EDITOR’S NOTE

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Haute Grandeur, Best in Hotels has reached a milestone – the 2nd Awards season has just been wrapped up. It’s hard to believe as we flick through issue #1 and take a moment to reflect on the stunning member properties that we have shared in our pages.

I have seen luxury travel change over the last decade, some of the significant changes we’ve observed has shaped the way we holiday. For example the development of Private Island Resorts; the ultimate concept of ‘getting away from it all”, Eco Friendly Resorts; Boutique Hotels; where eclectic themes come together with more intimacy than a large hotel but with just the right amount of privacy.

One thing that is constant in the luxury travel sector is the drive to keep searching for new ways to explore ‘luxury’. For a purveyor of fine travel experiences, they hit the mark

6

when they find subtle unexpected gestures that become hallmarks of their brand. It’s in the detail. For the guest, it is all about appreciating these subtleties.

Marinique de Wet FOUNDER & PRESIDENT

So for this issue we introduce our top 5 pick of newly launched 2017 hotels (Page 18).

We visit Africa to explore a luxury game lodge (Page 24) that exceed all expectations for those wanting to get up close and personal with the big 5.

Enjoy the read on some of the best Haute Grandeur member hotels & spas, we hope these locations will inspire you to book your next trip & explore the wonderful places that we highly recommend to add to your bucketlist!

REVIEW: Mommy Wellness Spa www.mommywellness.co.za | www.facebook.com/mommywellnessdayspa Even though Mommy Wellness is a Day Spa, in the Cape Winelands region of South Africa that specializes in the Wellness of all Mothers, the Spa also offers an extensive range of treatments to men, teens as well as babies, toddlers and tweens. These treatments include specialized treatments, Mamma Mio treatments as well as various facials and massages.

Mommy Wellness also offers a DIY baby massage course as well as a Bambino Therapeutic massage that concentrates on your baby’s specific needs.

What makes this Day Spa unique, is the fact that the Spa can arrange for your precious little bundle to be taken care of in their kiddies’ area while you enjoy your massage.

During our visit at the Mommy Wellness branch in Somerset West, we were treated to a 60-minute Swedish full body massage in a treatment room large enough to comfortably accommodate two people.

The staff were friendly and inviting and the massage left us feeling relaxed, pampered and ready to do life again.

Reviewed by: Mrs Bonita van Loggerenberg, PR Manager, Haute Grandeur Global Spa Awards

Mommy Wellness, South Africa have multiple branches in the country including Durbanville, Johannesburg, Windhoek, M5 Park Maitland, Somerset West and Ballito.

MHONDORO GAME LODGE WELLNESS, DETOX/YOGA SAFARIS |W| www.mhondoro.com |E| res@mhondoro.com | South Africa | Africa

There is no better place to recharge, than in the tranquil serenity of the beautiful African bush Mhondoro is now offering an exclusive 6-Day/5Night Wellness, Detox and Yoga Safari at the luxury 5-star lodge in the big 5, Private Game Reserve of Welgevonden in Limpopo (South Africa) The package includes 5 nights’ luxury accommodation and a complete wellness/detox programme with healthy meals and three detox raw juice days, as well as personal coaching, yoga and meditation sessions, (out in the bush) daily safaris and bush walks, and detox spa treatments.

Guests who prefer a less strict diet, may opt for a Healthy Eating programme, based on a detox menu, but excluding the three Juice days. The Mhondoro Detox and Yoga Safaris are hosted by Monique Christiaans of Yoga Zenzo in the Netherlands.

It is her dream to give people tools to live more consciously. She fulfills this mission by presenting retreats in nature, where it is possible to escape one’s busy life and relax completely in a beautiful, natural environment. During these six days, you can recharge your batteries completely and at the same time become more aware of nutrition and the importance food, and what it does in your body.’

Mhondoro Lodge, and the Mhondoro Villa , lends itself perfectly to hosting exclusive Wellness Retreats like this; with extensive decks and heated salt water

swimming pools overlooking the wilderness, a yoga room and two small gymnasiums, as well as a Spa; with qualified therapists, and a spa bath outside on the deck, overlooking the waterhole.

We have put together a programme aimed at relaxation and intensive cleansing. In six days you will go on a transformative journey that will tell you more about yourself and your current lifestyle. So whether you want to lose some weight, get more balance in your life or just enjoy the breathtaking scenery and wildlife, this promises to be an unforgettable experience.’

The programme focuses on detoxing. The human body is built to dispose of waste itself, but with the amount of polluted substances that are produced nowadays, our bodies can use some help!

