Commentary by Bobbi
Markowitz:
From its luxurious
landscaped setting to its warmly hued elegant
decor, the Doral Spa at the Doral Golf Resort
and Spa envelops guests with a sense of immediate
well being. The immaculate, fully equipped
spa and fitness center extends a high caliber
of preventative and rehabilitative treatments
for both men and women. Classes in yoga, stretching,
abdominal and back care, relaxation Tai Chi
and Q Gong help restore and revitalize stress
burdened guests. The average stay of spa guests
is 4 days in length. Interesting to note also
is that 13% of Spa business is made up of
local guests on day programs. A wonderful
"Spa Retreat Day" includes three treatments
and a gourmet lunch and that welcomes both
men and women from all walks of life. An interesting
statistic at Doral states that 35- 40% of
the clientele is male. The numbers are driven
by the five golf courses and incentive business.
In order of preference, gentlemen prefer massage,
facials, manicures and pedicures. Take a break
from your hectic lifestyle and visit the Doral
Spa soon.
