A Look at Spas at Sea

Updated: Apr 24

Embark on a rejuvenating journey as we dive into the realm of cruise ship spas – where wellness meets luxury at sea. Step into a world where the traditional notions of facials and massages have evolved into a holistic experience, promising pampering, relaxation, and vitality. Join me on a virtual tour of some of the most enchanting spa havens aboard cruise ships, where the ocean breeze and the soothing touch of skilled therapists create an unparalleled escape.



Let's set sail with Oceania Cruises' gem, the Vista, where the Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center takes center stage. This 1,200-passenger vessel introduces a holistic approach to wellness, inviting guests to indulge in Aquamar Vitality Cuisine and embark on Wellness Discovery Tours, exploring destinations like mineral baths outside Rome or traditional Myanmar teahouses.


Within the serene confines of the spa, Vista reveals its unique offerings – the Gharieni specialty beds, including the Crystal Quartz and Amphibia beds, designed for targeted temperature stimulation and muscle relaxation. The Spa Vitality area boasts large hot tubs, a thalassotherapy pool with massage jets, and heated lounge beds. Signature services, from aroma stone therapy to the "Ocean Spa Wave Massage," promise a journey of relaxation and rejuvenation.



Silversea Cruises' Silver Nova, the pioneer of the Nova-class, takes us on a luxurious expedition through the Otium Spa. Inspired by the lifestyle of ancient Rome's elite, this 3,638-square-foot sanctuary offers a sensorial experience amidst a tranquil palette, Roman-inspired art, and interconnected spa areas. The thermal area, Silversea's largest fleetwide, invites guests to unwind in a steam room, sauna, and pool with floor-to-ceiling windows.



For a touch of the exotic, Azamara's Sanctum Spa offers a diverse range of treatments, including acupuncture. The Sanctum Terrace beckons with a bubbling saltwater bath and breathtaking views. Meanwhile, Paul Gauguin Cruises immerses guests in the Polynesian and Hawaiian essence with the "Tahitian Wave Massage" and overwater massages at Motu Mahana.


Windstar Cruises elevates the spa experience with treatments like the "Mediterranean Rosemary and Thyme Massage" and "South Pacific Body Nourishing Wrap." Viking Saturn, inspired by Nordic wellness philosophy, introduces a Snow Grotto for contrasting relaxation, combining heat and cold to invigorate the senses.


Embarking on a polar expedition, Seabourn's Seabourn Venture and Pursuit integrate Dr. Andrew Weill's Mindful Living programming. From yoga to massages, these ships prioritize holistic well-being against the backdrop of Arctic or Antarctic wonders.


Scenic Eclipse II invites guests to the Senses Spa, featuring an ESPA menu and KLAFS custom salt-therapy lounge. Enjoy treatments, saunas, and temperature-controlled plunge pools. On Atlas Ocean Voyages' World Traveller, the SeaSpa by L'Occitane offers rejuvenation with ocean-view loungers and holistic spa treatments.



Virgin Voyages' Redemption Spa entices with a range of treatments and wellness facilities, promoting not just relaxation but also fitness. Celebrity Cruises' Celebrity Reflection and Celebrity Beyond set sail for the private Bahamian island, "Perfect Day at CocoCay," where the Coco Beach Club promises overwater cabanas and serene massages.


For family-friendly spa experiences, Disney Cruise Line's Chill Spa welcomes teens for specialized treatments, while Holland America Line's Greenhouse Spa & Salon caters to all ages with a comprehensive range of therapies. Swan Hellenic's Diana introduces a state-of-the-art gym, spa, and panoramic sauna for a holistic journey at sea.
