T R E N T I N O a l to a d i g e Even if Trentino Alto Adige is not as popular as Tuscany or Sicily to first time visitors of Italy, the region has its own unique appeal especially to those who love travelling on their own. There are also various spa and wellness options that a weary traveller can relax into after a day of exploring and hiking the secluded alpine lake of Trentino. There is a palm-lined promenade of a spa, complete with luxurious amenities and natural features that make a spa and wellness experience a notch higher. Aside from being an off the beaten path of mass tourism, Trentino boasts of thermal waters that have stood the test of time and is home to the largest and very popular spa towns in the Italian Alps, the Merano.

V E N E T O Among the notable spa resorts in Veneto is Abano Terme. In fact, the word ‘Terme’ refers to spa so it is not a surprise that the scenic town exudes warmth and relaxation to both local and foreign visitors alike. A lot of guests are content to lounge and rejuvenate spa sessions and enjoy the therapeutic qualities of a lazy afternoon. As a small town, it is not really for sightseeing, but a wonderful haven to chat, to wander, to stop for a drink and watch others pass by. For those who are tired of the humdrum of urban life, there is nothing more perfect than staying up there. Many hotels not just in Albano Terme but around Veneto offer a wide range of mud and spa treatments, complete with their own thermal pools. There are also those who provide luxurious Jacuzzi facilities and full body massage that are sure to soothe the guest’s aches away. So when selecting hotels in Veneto, it is wise to look up what type of spa and wellness treatments are available to get the most relaxing vacation.
