DHS Spa Tour 2012
It was a giant crowd at Cabot's for this year's Spa Tour. I don't think you could have squeezed many more in. Nonetheless, things went in an orderly fashion and seemed to be better organized than last year. The buses even started running early. There may have been a pretty heavy load on the buses right at the start, and I know a couple of drivers made some wrong turns on their first time out. I heard some people say they had to wait 15 or 20 minutes after their first spa visit. But after that, things seemed to smooth out quickly. Buses came frequently and none were very crowded.
The evening isn't long enough for me to hit every spa, so I have to pick and choose. Sorry if I missed your favorite:
First stop for me was El Morocco Inn & Spa.
And then the sun set:
On to the Swiss Health Resort:
Thence to Nurturing Nest, which I'd never visited before.
Head on view of Mt. San Jacinto, right out your front door.
Then to visit Aqua Soleil Hotel & Mineral Water Spa where they have recently completed their long-awaited exterior refurbishment.
Next was Bella Monte Hot Springs Resort & Spa.
Followed by a stop at Living Water Spa (with the Kismet Lodge sign).
Finally coming to Dog Spa Resort.
My complete set of photos from the spa tour is here.
