5 Beautiful Spas In The World To Retreat To
#1: The Mandala Hotel, Berlin, Germany
image

Located on the top floor of the Mandala Hotel, ONO Spa is a scenic haven boasting a panoramic view of Berlin. The facility provides private spa suites and offers treatments such as firming and detox massages. One to try: the 30-minute Iyashi Dome sauna treatment, which helps relieve muscle tension.

Even the tiniest details are not left to chance: The spa windows are embedded with invisible crystals to neutralise the effects of smog from the external environment.

#2: Vigilius Mountain Resort in South Tyrol, Italy

This remote resort is located 15,000 metres above sea level and is accessible only by cable car. Every treatment room in the 5-star resort spa is furnished with internally-heated stone partitions to keep you cosy and warm.

The array of treatments offered include Shiatsu massages, which uses finger pressure to activate the body’s in-built regeneration powers, and the Silver Quartzite Stone Massage, which uses fragrant incense and therapeutic herbs to stimulate the Qi in the body.

#3: The Royal Snail at Namur, Belgium

The Royal Snail is a more urban take on spa getaways, with an outdoor pool and sleek, modern decor. The spas are located on the ground floor of the hotel, with facilities like a sauna, an infra-red spa, and balneotherapy, a treatment that allows you to bathe in spring water.

You’ll be spoilt for choice with the range of massages available, including a hot stone body massage and a Mediterranean massage. The men are also in for a treat, with facial care treatments and scrubs available exclusively for them.

#4: Seaside Palm Beach in Gran Canaria, Spain

Located on the white, sandy beaches of the island of Gran Canaria, the Seaside Palm Beach is a reclusive retreat for those seeking to get away from city life. The hotel is surrounded by palm trees, and sits at the edge of a nature reserve.

The hotel is equipped with high-tech wellness and spa facilities for complete relaxation and indulgence. Pamper yourself with massages like the Royal Citrus Experience, which utilises pure Vitamin C for the face and body. If the saunas and thalasso (aka mineral-rich) pools don’t satisfy, you can always opt for a stroll on the beach instead.

#5: Shanti Maurice - A Nira Resort in Mauritius Chemin Grenier, Mauritius
image

Located on the pristine location of Mauritius, the Shanti Maurice Resort is surrounded by clear blue beaches, and lush greenery. The resort’s sprawling Nira Spa facilities take up 6,967 sq m of the entire premises.

Nira Spa features three specialised spa stations: the Holistic Bio Experience (for stress-relieving organic treatments); the Indian Experience (treatments here use herbal oils to strengthen immunity); and the Oriental Experience (like Thai massages). Courses such as pilates, yoga, and AquaFit (an underwater muscle exercise) are also available.
