In a sense, Canada has it all. A wonderful city - Montreal and Vancouver are the best choices. In the huge countryside, skiing, sailing and the wilderness will last forever. Because visiting Canada is so large, everything is a large business in one trip.
British Columbia's Victoria Newfoundland (St. John & # 39; s) is more than 5,000 kilometers away (London and Riyadh or Tokyo and Calcutta are about the same distance).
It may take 7-10 days to drive from a corner of the country (assuming it will not stop vision on the way). Flight from Toronto to Vancouver takes more than 4 hours.
When talking about a specific destination in Canada, it is better to consider that different area.
In this very vast country, there are several excellent restaurants due to the influence of France. But, among other things, it is fixed in a healthy life, so there are a variety of unparalleled spas in Canada.
If you know that people are coming to Canada for spa treatments (especially from California) from the US - regularly - begin to understand some tourist attractions.
By law, even in most parts of French around Montreal, most languages are bilingual, but you will not have language problems.
Think of all the government and politics, let's concentrate on spa and healthy life instead. That is what many Canadians do.
Occur
The use of languages other than government differs widely from country to country. In most parts of Québec, New Brunswick and Ontario, French is the dominant language. In most other areas, English is dominant. Montreal, Ottawa and Moncton are fluent and bilingual people concentrate. Canada spans six time zones, touching the three seas, covering 9,017,699 square kilometers (3,481,753 square miles). Currently it promotes itself as a country of peace and independently controls. However, it still has a British monarch as head of state. And no, it is not easy to explain.
For spa enthusiasts, Canada is an ideal country to visit. It has all, landscape, wonderful sports, exciting cities. So, how do you choose in this country?
Personal preferences are Vancouver and Vancouver Island. Here is where the spa is coming.
First of all, we are talking about two different destinations, Vancouver Island and Vancouver, which are not on the island of the same name. Nearby - Vancouver is on the mainland. Both are wonderful places. But, very, very different.
Vancouver Island is welcomed by the warmest climate in Canada, the temperature of the coast is usually above freezing temperatures in January, the temperature is warm and not suppressive in the summer. For example, it is 28 to 33 degrees Celsius. However, as the West Coast is typically very wet, there is the effect of the rain shadow. Lake Henderson on the west coast is the most wet place in North America - a very dry peninsula in the state capital Victoria in Saanich on the southeastern coast. In the sense that you can choose, if you remember in the rain, rain is most common in autumn and winter. You are very accurate.
Arriving there is part of the experience that we can use aqueducts with awe in the coastal islands of the Pacific Ocean. Journey from Vancouver by ferry; or from Seattle via the Juan de Fuca Strait on a fast ferry.
Near the center of Vancouver Island, there is the Strathcona State Park of 2,500 kilometers square kilometers. This park is part of the peak group including Comox glacier. Vancouver is not the only island in the area. There are several others.
For example, Gagliano Island is a long and narrow island, the second largest in the Gulf Islands and the most dry. It is 25 kilometers in length and 9 kilometers in width, with a population of about 1.000 people and Saltspring Island has a population of over 12,000 people.
About the spa, there are probably more than 30 in the whole island, so you are not restricted to choices. Mostly it's a destination spa - like a hotel, there stayed there, some of which are on the islands of Vancouver Island. Most of these spas have lifestyle choices. They are meant to keep every visit away.
One big exception. The 1905 Classic Willow Stream Spa at The Fairmont Empress is an urban hotel spa in Victoria on the island. It is a very modern spa, located in something in the Victorian, in the two meanings of the Hotel Grande Temple, The Fairmont Empress.
Many of our spa customers are staying at the hotel, and California people account for the majority for several reasons. You can experience rejuvenation, comfort and calm.
If you stay in this hotel, you will follow the footsteps of very young Shirley Temple, Barbra Streisand, Harrison Ford, and many people, if you can afford it. And, of course, we offer afternoon tea.
The spa itself is much more modern than the Willow Stream - hotel, a combination of tradition and contemporary design. There is a waterfall, marble floor and calm color are attractive. Following the door in an elegant space, the spa experience begins.
