European Spa Gold List: Angsana Corfu Resort & Spa

Best for: Sustainable sanctuary for the soul

Set high in the hills overlooking Akra Punta bay on Corfu, Angsana Corfu Resort & Spa opened as Banyan Tree Group’s first European flagship property. The 196-room resort, operated and managed under its luxury Angsana brand, offers stunning views of the sea and surrounding mountains, and features a luxurious 1,400sqm spa.

Billed as a Mediterranean sanctuary for the mind, body and soul, Angsana Spa takes a personalised approach to wellness guided by eight wellbeing touchstones – physical vitality, dietary awareness, sleep and rest, learning and development, bonding and connection, sustainable practices, harmony with nature and mind cultivation – with the aim of increasing guests’ sense of connection to themselves and the world around them.

The spa features 11 treatment rooms, indoor and outdoor pool areas, as well as spa gardens with outdoor massage pavilions and a juice bar. A state-of-the-art gym and yoga pavilions complete the wellness offering.

“Angsana is a true oasis for the body and soul,” Angsana spa manager Sandra Amaral told European Spa. “We offer Asian and Mediterranean-inspired face and body treatments that blend traditional eastern and western healing techniques with locally grown and sustainable Corfiot ingredients.

“Banyan Tree’s ethos is about using local products, not only to enhance the guest experience by giving them a sense of place, but also to support the local economy. Our commitment to nature as one of our healing principles means the products used in our treatments are organic and sustainably sourced.”
