Bellagio reopens with new design and treatments

Innovative 65,000-square-foot Spa & Salon Bellagio Reopens
within $375 Million Spa Tower

Soothing water, glowing candles and elements of the earth balanced with contemporary architecture create the stage for a pampering and rejuvenating experience not soon forgotten at the redesigned Spa & Salon Bellagio.

With the December 2004 opening of Bellagio’s Spa Tower, the only Las Vegas resort casino ever to receive the AAA Five Diamond Award built on its unrivaled reputation for luxury and service. An integral part of the new tower’s design includes a significant expansion of Spa & Salon Bellagio allowing the resort to better meet guests’ needs and introduce an extraordinary list of new services. Unique design elements combined with an international array of innovative treatments and specially trained therapists provide the ultimate indulgent experience.

The architectural elements of the spa reveal an overall design based on the natural philosophies of Zen. Sleek, clean lines combine with natural materials such as travertine, granite, bleached walnut and onyx to balance a contemporary feel with the warmth of natural elements. Honoring the origins of the word spa from the Latin words salus per aquae (which means health through water), reflecting pools, water walls and illuminated aqua-colored glass are used throughout. Accents of Nephrite Jade and handblown glass also are incorporated into the décor. The result is a space that is both inviting and soothing.

The unique, tranquil surroundings are just the beginning of this new spa experience. Spa Bellagio’s menu incorporates a fusion of treatments discovered around the world and perfected at the resort. Some of the more distinct services include: Gem Therapy; Thai Yoga Massage; Indian Head Massage; Ashiatsu Massage, Shiatsu massage performed with the feet; and Balinese Massage, which combines Hindu, Chinese and European techniques. Ideal for pregnant women or those with tight muscles, the Watsu treatment is a stretching massage performed in a special pool with water warmed to body temperature. Also known as Water Shiatsu, the treatment is derived from a Japanese healing technique. Based on an Egyptian ritual, the Egyptian Gold treatment leaves the body exfoliated, moisturized and luminescent. Real gold is dusted on the face and body leaving the guest ready for a dazzling night on the town.

Recognizing the growing interest of men in spas, Bellagio created amenities and a treatment menu specifically for men, one of the fastest growing segments of spa goers. The men’s spa area features an added bonus – its own outdoor relaxation balcony overlooking the pool. Within Salon Bellagio, a private Barber Room provides Straight Razor Shaves using steamed towels and Art of Shaving products.

With group “spa-ing” on the rise for brides/bridesmaids, mother/daughter excursions, and friends looking for a weekend getaway, several areas within Spa & Salon Bellagio were designed with groups in mind. To enhance the fun, the Watsu Room and secluded manicure/pedicure areas allow for beverages and food to be served upon request.

For guests focused on maintaining their fitness regime when traveling, Spa Bellagio makes it easy, featuring a 6,000-square-foot Fitness Center overlooking the pool and Mediterranean gardens. A separate check-in, a secure locker area for small items, and state-of-the-art treadmills, bikes, elliptical trainers and Pilates equipment are among the new amenities. Flat-screen televisions located within mirrored walls help create an environment that makes getting in shape feel almost effortless. The Bamboo Studio, a 1,000-square-foot exercise room complete with bamboo flooring, was designed for classes ranging from Pilates and kickboxing to yoga and individual activities. Special programs and speakers have been scheduled throughout the year.

To continue the experience at home, 12 of the world's best spa and beauty product lines, including Pevonia, Jurlique, Nars and Kérastase, used in the Spa & Salon are available for purchase. In addition, Spa Bellagio's private label line features salt and sugar scrubs, massage oils and shower gels. Bellagio’s body butter is offered in four signature flavors: Pomegranate, Mango, Green Tea Bamboo and Lavender Vanilla.
