Luxury Spas

Whilst the excitement of a whirlwind city break is almost addictive, occasionally we all need to take time out to relax and unwind. A long weekend of pampering can do the world of good for not only your body but your mind and outlook. It’s a time to regroup your thoughts, let the stresses float away and temporarily forget the worries of everyday life. 

One of the best ways to totally relax, is by going on a luxurious spa weekend.

What could be better than a haven of calm alongside a full body massage, dip in the pool and a sauna session to ease the tension built up by the 9-5?

For a truly indulgent experience, these luxury spa resorts from around the globe offer pure relaxation, pampering and an unforgettably stunning environment for you to enjoy. You’ll be booking a spa faster than you can say massage.

The Royal Mansour Hotel & Spa

Set in Marrakech this breath-taking spa resort has everything you could desire and more. The interior décor is an unusual twist of traditional Moroccan style combined with a neutral colour palette, making for a visually stunning (and very Instagrammable – sorry!) experience.

The spa’s signature bathing ritual treatment is a must-do, although the cold plunge pool is perhaps not for the faint hearted. For those who enjoy soaking up a little culture on their travels, there’s plenty to see and do in Marrakech. Visit the Souks and haggle yourself a bargain, or take a visit the Majorelle Gardens, a stunning botanic garden bought by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé back in 1980!
