M Resort-Spa Mio
Spa Director – Kate Wind

Kate runs the show at the beautiful 30,000 square foot Spa Mio salon, spa and fitness center. Living the spa life at the M Resort means enjoying tranquility with a spectacular view of the resort pool and the skyline of the Las Vegas Strip. Spa Mio offers 16 treatment rooms with steam, sauna, hot tub wet areas, a full-service salon and state-of-the-art fitness center.

1. People love the M; tell us about life at the end of the strip.
   We don’t look at our location as a disadvantage instead we look at it as an advantage. We aren’t in the heart of all the hustle and bustle so guests can park right outside the resort and walk in quickly. We’re a Four Star rated spa and salon, one of only 108 in the world, so guests are going to receive personalized service and “Strip-quality” amenities, but in a convenient location with affordable price points.
   
   We know our spa is a little farther away for some people so our goal is to provide a one-of-a- kind, service-oriented experience to make it worth the drive. It’s all about the little things – recognizing our guests by name, remembering what they liked, recommending things to enhance their experience – it’s the personal touches that our guests remember.

2. Spa Mio means “my spa” what does that mean for your guests?
   Spa Mio is their oasis. It’s their destination to relax, whether they are a hotel guest or a local. When guests arrive at our spa they know they will be able to escape from reality at an affordable price.

3. How does your Psychology degree from UNLV help you working with your staff?
   I use my Psychology degree on a daily basis especially when it comes to listening. It helps me better understand the dynamics of team member relations and different learning styles. From a business perspective it certainly helps to understand human behavior and how it affects purchase decisions. I’m able to better merchandise my retail, from where products should be displayed to what scents should be used, in order to maximize profits.

4. It’s been said you have one of the best fitness centers in town, what makes it unique?
   The view and the equipment set us apart. Our fitness center overlooks our resort pool and cabanas which provide natural lighting and beautiful scenery. There’s nothing quite like looking out at the pool to get you motivated to work out! 
   
   We also get many compliments on the assortment of cardio, strength machines and free weights that we offer. We have great variety including rowing machines, step mill and cross trainers – pretty much all the essential tools for a healthy lifestyle. The Dumbell Man ensures all our equipment is in great working condition, making sure our fitness center operates at top-notch!

5. If you didn’t live in Las Vegas you’d love to live….
   I really can’t think of a better city to live in. I love Las Vegas. I was born here and I believe the city offers so many business adventures for me and others.
