Je suis habituée de fréquenter ce genre d'endroit, et j'ai absolument adoré celui-ci. Musique parfaite, température de la piscine parfaite, température du sauna parfaite, température de la douche froide parfaite. Tout était d'une propreté impeccable. Le savon de la douche au vestiaire laisse la peau très douce. Quelle excellente idée de nous fournir des nouilles de piscine pour se laisser flotter. J' ai hâte de voir les prochains ajouts prévus sur ce magnifique site loin de la route avec un boisé à l'arrière. Félicitations aux propriétaires, c'est très réussi!

C’était ma première fois à ce spa et j’ai été très agréablement surprise!! Wow! L’endroit est magnifique, le personnel est accueillant et les installations sont bien pensées. J’ai été à plusieurs endroits similaires pour l’expérience thermale et celle-ci est ma préférée je me considère chanceuse de vivre près. J’irais définitivement à nouveau.

What a wonderful experience!

We stayed in one of the Tiny Cabins as part of an Eastern Canada road trip, and we’re so glad we did. We booked the thermal journey for the evening and enjoyed the facilities before retreating to our cozy cabin for the night.

Having visited many spas throughout Quebec and Ontario, we can honestly say this was our favorite so far. We especially loved the warm pool with floating noodles. The saunas, cold shower, and plunge were also excellent. The Finnish sauna was the perfect temperature (nice and hot, but bearable) The thermal journey pricing was reasonable and felt in line with what was offered.

The landscaping and property is
beautiful and modern, and best part is that it wasn't crowded! I assume this is because Jolie Vie is still relatively new and gaining traction, but it was so nice to have a semi-private experience.

Some features were still under development, like the forest walking path, but the potential is surely there!

If we had one critique, it would be that the snack bar felt a bit lacking and highly priced (e.g., $8 for a small package of crackers), which is common at spas, but it would be great to see some healthy wraps, protein packs, or sandwiches offered in the future. It would also be convenient to have the option to charge purchases to your credit card on file so there is no need to run back to your locker.

One other suggestion: adding a hot tub or hot pool would make the thermal experience even better. The warm pool is lovely, but a hot tub would truly make the experience perfect.

Overall, we absolutely loved both the spa and the Tiny Cabin. Highly recommend booking both! Wishing Jolie Vie all the best as they continue to grow and expand! 🌊 🌿

My wife and I visited Jolie Vie after I had heard about it from someone at work. I had always been looking to try a Nordic style spa and the thermal cycle experience at Jolie Vie exceeded all my expectations.

The facility was setup perfectly and I felt at ease from the moment I walked in. The different options for every stage of the cycle were great. We tried both saunas but preferred the extra heat of the Finnish style sauna. I preferred the cold tub over the shower but my Wife enjoyed both. For the relaxation stage, the saltwater pool was definitely our go to but both the lounge area and the hammock areas are equally as relaxing.

It was a slightly overcast day and we even got a sprinkle of rain which added to the experience being out in the open air.

I highly recommend it as a great way to "fill your cup". We cannot wait to visit again.

Sadly a bit disappointed. I felt more stressed than relaxed.

A group of ladies were loudly talking and laughing in the pool so being outside was a total distraction from the relaxation experience. For the first three hours if my time there I was trying to avoid the noise they were making and whenever I would go somewhere else, like the sauna they would follow soon after.

The Finnish sauna was unfortunately out of service that day. I specifically came for that sauna.

I personally would have liked the water to be hotter, over 100 degrees but I guess thats just my preference.

Some other Nordik/ Thermal spas in Canada have a system where your wrist band is connected to your credit card so you don't have to go to your locker everytime you want to buy something, would be great if they implemented that one day.

Based on price I think it's overpriced for what it is, other larger Nordik/ Thermal spas are half the price to enter for the thermal experience and there are multiple hot tubs, pools and saunas as well as steam rooms which this spa is missing.

The thermal experience was amazing—beautiful, clean, and truly rejuvenating. The hot and cold cycles, paired with the peaceful ambiance, made for the perfect escape. The cabins are just as cozy and well-designed, making this a must-visit spot for relaxation. Highly recommend!

I love this place. It's beautiful, tranquil, and spotless. The staff are friendly and professional. There are numerous services available, from relaxing massages, to thermal cycling, to yoga and Essentrics. I wish there were more food options in the Cafe, and I wish they would offer to start a tab so I could leave my credit card in the locker. Still, I highly recommend as a place to recharge.
