Best New Spa Experience

Stylist and entrepreneur Melody Geer’s construction of a “comfortable, affordable urban bath” in East Nashville was well underway by the time the pandemic struck this year. Rather than indefinitely postponing plans for the Finnish-inspired Holiday Salon & Bathhouse, Geer & Co. decided to open the Douglas Avenue location with strict CDC-recommended distancing and sterilization guidelines in place, and the result is remarkable — a Zen-like retreat complete with Himalayan sea salt sauna, antimicrobial steam room, soaking pool, locker rooms and more. Book an appointment with one of Holiday’s hair, skin or massage experts, or rent out the bathhouse area with an intimate group for $200 for two hours. Pro tip: It makes for a great couple’s getaway.
