Singapore conjures up images of high-flying business and vibrant city life and while this image is certainly justified it paints just a small part of the whole picture of this amazing collection of islands in South East Asia. The downtown area of the city is located on the main island and the business and financial activity is matched by the exquisite service for which the city is famed and boundless amenities for both business and leisure travelers. A Singapore spa hotel manages to combine all the necessary facilities for business travelers yet offer sumptuous spa facilities for all.
East meets West too in the spa facilities and treatments on offer within Singapore spa hotels. Indian ayurvedic practices combine with Malaysian, Indonesian and European principles of health and well-being and all come together to represent an authentic and relaxing spa experience. Common spa treatments include Swedish massage, Asian massage, aromatherapy, stone therapy, body scrubs and wraps, facials, reflexology and hydrotherapies.
Central to any Singapore spa hotel experience is the immediate surrounds and within Singapore these are varied but always of the very highest standard available. At first the busy city might seem incongruous with relaxing and luxurious spa facilities but very often the wonderful city views are incorporated into the facility and intensify the sense of calm in the eye of the storm. Spa hotels are very good at creating a space of intimate seclusion and ultimate relaxation which is a world away from the vibrant city environment.
The sights and activities of downtown Singapore represent just a part of the riches on offer in what is a series of islands, much of which are protected from development. There are plenty of opportunities for relaxing amidst lush green tropical surrounds or on the beach and many of the best Singapore spas take full advantage of the wonderful natural environments on offer.
Larger spas will likely have a range of indoor and outdoor facilities many of which may incorporate spa features. There may be dedicated buildings or structures, often laid out in a rustic style in which certain treatments are available such as hydrotherapy, or dedicated suites for couples to share a Singapore spa hotel treatment in blissful surrounds. There will also likely be gardens, water features and other beautiful environments in which to simply relax or take a walk.
They are also likely to offer a more extensive array of leisure facilities which complement the spa procedures. They may include sports facilities such as tennis courts, swimming pools, and perhaps also a fitness suite in which cardiovascular and weight training machines will be available. Group movement classes such as Tai Chi and yoga may also be on offer.
Each Singapore spa hotel will offer a range of signature stand alone treatments as well as spa packages tailored for guests specific needs. Packages are generally available for detox, executive stress release, skin conditioning, or simply for relaxation or rejuvenation.
Salon and beauty procedures are often incorporated into spa menus too and these can include hair and makeup, pedicures, manicures, and often intensive facials designed to enhance skin appearance and condition. Gentlemen’s packages are generally available too. Specialists will be on hand with the right advice to allow guests to make the most of their procedures and individual or group sessions with fitness and yoga instructors may be available too.
Singapore spa hotels will also offer the kind of cuisine which complements the spa treatments. Healthy and nutritious options will be available drawing the best from local and wider fresh produce and there will be other dining options too for those who simply want to indulge in the best cuisine the city has to offer.
In a place where business and commerce go hand in hand with leisure and recreation the hotels are mindful of those with business to conduct during their stay. There will likely be extensive business facilities within the hotel such as business centers complete with all the latest technologies. Guest rooms too will have state of the art facilities in audio, visual, and internet systems.
