The Spa by HARNN Karuizawa

Originally a 17th-century convent, the Sofitel Legend Santa Clara is a masterpiece of preservation and reinvention. The spa, tucked within these storied cloisters, carries the quiet dignity of its past, the sound of the sea, while embracing the fluid elegance of modern wellness. Arched corridors, coral-stone walls, and filtered sunlight create an atmosphere that feels sacred, almost monastic in its serenity, yet undeniably luxurious.

IN THE HEART OF DUBAI, BANYA FORREST HAS REDEFINED WHAT IT MEANS TO EXPERIENCE WELLNESS IN A LUXURY SETTING. CELEBRATED AS A TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD WINNER BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS, THE SPA COMBINES TRADITIONAL SLAVIC RITUALS WITH MODERN COMFORTS TO CREATE A RETREAT THAT ENGAGES BOTH BODY AND MIND. EVERY VISIT PROMISES NOT ONLY RELAXATION BUT A FULLY IMMERSIVE JOURNEY, WITH EACH DETAIL CRAFTED TO DELIGHT THE SENSES AND CULTIVATE EMOTIONAL CONNECTION.

Authentic Slavic Treatments

Banya Forrest brings centuries-old Slavic bathing traditions into a contemporary environment without compromising authenticity. Guests are immersed in traditional steam baths, invigorating parenie (venik massage), and a curated selection of restorative therapies designed to cleanse, revitalize, and reset the body.

Each ritual is thoughtfully sequenced to move between heat and cold, activity and rest—awakening the senses while allowing the nervous system to fully unwind. These time-honored practices create a rare pause from the pace of city life, delivering a wellness experience that feels grounding, purposeful, and deeply renewing.

VIP Private Banya Experience: Taiga

Exclusivity remains one of Banya Forrest’s defining qualities. The VIP Private Banya experience is designed for guests seeking privacy, group bonding, and high-end wellness in a dedicated setting. The spa’s VIP Private Banya – Taiga offers a fully private environment for individuals and groups of up to 20 guests, making it ideal for celebrations, corporate gatherings, or intimate wellness experiences.

The Taiga suite features a private steam sauna, massage and treatment areas, hot stone zones, comfortable changing facilities, and a dedicated entertainment setup. Guests also enjoy access to a private outdoor

terrace surrounded by natural greenery, creating a serene space to relax, cool down, and socialize between sessions—a core pillar of the Banya Forrest wellness philosophy.

Personalized service elevates every moment, with dedicated staff— including professional therapists, attentive hosts, and traditional banchiks (bath attendants)—ensuring a seamless, highly curated experience.

Social Wellness & Emotional Connection

Banya Forrest goes beyond individual treatments to foster social and emotional well-being. The spa regularly hosts communitydriven experiences such as Run and Recover, alongside private events and tailored group sessions designed to encourage bonding and shared moments of restoration. Collaborations with athletic and lifestyle brands further enrich these offerings, creating experiences that extend beyond traditional spa visits.

Private gatherings and bespoke VIP sessions allow groups to enjoy the space in a way that feels personal and emotionally engaging. The brand’s active digital presence continues to nurture these connections, enabling guests to remain part of the Banya Forrest community long after their visit. By blending ritual, conversation, and collective relaxation, Banya Forrest transforms wellness into a shared journey—strengthening emotional connections and creating lasting memories beyond the spa itself.

Personalized Wellness, Thoughtfully Delivered

Every guest receives attention that honors their individual needs and preferences. The Banya Forrest Way is built on thoughtful customization, from tailored treatments to sensory-driven rituals

that support both physical and emotional well-being. Personalized care ensures that each visit promotes physical renewal and emotional balance, making guests feel valued at every step. The spa experience is elevated by small yet meaningful touches designed to enhance comfort, connection, and relaxation. This blend of personalization and cultural authenticity offers a distinctive approach to luxury wellness.

A Complete Luxury Wellness Environment

Luxury at Banya Forrest is expressed through intention rather than excess, within an environment that merges tradition, sensory depth, and refined hospitality. Forest-inspired design, ambient lighting, curated soundscapes, and authentic Slavic rituals—such as steam rooms, plunge pools, snow therapy, and specialized parenie—work in harmony to create a fully immersive experience.

Holistic well-being is further enhanced through culinary offerings inspired by Slavic cuisine and served at the on-site restaurant. Carefully crafted dishes and beverages complement the spa rituals, extending the wellness journey into a nourishing and gastronomic experience. Distinctive elements such as the largest steam sauna in the MENA region and exclusive refreshments highlight the brand’s commitment to delivering an exceptional, fully integrated spa escape.

Banya Forrest demonstrates that true luxury is not defined by opulence alone, but by the ability to make every guest feel understood, cared for, and connected. With its balance of heritage, exclusivity, personalization, and social connection, Banya Forrest sets a new benchmark for luxury wellness—proving that true indulgence is found in authenticity, intention, and genuine care.

WHERE WELLNESS FINDS ITS RHYTHM AT CHI, THE SPA

AT THE HEART OF SHANGRI-LA TANJUNG ARU’S TRANQUIL COASTLINE LIES CHI, THE SPA, HONORED AMONG THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS. THE SPA’S PHILOSOPHY DRAWS ON ANCIENT ASIAN WELLNESS TRADITIONS THAT CELEBRATE THE BALANCE AMONG MIND, BODY, AND SPIRIT. SET WITHIN A SERIES OF PRIVATE SEASIDE VILLAS, THIS RETREAT OFFERS GUESTS A RESTORATIVE JOURNEY SHAPED BY CULTURAL AUTHENTICITY, SKILLED TOUCH, AND DEEPLY PERSONALIZED CARE.

Private Villas Crafted for Tranquility

A defining feature of the experience is the spa’s exclusivity. Each treatment unfolds within its own private villa overlooking the water, allowing guests to slip into stillness from the moment they arrive. The setting encourages a natural sense of calm where time slows, and attention shifts inward. This space is carefully designed to offer complete privacy, enabling each guest to unwind in an atmosphere that feels intimate and secluded, far removed from the distractions of daily life.

The environment is a central element of the spa’s identity. Surrounded by tropical foliage and the soft rhythm of the sea, each villa becomes a sanctuary that evokes serenity. The ambience is guided by natural textures, gentle lighting, and a layout that encourages a quiet, meditative state.

Treatments Inspired by Asian Traditions

Chi, The Spa offers a wide spectrum of treatments shaped by traditional Asian practices. Guests may choose from therapeutic massages, revitalizing body scrubs, rejuvenating facials, and a curated collection of holistic wellness rituals. Signature experiences such as the Borneo Therapy and Chi Balance Massage incorporate local ingredients along with time-honored techniques that nurture deep relaxation.

These therapies are executed by skilled practitioners who bring thoughtful attention to every movement. Their approach blends expertise with sincerity, creating treatments that feel both grounding and revitalizing. Every detail is designed to support overall well-being, from the purposeful application of pressure to the mindful pacing that allows the body to release tension naturally.

Personalization That Makes Every Guest Feel Understood

Personal attention forms the core of the spa’s philosophy. Each visit begins with a brief consultation, during which therapists listen carefully to a guest’s preferences, physical needs, and wellness goals. These insights guide recommendations for treatment types, pressure levels, essential oils, and even the music and ambience within the villa.

This personalization goes beyond technique. It is shaped by genuine hospitality and intuitive care, ensuring that guests feel seen and valued. Whether adjusting a massage to focus on a particular area of concern or selecting natural ingredients aligned with a guest’s sensitivities, the team’s attention to detail turns each treatment into a tailored experience.

Emotional Connection Through Heartfelt Service

What distinguishes Chi, The Spa is its ability to form lasting emotional connections. The team approaches each guest with

warmth and sincerity, cultivating an atmosphere where individuals feel completely at ease. Therapists engage with presence and calm, creating interactions that feel meaningful rather than transactional.

This emotional engagement continues beyond the treatment itself. Thoughtful gestures, reassuring communication, and a gentle awareness of each guest’s comfort contribute to moments that linger in memory. The result is a sense of connection that reflects the spirit of Shangri-La hospitality, where genuine care stands at the center of every encounter.

