Banyan Tree to open first European hotel in Corfu
POSTED 19 Mar 2019 . BY Jane Kitchen
The Angsana Spa will feature 16 treatment rooms and five outdoor spa pavilions, with treatments that place special emphasis on the use of natural ingredients
Banyan Tree will open its first property in Europe this summer, an Angsana-branded hotel on the Greek island of Corfu.

Angsana Corfu will include one of the largest spas in Corfu, with more than 50 treatments on the menu, as well as wellness programmes focussing on yoga, fitness, vitality and healthy living.

The Angsana Spa will feature 16 treatment rooms and five outdoor spa pavilions, with treatments that place special emphasis on the use of natural ingredients, such as native flowers and fruits. The spa features 17 of Gharieni's MLR wellness beds, as well as two Libra Edge Ks.

Aromatherapy, the therapeutic sense of touch, and a fusion of techniques from the East and West are all used in treatments designed to refresh and rejuvenate the body, mind and spirit.

The resort’s Angsana Gallery will offer a choice selection of signature spa amenities, Asian-style home furnishing, resort apparel and accessories as well as a selection of traditional handicrafts.

Angsana Corfu will also offer a wide variety of wellness facilities, including outdoor and indoor swimming pools, water sports, a state-of-the-art gym, private fitness lessons and an outdoor yoga pavilion.

The cliff-edge resort will feature 199 bedrooms with views of the Ionian Sea and surrounding mountainous landscape, and will be open year-round for guests looking for winter wellness breaks.

The Banyan Tree Group manages and/or has ownership interests in over 49 hotels and resorts, 63 spas, 75 retail galleries, and three golf courses, across 23 countries.
