A healthful resort is a type of vacation destination that focuses on providing guests with activities and amenities that promote physical and mental well-being. These resorts often feature spas, which are facilities that offer treatments such as massages, facials, and other body treatments. Spas can also provide saunas, steam rooms, and other relaxation areas. The term 'SPA' is derived from the Latin phrase 'salus per aquam, ' which translates to 'health through water.'