Defining Luxury Through Authenticity and Intention

Here, luxury is expressed not through excess but through craft and care. The spa embodies a philosophy in which every detail feels deliberate, from the selection of natural ingredients to the intuitive service that guides the guest journey. It is luxury defined by presence, comfort, and meaningful experience, delivered with consistency and heart.

This approach aligns with the broader values of Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, a resort recognized for sustainability, thoughtful service, and a location that immerses guests in Sabah's natural beauty. The spa complements this setting by offering an experience in harmony with its surroundings, rooted in Asian heritage and refined wellness traditions.

CANADA STEAM, STONE, AND SENSORY RITUALS: EXPLORING THE WORLD OF HAMMAM SPA BY CELA

THE RISE OF HAMMAM SPA BY CELA, RECENTLY NAMED AMONG THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD, REFLECTS A WELLNESS PHILOSOPHY BUILT ON DEPTH, SENSORY IMMERSION, AND CULTURAL HERITAGE. RECOGNIZED BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS FOR ITS ELEVATED APPROACH TO HOLISTIC WELL-BEING, THE SPA SETS ITS OWN STANDARD FOR THOUGHTFUL CARE AND ATMOSPHERIC RICHNESS.

A Modern Interpretation of an Ancient Ritual

Central to the spa’s identity is its signature Hammam Turkish Bath, a purification tradition modeled on one of the world’s oldest cleansing practices. The ritual begins with time in the expansive marbleand-mosaic steam room, an intricately tiled chamber infused with eucalyptus vapor designed to soothe respiratory pathways and quiet the mind. Guests then transition to a Turkish suite where a heated marble table anchors the ceremony. The sequence continues with steam-softened exfoliation, a cascade of hot and cool water, and a deep cleansing performed with moisture-rich bubbles and eucalyptus black soap. The results go beyond surface refreshment; the ritual is designed to leave the body supple and the mind clear.

This service represents the spa’s differentiator: a fully immersive encounter grounded in temperature, touch, and traditional technique, offered in a rare way in Eastern Canada.

Canadian Botanicals and Proprietary Formulations

Part of what distinguishes the brand is its use of proprietary Cela products built from Canadian botanicals. These formulations, featuring ingredients like glacial clay, Abyssinian oil, cupuaçu seeds, and lavender, provide a regional signature that ties the spa’s philosophy to the natural landscapes of Canada. Their sensory profile, texture, and efficacy define many of the spa’s most sought-after services.

Highlights include the Cela Seed to Skin Ritual, a 90-minute treatment that incorporates hair, face, and full-body exfoliation, followed by a comforting massage sequence. The experience ends in the Tea Lounge, where warm tea, baklava, and Turkish delight add an intimate finishing touch that guests frequently mention as a memorable gesture.

Transformative Body Rituals Rooted in Texture and Temperature

Among the spa’s high-impact offerings are its suite of immersive body treatments designed to detoxify, soften, or energize the skin. The Moroccan-inspired Rhassoul Clay Wrap uses mineral-rich clay to smooth the complexion while guests rest in a calming Turkish suite. Pressure-point work on the scalp, neck, and shoulders enhances the sensation of release, followed by a cleanse and a fullbody cream application.

Equally distinctive is the Cela Glacial Mud Wrap, built around a rare Canadian glacial clay, exclusive to the spa, rich in minerals that calm, rehydrate, and purify the skin. Heated marble activates the clay, enhancing absorption before a revitalizing massage completes the service. For guests who prefer exfoliation, the Natural Grains Polish and Black Gold Scrub incorporate fine botanical grains or coffee blends to brighten and smooth the skin.

Luxury Facials with Advanced Techniques

On the facial menu, guests can choose between sensorial, botanical treatments, or advanced skin technology. The Luxury Aromatherapy Facial provides a full-body relaxation component, beginning with inhalation therapy and continuing through a sequence of masques, massage, and layered applications that leave the skin bright and well-balanced.

For those seeking visible improvement, the 3-in-1 OxyGeneo Facial boosts oxygenation and supports collagen renewal, while

the Ultrasound OxyGeneo enhances product penetration for deeper results. Each facial includes comforting touches, warm towel compressions, massage elements, and carefully selected actives, to create a restorative, soothing progression.

Massage Therapies that Support Deep Rest

The spa’s massage collection ranges from Swedish and deep tissue to aromatherapy and Ayurvedic-inspired techniques. The Non-RMT Relaxation Massage stands out for its calming use of a weighted blanket and natural magnesium spray, designed to quiet mental overload. Couples may opt for a shared experience in a private suite, enhanced with a deep-soaking tub, Bathorium soaks, and artisanal chocolates for added indulgence.

Thoughtful Touches that Elevate the Experience

Throughout the spa, personalization is prioritized. Therapists tailor their approach based on guest preferences; staff members often acknowledge birthdays or milestones with small surprises; and every visit concludes with a moment in the Tea Lounge. These gestures create emotional resonance and support the spa’s reputation for attentive hospitality.

WHEN JSPA AT RELAIS & CHÂTEAUX

SPA HOTEL JAGDHOF EARNED ITS PLACE AMONG THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS, IT REAFFIRMED WHAT GUESTS HAVE LONG CELEBRATED ABOUT THIS ALPINE SANCTUARY. THE RECOGNITION HIGHLIGHTS A DESTINATION WHERE SENSORY WELLBEING INTERTWINES

SEAMLESSLY WITH NATURE’S PURITY AND FORWARD-THINKING WELLNESS PHILOSOPHIES, FURTHER SOLIDIFYING ITS STATUS AS ONE OF EUROPE’S MOST CAPTIVATING WELLNESS ESCAPES.

A Wellness Haven Surrounded by Alpine Purity

The Jagdhof’s setting amplifies the restorative experience. Guests arrive to the fragrance of forest pine drifting through the property, the cool freshness of glacier air brushing the skin, and interiors shaped by natural wood, soft textures, and warmth. Rustic elegance defines the rooms, wooden beds, soft lighting, and grounded materials inviting instant comfort. This atmosphere forms the foundation upon which the 3,000m² jSPA was designed: a space dedicated to sensory renewal and complete mind-body equilibrium.

jSPA: An Alpine Wellness Universe

The expansive jSPA includes the Vitality World, Water World, Spa Chalet, and a coveted private spa suite, each offering its own flavour of wellbeing. The jCURE area stands as the heart of personalised regeneration, integrating tailored treatments, targeted exercise, and health-forward cuisine. Here, wellbeing is not a concept but an experience shaped around the guest’s unique needs.

Vitality World: More Than 20 Wellness Experiences

In the Vitality World, guests encounter one of Austria’s most diverse thermal and sauna landscapes. Over 20 distinct experiences await, ranging from the tepidarium and laconium to a Tyrolean-style Finnish sauna, herbal bath, saltwater inhalation grotto, glacier water bucket shower, hot whirlpool, and more.

Against the dramatic backdrop of the Stubai mountains, visitors can choose a single therapy or indulge in a spectrum of sensations. Access to this entire world is complimentary for all hotel guests, adding yet another layer of exclusivity to the Jagdhof experience.

The Spa Chalet: A Private Alpine Refuge

Spanning 700 square metres across two levels, the Spa Chalet offers a level of intimacy rarely found in wellness destinations. Constructed from centuries-old Tyrolean barn wood and local stone, the space is enriched with the aromas of mountain herbs, inviting lounges, hayracks, a library, balconies, panoramic relaxation rooms, a tea bar and dedicated tea butler, a sensory path, and an invigorating plunge pool.

This adults-only sanctuary provides profound tranquillity for guests aged 15 and above, creating the ideal space to unwind, reset, and enjoy an atmosphere shaped by Alpine heritage.

Water World: Pools with a View

The pool experience is equally enchanting. Guests can glide from the indoor pool straight into the heated outdoor pool, emerging beneath the open Stubai sky. Nearby, the waterfall flows gently while the whirlpool emits inviting steam, offering a refreshing pause between sauna sessions or treatments.

