Cruise Spa Basics
Cruise travelers typically lead busy lives, making it essential for them to indulge in spa treatments during their cruises.
Although first-time cruisers may not be aware, sea days are when the majority of guests tend to book spa appointments. If you wish to maximize time ashore while still enjoying a spa service, consider planning your treatment online before your cruise or upon boarding. Notably, many cruise ships might offer discounts for spa services when in port, allowing guests to save money while enjoying the luxury of a spa.
Moreover, scheduling treatments early in the morning or during dinner hours can also help avoid crowds.
Cruise ship spas, like that on the Celebrity Reflection, are particularly appealing for those who may not have visited a spa in a traditional setting. For those new to spa treatments, these environments are ideal for first experiences. However, it is advisable to familiarize oneself with proper spa etiquette ahead of your appointment.
Discovering the Persian Garden
The Persian Garden, covering 883 square feet, serves as the relaxation room in AquaSpa. This area features heated, curved tiled beds and surpasses the size of Persian Gardens on other Celebrity ships. It constitutes a peaceful retreat for guests seeking rest before or after spa treatments, or as part of a series of sensory experiences along with related facilities.
Experience at The Hammam
The Hammam provides a modern interpretation of traditional Turkish baths, which typically offer full-body exfoliations and varied-temperature rooms. On the Celebrity Reflection, guests can relax on heated stone slabs in a tranquil environment while enjoying the soothing experience.
Cooling down in The Cold Room
The Cold Room, maintained at 52 degrees, contrasts sharply with the heat of the infrared sauna and aromatic steam rooms. This facility is specifically designed to help tighten pores opened and cleansed in the hotter environments, contributing to an overall rejuvenating experience.
