The recipe for a great holiday calls for a big dose of rest and relaxation. What better way to get your R&R fix than to indulge in a luxurious spa treatment or treat yourself to some serious pampering with a massage or a lazy soak in a Jacuzzi?

Many of the luxury holiday homes in Passepartout Homes’ exclusive property portfolio have spa facilities which offer guests the opportunity to relax and rejuvenate in comfort and style. Here are a few of our luxury villas which offer the most tempting and luxurious spa treatments and facilities:

Villa Riva, Koh Samui, Thailand

Unwind in the whirlpool Jacuzzi which seats 8 persons or have a relaxing massage with a professional masseur to ease your sore muscles. There’s also a dry sauna and steam room to help releases toxins and promote a feeling of well-being and complete relaxation. If you enjoy spending time outdoors, head to the 32-metre infinity pool overlooking the sea, or the semi-private white sand beach.

San Lorenzo Mountain Lodge, South Tyrol, Italy

The special wellness packages on offer at San Lorenzo Mountain Lodge are ideal for stressed-out high profile executives in need of some serious pampering. A full- or half-day package of wellness treatments prescribed by the villa’s well-being coach is sure to awaken your senses and make you feel whole again in the beautiful natural setting of the Dolomite mountains. Treat yourself to a custom full-body massage or a lazy lounge in the sauna infused with natural herbal essences.

If you’re feeling adventurous, try cromotherapy, or colour therapy, in the specially-designed Turkish bath, or experience weightlessness in the outdoor natural spring whirlpool.

Villa La Borghese, Siena, Italy

There are plenty of opportunities to indulge in la dolce vita at Villa La Borghese, a 14-bedroom ancient Tuscan villa which has been lovingly restored in the beautiful historic town of Siena.

The luxury villa has a dedicated wellness centre boasting indoor hot baths, a fully equipped gym, a yoga room, a Turkish bath and two swimming pools. Here you can do as the Romans, by relaxing in the Roman-style baths. First unwind in the tepidarium, a heated room which soothes the body, before moving into the caldarium, a hot and steamy room with a plunge bath which opens the pores of the skin. Finish off in the frigidarium, a cold pool of water which then closes the skin pores. You will feel completely refreshed and invigorated!

Villa Esmeralda is a private 5-bedroom luxury beachfront property just steps away from the beach. The villa has its own spa with a dedicated massage room, a sauna seating 10 adults, and a large luxurious outdoor Jacuzzi. There’s also a fully equipped fitness centre for fitness buffs.
