Best spa? - Anguilla
 
My husband and I have enjoyed trips to Thailand, South Pacific and Mexico where we stayed in spa resort with private bungalows.We enjoy daily spa treatments in a private, serene environment. I would appreciate any comparisons/assessments of spa facilities at CJ, CA or Moullihana.

Is the spa located remotely from the other facilities?

Can you hear external, distracting noises in the spa?

How would you rate the masseuses and spa menus?

I've used the spas at the three hotels and they are all good. My favorite, however, is the one at Malliouhana. It is a separate building and has outdoor rooms for massages, which are quite nice. I like the Balinese massage. Cuisinart also has a nice spa with divided outdoor space. Cap Juluca is finishing additional spa rooms, but until now most treatments have been done in the guests' rooms or patios.

thanks, ALR. I've read comments about children at Malliouhana. Is it possible to enjoy time there away from children?

Malliouhana has very cleverly set up a Children's Place away from the adult swimming pool and formal dining room. So although there may be families there, they've set it up so that everyone has their own space if they so choose.

If you want a private massage in room or on your balcony highly recommend Susi Schroeder--cell 1-264-8399--E mail [email protected]. She does massages at Ku' but is not a Ku' employee and does outcalls. Had two sports massages and she is excellent. Probably the best massage I've ever had.

Ditto on Susi-- she is excellent!

CuisinArt is one of the top rated spas of the world, and Anguilla is one of those places where you instantly go into relax mode on stepping out the plane. Found Malliouhana snooty.
