Irish Tatler’s annual spa awards are a favourite event in the calendar and this year we were thrilled to see so many of our favourite spa destinations rewarded for their hard work.

Irish Tatler Therapist of the Year

With commendations going to both the ultra stylish g Hotel and Druids Glen Hotel and Golf Resort, Therapist of the year is a coveted title that goes to therapists who really show exceptional intuition, dedication and talent. This year’s winner was Shona Fitzsimmons at the beautiful and luxurious Slieve Donard Resort and Spa.

Meanwhile, Massage of the Year included commendations for Kilronan Castle – the lovingly restored hotel and spa on the shores of Lough Meelagh in Roscommon, and the majestic Powerscourt Hotel and Spa Resort, which was also named Best Luxury Resort Spa in Ireland at the recent World Luxury Spa Awards.

Other key winners included Galgorm Resort and Spa for innovation – the impeccable spa resort in Co.Antrim joined Spabreaks.com this year and brings with it a unique approach to both luxury and wellbeing, incorporating both true health and fitness alongside indulgence. Aghadoe Heights and Galgorm Resort and Spa were also given regional awards for excellence.

Congratulations to all those involved!
