Sensual Spas
Relaxing and Romantic
by Dave Shultz
If you've ever been to a spa and received the full
treatment, you know how wonderful it can make you feel. Take a hint
guys! Women love spas. Nothing puts them in a better mood than a
few days of massage, facials, and herbal wraps. Of course, if
you've never been to a spa yourself, you're in for a real treat. So,
consider a trip to a spa resort to put your sweetheart in a relaxed mood
that will take all the stress out of "Yes."
Sheraton Langkawi Beach Resort
Chavana Spa in Malaysia will give you and your honey the
opportunity to experience the Mandara style of relaxation and rejuvenation
through its exotic range of all-natural facial, body and massage treatments.
Located on Langkawi’s western coastline, the Sheraton
Langkawi Beach Resort sits unobtrusively amidst 38 acres of unspoiled tropical
woodlands overlooking the Andaman Sea. It is situated 6.4 km from the airport
and 22 km from Kuah town, the island’s commercial centre.
A special
ambiance is created through the combination of spacious, warm interiors and the
natural beauty of the surroundings. When building the resort, great effort was
made to preserve much of the forest sanctuary.
The resort’s 231 rooms and suites rest on gently
undulating slopes under a canopy of swaying palms. Full-length French windows
open out onto spacious balconies, offering majestic views over the Andaman Sea
or the tranquil resort grounds. Well finished in natural hardwoods and local
fabrics, the décor has a rustic aura and all rooms are equipped with modern
amenities.
You can relax by the pool with its breathtaking ocean
views, enjoy sumptuous cuisine from the resort’s three restaurants, explore the
pristine sandy coves or enjoy the range of activities on offer – including
tropical woodland treks, an array of water sports, golf, tennis and fitness
centre. There's more to life than relaxing on a massage table.
Set on a secluded edge of the property cosseted by the
tropical woodlands, Chavana Spa comprises four Double Villas and a Tranquility
Centre. All Villas have private bathroom and intimate tropical garden, while
two also feature an outdoor oversized bathtub and garden shower. Decorated in
Balinese style to reflect the flavor of the treatment range, each spa villa also
offers enchanting ocean views. The Tranquility Centre houses the Spa Reception,
Spa Boutique and a manicure and pedicure salon.
The exotic
facial, body and massage treatments are based on the ancient beauty, healing and
rejuvenation secrets of various Asian cultures, with Balinese traditions
featuring prominently.
In addition to the range of individual treatments, Chavana
Spa will offer an enticing array of packages up to two and a half hours in
length, allowing you the opportunity to truly immerse yourself in the spa
experience.

Royal Hideaway Resort and Spa
One of my favorite travel memories is sitting on a hotel
veranda in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, eating breakfast and watching the boats
sail by. Unfortunately, the moment was not shared with the love of my life
so I promised myself that someday I would go back and enjoy that beautiful
village with my partner. Now, I know where I will stay when I do go back.
The Royal Hideaway.
This beautiful 13 acre resort is only 45 minutes down the
Yucatan coast from Cancun International Airport but it's a world away from
anything stressful. Surrounded by deep blue ocean and lush green jungle,
the Royal Hideaway offers luxurious living. Each guest room is complete
with stately wooden beds, marble floors and whisper-light linens. You'll
also find amenities such as a hydromassage bathtub, spacious separate shower,
satellite TV and a personal stereo system.
There are four
distinctive dining options and they like to call them gourmet-inclusive.
You can have a delightful breakfast at dawn or luxurious dining a la carte where
foods of the finest flavor and preparation are blended beautifully with
laughter, romance and moments to savor for a lifetime.
Their world class
spa offer invigorating treatments such as facials, body scrubs and wraps and a
myriad of massage therapies. They also have the distinction of being a
state-of-the-art Thalassotherapy Marine Care Center Spa. There are six
pools including two freshwater pools, one saltwater pool and three relaxing
pools that capture the calm of the Mexican Caribbean and provide couples with
moments of complete relaxation and romance.
Of course, like any other luxury resort, you'll find
outstanding shopping in the boutique, jewelry boutique, cigar store and gift
shop and the logo and sundry shop. And, if you're so inclined, there are
lots of water and land sports and activities including a world famous 18 hole
golf course designed by Robert von Hagge.

A spa resort can be both relaxing and invigorating at the
same time. A perfect place to go for romance and rejuvenation and for the
seriously inclined to pop the question. How could she possibly decline
when you've made such a serious effort to pamper her in paradise?
