Most spas are as quiet as libraries. But you won’t be required to adopt hushed tones or tiptoe around Awana Spa in Resorts World Las Vegas. The 27,000-square-foot sanctuary seeks to make spa days more social and fun by combining communal experiences with innovative offerings.
Take the dark Foot Spa Lounge. Resembling a screening room with gray plush armchairs and TVs lining the wall, it’s just the place to gather with friends or family.
Another venue for relaxation with others is the expansive wet area dubbed the Fountain of Youth, a bright coed space. Oversized LED screens cover the Fountain of Youth’s curved wall and showcase nature scenes like snowy mountains or gushing waterfalls. To transport you to each video projection, the room’s temperature and lighting adjust to the location.
The 19-treatment-room spa prides itself on its menu of global treatments and lays claim to being the first in the U.S. to offer aufguss, a European tradition that features an interactive theatrical sauna performance.
