About Vessel Floats
Vessel Floats is a float therapy studio in Brooklyn's Greenpoint neighborhood, located at 101 West St. Billing itself as "the first all-access float studio," it specializes in sensory deprivation and float therapy designed to help guests pause, reduce stress, and reset both mind and body. The studio holds an exceptional 4.9-star rating across 456 Google reviews, a strong trust signal reflecting consistently positive guest experiences.
Each float takes place in a private room outfitted with its own shower, ear plugs, and shower products. Guests report that the pods are beautiful, well maintained, and spotlessly clean. A signature part of the Vessel experience is the welcome drink or tincture offered before your float to help you relax, plus a second drink afterward to reflect on the session. Inside the tank, you can adjust the light and sound to your comfort or opt for total darkness and silence.
A first visit is welcoming rather than intimidating. Reviewers repeatedly praise the staff for walking newcomers through the entire process, making them feel safe, calm, and cared for from the moment they arrive. Many describe floating here as their favorite form of meditation and a genuine reset for the nervous system, with several visitors traveling well outside the city or making it part of a regular routine.
Pricing is straightforward: an intro session runs $85 for first-timers, a single float is $109, and a 3-float pack is $220. For frequent floaters, the Infinity Club membership offers unlimited floats for $220 per month. The studio is open daily from 8 am to 10 pm, making it easy to book a session around a busy schedule.
Whether you're curious about sensory deprivation for the first time or looking to add floating to your wellness practice, Vessel Floats offers a calm, intentional environment. Booking a session in advance is recommended, and you can reach the studio directly by phone to confirm details.