Pioneering Wellness Concepts and Advanced Treatments

jSPA sets itself apart through a triad of innovative treatment philosophies:

• Mylife Changer Method – A holistic, science-driven lifestyle concept created by Dr Alexander Papp, supporting longterm balance through movement, regeneration, and targeted therapies.

• jCURE – Personalised programmes developed through detailed consultation and skin analysis, integrating tradition, research, and modern skincare methodologies to repair, refine, and restore.

• QMS Medicosmetics – A powerful solution for lifting, oxygenation, anti-ageing, and glow, ideal for guests seeking visible transformation without invasive treatments.

Guests consistently remark on the emotional impact of the experience. Alpine fragrances, calming rituals, and attentive therapists create a sense of connection that stays with guests long after they depart. Every treatment is adjusted to personal preferences, whether through tailored serums, custom programmes, or lifestyle-focused sessions designed to elevate wellbeing.

A Wellness Destination Where Science, Nature, and Warmth Converge

What truly distinguishes jSPA is the combination of advanced medical-grade skincare, Alpine-inspired wellness, and an authentically warm team. The staff’s natural friendliness brings comfort and reassurance, shaping an atmosphere where every guest feels genuinely valued. This union of expertise, environment, and heartfelt hospitality positions jSPA as one of Europe’s most compelling wellness destinations.

From nutrition and physical activity to emotional health and dermatological care, every aspect of the guest’s well-being is carefully considered. The medical infrastructure includes diagnostic labs, physiotherapy and hydrotherapy facilities, and state-of-the-art

technologies. Each guest is cared for by a multidisciplinary team using a humanized and individualized approach, ensuring they receive what best fits their needs and allows them to achieve the best possible results.

Programs Designed for Each One

Kurotel’s programs are known for their structure and tangible outcomes. Each one addresses a specific aspect of health, helping guests achieve balance, recovery, and renewed energy.

• Healthy Longevity Program: Focuses on improving lifestyle habits, physical performance, and quality of life.

• Detox Program: Aimed at restoring metabolic balance through cleansing nutrition and therapeutic treatments.

• Cognitive and Emotional Health Program: Combines neurofeedback, mindfulness, and physical training to enhance focus and reduce anxiety.

• Weight Optimization Program: Encourages sustainable results through nutritional guidance and fitness science.

• Spa Experience: Offers restorative therapies, massages, and hydrothermal rituals that calm both body and mind.

Each program is carefully adapted to the guest’s medical assessments and objectives, creating a clear path toward lasting well-being.

Comfort with Purposeful Design

Every detail of Kurotel’s environment has been considered to promote calm, recovery, and inspiration. Rather than overwhelming the senses, the space invites clarity and rest through thoughtful design and natural surroundings.

• Accommodations: Rooms are bright, spacious, and designed to promote restful sleep and mental clarity.

• Wellness Facilities: Include hydrotherapy pools, saunas, fitness centers, and treatment rooms for aesthetic and therapeutic care.

• Natural Setting: The property’s green landscapes and gardens offer quiet spaces for reflection and connection with nature.

• Spa Treatments: A wide selection of therapies, including hydrotherapy, thalassotherapy, and facial rejuvenation supported by medical dermatology.

• Culinary Wellness: The restaurant serves nutrient-rich meals based on local ingredients and medical nutrition science, showing that health and pleasure can coexist.

Each element within the property supports Kurotel’s purpose, to create an environment where science, rest, and renewal come together naturally.

As Kurotel approaches its next decade, its purpose remains unchanged: to help people build sustainable health through education, prevention, and genuine care. The center continues to evolve, guided by research, medical expertise, and the belief that health should be an everyday practice rather than a temporary retreat.

By integrating science, compassion, and natural balance, Kurotel Medical Spa continues to influence the way wellness is understood around the world.

MACAU MORPHEUS SPA AT CITY OF DREAMS MACAU CELEBRATED AMONG THE WORLD’S FINEST WELLNESS DESTINATIONS

IN MACAU’S DYNAMIC WORLD OF LUXURY HOSPITALITY, CITY OF DREAMS, GUIDED BY THE BRAND PROMISE “DREAM BEYOND”, IS COMMITTED TO CREATING EXPERIENCES THAT CONTINUOUSLY EXPAND THE BOUNDARIES OF IMAGINATION. MORPHEUS

SPA AT CITY OF DREAMS STANDS OUT AS AN IMMERSIVE SANCTUARY RECOGNIZED GLOBALLY AS ONE OF THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD, CELEBRATED BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS. THIS DISTINGUISHED WELLNESS DESTINATION MOVES BEYOND CONVENTIONAL SPA EXPECTATIONS, OFFERING AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE ADVANCED THERAPEUTIC CONCEPTS MEET DEEPLY RESTORATIVE RITUALS. EVERY ELEMENT HAS INTENTION, FROM THE ARCHITECTURE TO THE EMOTIONAL TONE OF THE EXPERIENCE, CREATING RENEWAL THAT FEELS REFINED, PERSONAL, AND GENUINELY TRANSFORMATIVE.

A Destination Designed for Meaningful Restoration

Located within the futuristic Morpheus at City of Dreams Macau, this two-level retreat invites guests to slow their pace and reconnect with balance. The atmosphere is calm without being overly staged, sophisticated without feeling distant, and enriched with gentle sensory detail rather than unnecessary extravagance. From the moment guests arrive, there is a clear sense that Morpheus Spa is not about fleeting indulgence. Instead, it is about purposeful rejuvenation rooted in thoughtful design and authentic care.

Intelligent Facilities Crafted Around Wellbeing

Morpheus Spa’s facilities reflect a philosophy centered on preparation, release, and renewal. Before entering treatment spaces, guests are encouraged to transition through an elevated sequence of wellness experiences that ready both body and mind. Steam rooms, Finnish sauna, vitality pool, and semi-circular body massage jet shower works in harmony to ease tension, stimulate circulation, and calm the nervous system. These are not decorative luxuries positioned for effect. They

are deliberate components of a considered wellness journey. After treatments conclude, the relaxation room offers a quiet, almost weightless environment that allows serenity to settle slowly, extending the emotional resonance of the experience.

Signature Treatments Shaped by Expertise and Sensory Depth

The treatment menu is a testament to expertise, innovation, and respect for time-honored techniques. Signature experiences such as the Morpheus Deep Sleep therapy blend energy-point massage with clinically informed approaches to address fatigue, emotional strain, and restlessness in a meaningful way. Equally compelling are the facial therapies, particularly those incorporating internationalaward-winning Margy’s Monte Carlo products, including the global exclusive Platinum Mask treatment that focuses on regenerating skin cells and restore elastin. Products from Subtle Energies of Australia further enhance the sensorial and therapeutic depth of the spa’s offerings, underscoring Morpheus Spa’s commitment to premium quality, integrity, and performance-driven results.

Elevated Grooming Within the Private VIP Salon

Complementing the spa journey, Morpheus Spa extends its dedication to refinement through its private VIP Salon. This discreet extension offers meticulously delivered hair and nail

treatments for both men and women, designed not only to enhance appearance but to elevate confidence and presence. Premium brands, including DAVINES, SpaRitual, EVO GEL, and GellyFit, support skilled craftsmanship, ensuring every service feels polished, precise, and tailored to the individual. The salon experience is carefully aligned with the spa’s philosophy: sophisticated, attentive, and deeply considered.

Service that Feels Human, Warm, and Insightful

What truly defines Morpheus Spa is the emotional intelligence behind its service. Interactions feel genuine rather than rehearsed. Treatments feel individually calibrated rather than standardized. The team approaches wellness with both professionalism and empathy, acknowledging that every guest arrives with different expectations, needs, and rhythms. This creates trust, comfort, and a quiet connection that elevates the entire experience from something simply luxurious to something deeply memorable.

A Wellness Destination of Global Distinction

Morpheus Spa at City of Dreams Macau has rightfully earned its place among the world’s most respected luxury wellness destinations, not solely because of its setting or international recognition, but because it delivers experiences that resonate beyond the treatment room. Guests leave not only refreshed, but more centered, more aware of their own well-being, and more attuned to a calmer internal rhythm.

