Serene Indulgence at The Savoy Hotel London: A Luxurious Spa, Beauty, and Fitness Oasis - Unveiling the Ultimate Relaxation During an Incredible Weekend Stay
For our anniversary weekend at The Savoy, I booked a few extras — spa treatments, dinner, bar reservations, and a champagne afternoon tea in the Thames Foyer. ‘Mrs’ The Private Traveller can be a little spa-averse, so I kept treatments short and sweet. As for me, I’ve yet to discover a massage that’s too long!
Thai Square Spa: A Tranquil Oasis in the Heart of London
I do love a traditional Thai massage, so when I had the chance to go and review the Thai Square Spa, just off London’s Trafalgar Square, I jumped at the chance. Although Thai Square Spa has been operating since 2010 (formerly in Covent Garden) it moved to this new site in Northumberland Street in 2016.

Rejuvenation Oasis: Exploring The Retreat at The Londoner - A Super-Boutique Spa Review in London
The Londoner has been on my go-to list since I knew it was opening, so we booked as soon as we could travel to London. It certainly did not disappoint. The hotel (super-boutique as it’s described) is a wonderful collection of different spaces, and a real focus for me was The Retreat.
Indulge in Bliss: Exploring the Auriga Spa Experience at Capella Ubud, Bali
I’ve had Capella Ubud on my go-to list for some time, having seen it featured when it opened first back in 2018 and having been aware of Capella Hotels & Resorts previously. We originally booked in September 2019 for travel a year later, but with all the Covid restrictions and implications we’ve only managed to get there in September 2022, some three years on.
Revitalizing Retreat: Exploring Chablé Maroma, Mexico's Paradigm of Wellness
Having had to rearrange a trip to Palm Springs in California USA due to Covid, we decided to rebook for Modernism Week in 2022 but wanted to have a relaxing vacation somewhere else first. We therefore decided to opt for Mexico for two weeks, and I settled on a three-centre trip across Puebla (a UNESCO world heritage site) outside of Mexico City, then two Chablé Hotels on the Yucatan Peninsula.
Revitalize & Relax: Unveiling Raffles Spa, Seychelles (Praslin)
With not travelling as much during Covid-lockdowns and restrictions on spa treatments, reviews have been light on the ground to now. Thankfully with the ability to travel to the Seychelles for Christmas we’ve been able to get away long-haul and be able to spend Christmas far from UK weather and the get-together restrictions.
Pampered Bliss: Exploring The Villa Spa Experience at Hotel Villa Dubrovnik, Croatia
This is my first ever dedicated spa review - if you’ve read any of my hotel reviews you will know that I’m a huge fan of a spa treatment and invariably will also try out some in any hotel we stay with a spa.
