Terme di Saturnia Spa & Golf Resort Unveils New Blackrose Suites

The private suites are a unique departure from the resort's standard offerings as they serve as an ultra-exclusive spa within a spa- featuring customized signature treatments and services, as announced by Maria Beatrice Zanchi, Director of Marketing & Spa. The Blackrose Suites, named for the rare flower known as a symbol of elegance and exclusivity, opened in fall 2009 and treatments in the luxury suites range in rates from € 200 to € 300, per treatment.

The Terme di Saturnia Blackrose Spa Suites, which measure up to 33 square meters, were designed by one of Italy's leading architecture firms, Studio Parisotto & Formenton, who specialize in luxury Italian boutiques including Salvatore Ferragamo, Valentino and Cruciani Cashmere Lotto Sport. The suites feature black oak paneling with small traces of blue hues and pockets of natural sunlight, which allow guests to enter into inner holistic dimension-making the spa experience ultra-physical. Guests may choose to enjoy Blackrose Spa services on an individual basis or the largest room features two treatment tables and a large Jacuzzi for select twin treatments.

In addition, Terme di Saturnia has expanded its spa menu with new Blackrose signature treatments, which incorporate the use of natural and precious elements such as gold. These treatments mark the evolution of the hot spring traditions such as the sprinkling of oils, massage therapies and dedicated beauty treatments. Each Blackrose treatment concludes in the Relaxation Room, which is an oasis of tranquility where, cradled by music and suffused with light, the body slowly awakens.

A true medical spa with a staff of 33 therapists and five medical doctors, Terme di Saturnia features therapies for beauty, stress management and thermal and hydrotherapy treatments based on the area's unique thermal waters which date back to the Etruscan period. The 3,000-year-old thermal pool has been flowing continuously into the natural crater nestled at the center of the resort, containing precious minerals and salts which were found to have healing effects on aches and pains of the ancient Romans.

The luxury resort, which is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World and the exclusive Virtuoso, offers daily and weekly rates that include use of the resort's thermal pools, Roman Bath with Sauna and Steam bath, and thermal water falls. The rates also include a guided morning hike, use of the gym, not including classes, and a reserved deck chair and sun umbrella in the pool's park. In addition, guests are also invited to take advantage of the resort's newly-opened championship golf course.
