The Carillon's spa is one of the most incredible facilities I've ever stepped foot in. Not only is it a fully equipped locker room, but it is supplied robes and sandals for you to enjoy your experience to the fullest. There is also a multifaceted relaxation circuit available to all staying at the hotel, regardless of whether you are receiving spa treatments or not. It's even equipped with a crystal steam room, an igloo, and a sauna, and that's just for starters. One of the most incredible parts of my staycation was enjoying these amenities to the fullest and feeling my body and soul being cleansed by the spirit of the spa. The service they offer while awaiting treatment is divine: I was greeted with a glass of champagne, a calm and peaceful smile, and an opportunity to dedicate an affirmation stone to take with me as a entered my service, which is more adequately described as an intense and deep meditation. The spa was unbelievable. The cuisine at the restaurant was some of the most exceptional dining I've ever been exposed to in my entire life. Not only were the multitude of gluten- free and vegetarian options astounding, but the quality of the fare and service was as well. For breakfast, there was a magnificent buffet that offered a multitude of pastries and typical breakfast items as well as a menu that listed unique offerings such as carrot cake waffles and green eggs and ham. Lunch could be enjoyed at the beach or in the restaurant, from a menu that was simply unbelievable. I am still dreaming about the watermelon feta salad and the shrimp tacos. These are just some of the genuinely incredible plates that will keep me coming back for some of my favorite meals. Staying at the Carillon was genuinely life-changing. It truly opened the door for me to free my mind and genuinely treasure sincere relaxation and tranquility. Until my next visit, I encourage you to take yours.
