something missing. I think the price was not bad, but my opinion is that a little more effort in connect with the customer and more explanation is needed and will be very appreciated.

Staff is very friendly and accommodating, and the facility is well kept inside. The infrared sauna has been great. I knocked off a star because the office itself is so hard to find (look for the office that says Accupuncture/Chiropractor). Need better overhead signage.

Very professional and great staff. They offer many services to optimize health and wellness. I did the infrared sauna, normatech, and cryotherapy. Also had an alignment, dry needling, and soft tissue massage with the doctor. It really helped with my knee and lower back pain. 10/10 facility highly recommended.

I love this place.

Most effective weekly combination:
enjoy infrared sauna, cool down with 30-60 minutes of Norma Tech, then cryotherapy.

My skin glows, my eyes are brighter.
Reduced inflammation and tension.
Little pains and injuries I thought were chronic have disappeared.
Massive improvement in running and stamina.
I sleep like a baby.
Overall sense of calm and rejuvenation.
Incredible.

And if you’re a little apprehensive, the staff is informed and inviting. Fantastic customer service overall.

Highly recommended and great experience overall! Staff is very friendly, attentive and caring. I tried the infrared sauna on this first visit and walked away thoroughly impressed – will definitely be returning for more sauna as well as trying the other treatments/services too!

Wow…. You will NEVER GO WRONG buying from Family Leisure. NEVER.

First of all, it was my mistake – that we made 5+ years ago… yes… 5 PLUS… we purchased an awesome Vuly springless trampoline from Family Leisure in Atlanta and decided we wanted to get bells and whistles and ordered a tent for the top. We ordered the wrong size… We asked if we could return it and they said no problem… long story short, years passed, 4 moves to 4 states later, we found it in the garage with 4 moving stickers slapped on the box. We emailed and said, “heyyyyy, remember us?”

We shipped it on our dime (I mean – it’s been years) and boom – a refund check is mailed to our new address! What an amazing example of top notch customer service. We even offered to just have credit if they wouldn’t / couldn’t refund. Their willingness to even entertain our return/ exchange is significant.

We are lifelong customers – I’m gonna check out their website to see what else we can buy (and never return)!

Happy shopping!

I am writing this review to express my satisfaction with Family Leisure from day one. We bought an above ground pool 3 years ago and I can honestly say that we have been very well taken care of. From sales to service, we have never been disappointed. Great business to work with … Thank you Family Leisure in Indianapolis!.

Family Leisure was so easy to work with and our Berlin Gardens pavilion turned out amazing!!! Highly recommend the privacy wall and the onyx and cedarwood color combination!

Great place for outdoor furniture. We purchased a set for our 3 season room and love it and 2 chase chairs for our patio.

Anthony and Christian were AMAZING!!! They always go above and beyond to ensure we are satisfied but most importantly they share their knowledge of pool maintenance. Thank you guys for taking such good care of us!

Let’s start at the beginning when the delivered our product and the ladder has sharp section that could puncture the lining, and they were scratched terribly all over and dirty. I was told they would replace them which didn’t happen till installation, which was a nightmare in itself. We recorded this whole process where they missed spreading the powder lime(I pretty sure that’s what it was) I was told to get to purchase to help save us from damages caused by mole, voles, and such. They also continued to ignore the calls Mark was making to them because I called him myself with concerns of how this installation was going. The top ledge was bowing and not straight either when finished. If a female can tell things are wrong and off that says something. Again we recorded the whole thing. They did not mist the sand so every foot print is felt, still after it was filled, that they made wile putting liner in. The steps arrive later and I was giving grace where I could. But I feel I got a cheep job of installation even paying more for them having to dig more than the standard. Mark was to have someone come check the pool when we opened it this summer, as I told him it’s so bumpy on the bottom. I am just not happy on all this and now I feel the poor installation made it less sturdy and stable.

We had an awesome experience with Family Leisure when purchasing our first hot tub! Mike was fantastic! He helped us from start to finish with the entire process. We had so many questions and he was available to answer them all! The hot tub came sooner than we expected and was delivered and ready to use the next day! Highly recommend Family Leisure and Mike!

