(PRESS RELEASE) McLEAN, Va., 2024-Nov-15 — /Travel PR News/ — The 2025 Hilton Trends Report revealed that an increasing number of travelers seek indulgence and relaxation during their vacations. At Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia, located in the heart of Sardinia, Italy, guests are invited to enjoy spa treatments inspired by the region’s renowned “blue zone” living, offering an immersive wellness experience like no other.
Spa manager Giulia Piras, a Sardinia native, has spent years honing her craft across Europe, working in spas in the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, and Tuscany. Despite her international career, Piras found herself returning to the island that inspired her most: Sardinia. With its rich traditions and commitment to longevity, Sardinia is home to three recognized Blue Zones—Ogliastra, Barbagia di Ollolai, and Barbagia of Seulo—regions where the population enjoys some of the world’s longest lifespans, thanks to a combination of diet, lifestyle, and environmental factors.
Inspired by this healthy way of life, Piras has created three exclusive spa experiences for Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia, drawing upon local Sardinian ingredients such as myrtle essential oil, juniper, lavender, and honey. These treatments transcend traditional massages, incorporating activities beyond the spa to fully immerse guests in the island’s natural beauty.
One such experience, On the Salt Route, takes guests on a journey to the nearby Conti-Vecchi salt marshes, where they board a train for a tour of the protected area, known for its ancient salt-producing history and the presence of hundreds of pink flamingos. Afterward, guests return to the spa for an 80-minute exfoliation session using salt from the marshes combined with aromatic Sardinian plants.
Another experience, On the Honey Route, celebrates Sardinia’s deep-rooted honey production. Guests are guided through a tasting of the island’s varied honeys, learning about the local traditions behind the sweet product. The treatment includes a soothing body mask, a relaxing massage, and a cup of herbal tea infused with Sardinian honey and ginger.
Lastly, On the Wood Route connects guests to Sardinia’s ancient forests. This experience evokes the island’s natural surroundings with the sounds of nature, the scent of Mediterranean essential oils, and a massage using citrus wood cream, specially crafted for this service to honor Sardinia’s centuries-old trees.
These spa experiences at Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia reflect the island’s commitment to well-being and a connection to nature, offering guests not just relaxation, but a deeper understanding of Sardinia’s unique wellness traditions.
