The relaxation mecca is known for its butt-kicking Core Fusion class, which mixes yoga, barre work, and Pilates. The impressive two-story spa is set to open to the public January 2010.
Wow! The spa’s stunning Water Lounge designed by Philippe Starck is just the tip of the 28,000-square-foot iceberg. Creative treatments are performed in oval-shaped rooms using medical-grade products. There’s also a juice bar, a mani-pedi station, and a full-scale gym.
MySpa, the swank spa in the InterContinental Miami hotel, has all the typical gems: private treatment rooms, steam, sauna, and a couples’ suite. But what really stands out is the unusual services like the Sunshine, a hydrosensory treatment with a jet massage and aromatherapy.
The sweet spa in the Four Seasons has the usual goodies, creative body treatments and perks, like a Turkish steam room. Take advantage of the rotating monthy menu of $99 specials. Past offers include the Elegant Rose Facial and Sunset Rose Body Cocoon (a scrub/wrap).
A swank Brickell spa, where the ladies gossip and drink at the in-house bar while getting glammed. The pros here do a stellar — if spendy — job with nails and hair (styling and removing). Peruse the boutique’s selection while your toes dry.
Sure, most people go for a little nip/tuck. But the skin services alone are worth a visit. Opt for a medical-grade facial or skin peel. You’ll look 18 again. Almost.
