Serenity Rules at the Samadhi Spa
A day at the spa is a must-have guilty pleasure. From a Sanskrit word that translates to “a quiet place of blissful awareness,” Samadhi Spa tempts with a cornucopia of treatments chock-full of Caribbean curatives.
Sitting pretty in the Newstead Belmont Hills Golf Resort, the spa offers soothing views of Hamilton Harbour from all-five treatment rooms. This expansive 6,000-square-foot haven of rejuvenation boasts private lounges for ladies and gentlemen, a Jacuzzi, steam rooms, a hydrotherapy suite and a hair, manicure and pedicure salon. In addition to the medley of massages, invigorating activities such as yoga, fitness walks, tennis, qigong and horseback riding are offered to each spa-goer.
Artistically created with warm earthy tones influenced by South Asian traditions, Samadhi is the only spa on the island affiliated with the Atlanta School of Massage and Atlanta Institute of Aesthetics and blends the holistic approach of Ayurveda with Western therapies. “We truly believe in personalising every treatment and educating the client on how to maintain a balanced, healthy way of life,” explains Sanali Senanayake, spa director.
Although the massage menu is extensive, the Samadhi Signature is the most popular with savvy tourists. “This is a healing ritual with deep, fluid sensual strokes and elongating stretches that relieves stress and tension, increases circulation and flexibility, and improves muscle tone,” says Senanayake. “This experience will certainly bring tranquillity to your soul.”
The five-hour aptly named Tranquillity package includes an aromatherapy petal soak, neem body exfoliation, firming facial, manicure and pedicure. Good enough to eat and too good to miss, facials are also popular with spa-goers. Guests can choose from a myriad rejuvenating treatments — from the Thilaka treatment that mixes the skin healers found in yogurt, carrots, cucumbers and honey to the Presto Facial that uses the antiaging benefits of grapes, tangerines, pineapples and cocoa.
“The number of men visiting the spa has increased by leaps and bounds,” says Senanayake. “They are becoming more aware of the therapeutic benefits of body work, as well as the fact that their appearance can be enhanced by facials, manicures and pedicures.” Treatments include the three-hour Gentleman’s Pause, which includes body exfoliation, Samadhi signature massage and espresso facial.
Take a deep breath, exhale and spa your way through a bounty of goodness in the Samadhi Spa where the wise and the weary soak, scour and soothe their way to feeling good.
