 All the goodness and none of the calories at the Spa at The Hotel Hershey |
The Spa at The Hotel Hershey
Get scrubbed, rubbed, dipped and pampered in—what else?—chocolate at the Spa at The Hotel Hershey in Pennsylvania. Owned and operated by the famous candy company, the enormous spa offers a menu of sweet services. The signature Chocolate Bean Polish smoothes the skin with a mixture of cocoa-bean husks and walnut shells, while the Chocolate Fondue Wrap promotes relaxation with warm moor mud and cocoa essence. Treat your tootsies to the 60-minute Sweet Feet treatment, which features a chocolate sugar exfoliation, chocolate mask, paraffin dip and a moisturizing massage in chocolate. Top off this utterly delightful experience with a pretty coat of polish—we like the sassy Red Velvet Truffle. Don’t forget to pick up the spa’s exclusive Whipped Cocoa Bath, so you can indulge back home in your own bathtub (thehersheyhotel.com).
