For the zenith in relaxation and stress relief, there is nothing quite like a day at the spa. When you’re in Fort Lauderdale for the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, a spa day is exactly what you might need on an off-show day to de-stress and just be.

We have highlighted five of Fort Lauderdale’s most sumptuous spas providing sustenance for your soul as well as for your body:

The Ritz-Carlton Spa

This upscale spa has taken inspiration from its oceanic surroundings, pulling from nature to offer luxurious spa treatments. Specialties include using the power of citrus to rebalance, detoxify and cleanse. This full-service spa includes a hair and nail salon and boutique where you can purchase elite items to continue the experience at home. Some of the most popular services here include:
