THE GIFT
After all the hustle
and bustle of holiday
shopping, guests
at The Spa at
Mandarin Oriental,
Boston can reward
themselves with
The Gift (starting at
$195, 80 minutes), a
holiday spa treat-
ment designed to
relax and rejuvenate.
Incorporating the
spa’s signature
Quintessence prod-
ucts, which contain
frankincense and
ginger, the treat-
ment begins with a
body scrub, followed
by a full-body and
scalp massage.
Afterward, clients
will feel refreshed
and ready for more
holiday fun.—N.M.
This holiday season, couples can warm their spirits with the Hot
Toddy for Two ($500, 1 hour 45 minutes) at Drift Spa and Hammam
at Palms Place (Las Vegas), which features customized products in
the scent of their choice, although Spiced Cider is recommended.
After a full-body sugar scrub, the duo relaxes with champagne in
a bath that has been prepared with fizzing bath salts before being
wrapped in warm mud. Any remaining time is devoted to delivering
a scalp, neck, or shoulder massage, which is sure to relax even the
most stressed spa-goers this hectic holiday season.—H.M.
