Spa Day FAQs

What should I bring to a spa day?
It’s best to bring a swimsuit, comfortable clothing, and any personal toiletries you may need. Most spas provide robes, towels, slippers, toiletries and hairdryers, but it’s always good to check in advance.

What age is appropriate for a spa day?

Most spa days require a minimum age of 16, making them suitable for older teens and adults. Some spas are purely for adults, ensuring a more tranquil and relaxing environment. However, we do offer a teen spa day specifically designed for younger guests, providing a wonderful introduction to the spa experience in a safe and comfortable setting.

Are treatments included in every spa day?
Not all spa packages include treatments, but many do. Be sure to check the details of the package you’re purchasing to see if massages or facials are part of the experience.

How far in advance should I book a spa day?
Spa experiences can be popular, especially around Christmas, so it’s a good idea to book in advance to secure your preferred date and time.

Absolutely! Spa vouchers make perfect Christmas gifts, giving the recipient the flexibility to choose their own date and experience.

It’s the perfect way to give the gift of relaxation while letting them choose the spa day that suits them best.
