Highway 1 route through Vancouver Island countryside near Ladysmith and Nanaimo

Japanese Head Spa Serving Ladysmith Residents

A quick 25-minute drive north on Highway 1 from Ladysmith — Flamingo House Spa brings authentic Japanese head spa sessions to the Cowichan Valley region.

Why Ladysmith Guests Visit Us

Ladysmith is a charming historic town on the 49th parallel, known for its hillside character and the Ladysmith Maritime Society marina. While the town has plenty of local charm, there's no authentic Japanese head spa in the Cowichan Valley. Flamingo House Spa in Nanaimo fills that gap — our Ladysmith guests drive north on Highway 1, passing through the rolling farmland south of Nanaimo, and arrive at our Dufferin Street studio ready for a session that feels worlds away from their daily routine. Several regulars from Ladysmith tell us they look forward to the 25-minute drive as a chance to mentally switch gears before and after their appointment.

Directions from Ladysmith

From Ladysmith, head north on the Trans-Canada Highway (Highway 1) toward Nanaimo — roughly 25 minutes. Follow signs for Nanaimo City Centre, then take the Northfield Road exit to reach 951 Dufferin Street. Free parking available on site.

What Guests Love

Thoughtful touches at every turn — a warm greeting, chocolate and a choice of beverage, aromatherapy scent selection, and a charm gift to take home. With a perfect 5-star rating from 218+ reviews, our Ladysmith guests consistently say the drive up from the Cowichan Valley is absolutely worth it.
