Spa at the Tivoli Victoria

Elements Spa By Banyan Tree
The top floor of the Tivoli Victoria is the place to go to unwind. Here you can enjoy sweeping vistas of the fairways of the Victoria golf course and of the stunning marina while you’re pampered in this impressive 1200m2 wellness centre by a team of professional therapists trained in the Academia Banyan Tree, in Thailand.

There are seven treatment rooms, one heated indoor swimming pool with terraces, a sauna, Jacuzzi, hydro-massage and relaxation areas. All the treatments boast a long lineage, having been passed down from generation to generation.

The signature (or at least the most special) treatment of this spa is the Hot Stones package of 180 minutes. Inspired by the Asian origins of the Banyan Tree Spa, it starts with a exfoliation, based on marine algae, to remove dead cells. A body wrap and a facial massage is followed by complete body cleansing, preparing the body for the soft, hot stones massage with sesame oil. This exerts pressure on the energy points, alleviating muscle tension and promoting a healthy skin, circulation and the elimination of toxins from the body.

Other treatments include, but are certainly not limited to, the following:

FACIALS

• All facial treatments start off with a reinvigorating back massage, followed by your choice of facial. Each treatment ends with a head, neck and shoulder massage to envelop you in a sensation of total ecstasy.
• Anti-Ageing – Aimed at mature skin, this facial will result in a firmer, more youthful complexion. Banyan Cleansing – Suitable for all skin types, this signature facial rejuvenates and enlivens your skin. Acting on existing lines and wrinkles, watch them smooth before your very eyes. This facial treatment restores skin elasticity.
• Purifying – Targeting oily skin, this facial eradicates impurities in the upper-epidermal layers. Fresh-faced can be your future as well as your past.

MASSAGES

• Essence of Earth - Lie back and relax as your masseur applies long, languorous strokes to your tired body. Later, the thumbs of the therapist will massage your pressure points to achieve a full body balancing.
• Island Dew - Designed with sensitive skin very much in mind, this massage uses Soothing Oil, a blend of rose, plai, chamomile and vitamin E. Refresh parts of your body you’d forgotten you had.
• Lomi Lomi – Born of Hawaii, the heat generated from this massage is deep, with the masseur using thumbs, palms and elbows for maximum effect. Loosening muscles, you’ll feel a whole new person after this body treatment.

A range of hand and foot treatments, including manicure and pedicure, as well as depilatory waxing, is also offered.
