My Favourite Spas Around The World

My Favourite Spas Around The World

NIHI Sumba, Indonesia.

Let’s be real—I’m a total spa junkie, and I’m not ashamed to admit it. There’s nothing I love more than discovering incredible spa experiences, from cutting-edge facilities to unique treatments. Whether it’s a high-tech wellness sanctuary or a jungle-side retreat, count me in! These are my absolute favorite spas across the globe—the ones that have left me blissed out, rejuvenated, and already planning my next visit.

1. NIHI Sumba, Indonesia

Hands down the best spa day of my life! Where else can you trek through rice paddies to a beachfront oasis for treatments in open-air bales? Their "Spa Safari" is pure magic—6.5 hours of massages, ocean dips, and treehouse lunches. For adventurers who want pampering without pretension.

2. Amangiri, USA

A concrete-and-sandstone sanctuary in Utah’s canyons. Spiritual and surreal.

3. Borgo Santo Pietro, Italy

This 800-year-old luxury farmhouse hotel features a farm-to-table spa. Every treatment uses their own 100% natural, non-toxic "Seed to Skin" products (made in-house!). Life-changing. Your skin will thank me later.

4. Soneva Jani, Maldives

A heavenly sanctuary of calm. Bespoke treatments soothe and revitalize, all set to the soundtrack of lapping waves and endless ocean views.

5. Six Senses Douro Valley, Portugal

Portuguese vineyards meet biohacking. They analyze your sleep quality, and vino-themed facials use grape-seed extracts. (Yes, spa days here include wine tastings.)

6. The Lana, Dubai

The first Dior Spa in the UAE—all marble, orchids, and J’adore-scented massages.

7. Bawah Reserve, Indonesia

Robinson Crusoe chic. An overwater outdoor spa in the Anambas archipelago. Post-massage, swim in a bioluminescent lagoon. No shoes, no news, no problems.

8. Palazzo Fiuggi, Italy

This medical spa in the Apennines is Oprah-approved—she called it the "best wellness retreat of her life." Longevity-focused treatments paired with a weight-loss cuisine menu. Peak la dolce vita healing.

9. Kulm Hotel St. Moritz, Switzerland

Swiss precision meets 150 years of spa legacy. Their new FaceGym facial (a workout for your face!) uses high-energy kneading to tone 40 facial muscles.

10. Royal Mansour Marrakech, Morocco

A private riad-spa with corridors hidden behind silk walls. Their gilded hammam under mosaic domes makes you feel like Moroccan royalty.
