AQUA DOME to launch next month
An innovative new spa resort is set for launch in December in the Austrian alpine town of Lägenfeld, which is famed for its waters. SPA 3.000 offers a multi-sensory experience, by introducing multimedia into spa.
The 2,000sq m facility offers a number of themed areas highlighting different natural elements. One is focussed on the health-enhancing powers of Alpine herbs, another is centred around fire and water. There is also a private spa suite featuring a selection of exclusive treatments and thermal rooms.
Facilities include showers with weather effects, saunas with salt, yoghurt and honey infusions, a brine grotto and brine steambath and a glacier cave with ice rain. Multimedia installations accompany all the thermal experiences.
In all spa areas guests are introduced to the themes and given a sequence of thermal spa experiences. For example, in the herbal spa area, guests receive a multimedia introduction about the powers of Alpine herbs, followed by a herbal sauna, a vitality shower, and a herbal tea in the relaxation lounge.
There is also a contemporary interpretation of the Lägenfelder Badl tradition, with double tubs spetacularly situated on an outside terrace overlooking the Oetzal, filled with original thermal water from Lägenfeld.
Schletterer International did the spa planning and supplied the equipment for the project, CEO Heinz Schletterer, describes the spa as a multisensory seduction. “The desire to enrich an attractive and varied leisure experience with a health implication is a strong international trend,” he says.
