With a peaceful location in the Blue Ridge Mountains, The Omni Grove Park Inn has become a renowned health and wellness destination for travelers looking for rest and relaxation with its popular spa offerings. This year, The Spa enhanced its wellness offerings with a new partnership with famed luxury skincare line BABOR.

Since 1965, BABOR has pioneered modern skincare with its innovative products, effective treatment methods and unique wellness experiences. The new partnership provides the brand’s luxurious treatments and high-performing products at the historic Asheville, N.C. retreat.

New BABOR treatments available at The Spa include:

  • The 110-minute Ultimate Facial with SeaCreation ($500) utilizes intelligent, thermo-active cell protection from thermophilous micro-organisms found deep in sea volcanoes. The facial, offered at only six spas throughout North America, protects skin by freeing cells from stress and free radicals.
  • The 80-minute ReVersive Facial ($270) features a high-performance formula with four active ingredients that interact to restore youthful radiance and luminosity.
  • The 80-minute Gentlemen’s Facial ($195) combines relaxing massage to ease tension away with BABOR’s powerful TAUREC complex, including energizing taurine, calming hops and regenerating Siberian ginseng.

“We are thrilled to be working with The Omni Grove Park Inn,” said Benjamin Simpson, CEO, BABOR North America. “This exciting partnership allows us the opportunity to share BABOR’s high-performing products and effective treatment protocols with The Omni Grove Park Inn’s discerning clientele.”

Opened in 2001, the $50 million Spa at The Omni Grove Park Inn is a 43,000-square-foot subterranean oasis that brings beauty of the outdoors inside with mineral water, natural light and rock formations including cavernous rock walls, arches and tunnels. Unique features include two therapeutic waterfall pools and a lap pool blanketed with 6,500 fiber-optic stars and underwater music.
