Fodor's Expert Review Valeo Spa
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
This isn't your typical spa, although you can get typical treatments if you like. Focused on wellness, the sprawling, newly renovated space includes a fitness center, pool, and elegant, understated locker and transition rooms, where you're offered a glass of wine at the end of your treatment. Men and women will feel comfortable in their separate areas, but there's also a couples suite for those so inclined. In Valeo's "clarity chambers"—based on Turkish or Moroccan hammams—guests are warmed by a fireplace and heated stone benches and floors. At the center is an oval-shape "belly stone"—a slab of heated marble used for body treatments or just for relaxation.