I had a great experience at The Hot Room! I attended a class with my friend who is a member, the studio was super clean, and everyone there was welcoming and friendly from the moment we walked in. We took the hot Pilates class with David, and he was an awesome instructor, very knowledgeable, encouraging, and really helpful throughout the class correcting form and pushing attendees to power through challenging moments. Being a gym owner myself, I truly appreciate a serious challenge. I work out 3-5 times a week and still found this class to be tough in the best way. Highly recommend checking it out if you’re looking to switch up your fitness routine, feel strong & accomplished, or just push yourself in a new way!

Hey all! For nearly a decade, The Hot Room in downtown Indianapolis has been my sanctuary for transformation. Their welcoming community and diverse classes have not only inspired me to embrace a healthier lifestyle but also empowered me to share this journey with family, colleagues and fellow travel nurses. The Hot Room’s commitment to inclusivity and well-being is truly life-changing. If you haven’t been there yet, or if it’s been a while, maybe it’s time to check this studio out 

Cannot recommend the Hot Room enough!! I moved to Indy recently and was looking for a studio with a variety of classes & class times – specifically a studio that offered both a challenging hot pilates class and yoga. Hot Room offers both, along with ice baths which I’m excited to try. The music is great, instructors are super friendly and it’s centrally located. My favorite classes are hot inferno pilates and hot yoga sculpt!!

I have been consistently attending classes for almost a year now and I love it. I try to go 3-4 times a week and the variety of classes is amazing and I can feel mysef getting stronger and over time I have been able to go further in my practice. I have attended classes with a variety of instructors and have never been disappointed. The staff is super friendly and they truly do welcome all levels! I cannot recommend The Hot Room more!!

I have recently been going to the Hot Room to do cold plunges and I’ve been really impressed with them. The staff is super friendly, knowledgeable and they have really clean / modern tubs as well as locker rooms. Seems like a great community but for sure can highly recommend a plunge here – they have 40, 45, and 50 degree tubs.

I absolutely love the Hot Room downtown! I have been going here for around a month and it is very easy to get into classes and they have a generous cancellation time of 6 hours just in case something comes up! Every class is very personalized and the music is amazing. I have recommended my friends to come here and would advise anyone to try it out!

The hot room has been such a godsend to me- the teachers and staff are incredible, the studios are so clean and well kept, and has been such a pivotal part of increasing my confidence and calming me through those stressful moments life throws at you. I love the way I feel after class- I love how sweating makes me feel so cleansed and refreshed. It’s such a “yogi high” feeling when I leave. The words of encouragement and positivity from the teachers def make the classes incomparable to any other yoga classes I have ever gone to.

Not only are the routes incredible, but the staff is super helpful, and the gym is massive. Everything is thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail—handwashing station next to the bouldering wall, tape and a first aid shelf nearby, phone stands for filming your climbs, and free tampons in the restroom. I absolutely love this place!

North Mass Boulder is more than just a climbing gym—it’s a dynamic space that caters to a variety of fitness and lifestyle needs. Whether you’re looking for an engaging workout, a place to study, or a welcoming community, this facility has something for everyone.

For fitness enthusiasts, North Mass Boulder offers a range of workout classes, including options for families, making it a great place for people of all ages and skill levels. The bouldering terrain varies in difficulty, providing a fun and challenging experience for both beginners and seasoned climbers.

College students and remote workers will appreciate the upstairs private area, perfect for studying or getting work done in a focused environment. Plus, the healthy café and bar, featuring rotating local beer taps, make it easy to refuel after a session. The Top Out Café serves up nutritious and delicious food, adding to the gym’s well-rounded experience.

With its combination of fitness, community, and convenience, North Mass Boulder offers an innovative and enjoyable way to stay active. Whether you’re climbing, working out, or simply unwinding in the lounge, this space is designed to inspire and energize.

Highly recommend!

This is probably the best overall bouldering gym I’ve been to.
The staff was friendly
the facility was clean
The routes were varied, creative and fun

On top of that they have a large cardio section, a nice weightlifting area, and a large clean bathroom.

