Luxury spas and wellness centres around Amsterdam

Sauna van Egmond

Health and beauty spa Sauna van Egmond has been at the top of the list for wellness across the Netherlands for over 40 years. Housed in a large, stately building with oh-so-stylish art deco furnishings, the spa retreat offers indulgent pampering in a warm and friendly atmosphere. The extensive spa facilities include sauna cabins, a Roman pool, a Turkish steam bath and the country’s only Caldarium Maximus – a natural stone room heated to around 60 degrees. Tucked away in a quiet Haarlem neighbourhood, the spa offers luxury beauty treatments and massages, delicious and healthy meals, and films at the onsite cinema. Not ready to go home yet? Stay overnight at the cosy bed and breakfast and live like a queen – or king – for one more day.
