What's the difference between a destination spa and a spa resort? |
| |
Destination spas are spa retreats where people go specifically to enjoy the spa's amenities. The destination is the spa rather than the location. Destination spas are traditionally in quiet areas, free from outside distractions. While they can sometimes be a bit pricey, destination spas provide ultimate relaxation. You can indulge in a wide variety of treatments and healthy meal options -- you'll never want to leave! Canyon Ranch (in Tucson, Arizona or Lenox, Massachusetts) offers wellness resources, deluxe spa services, and top-notch hospitality. The Birdwing Spa in Litchfield, Minnesota, has outdoor activities such as nature hikes, canoeing, and kayaking. Birdwing also features a salon and health presentations. |

"Spa resorts include many of the same amenities as a destination spa, but they incorporate more outside activities. Usually, people travel to a resort because of the location; they utilize that resort's luxurious spa facility as just a part of the vacation. Daufuskie Island Resort & Breathe Spa on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, offers activities for the whole family. In addition to a deluxe spa, there's a golf course, fishing, shopping, and a swimming pool. If you want to go somewhere tropical, the beachfront Radisson Aruba Resort, Casino & Spa has a casino and childcare.
When choosing which type of spa to go to, keep in mind who you're going with and which activities you'd like to do. If you're hoping for a peaceful, stress-free vacation with lots of spa treatments, then go for a destination spa. However, if you're planning on sightseeing and traveling during your vacation, try a resort spa. Either way, you'll have a wonderful vacation! |
