Escape the winter blues at these overseas spa hotels

Cold, chilly, and with Christmas a distant memory, for all the wellness we can do at home, sometimes you just want a little sunshine.  Here are some of our favourite spa hotels to escape the winter blues…

Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel & Spa

For peace and quiet: Jumeriah Port Soller Hotel and Spa, Mallorca

It’s not the sunniest time of the year, but there’s a bright freshness to Mallorca around now that’s wonderfully tranquil.  The popular holiday island in the Balearics doesn’t attract the crowds until the summer, but for peace, quiet and refreshing light it’s perfect for singles, couples and anyone untethered by the school holidays.  

Stay at Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel & Spa for a luxurious way to experience the Spanish island. Its clifftop position allows for sea views from all around the hotel, including the glass surrounds of the indoor pool and sauna. So swim and stay warm, go trekking, cycling or do a little yoga.  Enjoy a drink or two on your private balcony and dine in style for a total sense of wellness.

Le mas candille france

For superb food: Le Mas Candille, France

Not far from Cannes, for those looking for superb food and wine, it’s hard to beat an escape to France.  The five star hotel sits in one of the most stylish regions of France, surrounded by vines and olive groves.  

The hotel has a Michelin Star gourmet restaurant that’s overseen by chef Xavier Burelle. Meanwhile, the spa has a suite of thermal pools and a Japanese inspired style.  Look out across the cypress trees and you can’t help but feel extremely smug about life.

Soneva Fushi

For total escapism: Soneva Fushi, Maldives

Most of us don’t have to be asked twice if we want to go to the Maldives.  To stay at Soneva Fushi however, is to stay at one of the most awe-inspiring destinations in the world.  

A paradise island but with all the facilities and five star service you could ask for, it’s exceptionally romantic.  Fancy yourself a bronzed goddess with hair flowing and always dressed in your swimsuit? This is the place to be. Stay in villas with private pools and lounge areas, dine under the stars and watch dolphins swim by.
