Named the World’s Best Hotel Spa Brand at both the 2018 and 2017 World Spa Awards, Anantara Spa retained this title in 2019 and once again received the award for World’s Best Hotel Spa Brand at the gala ceremony which took place in Dubai on Monday 21 October.
As the most prominent awards programme in the spa tourism industry, the prestigious World Spa Awards serve to celebrate and reward excellence in spa tourism. Nominated contenders are voted for by professionals working within the spa industry - senior executives, travel buyers, tour operators, agents and media - and by the public.
The first round of the selection process saw an impressive total of 30 nominations for Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas in 12 countries across Europe, Middle East, Asia, the Indian Ocean Africa and Brazil.
Properties in the Middle East led the way for Anantara Spa with three awards going to the group. The honour of Dubai's Best Wellness Retreat 2019 went to Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort; Anantara Spa at Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara was crowned Qatar's Best Hotel Spa 2019; while Anantara Spa at Anantara Al Jabal Al Akhdar Resort was announced as Oman's Best Resort Spa 2019.
With more than 2,000sqm of space inspired by Roman baths, and features including a hydrotherapy circuit and hammam, the Anantara Spa at Anantara Villa Padierna Palace Benahavis Marbella Resort is among the largest and most luxurious spa retreats in Europe, and was deservedly recognised as Spain's Best Wellness Retreat 2019.
Anantara saw strong results for two resorts in Africa, with the award for Zambia’s Best Resort Spa 2019 going to Anantara Spa at The Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara, and the title of Mozambique's Best Resort Spa 2019 going to Anantara Spa at Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort & Spa.
Representing Anantara Spa in South America, the award for Brazil's Best Resort Spa 2019 went to Anantara Spa at Tivoli Eco Resort Praia do Forte in Bahia.
