Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer welcomes travellers to Monaco in style at Thermes Marins Monte-Carlo, one of Europe’s most iconic spas.  Ideal as a destination for complete relaxation, or for quick rejuvenation on short stopovers, guests can recuperate through a host of luxurious treatments boosting long term results and restoring complete harmony.  One of the first spas in Europe to introduce Cryotherapy, this innovative treatment is the ideal solution for GCC visitors to the French Rivera as it combats jet-lag immediately.

 

Since 1895 the Thermes Marins Monte-Carlo has strived for innovation, and the most recent introduction of complex Cryotherapy secures its position as an industry leader.  The treatment is known for fully restoring energy for an instant solution to combat jet lag after long flights.  Travellers from the Gulf can benefit from a range of treatments incorporating Cryotherapy including the Monte-Carlo Stopover and Performance Day packages. The freezing cold induced by Cryotherapy has been widely recognised in Nordic countries across Europe as one of the top anti-ageing treatments. The treatment includes a brief experience in two different rooms set at -60 and -110 degrees Celsius for three minutes.  Cryotherapy also helps improve sleep disorders, reduces stress, and improve the immune system, to ensure guests leave in a state of serenity, to enjoy the rest of their visits to Monte-Carlo to the fullest.

 

Functioning in harmony with the treatments, guests can also enjoy a healthy breakfast or lunch following their spa experience at L’Hirondelle restaurant. At the helm of culinary operations is Chef Jacky Oberti, whose passion for wellness ensures low calorie dishes for health conscious diners, with many offerings no more than 500 calories. Dishes include Middle Eastern favourites such as Tabbouleh with sweet herbs and Mediterranean prawns, and range to Goat cheese in filo pastry, and freshly grilled Red Mullet. 

 

Facing the Mediterranean Sea and directly connected to Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo and to Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo, the iconic spa features a rooftop Jacuzzi overlooking the Marina with panoramic views of Monaco.  Suspended between sky and sea, Thermes Marins Monte-Carlo is a true heaven in the heart of the Principality, and is renowned in the region for its innovative anti-ageing, slimming and relaxation treatments.  Made from pink marble and covering more than 7,000 square metres, the luxury facility includes a spa, beauty salon, and hair salon. The dedicated Wellness Area includes a heated seawater pool, panoramic cardio training room overlooking the sea, as well as a range of aquagym and fitness classes. Combining the most cutting-edge equipment and an experienced team of professionals, all packages can be tailored according to personal requirements and preferences for unique experiences across all the senses.  According to French poet Baudelaire, “perfumes, colours and sounds correspond to one another” and Thermes Marins offers perfect harmony and purity for body and mind.  The signature scent throughout the facilities transport guests peacefully through their spa journey with notes of bergamot and sunny orange blossom, balsamic notes of cypress, pine resin freshness, and sensuous jasmine.
