One&Only has unveiled its first European resort in Montenegro, nestled among a mountain landscape with panoramic ocean views.
One&Only Portonovi is the brand’s first location offering a Chenot Espace facility, following an exclusive global partnership with the leading wellness brand.
Spread across 4,000sq m with 28 treatment rooms, the facility is geared to offer a transformative journey of resetting the body based on the renowned Chenot Method which focuses on Chinese healing (energy flow), detoxing and nutrition.
The Chenot Method was developed more than 50 years ago by wellness icon Henri Chenot who sadly passed away in December.
Guests are offered tailored programmes to positively improve performance at cellular and emotional levels, through tailored nutritional menus, fitness schedules, spa treatments and stress-relieving activities.
Diagnostics and treatments fall under six departments; Medical, Human Performance, Medical Aesthetic, Aesthetic, Hydro-therapy and Sport & Fitness. And the spa offers an array of approaches, ranging from tailored menus, fitness schedules and colonic irrigation to acupuncture, ozone therapy and IV nutrition.
“We pride ourselves in delivering extraordinary guest experiences and now our guests have access to an exclusive, immersive and distinct experience that will nurture optimum personal results and extend far beyond the spa,” says Philippe Zuber, CEO of Kerzner International, the parent company of One&Only.
Turkey-based international spa design and build company Promet was selected as spa and pool contractor by One&Only and has helped bring the destination to life.
Thermal facilities include an oriental hammam, hydrotherapy and cryotherapy facilities, a sauna, steamroom and an indoor pool, alongside relaxation areas.
