Orange County Business Journal, Nov 14-Nov 20, 2005

Succumb to the soothing sounds of falling water, the crisp scent of fresh rosemary and the masterful skills of an indulgent spa specialist in the Newport Beach Marriott hotel & Spa's new Pure Blu Spa. Adding to the Southern California lifestyle and coastal sophistication is the opening of Southern California's newest luxury spa and salon, premiering January 2006.

Rejuvenating treatments

Catering to the Southern California lifestyle, the Pure BIu spa at Newport Beach Marriott hotel & Spa is available for guest's enjoyment and personal well being. The 14,000-square foot spa with 16 treatment rooms features a wide variety of rejuvenating therapies including facials, massages, body scrubs and wraps. In addition to the standard treatment rooms, the spa also features three exclusive Spa Suites where guests can enjoy therapeutic treatments in a private setting without having to change rooms between services.

Luxurious relaxation areas

When guests arrive, they are shown to the luxurious relaxation areas, which include saunas, steam rooms, whirlpool facilities and the spa signature cooling foot bath, where visitors are encouraged to submerge their feet in a refreshing, cold plunge. Before or after treatments, guests can enjoy the beauty of the serene spa pool set in a courtyard adorned with private cabanas, swim a few laps, or just relax and soak up the California sun.

Fitness center and more

In addition to the full service amenities of the spa is a spacious new state-of-the-art fitness center, outfitted with the latest weight training and cardio equipment, including a Cardio Theater. A number of fitness classes will be offered throughout the day, including aqua aerobics in the spa pool, and personal trainers are available by appointment.

A full service salon is available with such services as hair styling, coloring, manicures and pedicures. A spa boutique features exclusive spa products for bath, body, face, as well as clothing and jewelry.
