Verandah Resort & Spa

 

Verandah Resort & Spa Seasoned spa-goers are making the trip to the new and luxurious Verandah Resort & Spa on Antigua's secluded northeast coast. Perched on the rim of a breathtaking cove are 200 villa-style suites, each with its namesake verandah. The inclusive resort's low-key vibe is decidedly serene. Here, guests find themselves in harmony with nature, especially at the eco-friendly property's pampering Tranquility Spa, which debuted last October.

The spacious new spa is an oasis of calm that brings the outdoors inside, through the textures of roughhewn stone and wood, and French doors that welcome in natural light and sparkling views of the sea and sky. Here, each guest is greeted with a cup of herbal tea and led to the privacy and comfort of a beautifully appointed individual treatment room, with inviting beds and bliss-inducing background music. Guests appreciate Spa Tranquility's thoughtfully crafted menu of restorative experiences. Treatments draw from cultures worldwide, and use exclusive Pevonia Botanica spa products for the utmost in natural pampering.

Tranquility's eclectic massage menu includes the healing Thai yoga massage, a soothing Sabai Stone treatment, and the signature Well Being massage, which incorporates Swedish techniques and those of other disciplines to stimulate circulation, promote relaxation and leave guests feeling profoundly refreshed. Beautifying options include the nourishing and decadent Caviar and Pearl Anti-aging facial as well as Detoxifying Seaweed Wrap to tone, smooth and hydrate parched skin. The Green Coffee Wrap reduces cellulite by stimulating the body's ability to break down fat and reduce water retention.

Spa Tranquility is all about taking the time to relax, replenish and renew, in the vibrant and beautiful setting. A visit to Spa Tranquility is a "must" to put guests in the proper state of mind for the ultimate vacation.