All spa treatments start with "spa treatment". This is free. In the Finnish sauna and steam room, a 30-minute ceremony takes 5 minutes each, a Hungarian-style bus takes 10 minutes and a cold water takes a 10-minute break.
As with the other six Fairmont resorts, the Willow Stream Spa is dotted nationwide but it is certainly not luxury and cheap.
Fortunately, locally, there are cheap, sometimes very luxurious places if not local.
The casual King Fisher Oceanside Resort & Spa is a cheaper and more relaxing atmosphere. From this oceanfront resort & spa you can see the Gulf of Tribe, Denman Island, Hornby Island and the mountains of the coast with snow.
This 64-story two-storey hotel has 36 new beachfront suites that peel off the beach rock fireplace, driftwood style furniture, fir wood and cedar. The 14,000 square foot spa has 22 treatment rooms, an outdoor pool, a hot tub / sauna, a fitness room and Pacific Mist Hydro Purse.
I slept very relaxed.
Poets Cove Resort & Spa is quiet and quiet and needs to take a ferry or water taxi. Located on South Pender Island on the east coast of Vancouver Island, overlooking Bedwell Harbor Resort and Marina. You can also take a water taxi from Sydney (Vancouver Island) to Bedwell Harbor or a BC ferry journey.
The hotel has 22 lodges, 15 seaside cottages and 9 country villas.
Coastal trekking Vancouver Island, BC (2009) is for those who can not sleep at the spa. The family-run rest of Comax Valley is all healthy and hiking. Different hikes are scheduled every day from about 100 hiking options in the neighborhood, based on guest's interest and fitness level. All structured programs including yoga session and healthy cooking class are part of this transaction.
There is a spa treatment room, but after a healthy activity there is a spa.
There is Galliano from Vancouver by float airplane for 10 minutes and ferry by 50 minutes. This is a quiet island refugee where most of the inhabitants of the island are engaged in tourism and art.
The Galiano Oceanfront Inn & Spa has its own dock and offers special spa and room packages. You are near Vancouver Island near Vancouver Island, but stay at a hotel that is a spa on an island not belonging to either.
And then we have the Ocean Palm Spa, Sydney. If you are in Australia, the address is spelled incorrectly. This is a new resort spa environment for men and ladies, located in Sydney Waterfront Inn and Spa.
Think that this spa is totally focused on spa treatments, even though it is part of the inn. All other facilities are also available.
At Vancouver Island Oh Spa again Courtenay is on the Courtney River in the Comox Valley. It has a range of exclusive treatments and natural products, which is part of the island's atmosphere.
Brentwood Bay Lodge and Spa is located in the heart of Victoria's wine country. The spa is called the essence of life, and some of its treatments work with locally harvested seaweed. Heated basalt and aromatherapy.
And it will continue. There are at least 30 facilities in this area, but most are suitable for hotel stay / spa experiences. It is not a place to fly for 3 hours of treatment.
I will come to the city of Vancouver that is not on Vancouver Island right now, which is probably the most livable city in the world. Reminiscent of Hong Kong - Chinese are 1 in 5 out of 2 million residents, but urban areas have more style and design understanding.
Because of the high proportion of the Chinese population, Chinese food is very conspicuous. People in Vancouver think that it is the best Chinese cuisine in the world. In that respect they are wrong. But, it is indeed very, very good.
It is probably the best in the world as a designed city. There is a general agreement that Vancouver is one of the world's greatest cities. Certainly the most rewarding city.
When it becomes a spa, the problem counts it. Probably more than 100. Certainly every need is met and part of the spa is seriously a world class.
A good example is Sorace Spa with all kinds of packages including Couples · Romantic · Getaway, Bino Celpie, Sole · Signature · Divine · Bride, New · Mama · Renewal etc. (If you operate a spa in a highly competitive area, you need to think about a new intensive therapy that makes your spa unique.
In the Holiday Inn you can use it for both houses and day spa.
Vida Spa is big in Vancouver, there are three of them: Sheraton Vancouver Wall Center Hotel, Sutton Place Hotel, The Westin Bayshore, Whistler Seattle. The seven types of Ayurveda therapy are dominant in one of three doshas (Vata, Pitta or Kapha), which everyone is based on a typical idea. Ayurvedic treatments can work from the inside to enjoy optimal health conditions to guide your doctor to perfect harmony. Vida has a customized Ayurvedic product line for various doha and sends hints to clients about how to eat your dish. For the record writer dosha is Vata.
