The Farm named favorite spa for 2014
MANILA, Philippines - Tatler readers across Asia were asked last year to complete a survey of their favorites in a selection of lifestyle categories, including their favorite spa in the world. How the region’s elite spend their time and money is reflected in the results of the survey, combining a unique barometer of their preferences, passion and tastes.
The AsiaTatler article reads: “For many, Thailand and Bali are the spiritual homes of spa-based indulgence in Asia, if not the world, and both locations were well represented here, as were your nearby local city spa favorites. But the winner was something else entirely: Philippines’ wellness haven The Farm at San Benito was your top choicefor soothing away the stresses of city life. Since opening its doors in 2002, The Farm – which is located about 90 minutes’ drive from Manila – has been a mecca for those who want to purify their body and mind without compromising on creature comforts. Featuring a blissful combination of detoxifying treatments, wellness programs and raw food cuisine, the resort has spawned a raft of imitators while staying firmly ahead of the pack.”
Readers were in complete agreement, with an impressive 33 percent of the votes for The Farm at San Benito.
“Being nominated by the esteemed readers of Tatler magazine is an honor in itself. To be chosen by the majority as their favorite spa in the world fills us with profound joy and fills our heart with thanksgiving for the trust, support and belief in our steadfast commitment to principles of mindful living and healthy life-changing experiences. It is truly a wonderful gift as we celebrate our 12th anniversary this month of December,” said general manager Michael Di Lonardo.
