Nothing relieves stress quite like a good spa day – except this isn’t an ordinary spa. It’s a Japanese bathhouse complete with saunas, hydrotherapy pools, and even a swim-up bar. There’s no better place to go when rejuvenation of the mind, body, and soul is what you’re seeking. Check it out:
Spa Castle is located inside The One Boutique Hotel, so you’ll be just steps away from its rejuvenating waters at any given time.
Several different hydrotherapy pools feature strategically-placed jets that massage the entire body. Enjoy a few drinks at the aqua bar while the water works its magic.
The locker rooms are modeled after traditional Asian bathing houses. With dry + wet saunas, heated mineral pools, and exfoliating scrub services, you’ll leave feeling like a whole new person.
Relax underneath the waterfall in Mystic Pool, letting your shoulders, neck, and back succumb to its gently cascading pressure treatment. Surrounding panoramic views only serve to enhance the already stress-melting experience.
These strange tubes are actually saunas! Each one has its own unique structure and purpose, ranging from a pyramid made of real gold that revitalizes sluggish organs to a charcoal tower where impurities are cleansed from the body.
Last but certainly not least, this is the Hinoki Bath. Constructed with 300-year-old wood, this warm mineral bath lets you soak amidst the calming aroma of ancient pine.
