National Geographic Names This NYC Spa A Top Global Wellness Retreat
Each year National Geographic releases Best of the World lists where their global community of editors, writers, photographers, and explorers uncover the latest, greatest, and most innovative places and experiences, from cultural spots and hotels to restaurants and wellness retreats. And this year for their annual Best of the World wellness list NYC made the cut!
Governors Island’s QC NY Spa claimed the number one spot on the list, and it’s easy to see why. Complete with themed saunas, waterfront pools, vichy showers, and more, QC NY is a serene oasis that lets you escape the city–though keeping the stunning city skyline views–without actually having to leave New York.
The ranking writes:
Dip into indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, and steam baths—some with postcard views of the New York City skyline—at this day spa carved out of a 1930s army barracks. A quick ferry ride from the southern tip of Manhattan lands you on car-free Governors Island where you can also hike and bike before your soak or massage.
The spa is the ultimate place to pamper yourself, whether that be with a massage or with one of the 20+ wellness experiences designed to relax the body and soul. The best part: you can enjoy it any time of year as their outdoor panoramic pools are open year-round!
And now there’s even more to enjoy as a 15,000-square-foot addition recently opened, complete with sensory saunas, waterfalls, a salt room, a lavender room, an ice room, and a relaxation room with waterbeds.
There’s even an Italian bistro offering poached salmon salad, Venchi chocolates, and all the mimosas you could imagine–talk about our dream escape!
The full list is on National Geographic’s website and you can book your trip to QC NY Spa online.
