Set on 70 oceanfront acres atop Bald Head Cliff on the southern coast of Maine, US, Cliff House Resort is undergoing a landmark transformation, and adding in a new 9,000sq ft (836sq m) spa concept, set to open this July.

Created by Blu Spas, the seven-treatment-room spa will have an emphasis on the “wild and free” elements of coastal Maine, channeling the transformative interplay of water, stone, sky and sand.

The spa will feature a circuit of saunas, steam and aroma showers; a signature water suite consists of side-by-side soaking tubs, lounge seating with sound therapy, a fireplace and private connection with a couple’s suite, which features two treatment tables, a beverage console, lounge nook with fireplace and a drench experience shower for two.

The spa will also include a Sun Lounge – a pre- and post-treatment lounge where guests can interact, reflect and unwind. The lounge features diverse seating zones and is expansive enough to offer guests a connection between indoors and outdoors with natural light, terrace seating and fire elements.

The resort will also feature Spa Go, a service that brings the spa to the guests for services such as body work, foot massage and head/neck/shoulders at the pool loungers.

A fitness club and studio will include the latest in cardio technology, strength machines and workout accessories, with a stretch area studio for yoga and private training.

The hotel's renovation includes work by Atlanta, US-based Cooper Carry Architects, with interior design from Vermont, US-based TruexCullins. Cliff House is managed by Destination Hotels.
