Healthy Holidays in the USA with Starwood
With the current drive for us all to lead healthier lifestyles, a spa resort holiday is becoming an ever more popular option. With many spas offering a comprehensive package, from sports and exercise through to a range of health and beauty products, it's easy to see why they've become so popular. Starwood currently have a very large amount of spa resort holidays on offer, across a total of 26 different countries. They have many resorts in holidaying hotspots, meaning you can kick back and relax for just some of your stay, or for the whole of it.
A lot Starwood's spa resorts are in the USA, with spas in six different states, particularly on the east and west coasts. California, Arizona, and Nevada are all popular holiday destinations in their own right, particularly for the more mature traveler. Many of the spa resorts in these states are located in the stunning western countryside such as The Phoenician. This 22,000 square foot resort offers a state of the art fitness centre, a great variety of daily classes, and exercise studio, sauna, steam rooms, jacuzzi, pool, boutique, and meditation atrium. It's also a great vantage point for exploring the Grand Canyon.
Starwood owns four more resorts on the east coast, with a total of three in Florida. A popular choice for a relaxing holiday filled with sea and sand is Spa Atlantic, located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This has a beach nearby, and treatments are themed around the ocean setting. It's also a great location if you want to sample some serious nightlife, because the resort is only thirty miles north of downtown Miami, and there's plenty to see and do in the urban centre of Fort Lauderdale itself.
Hawaii is another of the American states that is now synonymous with recreation and leisure. The island of Maui has provided a popular tourist destination and the island boasts more than enough natural wonders to take your breath away. For a luxury holiday of relaxation and pampering, the Heavenly Spa by Westin provides a top island indulgence, overlooking the Pacific Ocean from the spectacular Ocean View Lounge.
