Boutique, adult-only property The House by Elegant Hotels in Barbados is proud to unveil a new spa concept in partnership with UK-based Elemental Herbology, the 100% natural skincare and body care brand. Based on traditional Chinese medicine, Elemental Herbology follows a Five Element theory, which matches individuals to an element – wood, fire, earth, metal and water – to give balance to body, mind and skin.

To achieve perfect equilibrium, guests at The Spa will be given a consultation on arrival to assess their needs and match them to an element. They will also be offered a jetlag revival massage to help them relax muscles and feel chilled-out to start their Bajan holiday.
The newly built Spa will feature two expertly designed private treatment rooms, including a couples space, offering massages, facials plus manicure and pedicure treatments. Located nearby, the new gym will host a range of classes including outdoor yoga and Pilates in a new yoga pavilion overlooking the calming Caribbean Sea.
Signature Treatments
A Sun Salutation treatment will take a guest through an invigorating exfoliation using a lush combination of papaya, macadamia, sugar and sea salt. Guests will then be enveloped in a cooling cucumber and aloe vera wrap before being given an acupressure massage to release tension and stimulate relaxation. After the wrap is removed, The Spa’s bespoke elemental oil will be applied to nourish and smooth the skin.
For male guests, The Spa will launch a range of gentlemen specific treatments including the Gentlemen’s Facial, which incorporates a deep cleanse and facial polish with a replenishing mask to help minimise environmental damage and the effects of shaving.
Elemental Herbology products use 100% natural ingredients to complement the body. Skilled therapists will assess guests’ skin type, temperament and flavour preferences to give balance, oil control, radiance and vitality and moisture replenishment.
The House by Elegant Hotels also underwent a transformation with the refurbishment of all communal spaces including the lobby, lounge, dining area and swimming pool, to revitalise its current ocean-inspired design. The intimate 34-room property exterior is reminiscent of a fabled castle with terraced brick walls and arched wooden doorways illuminated by the soft glow of tiki torches.
Rooms at The House start from £420 per night.
