DIOR SPA HÔTEL DU CAP-EDEN-ROC

Antibes, France 

Hidden within the immaculate grounds of Hôtel Du Cap-EdenRoc, the Dior Spa is inspired by the rocks that the hotel sits upon and its azure Mediterranean surrounds. Loved by A-listers, the tranquil designer spa's interiors are swathed in Dior fabrics and it offers face and body rituals designed for deep relaxation. Choose from decadent treatments such as the Escale à Eden-Roc ritual with semi-precious stones, or a multi-sensory Constellations body massage in one of four treatment suites including the garden-set Gazebo. For a deep sense of calm and all-over radiance, book in for the Roc Affusion Suite, an onyx-covered room where you can relax under choreographed water jets. Make sure you make time for the spa's steam and sauna to walk away feeling truly rejuvenated.

With an open-aired fitness studio boasting sweeping views of the turquoise lagoon also at the resort, this sanctuary takes self-care to new levels.
