Product Description

Review

In the Roman era, a spa was a place where you could bathe in healing waters, but the twenty-first century spa offers more than just water to heal your body and soul. A spa will cater for all your wellbeing needs, from stress-busting massage treatments and fresh fruit detox plans to pigging out on cake while having your toenails painted. The Spa Directory is a global spa guide, covering Europe, America, Australasia and the Pacific, and Africa, the Middle East and Asia, offering concise information about the world's leading spas and the incredible treatments they offer. Targeted at spa virgins and veterans alike, this spa guide will take the stress and confusion out of choosing the right spa destination - whether you're packing a backpack or your Louis Vuitton trunk. Discover where you can escape for a week of yoga on the beach, find out where in Israel you can take a therapeutic open-air mud bath and track down the calmest urban retreats in some of the world's busiest cities. Turn the pages to visit far-flung destinations from exotic beach huts in Thailand to mountain top tree-houses in the Himalayas. Whether you want to meditate at dawn, be massaged at sunset, want sunshine or sea, five-star or tee-pee, or just want to lose a kilo or two, The Spa Directory has the perfect spa for you.


Book Description

The Spa Directory is a global spa guide, covering Europe, America, Australasia and the Pacific, Africa, the Middle East and Asia, offering concise information about the world’s leading spas and the incredible treatments they offer.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Spa Directory, 31 Jan 2003
By Isabel Stevens (London, UK) - See all my reviews
What can I say? This book is absolutely brilliant! As someone who is interested in spas, but not obsessed by them, I found it informative and entertaining and it actually does more than just show pretty pictures. Suzanne Duckett catches the essence of each spa without over selling it, and gives you treatment details, tips on what to pack, a brief description of the area, the type of regular guests and even sums up the ambiance. Us readers are left to simply browse and enjoy planning our next trip - there are nearly 200 worldwide that she's reviewed. Great for a fun flick through, perfect if your looking for an intro to spa-ing, or a bible if you're a seasoned pro. Buy it, beg it, bag it! The most uplifting and inspiring travel and beauty book ever written.
