The long-awaited Spa Serein has opened its doors at the luxurious Silver Cloud Hotel at the Point Ruston waterfront, offering a sanctuary for relaxation, refreshment, and rejuvenation of the mind and spirit. As you step inside, your senses will be immediately engaged by the soothing ambiance, the fragrant essential oils, the beautifully appointed facilities, and the tranquil water feature, all harmonizing with the cool colors that echo the waterfront setting.
A Haven of Serenity
The name "Serein" itself evokes a sense of calm, referring to a fine rain or mist falling from a cloudless sky at sunset - the moment when the sun dips behind the Earth, ushering in peace and tranquility. Spa Serein aims to capture this essence, providing guests with an oasis where they can truly unwind and enjoy a range of luxurious services.
Indulgent Treatments and Services
Spa Serein delivers on its promise of luxury with a comprehensive menu of treatments, including specialized massage and body services, facials, and hand and foot treatments. These highly efficacious treatments utilize sustainably harvested and locally sourced organic ingredients from the sea and the earth, ensuring a natural and revitalizing experience.
Each spa treatment begins with a short ritual designed to relax your mind and body. This ritual involves a specially blended aromatic inhalation derived from the Earth and the Sea, followed by the gentle ringing of chimes to signal the beginning and end of each treatment, creating a serene and immersive experience. Guests can also enjoy the benefits of an infrared sauna before or after their treatment, further enhancing relaxation and detoxification.
