Four Season expands spa

Four Season expands spa

JAKARTA (JP): Increased luxury hotel rivalry on the holiday
island of Bali has compelled the Four Seasons Resort Bali,
located above the Jimbaran bay, to spend $US1.3 million to expand
its spa.

The Four Seasons Resort Jimbaran has assigned Australian
architects Grounds Kent Architects to design the new 1,000
square-meter spa which will focus on indigenous traditions and
rituals and nature.

"We have seen a 43-percent rise in guest usage of the spa
since opening four years ago," said hotel general manager Neil
Jacobs.

The 147-villa Four Seasons Resort Jimbaran won awards last
October for being the 15th best hotel in the world, and fourth
best hotel in the world, by the United States' Travel & Leisure
magazine.

The Canada-based Four Seasons-Regent Hotels and Resorts, runs
37 hotels in 16 nations, will open in August the Four Seasons
Resort Bali at Sayan near the sacred Ayung river. (icn)
