There’s nothing better to get rid of all the stress and worries of life than a visit to the spa, where you can just sink in and let your worries melt away in a pool of healing water. If the sound of that is good enough to put you in the mood for a spa weekend, then take a pick from this list featuring water-themed spas and wellness centres and book your next relaxing getaway.
Winner of two Haute Grandeur Global Spa Awards in the category of Luxury Spas and Health & Wellness Spa, the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz is a luxury hotel and spa that should be your accommodation of choice if you’re looking to Switzerland as your next wellness destination.
Boasting thermal water therapies from the Tamina gorge, Europe’s most abundant thermal water source that’s been healing guests since the early Middle Ages, which proves a testament to the effectiveness of the Tamina’s waters. Find yourself a nook in any of the five Thermal Spa pools that cover over 6000 square-metres in the Grand Resort and relax, as you choose between body temperature thermal water or slightly colder pools, to help with a range of bodily ailments.
Being a guest at the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz also gives you access to the Tamina Therme, a public thermal wellbeing centre housed under the hotel’s roof. If the modernist, futuristic architecture isn’t enough to pull you in, the facility is also Europe’s most state of the art water treatment centre with four therapeutic bathing programmes that are tailored for every need. And if a soak isn’t your thing, head to the sauna in Tamina Therme, where the healing water is turned into steam for your body to benefit from and therapists a ready to wait on you.