Then, a reasonable way is on the other side of the country. Montreal is in Quebec (there is also a small town in Quebec). Montreal is a Canadian in French and history is wonderful, but there is a spa that can not easily be counted. Probably hundreds, and almost everything is day spa. After spending several hours, let's refresh and relax and make the perfect atmosphere to enjoy local cuisine. Probably because of that French tradition. Montreal's underground city is a set of interconnected shopping malls (both above and below the ground) in downtown Montreal and its surroundings. This is the world's largest underground complex. We go there in winter, the weather is completely irrelevant.
Because there are so many, there are no points in the list of all spa in Montreal.
Just a few examples from a very small area called downtown Montreal. Perhaps you can make your own discovery very closely in close proximity to the hotel you are staying in. There are many spas of that.
Izba Spa is on the 12th floor of Hotel Le Crystal. We incorporate the traditional Russian Banya (steam bath) into Izba Spa, incorporating contemporary methods of therapeutic massage and holistic therapy to encourage health, promote rehabilitation, and relieve stress Is called.
Rainspa is located at Place d & amp; Armes Hotel & Suites 55. Old Montreal's St-Jacques Street has a traditional Middle Eastern steam bath, the hammam. Rainspa also offers high quality paramental treatments such as microdermabrasion, intense pulsed light, VelaSmooth Spa anti-cellulite treatment.
Spa Savanna 4032 Notre-Dame West is a urban spa with various massage therapies and advanced skin care treatments.
Spa Eastman at 666 Sherbrooke West was the first city spa in downtown Montreal. It is now being refurbished, but there is still a tremendous view from the panoramic lounge, offering a wide range of treatments.
4650 Boulevard's Espace Nomad Holistic Spa St-Laurent is called Montreal's first organic spa. We offer massage, yoga, spa treatment, product line inspired by Indonesian beauty ceremony.
Relatively close to Montreal, Toronto, Canada's largest lively and modern city, is located in the immediate vicinity of the small Ottawa, the seat of the government. The number of spas is again very, very nice. Elmwood Spa Toronto is in downtown Toronto, and the couple's suite has two treatment stations in both Royal and Sapphire Suites, a fireplace and an indoor shower under the ceiling of the bedroom.
90 minutes from downtown Toronto to Stein (Ste Anne), Canada's oldest famous spa in Grafton, Ontario. Residential spa with outdoor hydrotherapy option, there is a large swimming pool, field-stone lap pool all year round, hot tub and so on. Plus, of course, the full menu of treatment and treatment. It is not cheap, but the whole experience.
The only place with experience of three spas in Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Montreal, Toronto must be a list of visitors, but there is no doubt. There is a spa throughout Canada.
Please bring Ottawa, the city of government with all its meaning. However, it probably has a Holtz Spa which is one of the most authentic spa experiences in Canda. It has special things that are the spirits of the forest. It is a unique 80-minute experience including oscillatory resonance of Canadian trees' essence, an "oscillatory healing experience". Following the genealogy of Batch Flower Remedy, Tree Essence is believed to have a special healing nature dedicated to emotional happiness and vitality. & # 39;
This includes relaxing tree essence pregnancy after pregnancy.
After that, there is Infinima in Stephai about 15 minutes by car from Old Québec. This is really green & # 39; It is to minimize the use of all electricity and maximize the use of natural materials.
The interior is wonderful and as you can imagine, the treatment follows the routine of the green substitute habits. In fact, it is a comprehensive spa treatment that gives excellent examples of ways to minimize the use of energy.
Then there is the Spa Ofuro in Morin Heights in Quebec. This is a natural spa of Japan. Ofuro has a full menu of spa services including exotic sound treatments such as Summo, Tao, Yin, and Yang.
And, it goes. Endlessly. Probably in all cities concentrated in Vancouver and Vancouver Island, there are abundant spas. Once you are there, there is no doubt that Canada is one of the great spa destinations in the world. Great cuisine, amazing scenery, comfortable and welcoming population are added.
