Centara Hotels and Resorts, the Thailand-based hospitality group, has announced the launch of its first standalone Spa Cenvaree in collaboration with Acron Group in Goa, India.

The spa has opened along with three restaurants as part of the USD10m (EUR7.6m, £6.2m) Acron Place lifestyle complex at the beach resort of Candolim to the north of the state.

Spa Cenvaree Goa includes 13 treatment rooms and a couples' spa suite with private en-suite facilities such as a sunken spa pool.

Other features include a nail and hair salon, a Zen garden with tranquil relaxation lounge, and a range of water facilities comprising a Vichy rain shower, a steam bath and a hot air sauna.

Spa Cenvaree is Centara Hotels and Resorts' signature wellness brand and was launched in 2000 throughout its properties in Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam and the Maldives.

"Goa presents the perfect lifestyle destination to commence our operations in India," said Centara Hotels and Resorts chair Suthikiati Chirathivat.

"We are convinced that this is the right time and place to introduce authentic Thai spa and wellness experiences in India, in a stand-alone property."
