Spa Hotels & Resorts always sound a little intimidating – sort of as if they are intended to sound a little out of reach, no? Well not our stylish babes of beauty, wellness, health and lots of chillax time. Run around all day in your fluffy gowns sniffing up those botanical oils, try desperately not to get aroused in the massage room, or steam yourself like some little Dim Sum, frankly your body probably deserves a little MOT.
This wellness genre from The Aficionados is geared for those of you who want a little Me-Time, steady in the slow lane with yoga atop a mountain; yet it is just as equally for those looking to join a boot-camp in luxury surrounds, foregoing the local park on a frosty morning.
Travel to a Spa destination, detox, polish and beautify – then return home to start all over again – what fun.
