Spa-tacular!

Needless to say, wedding-weary brides and grooms are prime candidates for luxe spa treatments so you’ll be glad to know that the Hilton Hotels and Resorts have introduced a fantastic new spa brand, eforea: spa at Hilton, that’s guaranteed to soothe your bodies and souls. Many of the Hilton’s current 123 spas around the world will be using this concept with more in development.

I recently attended the eforea Grand Opening at the Hilton Short Hills in New Jersey, and viewed their sleek, modern treatment rooms. Just stepping foot into the eforea spa was transforming and the beautifully designed Transition Lounge set the stage for the bliss that awaits.


The soft lighting, fragrance-infused rooms and gentle music soothed my senses and imbued an immediate sense of peace and calm. The eforea spa features thermal lounges, sauna and steam pods and a Vichy shower room as well as private treatment rooms with showers. Each room feels like your own cozy little haven of privacy and escape.

Plus, you can choose from several themed treatments such as The Essentials Journey that uses Kerstin Florian products and offers a Correcting Facial with microcurrent technology. The Escape Journey is a more holistic approach and includes a head-to-toe treatment with products from the LI’TYA organic line. And, for the guys, the Men’s Journey boasts a heated bamboo massage, exclusive to eforea, as well as cool products from VitaMan, Australian-made spa and grooming items for men. I promise, just like eforea’s butterfly motif, you will “emerge brighter” from your tightly wound, wedding-stressed cocoon!

Oh, and did I mention that at the grand opening, along with a fashion show, courtesy of eco magazine Boho, and a book signing by reality TV star and celebrity chef Bethenny Frankel, we were wowed with a concert by none other than superstar Seal? Yep, it was pretty amazing to hear this smooth-as-silk singer perform. He wowed the crowd with his velvety smooth voice, charming banter and incredible stage presence. From spa to Seal…truly a fantastic night!
