Treat yourself and your partner to a weekend stay at Palm Springs most luxurious resort.
Nestled at the base of the majestic Santa Rosa Mountains, this desert hideaway has been the personal refuge of Hollywood celebrities and travellers from around the globe since 1926.
One of the first things you’ll notice when you pull up is the explosion of colorful Bougainvillea blooms draped over arches, fountains and doorways. As you make your way to your room, you’ll be pleasantly pleased; to see how the masterful layout and hacienda style architecture creates a charming village style atmosphere whilst still giving you a secluded and personal experience.
Each set of rooms has it’s own private pool area with lounges which means you have everything at your doorstep!
While you could easily spend hours each day lounging by the pool or on the golf course, a visit to the award-winning Spa La Quinta is a must. Spa fans will be happy to know that the spa offers a quiet and peaceful respite as well as, the hottest therapeutic treatments designed to promote wellness and self-discovery.
Once your pampering session starts you won’t want to leave… My spa experience started with a soak in the private garden bath with a calming, aromatherapy blend of wild lavender and rose. My body was then massaged with long sweeping movements using warmed stones and geranium and sage essential oils.
I was then treated to their BT-Micro Natural Facelift, which incorporates both ultrasonic and micro-current technologies to infuse plant stem-cell serum after a white tea antioxidant mask and herbal enzyme exfoliation. My skin felt firm and looked smooth and plumped. I was thrilled with the result.
I then relaxed in the gardens sipping chilled, cucumber water and indulging in a fresh platter of fruit.
I left feeling peaceful and with a sense of wellbeing. I think it goes without saying that today’s spa treatments are a whole lot more than just a luxurious time-out. They actually make a meaningful difference to our health!
