Post-Holiday Rejuvenation at Spa-Friendly Villas
No better way to kick off the year than by pampering yourself
By Heather Whipps
As much as we’d like to deck-the-halls and joy-to-the-world all year round, it’s a fact that the body couldn’t handle more than its current share of holiday stress. With all the present-buying, cooking, decorating, and keeping the family merry, it’s a wonder anyone ends up on their two feet come January. Toss in plenty of below freezing days and the dread that summer might just be eons away and you’ve cooked up the perfect time for a spa escape.
  
Villa vacations are relaxing in general but, if you’re looking for something a little more zen-focused, some homes are tailor-made for that purpose. Many villas will employ an on-call spa therapist to take care of you right there, or they will arrange for special packages for their guests at nearby spas. The most popular treatments are massages, which can be arranged by CaribbeanWay’s concierge service to happen by the pool, the ocean, in the garden, or anywhere else that strikes your fancy. Facials are a great option too, with the pre-requisite manicure/pedicure combination to go along with it. The more adventurous may opt for a seaweed wrap by the sea – talk about being at one with nature!
To celebrate the opening of their new spa and wellness pavilion in this very spa-conducive time, Baraka Point villa in Virgin Gorda is now offering a special package for guests interested in feeling the spa experience for themselves. Specially-priced treatments and complimentary yoga sessions are offered right at the villa by a trained therapist, who has come to work at Baraka Point from the spas of renowned resorts in the Caribbean and British Columbia. A sample of the treatments available:
Moroccan Coffee & Tea tree Oil Salt Scrub with Hot Oil Massage
Papaya Body Polish
BVI Volcanic Stone Massage
Balance Men’s Facial with Indian Head Massage
A little something extra to relax your tense muscles: from now through February 10, 2006, Baraka Point is offering specially priced Spa Treatment Packages and villa rental at low season rates, including an evening of complimentary sunset cocktails followed by a gourmet dinner.
Check Availability at Baraka Point.

WHAT’S SANSKRIT FOR AHHHH?
The name of Baraka Point’s new wellness pavilion is Aloka, which in Sanskrit can translate alternatively to “light” or "ray of hope". CaribbeanWay agents recently tried out the spa’s services, and will attest to feeling a bit more hopeful about the long winter as a result. |