Highly recommend checking this place out

I have been going to North Mass Boulder ever since it opened. The bouldering routes are both fun and challenging. In my experience, the general atmosphere/culture is very welcoming and all the staff are friendly. I never enjoyed group fitness classes in the past, but thought I would give North Mass classes a try and now I’m hooked! The wide variety of fitness and yoga classes available is so nice. Shout out to Jordyn Dorsey! Her Strength & Conditioning classes are my favorite!

The place to boulder if you want to meet people. There is a ton of people every weekday evening and still a lot of people during the weekend as well. The membership is slightly expensive ($75/month), but if you attend the yoga and dance classes like me, it is so worth it.

Update (4/22/2024): Always a good place to attend the events. There were probably 300+ people climbing and talking.

Fun place to be with decent facilities, but some of the staff is rude and dismissive. For claiming to be a place that is welcoming to all, some team members seem openly annoyed with concerns and can treat members like inconveniences.

I sent an email outlining some concerns and the reply was littered with harmful rhetoric, bordering on Ableism and Classism. It’s the best space of its kind in the area, but the ethos seems to only be skin deep in certain cases.

You’ll have a blast if you keep to yourself, bring your own towel, and don’t bother the staff. Happy climbing!

Edited to add: Christian (glasses, long hair) is an excellent employee; so genuinely kind and engaging! Thanks, Christian!

It was my first time rock climbing and I loved it! There was so many courses to choose from. The atmosphere in there is amazing and it feels clean. The staff is really nice.

Was treated to Woodhouse for a birthday surprise. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I had a wonderful relaxing time. They even brought me a birthday treat! I also needed to pump while I was there, and they told me to do it in the salt room so I could enjoy another treatment free of charge. Being postpartum, this was the perfect relaxation. My massage therapist was fantastic and all of the staff made me feel special. Thank you!

Amazing experience! I treated myself to the Head-to-Toe Relaxation Package, which includes a massage, facial, and pedicure, for my birthday. This was my first time visiting Woodhouse Spa plus my first time getting a facial and a pedicure. The atmosphere is perfect for calm and relaxation; each treatment felt incredible; the staff were so kind – they even surprised me with a little birthday treat in between sessions! I would highly recommend a visit if you’re looking for a way to recharge and relax. It’s well worth the price (which, honestly, it very reasonable for the expertise and treatment you receive).

Woodhouse Spa in Bottleworks is amazing. All of the staff are absolutely wonderful. They create a calm and peaceful atmosphere and it’s very welcoming. Jessica gave me a great pedicure. I selected the seasonal option and was very pleased. Jessica is lovely. I felt comfortable chatting with her as well as relaxing in silence, perfect balance. I came in for my birthday and the spa made me feel extra special. This is my favorite spa, I’ve had AMAZING massages and look forward to experiencing all the services they offer.

Parker did a great job with my massage, it was very relaxing. He was also able to give me helpful tips regarding where most of my tension was. Moriah was extremely helpful in teaching me how to care for my dry skin. Her facial had my face looking hydrated and dewy. It’s been almost a week taking her advice and my skin looks amazing! I will be back to see both of them.

This was my first visit to Woodhouse Spa and I plan to return. Beautiful, clean areas. Felt private. The staff did not oversell me. I was initially scheduled for a more advanced facial, but after consulting with me, the specialist recommended a less intensive, purifying facial and I feel fantastic. Was able to leave and run errands immediately afterward. Thank you all for personalizing the experience and tailoring to my needs.

Wow wow WOW! This spa experience was wonderful. The place was beautiful, smelled nice, and the staff were friendly.
✨Highlight #1: The new manager Sade (yes like the artist) is a GEM! I needed help because it was Labor Day weekend and she went above and beyond. She was personable, professional, and made my experience amazing!
✨Highlight #2: My massage therapist C is woooooow. I sometimes get tight in my shoulders and back and he worked real magic. He was so attentive, could adjust the pressure, and fun to talk to the whole time. I can’t wait to schedule him again.
Anytime I’m in Indianapolis, I’ll be coming here. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Another exceptional experience at Woodhouse Spa BottleWorks! As a loyal guest for over 10 years, I can confidently say this location has maintained the high standards I’ve come to expect over my 2+ years visiting here. Today’s facial with Kelci was absolutely wonderful – she was knowledgeable, attentive, and tailored the treatment perfectly to my skin’s needs. My skin feels refreshed and glowing! The entire staff went above and beyond, especially when helping me select the right aftercare products to maintain my results at home. Highly recommend this location for anyone seeking a relaxing, professional spa experience.

