Within a 15-minute drive of the Disney World crowds, Waldorf Astoria Spa Orlando is your expansive haven for some “me time.” (And, for couples, you can get some “us time,” too.)
Tucked within the Four-Star Waldorf Astoria Orlando, this spa spans nearly 24,000 square feet. But amid the expanse, there are plenty of nooks for true coziness. Perhaps its most notable feature is a Himalayan salt room — the resort is the first in the state to have an in-spa salt room.
You can balance the salt with the sweet as the spa loves to infuse locally grown fruits and organic touches in its facials, massages and more. In the heart of what may be a packed Orlando schedule, carving out some Waldorf Astoria Spa time is a move that will inevitably keep you going.
- The overall vibe is modern elegance, with tans meshing with brown tile swirls and wooden wall elements. To access the Orlando spa, you stroll down a marble-floored hall and enter through towering bronze-like doors with see-through windows.
- There are 22 treatment rooms, each with seemingly sound-proof walls for added privacy. You do feel worlds apart from fellow spa neighbors.
- The confines feel intimate compared to its local mega-spa counterparts. Nonetheless, all the amenities you’d want, like a steam room and indoor whirlpool, are available. For couples or mixed groups, there is a coed Tranquility Lounge with a handful of zero-gravity wave lounges for pre- or post-treatment Zen.
- You’ll perhaps hear about “tupelo honey” quite a bit onsite. It’s the spa’s signature ingredient, and it is woven into a number of lotions and immersive offerings.
- For an additional cost, you can access the pink-brick Himalayan salt room. To maximize the experience, pair it with a Himalayan Salt Stone Massage.
- Try one of the popular Hydrafacials, which use a proprietary machine that cleanses, hydrates and slathers on various serums. You can opt for boosters targeting your lips, eyes and neck, too.
- Among the unique massage offerings is a honey butter experience. The 50- or 80-minute service incorporates a luxe shea butter bar and, if there’s any leftover afterward, you get to take it home.
- The Couples Celebratory Spa Package is a three-hour, multifaceted journey. It includes an 80-minute couples massage, a 30-minute hot bath for two and 50-minute couples facial. Afterward, you get to unwind with a bottle of house champagne.
- Seasonal services often weave in local ingredients or enhancements. An example ahead of springtime recently, organic strawberries were incorporated into select body scrubs and body butter.
- Waldorf Astoria Spa Orlando curates several wellness and recovery treatments, including Normatec compression therapy that revives legs and a zero-gravity sleep lounger that reduces stress.