A supervised detox programme aided by specially formulated organic juices packed with vitamins and minerals; energizes the body and helps it to function optimally again.

And there is no better place to recharge, than in the tranquil serenity of the beautiful African bush; breathing in clean air, watching the bright African starlit sky, going to sleep with the roar of a lion, and waking up to the song of a bird…

AFRICA In fast-paced, clamorous downtown Cairo at the edge of the majestic river Nile is Willow Stream Spa at Fairmont Nile City, a sophisticated sanctuary where guests can step through spa doors and enter into a desert paradise.

Each Willow Stream Spa is designed to reflect the beauty and ambiance of its location. At Fairmont Nile City, decor is inspired by the surrounding natural environment - sandy colors and textures, reminiscent of the desert by day contrasted with cooler hues, which represent the desert at night.

The spa offers a place to rediscover your energy; experience relaxing lounges or a luxurious couples’ suite for a side-byside couples’ massage. Treatments draw on local culture and traditions, combining time-honored sea-based therapy with natural health and beauty secrets of ancient Egypt including a healing bath with milk, honey and Safaga salts or unwind with an ancient steam-bath ritual that will leave you glowing.

Fah Lanna Spa We are very excited to introduce our new signature package: “Fah Lanna Wisdom”. The new Fah Lanna Spa Signature package combines ancient Thai Medical Wisdom with Massage and Traditional Thai Lanna Culture.

The cultural influences in this new signature package make it a one of a kind. It includes elements of traditional Lanna culture such as a short “Wai Kru” ceremony to pay respect to the master of Thai Massage together with the spa

therapist. The customer will take flowers, candles and incense into the treatment room and together with the therapist pay respect before starting the treatment. The therapist will then check the guest’s body balance with a “Taleo” - a Lanna Symbol for protection, and perform a skin and spiritual detox using Betel leaves. It is believed this will not only detox the skin but also eliminate any negative aspects. The package concludes with some gentle body movements after around two hours of massage. The movements are enabling the therapist to check the guest’s body alignment and ability to move. This unique package not only benefits the body, but also the mind and the spirit.

The Healing Village Spa

The Healing Village Spa at Jimbaran Bay explores the two inextricably intertwined philosophies of Balinese culture: Sekala (the seen or physical world) and Niskala (the unseen or energetic world). Together, they illustrate the Balinese belief in the connection between the outer and inner worlds; the experiential and the meditative; the body and soul.

With the emphasis on the ow from Sekala to Niskala (the seen to the unseen), The Healing Village Spa at Jimbaran Bay

70

focuses on healing the physical body to facilitate exploration of the inner self.

|W| www.fourseasons.com/bali |E| reservations.bal@fourseasons.com

ASIA The spa highlights ancient rituals, locally grown ingredients and an authentic, educative approach. The spa also demonstrates the Balinese integration of the physical and spiritual worlds and the importance of an all-encompassing view.

Inspired by its beachside garden setting atop the Resort’s seven ‘villages’, the Healing Village Spa draws on Balinese traditions and nature’s bounty to nourish and heal the physical body, revealing a harmonious path to inner change. Grounding treatments, nature-inspired therapies, and ritualistic vibrancy pay homage to Bali’s colourful culture and evoke a sense of warmth and connectedness.

THALASSA TIMI AMA |W| www.pullman-timiama-sardegna.com |E| h3040@accor.com

White sand lapped by turquoise waters, waving palms under sunny skies...

Neither dream nor cliché, this is Pullman Timi Ama Sardegna.

Tucked away on Sardinia’s southeast tip amid the natural beauty of the marine protected area “Capo Carbonara”, this 5-star resort boasts a stunning setting.

From the bay, an Aragonese tower watches over 11 sprawling hectares of natural park. A haven for local wildlife among Mediterranean plants and flowers. Little wonder that hordes of pink flamingos flock to this sunny corner of paradise each year and settle in the lagoon opposite the hotel.

The hotel offers 275 rooms including 67 Executives, 11 Deluxes and 4 Suites with view over the bay or garden. The 3 restaurants deliver dishes that are delicious, combining the traditional Mediterranean cuisine with the latest Fusion trends from around the world. The 4 bars, with their variety of cocktails, make it easy to find the right place to meet and mingle. The state-of-the-art Thalassa sea & spa institute offers relaxing, regenerating seawater treatments but also beauty treatments and massages by Aquascience and Cinq Mondes.

Blissful convenience, Pullman-style.
