" Pilates class on board Crystal Serenity. This side of cruising is booming! Recognizing the want of a passenger to unplug and unwind is creating competitive pricing and amazing offerings. " Bridget Midgett, Customer Care Manager, World Travel Holdings to kick-off with Dr. Weil sailing on the Seabourn Encore in January 2017. It will be led by a Wellness Guide, a certified yoga and meditation practitioner who will offer complimentary classes and gatherings. Quinn also recommends Celebrity Cruises, which, she says, has "made the most significant upgrades to its spa and wellness offerings." Chris Caulfield, a CruiseOne franchise owner, points to the Celebrity's Take Care of YourSelfie program, which, he says, "reminds people that it's important to unplug and take a break from technology." The program encompasses everything from a yoga workout to spa treatments at the onboard CanyonRanch SpaClub. "Celebrity also has their AquaClass staterooms," says Caulfield, "that include exclusive access to Blu, the specialty restaurant that offers what Celebrity calls 'clean cuisine.'" Mara Hargarther, Dream Vacations franchise owner, points to other cruise lines with similar spa-specific accommodations including MSC, "which offers the Aurea category, [with unrestricted 36 october 2016 use of the spa's thermal area]; Carnival's Cloud 9 spa cabins and suites; Costa's spa cabins and suites with the dedicated Samsara restaurant; and Crystal's ETROdesigned amenities in staterooms." Princess Cruises also gets in on the action with Suite accommodations offering complimentary Lotus Spa Thermal Suite access on select ships. And Norwegian, too, offers amenities for the spa aficionado. The line, says Hargarther, "offers spa and thermal suite packages available for purchase as well as spa cabins and suites on board Breakaway-class ships with unlimited access to the Thermal Suite; and Viking Ocean Cruises offers the snow grotto spa on board all ships." Christopher Festerman, a travel professional with CruisesOnly, points out that many of these cabins on board the various cruise lines are "generally balcony or suite rooms that are spa-themed and near the spa allowing for convenient access. Many include specific spa-type enhancements, from special robes to graduated discounts in the spa for treatments purchased." Hargarther also signals out MSC's new Wellness Experience Powered by Technogym, a program announced this year that will roll out fleetwide in 2017. Using a pre-cruise questionnaire, followed by an onboard oneon-one consultation with a Master Trainer, trained by Technogym, each guest's cruise will be customized with shore excursions, gym classes and healthy food options that are specific to the individuals' goals and needs. And if you think what happens on the cruise, stays on the cruise, think again. Jo Ann Williams, a Cruises Inc. independent vacation specialist, says that "cruise lines are employing very well-educated and trained staff for the services they provide. Clients receive care and guidance that they can utilize long after their cruise ends." In fact, says Carey Hill, a Cruise Planners franchise owner, "CanyonRanch SpaClub at sea incorporates many of the offerings that made my stay at the [land-based] CanyonRanch Tucson property, which was a spiritual, physical and truly life-altering experience." She adds that health-focused cruisers can experience the luxurious spa services and wellness programs CanyonRanch has perfected while cruising with "Oceania, [offering CanyonRanch meals on the menu]; Cunard; and Regent Seven Seas." On Regent's Seven Seas Explorer, for example, the CanyonRanch spa facilities include eight fully equipped treatments rooms where cruisers can opt for one of Red Flower's signature treatments that have been designed exclusively for the ship and are inspired by the seven seas of the modern world. Examples include the Red Flower North Atlantic Journey that incorporates organic sea salts harvested from the Atlantic Ocean; and the Red Flower Naturally Nourishing: A Ritual of the Arctic Sea using ingredients sourced directly from the Arctic Sea. These unique offerings, says Hargarther, are important because "clients prefer to spend their money on experiences over things. The spa segment of the cruise industry is expected to grow 10 percent annually over the next five years." Caulfield concurs, adding that "I see this as a growing segment in my cruise business." Virtuoso's Wellness Push There's no doubt that the wellness trend will continue to flourish, and it's that interest from the traveling public that led Virtuoso to launch its Virtuoso Wellness community.
