CARMEL, CA, November 14, 2012 (Press-News.org) November 11th marks the one-year anniversary of Refuge, Carmel's wildly popular day spa that has introduced a simple, effective, and affordable way to relax. In just one year more than 22,000 guests (60% of those from out of town) walked into Refuge to remedy weary minds and bodies.
The draw of Refuge is its wide variety of amenities, including the largest co-ed cedar sauna in America, a eucalyptus steam room, multiple Nordic cool and hot pools with cascading thermal waterfalls, 4 indoor relaxation rooms, and 4 outdoor relaxation areas with fire pits and breathtaking views of the Santa Lucia Preserve in Carmel, CA. Not only does it offer a state-of-the-art relaxation facility, but also an array of aromatherapy massage.
The relaxation facility stands out among spas with its own Refuge Thermal Cycle featuring 3 simple steps: heat up, cool down, and relax. Guests are encouraged to repeat this cycle 3-5 times for optimal relaxation. Unlike expensive spa treatments focusing on beauty, Refuge is designed to fulfill one goal, relaxation.
Refuge has received a number of accolades in achieving the complete relaxation of guests. Locally, the spa was named Best New Business 2012 by the Monterey County Weekly, Best new spa 2012 by both the Monterey County Weekly and the Carmel Pine Cone. On the web, positive feedback from guests has earned Refuge the award of Excellence from TripAdvisor, and it is currently rated the No. 1 business on tripadvisor.com among all Carmel attractions, and is rated No. 3 overall. And on Yelp it has won the "People Love Us on Yelp" award. And a diverse group of media outlets, such as the San Francisco Chronicle, Sunset magazine and San Diego Riviera magazine have discovered Refuge and written glowing reviews.
Refuge's simple design and focus on complete relaxation have made a tremendous impact on local businesses. Hotels have found it to be a proven stay-extender, increasing occupancy rates and employment in the Carmel area.
"With the arrival of Refuge in Monterey County, we gained another attraction that makes our county truly special!" said Tammy Blount, CEO of Monterey County Convention and Visitors Bureau. "In fact, Refuge is the first true relaxation spa of its kind in the U.S., and the feedback from visitors to Refuge has been extraordinary. We look forward to be partnering and promoting Refuge in years to come."
America's first co-ed relaxation spa offers the ultimate in relaxation through our own branded Refuge Thermal-cycle, featuring 3 simple steps: Heat up, cool down and relax. The Refuge facility features the largest co-ed sauna in the U.S, a eucalyptus steam bath, Nordic cool pools and hot pools with cascading thermal waterfalls; all in over 2 acres of serene, silent, indoor & outdoor relaxation areas with views of the Santa Lucia Preserve.
