Casa de Oro-Mount Helix, CA Spa and Massage

After enjoying a refined smoke on the cigar patio, you relax with a complimentary highball in front of a pair of LCD televisions, catching up on the Padres game with the right eyeball and the last 20 minutes of Quantum of Solace with the left. Soon, an attractive stylist calls you to the most sophisticated barber chair on earth for a trim, a lingering scalp massage, hot face towel, and straight-razor shave. A lovely manicurist tends to your extremities before you slip your feet into your freshly polished shoes. This kind of treatment used to be reserved for the likes of Hugh Hefner—until the arrival of AlphaMale barbershop and spa.

Hawaiian-print curtains welcome clients to Suki Day Spa's shabby-chic Fourth Avenue location, where bamboo screens flank cream-colored sofas in wicker or leather and a vast painting of a red blossom reflects punches of crimson in the throw pillows and fresh blooms. The long, lean space reaches beyond the plush pedicure chairs to a hallway with private rooms, where spa treatments such as massages, facials, and spray tans gloss clients' guises more effectively than daily slatherings of vaseline and glitter.

Today’s Groupon is the Silk Road that leads to a land of pampering. For $50, you get $125 worth of indulgent spa services at Sè Spa, an Asian-influenced, beautifully sleek relaxation oasis located at the Sè San Diego Hotel.
