LENOX, Mass. – Cranwell Resort, Spa and Golf Club, home to one of the Northeast’s largest spas, has put the finishing touches on a three-month spa renovation designed to create more elegant and tranquil spaces that mirror the resort’s elegant heart-of-the-Berkshires setting.

Enhancements to the spa include doubling the size of the ladies locker area; increasing the size of the relaxation room; installing four personal vanities, each with granite counters, individual beveled mirrors, hairdryers and hair care products; and enlarging and renovating the Spa Café. A subtle color palette of russet and brown highlights the new spaces, which feature cozy and intimate seating areas with rolled armchairs, chaise lounges, velvet high back club chairs and woven ottomans.

To mark the renovation’s completion, the resort is offering a free 22-minute treatment to anyone who brings two friends to the spa for treatments now through June 2009. The new 22-minute treatments include 22-Minute Massage, a Somme Institute Facial, an Aromatherapy Scalp Massage and a Gentleman’s Manicure. All guests who book any spa or beauty treatment, including nail and salon appointments, receive full use of the spa with heated indoor pool, whirlpools, saunas and steam rooms.

A number of new innovative treatments have also been launched in conjunction with the renovation including a Bamboo Sugar Scrub designed to exfoliate and moisturize the skin, a 22-Minute Massage focusing on troublesome spots and a Thai Massage featuring therapeutic stretching to restore balance of the mind, body and spirit. One of the spa’s signature treatments is the Grand Mosaic which is an hour and 50 minutes of pure heaven. The treatment includes exfoliation, a full body mask to moisturize, followed by time in dry flotation bed and topped off with a full body massage.