ORIGINAL BEER SPA: A DISTINCTIVE WELLNESS EXPERIENCE RECOGNIZED

AMONG THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD 2025

ORIGINAL BEER SPA BRINGS A REFRESHING INTERPRETATION OF MODERN WELLNESS, OFFERING GUESTS AN EXPERIENCE GROUNDED IN NATURAL INGREDIENTS, PRIVATE RELAXATION, AND A SIGNATURE BATHING RITUAL INSPIRED BY TRADITIONAL CZECH BREWING. ITS RECOGNITION AS ONE OF THE LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS’ TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD FOR 2025 POSITIONS THE BRAND AMONG GLOBAL LEADERS IN WELLNESS INNOVATION, A STATUS EARNED THROUGH CONSISTENCY, CREATIVITY, AND A COMMITMENT TO OFFERING SOMETHING TRULY DIFFERENT WITHIN AN INCREASINGLY COMPETITIVE SECTOR.

Founded and led by Jaromír Pažout, Original Beer Spa has evolved into a well-defined concept with international recognition. What began as an unconventional idea has matured into a structured spa brand known for its certified natural beer bath formula, personal approach, and strong focus on quality control. The brand operates both owned and franchise locations, each designed to reflect its distinctive identity and standards of service. This level of consistency, supported by formal certification processes, is rare within experiential wellness and has become one of the spa’s defining strengths.

At the center of the experience is the beer bath ritual, a treatment using natural extracts found in Czech Krušovice® beer, including brewer’s yeast rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and enzymes. Guests soak in large hand-carved oak tubs, a design detail that speaks to the spa’s emphasis on authenticity and craftsmanship. The bath is followed by a relaxation period on a heated bed near a fireplace, reinforcing a sense of privacy and slow-paced calm. According to the company’s internal description, all treatments are conducted in private rooms, and guests are free to enjoy unlimited Krušovice® beer alongside freshly baked beer bread, heightening the sensory aspect of the experience.

The spa’s approach to personalization further elevates the concept. Each session is exclusive to the booking party, ensuring uninterrupted privacy. Staff introduce guests to the space and then step away, allowing them to enjoy the treatment independently. Essential items, including towels, sheets, linen blankets, and basswood slippers, are provided, making the experience effortless from start to finish. This balance of attentive hospitality and personal space aligns with the preferences of today’s wellness travelers, who increasingly value autonomy as part of their relaxation rituals.

Original Beer Spa’s rise has also been fueled by its strong operational framework. The brand places considerable emphasis on innovation, with a focus on high-quality digital systems and streamlined internal processes. The spa’s website generates approximately 95 percent of bookings, supported by a mobile app and an advanced online communication system that includes automated client assistance. These investments position the company not only as a service provider but as a technologically forward brand with a clear strategy for growth.

Design is another defining feature. Spaces are built using natural materials, with warm tones, solid wood elements, and details that echo traditional brewer’s craftsmanship. The atmosphere feels centered on natural comfort rather than overly ornate luxury, making the experience approachable while still maintaining refinement. The company continues to update its design language as it expands, particularly as it enters partnerships with luxury hotels, which bring opportunities for further architectural and stylistic evolution.

The brand’s credibility is strengthened by its consistent recognition from respected international organizations. Over the last three

years, Original Beer Spa has received honors from Luxe Global Awards, World Luxury Spa Awards, Travel & Hospitality Awards, CEO Destination Awards, and TripAdvisor’s Travellers’ Choice. These achievements reflect both guest satisfaction and industry acknowledgment, reinforcing the spa’s position within global wellness.

Guest reviews frequently highlight the uniqueness of the beer bath, the friendly and informative staff, and the feeling of novelty without compromising relaxation. Many reviews also emphasize the privateroom format, which allows couples or small groups to enjoy the experience comfortably. The combination of sensory immersion, natural materials, and exclusive access has been particularly appealing to travelers seeking memorable and unconventional spa treatments.

Behind the scenes, the team’s expertise contributes to the spa’s continued success. Both founders and key employees have backgrounds in tourism, marketing, and technological innovation. Their experience, often shared through conferences, publications, and university lectures, helps the brand stay ahead of trends and maintain high operational standards across locations.

Original Beer Spa’s distinction as a TOP 100 Spa of the World for 2025 underscores its successful integration of tradition, wellness, and experiential travel. With a concept that appeals to international guests seeking both novelty and relaxation, the brand continues to establish itself as a leader in its niche. Its thoughtful design, advanced digital systems, strong brand identity, and commitment to maintaining a standard of excellence across all locations reflect a model built for long-term relevance.

SPAIN SANDÁRA WELLNESS & SPA, ABAMA – A MASTERPIECE OF TRANQUILITY ELEVATED BY WORLD-CLASS

LUXURY

IN A SUN-KISSED CORNER OF TENERIFE’S SOUTHWEST, SANDÁRA WELLNESS & SPA, ABAMA OOZES CALM, ELEGANCE, AND BESPOKE CARE, EARNING ITS PLACE AMONG LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS’ TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD FOR 2025. THIS RECOGNITION REFLECTS NOT ONLY ITS EXQUISITE DESIGN AND PREMIUM SERVICES, BUT ALSO A DEEPLY FELT COMMITMENT TO PERSONALIZED, HEART-CENTERED WELLNESS.

A Refined Sanctuary with Intentional Calm

Occupying 450 sqm within the Abama Resort in Tenerife, Sandára is conceived as an exclusive retreat of “rejuvenation, purification, and equilibrium.” From the moment you enter, professional therapists welcome you into a realm designed to realign the senses, soothe the spirit, and regenerate the body.

Excellence by Leadership

At the center of the Chenot Method® is the principle of hormesis, a process that introduces controlled, positive stressors to prompt cellular repair. Treatments are complemented by the plant-based Chenot Diet®, developed by nutritional specialists to enhance detoxification and support internal recovery. The combination creates a structured and measurable system that helps guests reset physiological processes in a focused and effective way.

Truly Tailored Experiences

The vision behind Sandára comes from Mari Carmen Hernández, whose leadership infuses every treatment with thoughtful intention. Under the general management of Adrián Almirante, the spa reflects a refined balance of operational excellence and personal warmth.

A Unique Offering of Treatments

Sandára’s menu is designed to meet every wellness need, from facial and body therapies to holistic and therapeutic massages, all the way to

mani-pedi sessions and a full hairdressing service. Each treatment draws on globally renowned brands: it is the only spa in the Canary Islands to offer the luxurious Anne Semonin line. Complementing this is Mesoestetic, known for its scientifically driven, resultoriented formulations.

Whether you’re seeking stress relief, therapeutic recovery, or a radiant glow, Sandára designs every protocol individually, guided by your personal goals and delivered with precision and care.

Immersive Water Circuit

A signature of the spa is its water circuit: a hydrotherapy pool, steam bath, sauna, ice fountain, bi-thermal and bucket showers, and four thermal beds. The elegantly appointed changing rooms open straight into the circuit, and from within, guests are treated to sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean and the lush Abama golf course. This fluid, multi-sensory experience primes the body for deeper relaxation and a sense of restored harmony.

Tailored for Every Guest

From the moment a guest inquires to the moment they depart, the Sandára team listens carefully. They manifest each visit to

reflect individual needs, recommending the most fitting products and adjusting each treatment with flexibility and care. You arrive as yourself, and you leave renewed, grounded, and deeply seen.

Defining Luxury in Wellness

For Sandára, luxury means more than lavish surroundings. It’s defined by high-performance, ethical products, highly trained therapists, and an unwavering commitment to personal connection. This philosophy sets them apart even from formidable competitors by delivering not just refinement, but emotionally resonant attention.

Conclusion

Sandára Wellness & Spa, Abama is a place to unwind, but also an artful retreat where nature, science, and authentic care meet. Under the stewardship of Mari Carmen Hernández and manager Adrián Almirante, this spa offers a rare blend: tailored treatments with exclusive brands, a restorative water circuit with ocean vistas, and service that honors each guest’s individuality. To be named among the world’s TOP 100 spas in 2025 is a fitting tribute to their dedication, and a promise that Sandára will continue to define luxury wellness on its own soulful terms.

