Montage Spa

It’s the end of August, however it doesn’t mean the summer is over.  If you’re getting the kids ready for school or thinking about another getaway before that easy going summer feeling fades away, there are plenty of options still available.  One end-of-summer escape is at the nearly two year old Montage Beverly Hills.  Don’t let the 90210 zip code fool you as there are options available that offer a great value and the beauty of this Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean style resort is captivating.

If you’re in California, it may become your new ‘go-to’ spa resort to relax, recharge and reflect, especially with the spa’s wellness program and array of classes including Pilates, Yoga, Cardio and Strength.

Montage Beverly Hills is in the heart of Beverly Hills and close to famous Rodeo Drive and their luxury shops and outstanding dining options.   Not to be missed though are the dining options at Montage including The Conservatory Grill and Lobby Lounge (thinking about a little jazz and a glass of Donatiello’s Russian River Valley Pinot Noir while socializing (in person) with some friends).  And, speaking of wine, their list is quite extensive and they offer other Napa area favorites including chardonnay from the Darioush Winery and a cabernet from Shafer Winery.

Getting back to the spa.    Sometimes a one day getaway is all you need to get back on track to your path to wellness and their relaxing and nurturing ‘Day of Indulgence‘ may be the answer for you.  This option is valid from Monday through Thursday at $225 per person and includes:  Full-day access to Spa Montage facilities, a 60-minute massage or facial of your choice, Personalized fitness class in one of the private movement studios, Poolside lunch at The Conservatory Grill, and Access to the rooftop pool at Montage Beverly Hills (a great spot with amazing views of the Hollywood Hills).  (Valid through Dec. 30, 2010)

By the way, the 20,000 square-foot-spa is a two-story oasis focused on well-being and also has a co-ed Mineral Pool and state of the art fitness center.

Another option that goes beyond the summer is the Overnight Spa Escape and this package includes:  Accommodations for one-night at Montage Beverly Hills,  Two 60-minute spa treatments of choice at Spa Montage,  Daily continental breakfast for two, served in the privacy of your own room, or at one of the restaurants of Montage Beverly Hills,  (Rate of $775 per night and available through 12/30/10.)

Montage Beverly Hills, a mixed use residential/hotel, is just under two years old (opened in November 2008) and is the first hotel in Southern California to be awarded (April 2009)  Gold Level Certification under the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED (Leadership Energy and Environmental Design).
