World-renowned GOLDEN DOOR® SPA to Debut First East Coast Location at Naples Grande Resort & Club in Naples, Florida

New York, NY (PRWeb) April 9, 2007 -- LXR Luxury Resorts & Hotels announces that a state-of-the-art Golden Door Spa will debut in March 2007 at the luxurious Naples Grande Resort & Club in Naples, Florida.

The Golden Door Spa at Naples Grande Resort & Club will be the first East Coast location for the renowned spa group, and underscore LXR's commitment to expanding its offering of spa programs with planned additions and enhancements at several of the collection's signature properties.

The renowned reputation and services of the Golden Door are the ideal complement to Naples Grande Resort's recent redesign by acclaimed designer Bob Barry of Barry Design Associates, which has transformed the entire resort with a fresh attitude and contemporary style. This new modern ambiance will blend seamlessly with traditional elements from the original Golden Door in Escondido, California, which draws inspiration from the ancient Honjin Inns of Japan, to offer a sanctuary where guests, club members and local Naples residents can enjoy the services, programs and concepts that have made the Golden Door one of the world's most successful spa movements.

Tranquil Atmosphere of This All-New Naples Florida Spa by Golden Door

Golden Door Spa at Naples Grande Resort & Club will be a 16,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor contemporary spa village encompassing four linked pavilions and featuring elements of traditional Japanese architecture and serene gardens to provide an awe-inspiring yet gentle environment for guests to unwind and experience true tranquility. The spa will offer 12 spacious treatment rooms including one spectacular "Golden Door Villa" with a private vanity, soaking tub, whirlpool, sundeck and patio for the highest level of personalized pampering. Other special services will include a hair and nail spa that appears to "float" on the water surrounding it and features a four-station Golden Door "buff bar," a pedicure banquette for four, and a master hairstyling station overlooking the spa's pool and water features. The outdoor amenities will consist of whirlpools, sauna and steam chambers, rain showers and the signature Golden Door meditation labyrinth.

The outdoor sundecks and meditation lounges of the Naples spa will include Zen-inspired chaise lounges and individual iPods programmed with personal music selections, as well as fresh fruit infusions and high-energy potassium broths to encourage relaxation and rejuvenation both inside and out. A final element will be a high-performance fitness center offering the very latest and most advanced cardiovascular and strength-training systems and equipment with personal wireless flat-screen entertainment centers, customized programs and body analysis at the Resort.