A TROPICAL POEM IN MOTION: SANTIBURI SPA’S PATH TO WHOLENESS

SET ALONG THE SERENE CRESCENT OF MAE NAM BEACH ON THAILAND’S SHIMMERING ISLAND OF KOH

SAMUI, SANTIBURI SPA, PART OF THE DISTINGUISHED SANTIBURI KOH SAMUI RESORT, HAS ESTABLISHED ITSELF AS THE ULTIMATE SANCTUARY OF HOLISTIC WELLNESS. WITH ITS RECENT RECOGNITION AS ONE OF LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS’ TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD, 2025, THE SPA AFFIRMS ITS COMMITMENT AND PASSION AND INVITES GUESTS INTO A REALM OF LUXURY AND HEALING.

A Distinctive Setting of Tranquility

Located within the resort’s expansive 23-acre tropical enclave on Koh Samui’s north shore, the spa’s environment immediately signals peace. The broader resort grounds feature shady trees, lotus ponds, and a backdrop of calm sea. Against this soothing setting, the spa building stands apart as an independent retreat, the spa building stands apart as an independent retreat, allowing guests to step away from the rhythms of daily resort life and immerse themselves in a world devoted to wellness.

The Philosophy: Peace in Every Dimension

The very name “Santiburi” finds its roots in the Sanskrit word “Shanti”, meaning peace, a guiding principle that the spa embraces not only as relaxation, but as holistic calm across mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions. Its treatment menu is designed accordingly: beyond classic Thai massages, it weaves in body scrubs, steam therapies, Vichy showers, and rituals anchored in nature’s bounty, such as treatments using responsibly sourced moringa oil in partnership with the Moringa Project.

Signature Experiences for the Senses

The spa stands out through several signature offerings:

• “Journey of Samui” (120 minutes): A full-spectrum treatment featuring a coconut oil massage, herbal steam and scrub, concluding with planting a coconut sapling — a symbolic nod to regeneration and nature.

• “Santiburi Synchronised Serenity” (120 minutes): A fourhands massage blending Swedish and Thai techniques, paired with a warm Vichy shower to deepen muscle release and relaxation.

• Moringa-based treatments: With the collaboration with Moringa Project and luxury Thai wellness brand HARNN, the spa introduces “PEACE” blend oils and moringa-focused body and facial therapies — marrying ethical sourcing with sensory indulgence.

Guests consistently praise the high-quality service: one reviewer remarked, “For those in need of deep relaxation, I highly recommend booking a treatment at the Santiburi Spa … Housed within its own dedicated building and surrounded by lush tropical foliage, the spa offers a serene and private escape.”

An Escape for All — Couples, Families, Solo Travellers

While many luxury spas focus exclusively on indulgence, Santiburi Spa sits at the heart of a resort that balances serenity with familyfriendly amenities and active lifestyle options. The broader resort offers a range of activities from non-motorised water sports and a dedicated kids’ club to an 18-hole golf course nearby.

For couples, a private treatment suite becomes a shared retreat; for solo travellers, the calm environment encourages quiet reflection; for wellness aficionados, the spa’s holistic programs deliver deep nourishment..

Luxury With Conscience

In today’s spa landscape, responsibility counts. Santiburi Spa’s partnerships with sustainable brands like Moringa Project, and the resort’s commitment to non-motorised water sports and eco-friendly operations show that indulgence and environmental awareness go hand in hand.

Why It Deserves the Top 100 Recognition

• Ambience & setting: The spa’s location within a lush, tranquil tropical garden and near a quiet beach fosters immediate decompression.

• Holistic wellness spectrum: From traditional Thai healing to advanced treatments and wellness rituals, the offerings cover all facets of adult well-being.

• Signature and exclusive partnerships: The unique treatments and luxury brand collaborations elevate it beyond the typical resort spa.

• Service levels and guest praise: With hundreds of glowing reviews highlighting attention to detail, professional therapists, and outstanding results, the reputation is built on experience.

• Sustainable luxury: The spa’s commitment to ethical sourcing, sustainable gastronomy, non-motorised sports, and broader wellbeing aligns with modern-luxury expectations.

Final Word

If you’re seeking rejuvenation that hits every note of mind, body, and soul, Santiburi Spa delivers. Set in the idyllic surroundings of northern Koh Samui, it fuses Thai tradition with nature with nurture, and indulgence with integrity.

Whether you arrive as a guest at Santiburi Koh Samui Resort or as a day-visitor looking to escape the ordinary, this is a destination where peace is shaped into experience, and wellness becomes a celebration. Book a signature journey, surrender to the rituals, and leave with something deeper than just loosened shoulders. Leave with a restored sense of balance.

COLOMBIA SOFITEL SPA SANTA CLARA, CARTAGENA — A SANCTUARY WHERE TIME ITSELF SLOWS

IN CARTAGENA’S VIBRANT WALLED CITY, WHERE CENTURIES-OLD CONVENT WALLS WHISPER STORIES OF FAITH, DEVOTION, AND RESILIENCE, STANDS A SANCTUARY OF ANOTHER KIND. THE SOFITEL SPA SANTA CLARA, PART OF THE LEGENDARY SOFITEL LEGEND SANTA CLARA CARTAGENA, IS A REALM OF RENEWAL WHERE HERITAGE AND HAUTE HOSPITALITY INTERTWINE WITH EFFORTLESS GRACE. NOW CELEBRATED AMONG LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS’ TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD FOR 2025, THIS EXQUISITE HAVEN CONTINUES TO EMBODY THE SPIRIT OF FRENCH ART DE VIVRE, TRANSLATED THROUGH A DISTINCTLY COLOMBIAN SOUL.

Originally a 17th-century convent, the Sofitel Legend Santa Clara is a masterpiece of preservation and reinvention. The spa, tucked within these storied cloisters, carries the quiet dignity of its past, the sound of the sea, while embracing the fluid elegance of modern wellness. Arched corridors, coral-stone walls, and filtered sunlight create an atmosphere that feels sacred, almost monastic in its serenity, yet undeniably luxuri-

Here, the murmur of fountains mingles with the scent of herbal oils. The soundscape is intentionally hushed, allowing each breath to deepen, each thought to settle. This is not a spa designed merely for indulgence; it is one designed for introspection.

Every element of the Sofitel Spa experience has been composed like a symphony: balanced, harmonious, and deeply evocative. Guests are welcomed into softly lit spaces, seven treatment rooms, a traditional hammam, and a serene relaxation zone, each one designed to invite surrender to stillness.

Signature rituals tell the story of Colombia itself. The Marmalade Scrub, for instance, combines local treasures, chocolate, panela sugar, and lemongrass, to awaken the skin and the spirit alike. The Legendary Emerald Ritual, inspired by the country’s most precious gem, channels the stone’s symbolic energy of renewal and protection, transforming it into a full-body wellness experience.

The recognition by Luxury Lifestyle Awards 2025 affirms what seasoned travelers have long known: that this spa is a destination in its own right. Its inclusion among the TOP 100 Spas of the World acknowledges not only its impeccable facilities and treatments, but also the rare emotional resonance of the experience.

To visit Sofitel Spa Santa Clara is to rediscover a forgotten rhythm, the gentle cadence of self-care, the art of stillness, the poetry of renewal. It is where French refinement meets Caribbean warmth, and where centuries of history find peace in the quiet breath of the present.

In an age of constant movement, Sofitel Spa Santa Clara offers the beauty of stillness. Within its ancient walls, time seems to slow, inviting guests to return not just to a place, but to themselves.

Whether you come seeking renewal, connection, or simply an hour of sublime escape, you leave with something far rarer: a sense of having been restored, body and soul, by the elegance and grace of Cartagena’s most enchanting sanctuary.