This gym offers a comprehensive range of amenities to meet all your fitness and relaxation needs. From state-of-the-art machines and a fully equipped weight area to a soothing sauna, refreshing pool, and steam room, every detail is designed for your comfort. Enjoy engaging classes, dedicated locker rooms, and clean showers, all crafted to provide a complete wellness experience.

I love Lifetime gym! The ammeties are great and you can do just about anything you can think of for heath and wellness. It’s been a wonderful club for getting healthy and even having just relaxing “spa days”!

The lifetime I normally go to is under remodel. And let me start off by saying the staff at both are great always kind and on it. But I’m about ready to cancel and move on. The gym is strangely organized. But I can deal with that. But why do you have a class on Friday mornings with a handful of people in the middle of the gym. Its called Alpha and the only thing Alpha about it is the extremely loud instructor. I get classes but why don’t they have over the ear heaphones for the instructor to talk to them. I’m not the only one who is irritated by it, just have a staff member walk around and ask during it like I did. I’ll also say that the class in the treadmill area isn’t like that, its not as loud and its softened by the walls. You would think the large classroom would be big enough to run a line of squat racks down it for the class. Unfortunately for us who have jobs that start at certain times we can’t change to accomodate. So leaving is likely the only option.

Best selection of machines I’ve seen compared to most Lifetime locations. This location is a little dated in some regards, but overall a great location.

There is no massive open area upstairs like most locations, but instead that area is full of equipment and machines. I like how they utilized the space to accommodate more strength training. Well maintained equipment and good experience overall.

** Update** Of the last 6 weeks the lap pool has been more closed than open. On Monday June 30th they closed the lap pool at 8:45am because it had no chlorine and they were out of shock. At this point, it’s pure neglect, fraud and incompetence.
T
he lap pool has now been closed for over 2 weeks and it’s not even posted on the app or any notifications at all. When asked when it will be repaired, the answer I got was, “As soon as possible”, but no indication of how long that will be. The lap pool is the ONLY reason I’m a member here. Since new management took over about a year ago it has been downhill overall. I’d love to hear from SOMEONE about recent shortcomings in service overall. I won’t hold my breath though. Maybe it’s time to replace the new general manager with one that actually shows up and cares about the club and members.

I used to love this place as its the perfect location to where I live. I was going back in 2016 and lost a ton of weight here, loved it as it was 24/7 as well and I was paying $60 a month but left as I wasnt close anymore.

I joined again in Oct. 2024 at $99 a month and was happy enough, it wasnt 24/7 anymore and the basketball courts were gone for pickleball courts, which was a bummer. I added my wife to my account, but eventually she couldnt go. I asked back in may/early june about removing her and they stated I would be put at $110 a month so it would be cheaper for both if she stayed, i confirmed with her and asked about it again about 3 weeks later and now the price was at $120/mo.

It got me thinking that for what I use there, im just not using enough to justify this price and my insurance will discount other Gyms in the area. Its a real shame cause this place has helped change my life with weightloss twice in my life, but these price increases and reduced availability has soured the experience.

By far the most I’ve spent on a gym membership, only went here for the amenities. They’re all good but you could drive 10 minutes towards Carmel and pay half the price for the same stuff. Still a great gym though, they have a lot of exclusive features for their gym. I give them that, overall good!

Did the halotherapy as well as the fire ice experience. Feeling amazing, relaxed. 2 hours of grounding. Affordable for a once a week or every other week relaxation time. Thanks!

The perfect unique experience to relax. The staff were so friendly. Beautiful location. Will definitely share with friends & we will be back!

