The resort's European-style Royal Spa, for its part, was ranked one of the top 10 spa resorts in the world in Cond Nast Traveler 's 1997 Readers' Choice Poll. There's no quicker way for a couple to feel like king and queen than by signing up to be pampered at the Royal Spa. While there may be nothing distinctively Bahamian or new-fangled about this spa, it is appealing precisely for its comprehensive range of traditional European spa services. You and your other half might start off with a hydrotherapy treatment, such as a Hungarian kur bath, containing minerals and trace elements derived from an underwater spring. Or, try a thermal mineral Turkish body scrub to exfoliate the skin and improve micro-circulation.
Massage is another extremely popular treatment at the spa.
Choose from among Swedish, reflexology, and the highly recommended aromatherapy massage, a fragrant and relaxing treatment using custom-blended essential oils to balance the mind, body, and spirit. Wraps and massages can be experienced by partners at the same time in the same treatment room. Facials, the longstanding favorite of female spa clients, come in a wide variety at the Royal Spa. Appropriately enough for couples visiting the spa, any of these facials can be customized for men. The Royal Spa also offers hot and cold plunge pools and separate men's and women's eucalyptus steam rooms, saunas, showers, locker rooms, fully stocked vanity areas, and locker rooms with robes and towels.
