If you can handle the chilly temperatures a fantastic place to visit this time of year, for a TRAVEL THERAPY that will truly help launch you into the holiday spirit is the newly renovated Chatham Bars Inn. Known as the Grand Dame of New England’s oceanfront resorts, this charming Cape Cod inn continues to impress by unveiling a new spa and 12 sensational spa suites. If you’re looking for an authentic Cape feeling then you’ll want to stay at the original inn but if you want a fresh take on luxury you have to check out the new spa suites, a first for this part of the country. Here’s why.

 

Built from the ground up, these sensational new suites cater to the idea you don’t just need to be pampered for a few hours at a spa you can continue your pampering 24/7. When I visited they were just finishing up all the suites and I could already tell it was going to be something special and especially something truly unique for this area!

From the 50-inch plasma TV, to your own private sauna, steam shower and infinity edge bathtub, right down to a roaring fireplace and these exclusive suites make you feel like royalty. You’re also just steps away from the new 4000 square foot hydrotherapy pool that’s a work of art itself. The spa suites are set up so you have an exclusive menu of treatments you can choose from that you can get right in your room, but if also you want to experience the new, boutique spa you won’t be disappointed. The design of the spa takes inspiration from the sea and is bathed in soothing blues and greens.

 

One of my favorite touches is that this new spa features these hip individual music pods in the relaxation room. Men also will love it here because you’ll also find plasma TV’s in the men’s locker room. For products you have the decadent Kerstin Florian product line with treatments to match.

 

 

Top on my list of treatments is the signature Caviar Facial that leaves your skin feeling instantly hydrated and rejuvenated. For an anti-aging boost the Vitamin C Facial is packed with antioxidants and for an instant pick me up choose the 30-minute Neck, Back and Shoulder Massage. The signature Lavender Dreams Package is already a standout featuring a heavenly full body scrub, wrap and foot, scalp and body massage. My suggestion is to wrap up your spa experience with a relaxing walk on the beach and then head over the Inn where you can continue to indulge your senses with a traditional English Tea featuring delicious home-baked treats.

During the holidays Chatham Bars Inn pulls out all the stops and decorates from floor to ceiling so its impossible not to get caught up in the holiday magic. There are several great holiday packages you can take advantage of including the new Holiday Spa Getaway – an ideal gift to you or to someone else. The package includes two night’s accommodations in the Inn’s luxurious new spa suites, a spa amenity, plus a $600 credit for Spa services, including massage, skincare treatments and body treatment. Enjoy!