Love it! The sauna is great and so is the salt cave. The staff are super nice and it has a very relaxing, calm vibe. They sell some cool products, too.

I would give this place 10 stars if I could! I can’t say enough good things. It was my first time there today and I did the hour long fire & ice treatment and let me tell you it felt so good and was so tranquil. You have the hut all to yourself and they provide you with everything you need while you’re there! This will definitely be something in my wellness routine.

Welcoming and helpful staff. We enjoyed the 45 minutes of total relaxation in the salt cave! Will be going back to experience the other packages they offer.

Experienced the 45 minute salt cave. Very relaxing and enjoyable experience. You are given a warm salt stone to put on areas of pain or discomfort. The chairs are comfortable but could be slightly better for taller individuals. I am 6’3″ and was comfortable but it could’ve been better.
I would say it was worth $40 for the experience and a relaxing 45 minute nap. I’d probably go again

What a wonderful experience. I was watching Fox59 and they were doing a segment on the cave . I immediately called to ask about their services. Top notch customer service. Many different things to choose from in the gift area. I choose the hand and foot detoxification for my fiance and I. We’d like to do the sauna next time.

Amber and Cree, the massage ladies gave me an amazing massag. The massage felt amazing. I’m a FedEx driver, I definitely needed great treatment. Me and my girlfriend had an amazing experience and good time. Professional and friendly. Definitely worth booking them.

I planned a bachelorette trip and we got massages. This place was amazing! The staff is so friendly and skilled at what they do. This was a great experience and all the girls had a fantastic time! Highly recommend

My mom and I had an amazing experience here. Our massage was literally amazing. We felt so pampered. It was really a spiritual experience. 10/10 amazing

Had an awesome session with Amber—she seriously did an amazing job. I’m a powerlifter, so my body’s taken a beating over the years, but after her massage, I felt like a brand new person. She really knew how to dig into the tight spots without overdoing it, and I walked out feeling lighter, looser, and way more relaxed. Easily one of the best massages I’ve had. I’ll for sure be booking with her again next time I’m in town.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow! That was incredible. Amber hit every point perfectly, I couldn’t believe how good I felt afterward. Hands down the best massage experience I’ve ever had!

Thank you lady’s for a wonderful massage before we hit the town for our anniversary.
It was a relaxing experience.

Amber gave me the best massage I’ve ever had. In fact, I fell in love with her during my 90min session and asked for her hand in marriage. THAT’S HOW GOOD SHE IS!!! In short, don’t question it, just book an appointment with her right now.

I read their web page before I went, therefore I chose not to bring anything, had no problem to get in. The staff was nice and friendly.
I wish they had a “bigger” dark room(s)/maze and glory hole area and probably a smaller gym/work out zone.
Over all, it is clean and I was happy.

I visited this place a couple of days ago, and I’ve never been in one of these so I didn’t know what to expect. It was clean, condoms were accessible everywhere, and it felt very safe. I have never had so much fun in a space of 4 hours. I wish I lived closer. I’d be in here every other day.

First time visiting. It was fun! Staffies were nice. Awesome to see them constantly cleaning. They shut down the wet area for about 30 minutes to clean, which was awesome.

The eye candy and activities are fun but I like the spa-ish part of it mostly. Wish they had bade pools and element sauna rooms.

It’s funny to watch the guests walk in & out of the steam rooms like they are trying to find a lost contact lens or a missing puppy. They walk in, look around to see if anyone sexy is in there and then leave again.

Can’t really give too much insight about this place other than the few Uber passengers I’ve dropped off here . The 2 or 3 guys I’ve picked up / dropped off here were speaking highly about the establishment and all I took from the conversation is it’s a male-only gym . Never been inside but it looks empty as all get out whenever I’ve had a ride share here . That’s why my rating is only a 3-star , because I’m simply judging off the optics of the building and the foot traffic I’ve witnessed .

