Every visitor has their own reason for choosing the timeless island of Bermuda for a getaway. Some come for the golf, some for the food, some for the romance and still others for the depth of history and culture. But what everyone who comes here has in common is the desire to enjoy the laidback and unhurried pace of life in one of the most idyllic places in the world. In my job as a specialist provider of Bermuda accommodation, I've experienced the hospitality of the most luxurious hotels and resorts on the island. Each has its own unique qualities, but if you're looking to treat yourself (or someone else) to the ultimate in pampering and wellness treatments, I can highly recommend these ones. Rosewood Tuckers Point The world-class Rosewood Tuckers Point offers a genuine escape from everyday life. Among the very best Bermuda accommodation, the all-encompassing indulgence extends to the onsite wellness centre as well. The inspirational Rosewood Spa wraps you up in luxury as you choose from a menu of lush beauty and body treatments, unique to the Bermudian culture. Set around a central reflection pool, there's a genuine serenity in the tranquil surrounds of the spa. You'll float off on a cloud of wellness with the unique restorative 'sense spa journeys', using a range of cedar and natural botanical ingredients. Open daily 10am-6pm. Elbow Beach Resort At the immersive and intimate spa at the famous Elbow Beach Resort, you really do get to leave your cares at the door and enter into a world of pure body bliss. The individual spa suites put you in a front row seat to the gentle lapping of the ocean just metres away. With an ambience designed to replicate the tranquillity of Asian culture and the Bermudian affinity with the ocean, the exotic treatments will relax, rejuvenate and revive in equal measures. Enter this soothing sanctuary and experience the intriguing signature spa suite indulgence of a Rum Swizzle Ritual, or a private couple's suite with a rain shower and tub for two. Open daily 9am-6pm, bookings essential. Grotto Bay Beach Resort The Natura Spa at the renowned Grotto Bay Beach Resort could be one of the most unusual spas you ever visit. Set inside the atmospheric Prosperos Cave, with views over a tranquil lake, the softly illuminated spa is almost otherworldly – and so are the treatments. Specialising in an extensive range of healing therapy massages, this incredible, award-winning subterranean spa is like nothing you've ever experienced. But with treatments as delicious as a Tangerine Salt Body Glow and as intriguing as a Four Handed Massage, your first visit might not be your last. True ayurvedic bliss awaits… Open daily 10am-8.30pm. Cambridge Beaches Resort & Spa The Ocean Spa not only lives up to its name, it also lives up to its claim as the "most relaxing spa in Bermuda". In the simply spectacular surroundings of the Cambridge Beaches Resort & Spa, with a lush garden setting and the ocean stretching out as far as your eyes can see, you can indulge in revitalising therapies and exotic skin treatments designed to help you reconnect with your body through your own senses.

It is possible to reach a whole new level of relaxation. Open daily 10am-8.30pm. Fairmont Southampton Aside from offering the finest Bermuda accommodation, the Fairmont Southampton has another ace up its sleeve with the Willow Stream Spa. Voted the best spa on the island, this tranquil, nurturing sanctuary provides an oasis of calm. You'll experience pampering beyond your wildest dreams through the indulgence of essential oils, local Bermudian botanicals and exotic marine and mineral salts. This smorgasbord of sensual therapy is set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean and the panorama of Bermuda's stunning natural beauty.
