LOOKING FOR LISTS FROM OTHER YEARS?

Hot List 2009

The Spa at Encore, Las Vegas, Nevada

Tel: 702-770-4772

From the Persian rugs and gold Buddha statues to the koi pondılike silk wall coverings and Swarovski crystal curtains, every detail at this sumptuous spa is designed to make you feel like a Vegas fat cat. A series of gold-and-cream antechambers lead to the relaxation area, where you can steam, soak, or just laze on heated marble chaises, before being escorted down a lantern-lit hallway to one of 51 treatment rooms. In contrast to the spa's Eastern palace design, the menu here is relatively straightforward—and that's a good thing. Facials use a combination of natural product lines such as Sundari, Eminence, and Naturopathica, while massages incorporate a mix of Swedish, deep tissue, and hot stone techniques. All treatments, from a lip wax to the 80-minute Good Luck Ritual, start and end with aromatherapy breathing: lavender oil to calm you; a blend of eucalyptus, spearmint, and peppermint to wake you up. Head to the salon for a mani-pedi in your own private room overlooking the property gardens, and splurge on the paraffin add-on for silky smooth hands and feet.