Sad there is no hot tub, as that’s my favorite hangout spot. The outdoor patio area is nice, and it’s clear portions of the place have been recently renovated (back restrooms/showers and the dry sauna). Was a bit too cold and the crowd was nonexistent last night. Maybe we picked a bad day. After a single encounter I opted to sleep in the room because I was too cold to take my clothes back off. Nice facilities and the staff were quite welcoming.

the wonderful place is my third time in the place the first two times I came with a friend who knows English since we are Latinos everything was fine we decided to come two friends and I this time the cashiers made fun of us because we could not understand we were not informed that we could be in the rooms that we also paid the most expensive and they did not give the information at the wrong time also while they were charging my friend and I the same as we paid at the beginning for the rooms they were making fun of us this is a robbery to this place I do not come again and what a shame that these people make this place that I like so much decline in attention and remind your colleagues at the cashiers that I also pay taxes, I work and contribute to this country and they also owe us respect

It is freezing there turn off AC I never been to a sauna that has AC running in corridors and rooms !

Thank you to Derek Kitchen for helping us to order, install and after for our Royal Spa. He told me to text him at any time. We are at two years and still loving it! Thanks to his expertise and customer service. He’s always been there. The office staff is wonderful too. When I call in they are always helpful. Highly recommend!

We went to Royal Spa June 2024 to look at purchasing a hot tub. We encountered Todd, the salesman. Todd was great in showing us different spas on the showroom floor. He was very informative. We told him we were going to look at another store “down the street” to see what they had. Todd said “I understand but you will be back!” Within 30 minutes we were back. When walking into the “other” store, the staff just pointed in the direction of the hot tubs. No customer service at all. Since that return visit to Royal Spa and subsequent purchase of a hot tub, Todd has been there every step of the way. His communication is top notch. He has been instrumental in hot tub chemistry education for me. I highly recommend if you are interested in purchasing a tub/spa, go to Royal Spa on Pendleton Pike and speak to Todd. You will be treated with respect.

Everyone that we have talked with at Royal Spa has been incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Jay and Alex were awesome! We purchased a Royal Spa hot tub as part of a backyard oasis/pool project. It was the easiest and smoothest part of our project by a long shot!

Got my hot tub a week ago, still unable to use it. First, sales rep never returned my calls or emails as promised to discuss chemicals. Had to Google everything on my own. Then my filter stopped working. Tried calling service for the last 3 days but can’t get anyone to pick up.

Huge thanks to Todd Johnson at the Pendleton Pike store. We recently purchased a new Royalty II (after owning our previous Royalty II for 22 years). We were having some chemical balance issues with the new one where the water was turning cloudy. Todd was able to shoot me in the right direction with some corrective methods that have now cleared the water to it’s majestical beauty. Thank You, Todd.

I am not in the habit of writing on-line reviews for service calls to my home, regardless of whether or not the service was: Great Service, Poor Service, or anything in-between. In fact, I cannot remember the last time I had left an on-line review. With the recent service call I received from Kevin P. @ Royal Spa on October 30, 2024, I decided to make an exception to my ‘rule.’

Kevin arrived at my home to address an issue re: hot tub. He promptly introduced himself, explained why he was there, and what it was he was hoping to accomplish to get my hot tub functional again. Kevin was extremely polite, friendly, respectful, helpful and extremely knowledgeable in his craft. I immediately knew Kevin is a worker who ‘loves what he does!’ This was apparent in his enthusiastic and positive attitude! At every step of the way, Kevin kept me informed of what the problem was, along with other potential issues he noted in the control panel of the hot tub.

As I have some difficulty in hearing, Kevin was patient & understanding to make sure I heard & understood what he was doing during this repair. Additionally, Kevin also showed me some things that were never told to me by the set-up personnel from Royal Spa (4 years ago), nor any service specialist prior to Kevin!!!

Upon Kevin’s departure, I thanked him for his kindness, respectfulness & knowledge. I also stated to Kevin that I would be asking specifically or him for any future service calls (if/when necessary) from Royal Spa! In my opinion, workers like Kevin are few & far between.

Kevin defines what Customer Service is & can teach courses on the subject. Royal Spa has a “keeper” employee!!

Our hot tub is AMAZING! And Derek did a wonderful job explaining everything to us and allowing customization and the delivery team was great too! Thank you! We have used it every day!
