. The Spa Directory
City Travel Guides > Books > Spas
by: Suzanne Duckett, Tabitha Stapely
February 03, 2003
What can I say? This book is absolutely brilliant! As someone who is interested in spas, but not obsessed by them, I found it informative and entertaining and it actually does more than just show pretty pictures. Suzanne Duckett catches the essence of each spa without over selling it, and gives you treatment details, tips on what to pack, a brief description of the area, the type of regular guests and even sums up the ambiance. Us readers are left to simply browse and enjoy planning our next trip - there are nearly 200 worldwide that she's reviewed. Great for a fun flick through, perfect if your looking for an intro to spa-ing, or a bible if you're a seasoned pro. Buy it, beg it, bag it! The most uplifting and inspiring travel and beauty book ... Read More:

It's almost impossible not to feel enthused yourself as she she shares a view of destinations, some perhaps familiar and others not, that differ from the average travel guide, allowing us to see an intimate picture of a small part of local culture. It's endearing how she enters the spirit of each local bathing ritual, eager for the experience and ready to learn from the local patrons. Her writing style really helps here as her detailed descriptions of each of the baths and customs are marvellous. The prospect of bathing in many of the places she describes is most inviting - ...
