The Best Wellness Spa Retreats in Turkey

Best Wellness Spa Retreats in Turkey

 

Spa and Hammam have been part of Turkish culture for the past 1400 years. Some of Istanbul’s marble bath houses have been in use since the early 18th Century. Our contemporary spa retreats may lack the impressive age of some of Turkey’s oldest bath houses but they certainly continue the ethos of their traditional practices.

In Turkish culture, Hammams are domains for cleansing the body: they are predicated on the concept of purifying the soul. The best wellness spa retreats outlined here offer a large variety of hydrothermal experiences and holistic practices, to give you a detoxification in keeping with the customs of the region. So, whether you want that youthful glow or you want to connect to the spiritual energy of the area, you will be well catered for. Luxury accommodation, exceptional coastline, vibrant and intriguing history, makes a spa holiday in Turkey a must for those looking to unwind in comfort.

The Alchemy bar is a buffet of endless organic herbs, oils and salts. Choose what makes up your personal body scrubs from this large array of minerals. Visitors have the option to choose from an array of organic and ethically sourced ingredients: lavender oil, Epsom salt, magnesium flakes and much more.