JASON LEUNG

IN CELEBRATION OF ITS WIN AS ONE OF THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS, ST. GREGORY SPA AT PAN PACIFIC ORCHARD REINFORCES ITS POSITION AS ONE OF SINGAPORE’S MOST INNOVATIVE LUXURY DESTINATIONS. IN THIS EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW, GENERAL MANAGER JASON LEUNG SITS DOWN WITH ALEXANDER CHETCHIKOV, PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD LUXURY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, TO DISCUSS THE HOTEL’S NATURE-INFUSED ARCHITECTURE, THOUGHTFULLY CRAFTED GUEST EXPERIENCES, AND COMMITMENT TO WELLNESS. THEIR CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS HOW THESE ELEMENTS CONTINUE TO ELEVATE THE GLOBAL PROMINENCE OF PAN PACIFIC ORCHARD AND ITS AWARD-WINNING ST. GREGORY SPA.

Alexander Chetchikov: Pan Pacific Orchard has quickly become a standout in Singapore’s luxury hospitality scene. What guiding vision has shaped the hotel’s unique identity, especially as it ushers in a new era under your leadership?

Jason Leung: Over the past year, our focus has been on reimagining what an urban oasis can mean for today’s traveller. Pan Pacific Orchard was never designed to be a conventional luxury hotel, and my role has been to deepen that intention rather than redefine it entirely.

We are creating a place where guests feel permission to slow down, to move gently, to pause, and to simply be present. In a city that moves very fast, true luxury today is time. Time to breathe, to reset, and to reconnect with oneself. That philosophy guides every decision we make, from how our spaces are designed to how experiences are curated across the hotel.

AC: With the hotel’s four signature environments, Forest, Beach, Garden, and Cloud, how do these architectural concepts elevate the luxury experience for today’s discerning travellers?

JL: The four terraces are not just architectural features; they are emotional environments. Each one activates a different state of mind, and together they form a vertical journey of wellbeing through the hotel.

The Forest grounds and greets you, the Beach opens you up to possibilities, the Garden creates a connection with you, and the Cloud offers perspective to you. Guests naturally gravitate towards what they need most for their visit or in that moment. This is where design becomes experiential. Rather than telling guests how to feel, we allow nature, light, air, and space to guide them. That sense of choice and autonomy is what today’s discerning traveller values most.

AC: The property has earned global recognition for luxury and design. From your perspective, what defines true modern luxury at Pan Pacific Orchard, and how does the hotel deliver it consistently?

JL: Modern luxury is not about more; it is about meaning. Being recognised as the World’s Most Beautiful Hotel is incredibly affirming, but what truly matters is how the hotel supports the human experience.

At Pan Pacific Orchard, beauty serves a purpose. Our biophilic design actively supports wellbeing through movement, stillness, and nourishment. Consistency comes from clarity of intent. Whether a guest is staying in our rooms, dining at Mosella, enjoying a quiet moment on the terraces, or spending time at the spa, the experience should feel calm, thoughtful, and restorative. Luxury should feel natural, not imposed.

AC: With Singapore’s luxury market becoming increasingly competitive, how do you ensure your guest experience remains both elevated and distinctly personalised?

JL: In a competitive luxury landscape, personalisation comes from creating spaces and meaningful moments where guests feel genuinely understood rather than impressed. The Pacific Club Lounge is a good example of how we approach this.

It is designed as a calm, elevated retreat within the hotel, a place where guests can slow down, feel recognised, and enjoy a more intuitive rhythm to their stay. From curated refreshments throughout the day to quieter moments for work or reflection, the experience is deliberately unhurried and connective.

What matters most is not the offering itself, but how it makes guests feel. The lounge allows us to personalise through atmosphere, attentiveness, and discretion, rather than overt gestures. In many ways, it reflects our broader philosophy at Pan Pacific Orchard Hotel. Elevated luxury today is about space, time, and ease, and giving guests the freedom to engage on their own terms within our urban oasis.

AC: You bring over three decades of hospitality experience across renowned brands. How has your global background influenced your leadership approach at Pan Pacific Orchard?

JL: My experience has taught me that while systems and standards matter, hospitality is ultimately about how people

feel. Leadership, to me, is about creating the conditions where our people can care confidently and creatively.

At Pan Pacific Orchard, I encourage our people to think of the hotel as a living space rather than a fixed product. Whether it is shaping a guest’s stay or supporting a client’s event vision, the mindset and intent is the same. We listen first, then respond thoughtfully. That is how we bring ideas to life, whether for an individual guest or through the philosophy of Your Vision, Our Venues when it is appropriate.

AC: The hotel is celebrated for its commitment to sustainability, from 14,000 sqm of greenery to advanced waste-to-water systems. How does sustainability shape daily operations and long-term strategy?

JL: Sustainability here is foundational, not performative. Our greenery, energy systems, and waste solutions are embedded into how the hotel functions every day. They quietly support comfort, cooling, and wellbeing without asking for attention.

Long term, sustainability gives us the freedom to innovate responsibly. It allows us to maintain our identity as an urban oasis that is future-ready and deeply respectful of its environment. Guests may not always notice the systems behind the scenes, but they feel the outcome through cooler spaces, calmer environments, and a stronger connection to nature.

AC: St. Gregory Spa, exclusively for in-house guests, has been recognised as one of the TOP 100 Spas of the World. How does this accolade influence your future plans for wellness and guest wellbeing within the hotel?

JL: St. Gregory Spa is a beautiful expression of stillness, and its recognition is a meaningful affirmation of our philosophy. However, wellness at Pan Pacific Orchard extends beyond the spa.

We anchor wellbeing around three simple pillars: movement, stillness, and nourishment, all activated through our four environments. Stillness is where many guests feel the deepest shift, whether through 9D breathwork, quiet moments across the terraces, or surrendering fully to care at the spa. Nourishment is approached with balance and pleasure, without rules or lectures. Wellness should feel supportive, not prescriptive.

Our future focus is on continuing to design spaces that allow guests to reset naturally. We do not tell guests how to be well. We design the environment and let nature do the work.

POLAND WHERE MOUNTAIN CALM MEETS PRECISION CARE AT TATRY VITA HEALTH & BEAUTY SPA

SET AGAINST THE NATURAL CALM OF ZAKOPANE, TATRY VITA HEALTH & BEAUTY SPA HAS QUICKLY POSITIONED ITSELF AS A DESTINATION FOR DISCERNING WELLNESS TRAVELERS SEEKING SUBSTANCE, EXPERTISE, AND ATMOSPHERE. RECOGNIZED AMONG THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS, THE SPA REFLECTS A THOUGHTFUL BALANCE BETWEEN REGIONAL CHARACTER AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS, OFFERING GUESTS AN EXPERIENCE SHAPED BY INTENTION RATHER THAN EXCESS.

A Contemporary Spa Rooted in Place

Opened in 2022, Tatry Vita Health & Beauty SPA was conceived as an extension of its alpine surroundings. The interior design, treatment philosophy, and service rhythm are inspired by the clarity and stillness of the Tatra Mountains. This sense of place is present without being overstated, allowing guests to feel grounded while enjoying a polished and modern wellness environment. The spa’s integration within the Radisson Blu Zakopane ensures both accessibility and a level of operational excellence expected from a globally recognized hospitality brand.

Thoughtfully Curated Treatments

The treatment menu is broad yet carefully edited to focus on results and experience. Guests can choose from classic and hot stone massages, aromatherapy sessions, and candle rituals designed to encourage deep relaxation. Body treatments include scrubs, wraps, firming therapies, and anti-cellulite programs, while facial treatments address hydration, rejuvenation, and skin brightness.

What distinguishes these offerings is their adaptability. Therapists approach each session with flexibility, adjusting techniques, pressure, and product selection to reflect the guest’s physical condition and personal preferences. Signature rituals exclusive to the spa combine massage and skincare into cohesive experiences that feel complete rather than segmented.

Premium Products and Specialized Techniques

Tatry Vita Health & Beauty SPA collaborates with reputable professional brands, including Skeyndor, Berkovicz, and Vagheggi, which are chosen for their proven formulations and active ingredients. Treatments are further enhanced through advanced wellness solutions, including the Soft Pack System and quartz bed therapies, which improve comfort while supporting detoxification and muscle relaxation.

