Ways to Practice Self-Care at the Spa When You Cruise

Recharge. Relax. Unwind. With all the onboard activities and shore excursions you can experience on a Holland America Line cruise, you may forget to set aside time to pamper yourself from head to toe. The Greenhouse Spa & Salon® can help you do just that. In honor of International Self-Care Day on July 24, we want to highlight some of the best ways you can practice self-care at the spa during your cruise vacation.
Thermal Suite
Do you love feeling warm and toasty? If so, the Thermal Suite may be your first stop. Enjoy ocean views as you relax on heated loungers. Immerse yourself in the warm hydropool for a soothing experience. Step into a sauna for enhanced relaxation. Whether you visit the Thermal Suite once or throughout your cruise, you’ll relish the experience.

Massage Therapy
Need to work out some knots or sore muscles? Indulge in massage treatments to alleviate stress, ease tension and enhance your relaxation onboard. If you’re cruising with your significant other, consider surprising them with a couple’s massage. From aromatherapy to deep tissue massage, you’ll be saying “ahhh” at the spa in no time. If you’re looking for additional services to ease tense muscles, consider acupuncture or cupping to soothe sore spots.
Fabulous Facials
In addition to the marvelous massages at the spa, facials have also created a fan base among Holland America Line cruisers. From signature facials to anti-aging treatments, you can help rejuvenate your skin with soothing massage techniques and premium ingredients.

Hair & Nails
Interested in a new style? Is a manicure and/or pedicure calling your name? We’ve got you covered. Make your reservations early to get pampered from head to toe.
Nurture Your Wellness
In addition to the “ahhh”-mazing services above, you can nurture your wellness journey through personal training sessions, nutritional consultations and more. You can also break a sweat during group classes, from yoga to indoor cycling, at the fitness center.

We bought the spa access package. Do we need to schedule in ADVANCE to use the thermal suite (hydro pool, heated lounges and/or sauna & steam grotto)?
Hi Regina, as it is not a scheduled treatment, you should not need to book a time. However, we ask that you check with the spa on embarkation day to be sure. Enjoy!
