Looking for the ultimate escape just minutes from Eastbourne? The Relais Cooden Beach Hotel has unveiled a fresh and indulgent addition: a luxurious spa that brings the serene, soothing vibes of the Sussex coast indoors. Following a stunning revamp of the 1920s landmark, this boutique hotel now offers a beautifully appointed spa, the perfect destination for locals and visitors alike to unwind and rejuvenate.
A Spa Inspired by the Sea
The Relais Retreat Spa takes its cues from its oceanfront surroundings, incorporating natural ingredients and offering treatments tailored for deep relaxation and renewal. Partnering with Pelegrims, a Kent-based skincare brand renowned for using sustainable, wine by-product-infused ingredients, the spa provides a range of treatments with a natural yet potent edge.
Some of the must-try treatments include:
- Signature Seaweed Leaf Body Wrap – 90 mins, £130
Immerse yourself in the healing properties of the sea with this exclusive treatment. Begin with a full-body exfoliation, followed by a soothing seaweed body mask as you relax on a heated bed. Enjoy an express facial and scalp massage, leaving you exfoliated, deeply nourished, and glowing. - Lava Shells Massage – 60 mins, £100
For an entirely unique experience, the Lava Shells massage uses heated, eco-friendly shells for an intensely soothing session that will leave you feeling blissfully tranquil. - Deep Sea Soother Facial – 90 mins, £135
Designed to reduce stress while promoting skin repair, this facial uses mood-boosting essential oils combined with botanical actives to refresh your complexion and calm your senses. - Meno-Pause & Restore Spa Day – from £140
Tailored specifically for women experiencing perimenopause and menopause, this restorative experience features a calming massage, a hydrating facial with cooling cryo globes, and a delicious two-course light lunch, plus two hours of spa access with amenities included.
Spa Facilities Designed for Ultimate Relaxation
In addition to its enticing treatment offerings, the spa itself is a luxurious oasis. The facility includes a vitality pool, relaxation lounge, infrared sauna, aroma essence steam room, heated loungers, foot spas, and wellness showers. With three intimate treatment rooms, each guest is guaranteed a serene and private experience.
Beyond the Spa: Seaside Luxury and Dining at The Relais
The hotel’s design complements the coastal setting with nautical-inspired decor, breezy pale wood furniture, and an outdoor terrace offering sweeping views of the English Channel. Dining at The Rally Restaurant and Bar is a highlight, with a seasonal seafood menu and daily specials sourced from local Sussex fishermen.
Located just steps from Cooden Beach station, The Relais Cooden Beach is an easy escape from the bustle of London, just under two hours away. Treat yourself to a weekend of salty fresh air, serene spa sessions, and luxurious seaside living.
