Spa Profile: The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Anguilla
Nestled between two turquoise bays on the island of Anguilla in the British West Indies, Four Seasons Resort Anguilla is the perfect Caribbean island getaway—just miles away from St Maarten and St Barts, it offers guests easy access to neighboring islands via boat ride, while at the same time providing ultimate privacy and seclusion.
The resort’s Spa is a seaside sanctuary, offering a range of unique island-inspired services along with Four Seasons’ signature experiences, in addition to skin care, hair and beauty services. Guests can enjoy services at the seaside spa, in the fresh sea air of a spa cabana, or the comfort and privacy of their own room, suite or villa. We chatted with Spa Director Toni Sullivan, who recommends favorite treatments, insider tips, splurge-worthy services, and much more:
Why You’ll Love It: Guests love the treatments, the employees, and the view/location of the spa. It’s directly on the water and has endless views of tranquil turquoise waters.
Key Features: The Spa offers a steam room and outdoor relaxation areas.
Bonus: Guests are surprised by the relaxation area overlooking the water with a pool. They also like that they can order lunch and enjoy the ambiance.
Insider’s Tip: Be sure to arrive early and plan to stay late to enjoy the infinity edge pool and relaxation area. Ask to keep the doors open and listen to the waves during your treatment. Soft music accompanies the treatment, but the natural sounds through the open doors are very healing as well.
Snacks Served: Fruit, nuts, a variety of flavored waters.
Unique Treatment: The Sea of Life Facial is a deeply hydrating, luxurious service that replenishes moisture-deprived skin. A thorough, nourishing cleanse is followed by a revitalizing mask designed to remove dead, dull skin and encourage fresh, healthy cells to surface. Your skin is then infused with a moisture-boosting, multivitamin serum combined with a host of powerful antioxidants. The goal is to restore moisture to dry, overworked skin and help combat the signs of aging.
Also, our Caribbean Journey is a multi-faceted treatment that is perfect for the weary traveller. First, enjoy the signature Sea of Life Facial to add hydration and boost cellular metabolism. Next, your therapist performs an exclusively designed leg treatment and foot massage to return life and energy to your legs and feet. You’ll feel pampered from head to toe.
Splurge Treatment: The Organic Facial. Nelly De Vuyst is our certified-organic, luxury skin care line used to deliver neuro-relaxing, regenerating and moisturizing plant extracts, as well as patented vitamin C, amino acids and fragmented hyaluronic acid. Your skin feels immediately moisturized and firm. This treatment is ideal for hypersensitive skin and environmentally conscious clients.
Another splurge-worthy service is the Blue Tranquility in a waterfront cabana. Like the turquoise bays of Anguilla, this gentle and flowing massage will lull you into a state of deep relaxation and peace. Escape to serenity and leave feeling renewed and refreshed.
Insider’s Favorite: The island of Anguilla is known as “rainbow city” for our abundance of beautiful rainbows—occasionally double rainbows. With this double inspiration, you will enjoy the luxury of two therapists taking care of you at the same time, from head to toe. While one esthetician performs the “Sea of Life” facial, another therapist provides an exclusively designed leg and foot massage. This treatment will revive your weary body, helping you recover from the stress of travel, work or exercise. It’s the best of both worlds with double the pleasure at once.