These elements are not introduced for novelty. Instead, they are integrated with purpose, reinforcing the spa’s commitment to effective, well-researched wellness practices.

Personalized Care as a Core Principle

Personalization is not treated as an optional enhancement but as a foundational standard. Prior to each treatment, therapists engage guests in a detailed consultation covering wellness goals, sensitivities, and expectations. Preferences such as massage pressure, fragrance selection, and focus areas are carefully noted and respected.

This attention continues throughout the experience, from room ambiance to pacing. The result is a sense of individual care that feels genuine and consistent, encouraging trust and repeat visits.

Wellness Beyond the Treatment Room

The Wellness Zone expands the spa experience into a shared environment dedicated to restoration. Facilities include a 20 meter swimming pool, indoor and outdoor jacuzzis, dry and steam saunas, and a cold water plunge tub. Loungers provide space for rest, while a children’s paddling pool ensures inclusivity for families. Designated adults-only hours in the evening allow for uninterrupted relaxation.

For guests seeking complete privacy, the Private SPA offers a more intimate setting with a salt cave, jacuzzi, saunas, and cooling tub. This space is particularly suited for couples or individuals looking to disconnect in seclusion.

Fitness and Holistic Balance

Complementing the spa and wellness areas, a fully equipped 24hour fitness room allows guests to maintain their routines without compromise. This balance between movement and recovery reinforces the spa’s holistic approach to well-being.

A Distinctive Alpine Wellness Identity

Tatry Vita Health & Beauty SPA stands apart through its ability to merge personalized service, advanced treatments, and a clear sense of regional identity. Each visit reflects a considered approach to wellness that prioritizes quality, care, and emotional connection.

WHERE WELLNESS MEETS THE SEA: THE CASCADES SPA & THALASSO EXPERIENCE

THE CASCADES SPA & THALASSO, RECOGNIZED AS THE BEST SPA IN EGYPT AND ONE OF THE LARGEST THALASSO FACILITIES IN THE WORLD, CONTINUES TO DRAW GLOBAL ATTENTION FOR ITS EXPANSIVE APPROACH TO WELLBEING. RECENTLY NAMED AMONG THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD 2025 BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS, THE SPA INVITES GUESTS TO DISCONNECT, RECHARGE, AND EXPERIENCE THE RESTORATIVE POWER OF WATER, TOUCH, AND THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED TREATMENTS.

The Cascades SPA & THALASSO inspires calm from the moment visitors arrive. The sweeping Somabay coastline, paired with an atmosphere focused on inner balance, creates an environment that refreshes the senses. Every detail, from sound to scent to visual design, encourages a deeper breath and a slower pace, preparing each guest for meaningful restoration.

A Coastal Wellness Destination on an Impressive Scale

Extending across 7,500 square meters, the spa presents a vast world of wellness, featuring 65 treatment rooms arranged to support privacy, tranquility, and comfort. The size alone allows guests to explore multiple forms of rejuvenation without feeling rushed or crowded. Natural light, soft textures, and calming spaces build an atmosphere that supports rest even before treatments begin.

A standout highlight is the 750 m² Thalasso-Tonic Hydrotherapy Pool, an extraordinary installation containing 830 m³ of mineralrich seawater. This pool is divided into several zones, each designed to activate, tone, or relax a specific region of the body through jets, currents, bubble features, and therapeutic pressure points. The combination of warmth, movement, and buoyancy helps release stiffness, support circulation, and energize tired muscles. For many visitors, this experience becomes the cornerstone of their stay.

A Treatment Menu

That Supports Every Wellness Goal

The Cascades Spa & Thalasso offers an extensive range of treatments tailored to support multiple needs, from deep relaxation to beautyfocused care. The menu includes:

• Massages

• Slimming therapies

• Body scrubs

• Body wraps

• Before & after sun treatments

• Treatment experiences for two

• Facials

• Specialized beauty treatments

• Men’s grooming

• Hands & feet therapy

Guests can choose individual services or combine them into a personalized sequence. Each therapy is delivered using high-quality techniques and products, creating noticeable improvements in comfort, skin vitality, and overall well-being.

Where Water and Touch Work Together

The spa’s philosophy embraces the restorative qualities found in the sea. The hydrotherapy pool uses temperature, movement, and targeted pressure to release tension and encourage natural healing. Whether a guest feels weighed down by stress, travel fatigue, or physical strain, the water offers supportive relief.

Massage treatments then deepen the sense of release, loosening tight muscles and easing fatigue. Body scrubs brighten the skin, while wraps soothe and nourish. The sensory contrast of warmth, scent, and gentle pressure helps quiet the mind and refresh the body at the same time.

Programs Designed for Holistic Renewal

Guests seeking a more structured experience can explore multisession programs focused on relaxation, energy restoration, or weight-focused goals. These sequences combine treatments intentionally, allowing the effects to build from one session to the next.

Visitors often describe leaving these programs feeling lighter, clearer, and more balanced. The spa’s environment encourages a full reset, ideal for anyone hoping to break from daily pressures and reconnect with personal well-being.

A Place Where Rest Becomes Effortless

Somabay’s natural beauty enhances every visit, making the spa a favorite escape for travelers seeking calm, warmth, and revitalization. Whether someone is enjoying the hydrotherapy circuit, indulging in a facial, or simply unwinding between treatments, the experience leaves a lasting sense of renewal.

The Cascades Spa & Thalasso offers something more than a menu of treatments; it provides space to breathe, restore clarity, and rediscover energy.

AUDREY ZMIGRODSKI

DIRECTOR OF THE

SPA

AND WARM SPRINGS POOLS

LUXURY WELLNESS TAKES ON A DEEPER MEANING AT THE SPA AT THE OMNI HOMESTEAD RESORT, WHERE HISTORY, HEALING WATERS, AND HEARTFELT HOSPITALITY COME TOGETHER. RECENTLY NAMED ONE OF LUXURY LIFESTYLE AWARDS’ TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD 2025, THIS LEGENDARY SPA CONTINUES TO CAPTIVATE GLOBAL WELLNESS CONNOISSEURS WITH ITS RARE BLEND OF HERITAGE, HEALING WATERS, AND HEARTFELT HOSPITALITY.

Leading and inspiring this iconic destination is Audrey Zmigrodski, Director of the Spa and Warm Springs Pools, whose career spans more than 25 years across spa, hospitality, and food & beverage leadership. Known for her top standards, passion for training and development, and commitment to exceeding guest expectations, Audrey brings a forward-thinking, people-first philosophy that has helped shape luxury wellness at one of America’s most storied resorts.

Alexander Chetchikov: Congratulations on The Spa at The Omni Homestead Resort being named one of Luxury Lifestyle Awards’ TOP 100 Spas of the World 2025. What does this recognition mean to you and your team?

Audrey Zmigrodski: This recognition is incredibly meaningful because it honors not just a place, but the people behind it. The Spa and Warm Springs Pools are stewarded daily by a team that deeply respects the heritage of The Homestead while remaining committed to delivering a modern, world-class wellness experience. To be recognized on a global stage affirms that our focus on thoughtful service, consistency, and authentic care truly resonates with guests. For my team, it validates their dedication, professionalism, and pride in creating moments that guests remember long after they leave.

AC: With over 25 years of experience in spa and hospitality leadership, how has your journey shaped the way you define and deliver luxury wellness today?

AZ: My journey has taught me that true luxury wellness is not defined by opulence alone—it is defined by intention, integrity, and connection. Having worked across spa, hospitality, and

food & beverage, I have learned that wellness must be holistic and seamlessly integrated into every touchpoint of the guest experience. Today, I define luxury as feeling genuinely seen, cared for, and restored. Delivering that requires empowered associates, clear standards, and a culture that values both excellence and empathy.

AC: The Omni Homestead Resort has a spa legacy dating back to 1766. How do you balance honouring this historic heritage while introducing modern wellness innovation?

