Top Hotel Picks For An Overdue Wellness Retreat
Little Emperors, the luxury hotel members club, is delighted to unveil its hottest wellness retreats for 2020 with incredible dedicated benefits for members. From tailored tech focused fitness experiences at the Equinox Hotel Hudson Yards to physical and nutritional activities at the newly opened La Reserve Geneva, these wellness retreats are set to be hot favourites for when travel bans are lifted and life returns to normal.
Rebecca Masri, Founder of Little Emperors Luxury Members Club comments: “Wellness has already been an increasing underlying theme in the travel industry. Health awareness, mindfulness and wellbeing is at the forefront of people’s agenda, and I believe this trend influences future travel plans. A few years ago, ‘Wellness Travel’ would have meant nothing more than a hotel with a gym and sauna to most people. Today, the growing demand has led to the opening of many great hotels offering all different types of wellness, from weight loss, detox, fitness, recovery, rejuvenation, relaxation, yoga, retox, beauty, medical, stress relief.. even tantric!
At Little Emperors, a members only travel club offering preferred rates and unparalleled benefits at over 4,000 hotel partners around the world, the demand for wellness has noticeably increased and I imagine will continue to do so. People’s awareness of health and wellbeing has heightened since the COVID-19 pandemic and we expect our members will wish to bring an element of wellness into their precious holidays coming out of this situation”.
