The B Resort & Spa in the Walt Disney Resort, by Florida’s Lake Buena Vista, launched earlier this month after an extensive renovation of the guestrooms, while the newly-added spa is scheduled to follow in late Q3.

Situated in a the 17-storey tower, the 394-key B Resort & Spa is within walking distance of the Downtown Disney area of Orlando theme park Walt Disney World. The property was acquired in December 2011 through a joint venture between investment companies Florida-based InSite Group and London-based Cube Capital. The property is managed by Crescent Hotels & Resorts, headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia.

The first full-service B Indulged by Aveda Spa remains on schedule for a late Q3 opening. The 3,000sq ft (279sq m) spa will feature four treatment rooms – one of which is for couples – a spa pool, a separate hair salon, nail boutique, relaxation lounge and locker rooms for both men and women in addition to a B Active fitness centre.

The spa, which will be run in-house, is supplied by Aveda skincare. Treatments available include massages, body care, nail services and hairdressing.

“B Indulged by Aveda, a collaboration between B Resort & Spa and Aveda, will provide customised treatments for ladies, gentlemen, teens and children,” spa director Beny Koe told Spa Opportunities.

“Featuring products with high quality botanical ingredients, our menu selections have been carefully designed, and our staff can recommend the precise treatment to fulfill the unique needs of each guest – whether it is to energise, calm or balance the mind, body and soul,” Koe added.

The hotel also includes 25,000sq ft (2,323sq m) of indoor and outdoor flexible function space.

Restaurant offerings include a full service American barbecue restaurant called American Q, a poolside bar and grill, plus a snack bar with an ice cream parlour called The Pick Up.
