The Best Spa Treatments
Whether it's a pear-and-sugarcane scrub in Jamaica, a cranberry body treatment on Nantucket, or a coffee scrub in Hawaii, a “signature” or “specialty” spa treatment is a great way for your attendees to get a feel for your meeting's destination. Many of these one-of-a-kind treatments use local or indigenous ingredients.
On Nantucket Island in Massachusetts, the Wauwinet's Spa by the Sea offers its signature Cranberry Crush Body Treatment — a blend of New England cranberries, organic raw cane sugar, and a hint of orange to tone and exfoliate. The finish is an application of sunflower, apricot, and golden jojoba oils infused with rosehips. Ahhhhh!
Maui's Hyatt Regency Resort & Spa recently opened the island's only oceanfront spa. One favorite with both sexes is the Ka'anapali Coffee scrub, which uses, naturally, ground coffee beans. With the spa's Cocoa Butter Bliss Massage, local cocoa butter is gently massaged onto the skin, where body heat melts it into a soothing emollient.
At the Ritz-Carlton Golf & Spa Resort, Rose Hall, Jamaica, drink a soothing cup of pear and green apple tea to prepare for your Pear-fect Sugar Scrub & Body Wrap. Then lie back and relax while your therapist uses a mixture of pear and organic sugarcane to exfoliate your skin. Or perhaps you've spent just a little too much time on the beach? Book an Island Aloe Cool Wrap. It calms sunburned skin with a soothing application of aloe tea tree gel, followed by a cooling wrap of iced linens. Finally, an application of aloe and rosehip lotion rehydrates the body.
