Passion Points: Spa/Wellness

Need to Know: Spring in Tuscany and Andalusia Text Size A A A
For those who like to rejuvenate in high style, In:Spa “the Jimmy Choo of detox retreats” by Indagare reporter Daisy Finer—is the natural choice. The four-year-old British company offers week-long health escapes in such chic settings as Ibiza and Jnane Tamsna in Marrakech (click here to read Daisy’s review of the latter.) This spring, you can be the first to experience In:Spa’s latest European properties: Villa Ferraia, a private estate in a medieval Tuscan hamlet just south of Siena and Trasierra, a 16th-century hotel in the Sierra Morena Mountains, near Seville. Both feature beautifully landscaped grounds, large pools and terraces for soaking in the views after a guided hike through the countryside. Naturally, chefs, nutritionists and yoga instructors will be on hand to ensure you are pampered properly. The Trasierra retreat runs from March 20-27 or April 16-23; the Villa Ferraia from May 1-8. All-inclusive rates, excluding airfare, for Indagare members begin at £1,705 (about $3,400) for Trasiera, and £2,515 (about $5,000) for Villa Ferraia; both are a 10 percent discount from standard rates. Call 212-988-2611 for details and reservations.
