The Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong, has launched an extensive spa membership programme, which you can enrol in for 9, 12 or 18 months at a time.
The point of such an agenda is simple, as the spa Director Lynsey Hughes explains: “While a spa treatment will always contribute to one’s inner glow, there’s no doubt that in order to achieve long-term results it’s always better to have a series of treatments…This enables them (guests) to focus on dealing with specific concerns, or simply to enjoy the extensive range of therapies we offer.”
The membership provides quite a comprehensive experience. It entitles guests to regular, discounted spa treatments and a 10% reduction on products from the spa boutique. On top of that it grants them VIP privileges and seasonal gifts, as well as invitations and priority ticket bookings to various exclusive events held at the spa throughout the year.
Under the membership scheme, treatments can only be taken Monday – Thursday. But on the plus side if you can’t make it, you can just give your slot to a friend. Such generosity is bound to make you incredibly popular – the spa was one of only 18 in the world to be awarded 5 stars in the Forbes Travel Guide 2009.
Prices:
9-month membership – HK$15,000. Entitles each member up to HK$18,000 worth of spa treatments during the membership period.
12-month membership – HK$30,000. Entitles each member up to HK$37,500 worth of spa treatments during the membership period.
18-month membership – HK$50,000. Entitles each member up to HK$65,000 worth of spa treatments during the membership period.
