The Spa - Richmond Hotel, Eastwood

Part Four of Cy's birthday festivities was a Red Wine scrub and massage at the Spa in Richmond Hotel, Eastwood. We've tried a lot of spa places already, and I must say that even if it's a little pricey, the Spa is still one of the best in Manila. The Villas at the Spa, High Street Bonifacio is just a real treat! But since the one in Eastwood is just a 3-minute walk from our place, it was good enough too :) Each the Spa building/branch has its own theme. The one in Eastwood is like a Grecian-inspired sanctuary.

I love the colors, the minimalist, and the relaxing ambiance at the Spa. The Red Wine scrub was awesome, although I kinda expected that there would be a hint of wine during the treatment--haha! I highly recommend for you guys to give a spa-day as a gift to your loved ones. Especially if both of you need some relaxation and a little bit of escape from work. I was kinda torn between giving Cy something more permanent like a pair of Nikes instead of something as fleeting and as expensive as a Spa treatment--but I figured, Cy already has a lot of sneakers and he really needed this special day to just be pampered. Cy is always the one who treats us to spa dates--and I really wanted to be the one to do this for him, this time around :)
