The New Aurelio Spa: A Taste Of The Caribbean In The Austrian Alps

Relax with a combination of caviar, diamonds and the scent of jasmine

The exclusive Spa at Hotel Aurelio Lech recently re-opened with an array of treatments, alongside what are considered the some of the best spa facilities in Austria. Banish those winter blues with a vibrant, eclectic combination of Alpine herbs and Caribbean fruit, caviar and diamonds. The beautifully designed 1000 m2 wellness area of the five-star hotel creates a perfect ambience for calming body and soul, surrounded by a winter wonderland.

All-new Treatments
Aurelio Spa has a new, innovative treatment list for its guests this season. On offer are traditional facials, body massages and partner treatments; as well as unique treatments like caviar compressions and diamond facials.

The highly-trained team at Aurelio Spa use only the finest product lines from the acclaimed Ligne St. Barth and Valmont spa brands. The products of the Valmont series consist of extracts of alpine herbs and pure glacier water from the Walisian Alps (producing results that celebrities swear by). The Signature treatments are the Diamond Peel, a combination of fruit and micro-abrasion, with a diamond-topped tool leaving skin smooth and fresh (duration: 110 minutes; price: €230), and the Caviar compression using essential oils, in combination with caviar, to stimulate circulation and tightening of the skin (duration: 45 minutes; price: €65).

The applications of the St. Barth product line bring a breeze of the Caribbean to Lech. Active and nurturing agents of exotic plants, flowers and fruits allow guests to indulge in a world of Caribbean wellness. The signature treatment, the “St. Barth Freshness“, is a facial and décolletage treatment including a hand massage, using papaya and pineapple or cucumber mousse. A nurturing hand massage with the essence of bourbon vanilla, beautiful lilies or the Caribbean tiaré flower, complete the relaxing experience (duration: 90 minutes; price: €153).

Also brand-new this season is the “Hits for Teens” spa program, designed especially for the needs of younger guests, including applications of the St. Barth Homme line with nurturing substances for male skin. Skiers will particularly enjoy the “Ski massage”. This stress-relieving full body massage, including head and foot reflexology, using stimulating menthol and eucalyptus oils, expels the exertions of an exhausting day on the slopes (duration: 50 minutes; price: €85). For day spa guests, the use of the Aurelio Spa is €45 per person for three hours.

The Aurelio Spa, which opened in December 2008, offers unique, contemporary and sensual facilities. The stunning wellness area includes two indoor activity pools, thermal cubicles, cool-down experiences and relaxation areas, a large sauna area, providing classic sauna, organic-herbs sauna, a swimming pool (the largest in the area) offering sound and light therapy, an aroma steam bath, a jacuzzi, experiential showers and a fitness room.
