The family-owned Lefay Resort & Spa at the Riviera dei Limoni, on the West Coast of Lake in Italy, has opened its 32,000sq ft (2,970sq m) luxury spa to non-guests for the very first time.

The Leali family, which both owns and operates the property, has announced its intention to manage the resort's wellness facilities as a day spa to attract new guests.

Lefay will start offering day passes enabling access to all spa facilities - which include a total of 21 single and double treatment suites, five different types of sauna, a salt water lake for flotation therapies, a health and fitness suite and outdoor and indoor swimming pools.

Outside the spa, there are also three outdoor paths spread over the surrounding park with specially-designed jogging and running tracks.

The treatments at the spa - which combine traditional Chinese medicine and modern western practices - use the resort's own dermatological beauty range, Lefay Spa.

The product range is chemical and preservative free and made using the resort's own olive oil and other locally sourced ingredients.
