Turkey’s best luxury wellness spa and twice in a row as chosen by World Luxury Awards, is Richmond Nua Wellness Spa… Located by the Sapanca Lake with a vast view of the lake, embedded within nature and minutes away from the peaceful town center, Richmond Nua Wellness Spa is indeed a luxury haven.
From a number of great packaged getaways to day programmes and detox programmes Richmond Nua offers just about anything and everything for everybody. As you will find below the details of its many facilities and various different therapies, Richmond Nua Wellness Spa is not a tiny spa in a big hotel, it is more like a hotel featured in a spa…
As such, do not be surprised to see people walking around hastily and swiftly in their white robes in the hotel lobby. In fact the first thing you will told as you make your check-in at the lobby is to let go and feel comfortable, releasing unwanted tension and stress. You are welcome to dress into your white puffy robes and start a luxurious journey at Richmond Nua…
Finally, the truth be told, it was ages ago when I visited Richmond Nua Wellness Spa. Nonetheless, it was a memorable experience and remained in my mind as one of the best spas ever. When I thus heard that it has been chosen the best luxury wellness spa of Turkey, I knew that I had to revisit those memories… As such, the review below is a recollection of those experiences, but they have been confirmed by friends who have recently visited Richmond Nua again.