AZ: The Homestead’s history is not something we work around—it is something we build upon. Our geothermal waters and restorative traditions are the foundation of everything we do. Innovation, for us, means enhancing these timeless elements with modern science thoughtfully placed in our services. For example, the skin care products that we use, BABOR and ZENTS, and of course, technology, such as HydraFacial, NuFace, and Althaea Skin’s CARA device. We honor the past by preserving its authenticity, while evolving the experience to meet today’s wellness traveler where they are—seeking both grounding and transformation.

AC: Your background spans massage therapy, aesthetics, food & beverage, and operations. How does this multidisciplinary experience influence the guest journey at the spa?

AZ: My experience across multiple disciplines gives me a clear understanding of how excellence is delivered at every level. It allows me to set realistic standards, support my teams effectively, and ensure that the guest experience is cohesive and intentional.

Ultimately, it helps us deliver wellness in a way that feels effortless to the guest, even though it is carefully orchestrated behind the scenes.

AC: The Warm Springs Pools are central to the spa’s identity. What makes these mineral-rich waters such a transformative experience for today’s wellness traveller?

AZ: The Warm Springs Pools are a rare and powerful offering. These naturally heated, mineral-rich waters have been a source of restoration for centuries. In today’s fast-paced world, they offer something increasingly rare: stillness, grounding, and a deep sense of connection to nature and history. Guests don’t just soak; they slow down, reset, and reconnect with themselves. That kind of transformation cannot be manufactured; it is felt.

AC: You are known for your passion for training and development. How do you inspire your team to consistently exceed expectations and avoid settling for the status quo?

AZ: Inspiration begins with clarity and trust. I believe in setting clear standards while empowering associates to bring their own pride and purpose into their work. Ongoing training, open dialogue, and accountability are essential, but so is recognition.

From time to time, I personally step into the treatment room to train associates on new services and evolving techniques. That hands-on involvement reinforces that learning and excellence are shared responsibilities, not directives from a distance. It allows me to support the team directly, ensure consistency in delivery, and demonstrate my commitment to their craft and professional growth.

When associates experience leadership alongside them—learning, refining, and elevating services together—they feel supported, respected, and connected to the larger vision. Recognition then becomes tangible and meaningful. Excellence evolves into a shared

commitment rather than a mandate, and we cultivate a culture where growth is expected, supported, and celebrated at every level.

AC: Personalization is a defining element of the spa experience. How does your team ensure each guest’s wellness journey feels truly bespoke and emotionally meaningful?

AZ: Personalization starts with listening. Our team is trained to observe, ask thoughtful questions, and respond intuitively to each guest’s needs—spoken and unspoken. From customized treatments to simple moments of anticipation and care, we aim to create experiences that feel intentional and emotionally resonant. When a guest feels understood rather than processed, their wellness journey becomes personal, memorable, and meaningful.

AC: And lastly, how do you envision the future of luxury wellness at The Spa at The Omni Homestead Resort, and what excites you most about what’s to come?

AZ: The future of luxury wellness at The Homestead lies in deepening authenticity while continuing to evolve thoughtfully. I am excited about expanding our service offerings, strengthening our connection to the natural environment, and further investing in our people. We also see a meaningful opportunity to evolve our menus to be more intentionally nutritionally focused, supporting wellness from the inside out.

As we look ahead, we hope to further expand into integrative wellness experiences such as fitness programming, yoga, mindful movement, and health coaching, creating a more comprehensive, lifestyle-oriented approach to well-being. What excites me most is the opportunity to continue shaping a wellness destination that honors history, elevates modern expectations, and creates lasting impact, for our guests, our associates, and the legacy of this remarkable place.

WARAS SPA: A TRANQUIL CELEBRATION OF WELLNESS IN UBUD

WARAS SPA HAS BEEN HONOURED AMONG THE TOP 100 SPAS OF THE WORLD, A WELL-DESERVED RECOGNITION FOR ITS DISTINCTIVE APPROACH TO WELL-BEING AND HEARTFELT BALINESE HOSPITALITY. PRESENTED BY LUXURY LIFESTYLE

AWARDS, THIS ACCOLADE CELEBRATES THE SPA’S CONTRIBUTION TO GLOBAL EXCELLENCE IN THE WELLNESS AND HOSPITALITY INDUSTRIES.

Located in the lush haven of Tegallalang Village, surrounded by Ubud’s iconic rice fields and coconut trees, Waras Spa captures the very essence of health and harmony, its name reflecting “health” in Indonesian and “remedy” from the Balinese word “ubad.” True to the spirit of the Pramana Experience, the spa continues to elevate wellness through an atmosphere of calm authenticity and holistic care, inviting guests to rest, nurture, and rediscover themselves.

The

Philosophy of Healing and Harmony

At the core of Waras Spa lies a philosophy deeply rooted in balance, the alignment of body, mind, and spirit. Every experience here is designed not just to pamper, but to restore a sense of internal rhythm. The team believes that wellness is an ever-evolving state that requires attention, intention, and care.

The treatments at Waras Spa draw upon ancient Balinese healing practices, combined with modern wellness techniques. Guests can choose from a wide range of therapies, including Traditional Balinese Massage, Aromatherapy, Hot Stone Therapy, and signature body scrubs and wraps. Each session begins with a personalized consultation, allowing therapists to tailor the experience to individual preferences, from the choice of essential oils to massage pressure and sensory ambiance.

This thoughtful attention to personal needs creates a wellness experience that feels deeply individual. Every guest is seen, heard, and understood, transforming each visit into a meaningful encounter rather than a routine spa appointment.

A Sanctuary of Serenity and Connection

The atmosphere of Waras Spa reflects its philosophy of natural serenity. The spa is thoughtfully designed to harmonize with Ubud’s landscape, where private treatment rooms open onto sweeping views of rice fields

and distant hills. This connection with nature enhances the sense of renewal, as each gentle breeze and soft birdsong becomes part of the healing experience.

Guests are encouraged to take their time, to soak in the warmth of the jacuzzi after a massage, to sip herbal tea surrounded by greenery, or simply to breathe and be still. These moments of quiet reflection are as integral to the spa’s essence as the treatments themselves.

It is this mindful rhythm that allows guests to reconnect with their inner calm, a reminder that true wellness is not a fleeting escape, but a way of being.

Personalized Touches that Make Every Experience Unique

What sets Waras Spa apart is its genuine care for emotional connection. The team goes beyond technique, focusing instead on creating moments that resonate with each guest’s emotions. From the first greeting to the final farewell, every detail is infused with authenticity.

Therapists take time to understand personal preferences, ensuring treatments are not only effective but deeply comforting. Whether it’s adjusting the temperature of the oils, recommending a ritual to match a guest’s mood, or offering post-treatment guidance, each touchpoint reflects attentiveness and intuition.

The spa’s exclusive signature rituals are another highlight, experiences inspired by Balinese traditions and local ingredients, designed to soothe and rejuvenate on multiple levels. These bespoke therapies, complemented by the tranquil setting and soothing

jacuzzi, create an ambiance where wellness becomes an intimate journey of self-discovery and renewal.

Redefining the Essence of Luxury in Wellness

At Waras Spa, luxury takes on a thoughtful meaning. It is found not in extravagance, but in the quiet sophistication of details that make every guest feel truly cared for. Luxury here means privacy, authenticity, and presence, the ability to let go of the noise and simply exist in a moment of peace.

Each element, from the calming décor to the scents that fill the air, is designed to engage the senses and bring awareness to the present. The spa team’s professionalism and warmth complement this environment, creating an experience that feels effortless yet profoundly meaningful.

The Kuwarasan Spirit

Located just a short distance from Ubud Center, Waras Spa forms part of the exquisite Kuwarasan Ubud resort, a destination that embodies the authentic spirit of Bali. Beyond the spa, the resort features 27 suites and villas, a serene infinity pool, a yoga space, and dining experiences inspired by local flavors and artistry.

Every element reflects a genuine connection to Balinese culture and hospitality. Whether through tranquil surroundings, traditional design elements, or the warmth of the staff, Kuwarasan offers guests a space to rest, nourish, and grow.

Waras Spa remains its beating heart, the place where Kuwarasan’s vision for meaningful well-being truly comes alive.
