A family spa designed to cater to the rising trend in three-generational travel is set to open at the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz in Switzerland.
Open to children up to the age of 16 and designed by Claudio Carbone, the spa will offer bathing areas, hydro-massage showers and a miniature version of the Tamina gorge – the mystical local landmark that provides thermal water to the resort.
Carbone has included a rustic Alpine hut and used multimedia effects to create a space that is both fun and engaging for the younger spa visitors.
A range of treatments for children will include a Sweet Honey massage, which uses lavender oil, and Happy Feet, a relaxing foot bath and massage finished off with a pedicure, which can include tiny gemstones.
In conjunction with the new spa, the resort is opening four new two-bedroom suites in April in order to establish itself as a go-to destination for family getaways.
The 75sq m (807sq ft) suites will have views across the Heidiland region and will provide enough space for up to two adults and three children.
