Escape and unwind on The Islands of Guernsey. It’s the perfect place for a luxury weekend filled with rest, rejuvenation and a spot of pampering.
There is nothing like escaping to an island for a break filled with scenic walks along the cliffs, spa treatments and a nourishing meal to end the day. For a small island, Guernsey boasts a brilliant selection of quality spas, ideal for a wellness weekend away in a unique location. The beauty of each one is that you are never more than a stroll away from the ocean and a great view.
Each spa offers something different, from hot stone massages and hydrating facials to reiki and reflexology treatments. Many also offer, or can point you towards, beach yoga and meditation sessions, beautiful walking/running routes and fitness classes. Whatever your goal for your wellness weekend away, Guernsey has lots to offer for those wanting to relax or re-energise whilst away from it all.
Here is a quick overview of each of the main hotel spa offerings on The Islands.
St Pierre Park Hotel & Golf Resort
St Pierre Park hotel is truly an oasis in the centre of the island. The newly refurbished and award-winning spa boasts a breathtaking new swimming pool, marble steam room, dual aspect volcanic stone sauna, experience showers, five treatment rooms, a relaxation room and stunning views overlooking the lake and grounds.
The hotel was awarded 'Best Spa in the Channel Islands' at the prestigious Good Spa Guide 2016 Awards in partnership with Aromatherapy Associates in 2016. Since then, it has grown to be a favourite of islanders looking to escape for an afternoon. The hotel offers many spa packages that include a healthy lunch or an afternoon tea, as well as overnight stays and longer spa breaks.

The OGH was originally the official residence of the island's Governor. It is now Guernsey's only 5 star establishment and is tucked away in the heart of St Peter Port.
