The luxurious Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in France is
set to open a spa in collaboration with Dior.
Overlooking the southern tip of Cap d’Antibes,
Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc is a legend of the French Riviera.
Set on a
promontory of white rocks with an unrestricted view of the Lérins
Islands, its elegant Napoleonic residence, majestic alleys and
iconic swimming pool set into the cliffside, have been welcoming
guests for over 150 years.
The property is set in nine hectares of grounds,
where Aleppo pines, agapanthus, lavender, fragrant roses and
jasmine flourish. It has long been a refuge for stars and key
figures worldwide.
The Dior Spa Eden – Roc is scheduled to welcome
its first official guests on 14 April.
A boutique will house the Collection Privée Christian Dior
perfumes, including the emblematic Eden-Roc fragrance,
as well as the most precious skincare lines, the new Dior Solar
range and the House makeup.
The understated luxury of the décor
extends to the spa’s three individual treatment rooms and its
double treatment room, set on a private patio featuring
Mediterranean plants.
In an onyx affusion shower room, House well-being
experts provide hydrotherapy treatments using different jets. The
Spa space also houses an ice fountain, to stimulate and boost
blood circulation after a session in the sauna or the hammam,
which are set to the left and right of this refreshing cascade.
A dedicated Iyashi Dôme treatment room offers
infra-therapy to meet detoxing and slimming needs by diffusing a gentle heat through the entire body using
far-infrared light waves. It is said to enable the body to detox,
regenerate more quickly and provides an efficient slimming
effect.
Dior has also made these rituals available in the
heart of nature. In the grounds, facing the hundred-year old rose
garden dedicated to Queen Elizabeth II, a gazebo has been
transformed into a double treatment room, sheltered from the eyes
of passers-by. Further on, a historical cabana, which has been
redecorated striped fabric and toile de Jouy in shades of sage
green and white, has been transformed into a treatment cocoon
for one.
On the threshold of this exclusive islet protected by the
pines, a terrace with rattan furniture instantly encourages
visitors to relax by taking the time to admire the sea view, and
to let themselves be lulled by the murmuring waves.
Drawing on its holistic vision of beauty and
well-being, Dior designed the Dioriginels Rituals – four new
customizable signature treatments for its spa that are inspired by the four elements: the rocks, the
sea, the garden and the sun.
A complete “reset” treatment ideal
for starting your stay, the Escale à Eden-Roc Ritual aims to
rebalance and harmonise energy flow during a massage that uses
semi-precious stones. Chosen according to the needs of each
person, they are used either hot or cold during this 2hr
treatment.
The Roc Affusion Ritual reinterprets the full power of
water through a 90-minute hydrotherapy treatment, with the help of
a tailor-made sequence of water jets, beneficial for the muscles
and drainage.
The Enfleurage Corporel Ritual sees a shea butter bar
infused with rose petals, jasmine or mallow applied to the
entire body for a relaxing massage with exfoliating properties
that are more or less intense depending on the chosen flower. After this 2hr treatment, the
skin should be perfectly soft and satiny, enveloped in a subtle floral
fragrance.
Lastly, succumbing readily to the Côte d’Azur sun,
Dior has developed the exclusive Riviera Solar Glow treatment,
using its new Dior Solar range. Lasting 90 minutes, it is available
either before sun exposure in order to benefit from its protective
benefits, or afterwards, to repair the skin intensely after sun
exposure.
To celebrate the opening of the Dior Spa Eden-Roc, Dior
has partnered with Hydrafacial for a facial treatment that combines Dior
skincare expertise with Hydrafacial technology.
The Dior Powered by Hydrafacial protocol lasts up to
90 minutes and begins with a thorough cleansing and
exfoliation of the face using Hydrafacial’s patented vortex
technology. It is then completed and boosted with the Dior Floral
Peeling Lotion diffused through Hydrafacial’s magic wand.
Dior has also created six wellness
treatments, or bouquets as they have been called in a nod to the Dior Gardens,
including Relaxation, Immunity, Detox,
Slimming, Reverse Aging and Hormonal Balance.
Designed over several days, each bouquet programme
combines manual treatments in both the spa experience space and
the treatment rooms, as well as sessions using high-tech machines
such as the Dior Skin Light LED Mask and the exclusive Dior
Micro-Abrasion tool, as well as Waves 21 and Endospheres Therapy
technologies.
Sports sessions and consultations with
nutrition and well-being experts are also available.
