AUSTRIA / Lanserhof Lans 5* Website
Phenomenal. Lanserhof Lans has a ringside view of the Nordkette Alps, which fling up spectacularly above the Tyrolean city of Innsbruck. Often snow- capped, these big, brooding mountains are so close that you can’t stop gawping at them through the glass walls. The health centre sits at the foot of the 2,260m hump of Patscherkofel, whose slopes attract skiers in winter. Year - round are fabulous walking and Nordic walking trails weaving deep into silent forest, with snapshot views of the Alps through the tall firs and spruces. Innsbruck, five miles (eight kilometres) away, is where you’ll find the airport and main station (pick-ups are available - just say the word). Should you be able to tear yourself away from the spa for an afternoon, the Tyrolean capital has a storybook medieval Old Town, topped off with a grand Hapsburg Palace. The Lanserhof isn’t just another luxury hotel - it’s a medical spa in the truest sense. A stay of up to three weeks is optimum for best results, but a week is the bare minimum. After an initial consultation with your assigned doctor, you launch into an individually tailored, holistic programme of detox regimes, fasting, therapies and relaxation, based on the revolutionary approach of Austrian physician FX Mayr, who believed that a clean gut is the key to good health, as well as plenty of rest and exercise. 16

Designed to meld with the land, suites and villas with pools belie a remarkable sense of space, opening to fragrant gardens or the beach, where speedboats lie waiting to zip between secret coves and the nearby islands of Spetses and Hydra.

ITALY / Villa Paradiso 4* (Clinical Beauty) Website
The owner, Joëlle Vassal, and her medical team had decided to venture into a pioneering project bound to prove extremely successful, also thanks to their passion and determination. Their intention was not to create an actual clinic, but rather a health center that was reliable, effective from the health care standpoint, and exuding an evocative charm. The founders’ goal was fulfilled when Gardone Riviera, by the shores of Lake Garda, was selected as the perfect location of the center. And thus, Villa Paradiso Clinical Beauty was born. The Global Wellness project was further enhanced in 2001, with the creation of La Maison du Relax. Villa Paradiso Clinical Beauty and La Maison du Relax have always aimed at the prevention and treatment of all those factors that inevitably lead to aging, not only in connection with physical appearance, but as an overall phenomenon, considered from a holistic perspective.

History Since its establishment more than half a century ago, Hotel Marbella Club has accumulated a wealth of history, full of extraordinary and unforgettable moments. The beach resort in Spain has been a meeting place for the international jet-set: aristocrats, stars of the entertainment world, business leaders and famous figures from all over the world. It all started in 1946, when Prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe and his father, Prince Max, visited Marbella with the idea of buying some land. The following year, Alfonso purchased Finca Santa Margarita as a family residence. As the number of visitors to the ‘finca’ steadily grew, so did the property, and eventually the Prince, sparked with the pioneering enthusiasm and the visionary ideas that distinguish those who are ahead of their time, was able to make his dream come true, transforming his private residence into an exclusive Marbella club. From that point on, Marbella boutique hotel has come to be recognized the world over as one of the most prestigious establishments in the hotel world. And the Prince’s vision has become reality with the Marbella Club Hotel • Golf Resort & Spa that we know today.

It helps to strengthen your immune system, activate yourself healing powers, treat a wide range of chronic illnesses and increase your general vitality and wellbeing.

SWITZERLAND / Kurhaus Cademario Hotel & Spa 5* Website
When you arrive at Kurhaus Cademario you’ll understand why people believe in the healing properties of a mountain location. Situated 850m above sea level, simply breathing the air feels like a cleansing experience; the views over Lake Lugano and the Malcantone mountains are magnificent, and the health resort takes full advantage of its beautifully sunny position and generous 25 acres of parkland. Head to the outdoor pool to enjoy the sunshine and take in the amazing views, or take a hike or bike ride through the alpine countryside, before heading to the outstanding restaurant for dinner. The chicly luxurious rooms are calming and cozy, designed with deep relaxation in mind. And with Italy right on the doorstep, the vibe of the resort is the perfect marriage of Mediterranean charm with Swiss precision and quality of life.
