Four Seasons spas around the world are known for weaving global healing traditions with modern wellness innovation, and this one carries that legacy beautifully. My Signature Honey Nourishing Massage by the talented Efrain was warm, soothing, and deeply restorative \u2014 performed on an extra-wide table for ultimate comfort. The Spa offers a wealth of treatments, from Tibetan Singing Bowls and IV therapies to magical warm honey massages \u2014 all designed to balance, restore, and indulge. Even the hair dryers are Dyson, because yes, they thought of everything. Afterward, I surrendered completely to the Solarium\u2019s soft light and quiet calm. Reclining on an anti-gravity bed with a weighted blanket \u2014 prosecco in hand \u2014 I texted my friend: \u201cI live here now forever.
