Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

D is exceptionally professional, committed and innovative. Despite Lockdown she continues to keep our skin healthy and vibrant with useful tips and a regular blog. In Lockdown she is offering a virtual skincare appointment, I cannot recommend this enough. I had a virtual appointment today, it was fabulous! I wasn’t too sure of what to expect and how it would go. In preparation I laid out my products and various samples that I have as an on-going client (otherwise D will provide a bespoke pack for you), I really valued being able to talk over the suitable products to be using at this time of year with my skin type and in the heat. Once we discussed and established the regime to follow D modelled how to apply each product and how to best work/massage into the skin for optimum results. I now have a tailored am and pm regime to follow, I did have a am and pm routine prior of course but now I KNOW exactly how to apply each product and how to switch it up for maximum benefit to help reach my desired goals. For me, that is always healthy skin, hydration and anti ageing. It was so great to be able to copy D modelling what to do, especially being such a visual learner 😀 I now feel very confident in knowing what products to use, when to use them but ultimately how to apply them for maximum results whilst giving myself a mini facial, result! I also took advantage of the offer on a new product (Biolumin-C Serum, which I am L♥️VING). We are all experiencing different ways of living right now and this is one experience that I can absolutely highly recommend and your skin will love you for it too. Thank you D 💃💃💃

Orchids Retreat is a wonderful beauty treatment room in the tranquil sailing town of Lymington. Its the perfect place for beauty treatments ranging from facials, massages, manicures, waxing services, and so many other options to feel pampered!
After a long flight traveling to England, a facial was a refreshing pick me up! The exfoliating treatment and relaxing ambiance are exactly what I needed. I have also tried the waxing treatments and was so impressed with the Australian Body Care system. Wax beads are placed in a small tin (new for each client) and melted. Fascinating, I have never seen a system like this in the US!!
Diana's experience and vast knowledge are evident in the high level of professionalism and careful attention to detail she provides. The retreat is so calm, relaxing, and pristine clean! I look forward to returning the next time I travel to Lymington.

I booked in for a massage, I can very highly recommend Diana, she has thumbs of steel. Started the appointment a bit sore, finished all relaxed and able to move again. Very professional lady who is full of helpful information. She totally knows her stuff. Can't wait for next appointment with her.

I went to see Diana at Orchids Retreat for a back and shoulder wax having found out about her success and award as Britain's top Beautician from a friend of mine that also goes. The place is lovely and Diana is friendly and a true professional. Having previously had issues with my skin after waxing she used a wax that didn't cause any irritation and talked me through the correct aftercare for my skin too. She's bagged herself a customer for life. I'd thoroughly recommend her to anyone seeking the therapies/treatments she offers.

I have had the most amazing massage by Lauren. It was an emergency one as I’d hurt my back. I went in crooked and came out straight. From a lot of pain to a bare tickle. She was amazing. I would thoroughly recommend her. She also has a very calming voice which I think helps.
Well done.
Well done.

Diane and her amazing team, hosted an afternoon of treatments, fizz and afternoon treats for my girlfriends and I. They were so welcoming and kind, with their care and time. Diane went absolutely over and above to ensure we had an amazing time and made us feel so special.

I haven't actually had a massage at Orchid, but I wanted to say how incredibly helpful Diana was in organising a gift voucher for my sister-in-law. She created a unique voucher, just for me, and hand-delivered it to the address I gave her. Fantastic service and I hope my sis-in-law enjoys the treatment!

Diana is an extremely friendly and professional masseuse. Her back neck and shoulder deep tissue massage felt really thorough and left both me and my partner feeling really relaxed and invigorated. It's obvious that she is highly trained. Would come again.

This really was a find, Diana is great at her job! I had some aches having been on my feet every day for work and 90 minutes later Diana had massaged them away brilliantly in a relaxing and soothing environment. In Lymington I wouldn't now see a need to go anywhere else.
