Here, you’re not just a guest; you’re a guest on a personal wellness journey. Whether you’re seeking deep relaxation, skin rejuvenation, or holistic healing through Ayurveda, our spa is crafted to help you release stress, reconnect with yourself, and leave feeling lighter, brighter, and more balanced. From the moment you arrive on our 80-acre estate, you’ll feel the difference a luxury accommodation spa resort beholds.
Why Choose a Luxury Accommodation Spa Resort for Your Escape
A luxury accommodation spa resort is more than a hotel with a spa — it’s a complete wellness environment where every element supports relaxation and renewal. At Northumberland Heights, the setting itself is part of the therapy: tall trees, quiet trails, and the gentle presence of Lake Ontario create a natural backdrop that instantly lowers stress and invites mindfulness.
Staying on-site means you can fully immerse in your experience. There’s no rushing to and from appointments; instead, you can enjoy a morning yoga class, a long treatment, a nourishing meal, and an afternoon walk — all at your own pace. Our adults-only atmosphere ensures peace and privacy, making it ideal for couples, solo travellers, and small groups who want to unplug and recharge together.
When you choose a luxury accommodation spa resort like Northumberland Heights, you’re choosing:
- A seamless blend of high-end comfort and professional spa care
- Personalized attention from therapists trained in both Western and Ayurvedic traditions
- Easy access to nature, movement, and mindful activities that support your treatments
This holistic approach is what turns a simple spa visit into a meaningful wellness retreat.
Signature Spa Journeys for Deep Rejuvenation
At our luxury accommodation spa resort, we don’t just offer individual treatments — we design signature spa journeys that guide you through a complete experience of relaxation, detoxification, and renewal. These multi-step rituals are perfect for guests who want to truly reset and emerge feeling transformed.
The Rebalance Holistic Ritual
Our signature Rebalance Holistic Ritual is designed for anyone feeling mentally or physically drained. Over nearly three hours, this journey combines a luxurious body scrub, a nourishing body wrap, a revitalizing facial, and a wellness massage to bring your body and mind back into harmony.
The treatment begins with a gentle exfoliation that removes dull skin and stimulates circulation, followed by a hydrating wrap that deeply nourishes and firms the skin. A targeted facial then brightens and firms the complexion, while the final massage melts away tension and restores energy flow. By the end, guests often describe feeling “reset” — lighter, clearer, and more present.
Wellness Fusion Therapy
For those who want a deeply therapeutic yet soothing experience, Wellness Fusion Therapy blends elements of Swedish massage, aromatherapy, reflexology, and energy work into one seamless session. This treatment is especially helpful for releasing chronic tension, improving sleep, and calming an overactive mind.
Our therapists tailor the pressure, oils, and techniques to your needs, whether you’re recovering from travel, managing stress, or simply craving deep relaxation. The result is a multisensory journey that leaves you feeling grounded, flexible, and mentally refreshed.
Indulgent Facial Treatments for Radiant Skin
Beautiful skin begins with care, and at our luxury accommodation spa resort, facials are more than a surface treatment — they’re a ritual of self-care that nourishes, protects, and revitalizes. Our facial menu is designed to address common concerns like dullness, dehydration, sensitivity, and signs of aging, using high-quality products and expert techniques.
Caviar Indulgence Facial
For a truly luxurious anti-aging experience, the Caviar Indulgence facial pampers the skin with pure caviar extract and powerful phyto-complexes. This rich treatment helps improve elasticity, reduce fine lines, and restore a luminous, youthful glow. It’s ideal for special occasions or as a gift to yourself when you want to feel truly pampered.
Luminous C + Sea Facial
If your skin feels tired, dull, or sun-exposed, the Luminous C + Sea facial is a powerful choice. This treatment combines high-potency vitamin C with freeze-dried seaweed to brighten, firm, and deeply hydrate the skin. It’s excellent for restoring radiance after long winters or summer sun exposure.
Hydrating Plantomer & Soothing Propolis Facials
For sensitive or reactive skin, our Hydrating Plantomer and Soothing Propolis facials provide gentle yet effective care. These treatments calm redness, strengthen the skin’s barrier, and deliver intense hydration, leaving the complexion calm, soft, and comfortable.
Each facial includes a relaxing cleanse, gentle exfoliation, targeted serums, and a soothing mask, all customized to your skin type and concerns.
Massage Therapies to Melt Away Tension
Massage is at the heart of any luxury accommodation spa resort, and at Northumberland Heights, we offer a wide range of techniques to suit every need — from gentle relaxation to deep therapeutic work.
Aromatherapy Bliss Massage
Perfect for first-time spa guests or anyone seeking pure relaxation, the Aromatherapy Bliss massage uses pure essential oils to calm the nervous system and release everyday stress. The therapist selects oils based on your mood — lavender for sleep, citrus for energy, or grounding blends for anxiety — creating a deeply aromatic and soothing experience.
Hot Stone Massage
For a deeper level of relaxation, the Hot Stone Massage uses warm basalt stones to gently melt muscle tension and improve circulation. The heat penetrates tight areas while the therapist’s hands work to release knots and restore ease of movement. Many guests find this treatment especially helpful for back, neck, and shoulder tension.
Express Treatments for Quick Recharge
If time is limited, our express treatments offer powerful benefits in a shorter session. A 30-minute Tension Relief Mini Massage, 20-minute Shoulder Massage, or 20-minute Scalp Massage can quickly ease stress and restore focus, making them ideal for mid-week breaks or as a complement to a longer stay.
Ayurveda: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Wellness
One of the unique strengths of our luxury accommodation spa resort is our integration of authentic Ayurvedic therapies. Rooted in centuries-old Indian tradition, Ayurveda treats the whole person — body, mind, and energy — and is especially effective for chronic stress, poor sleep, and imbalances in the nervous system.
Shirodhara – The “Third Eye” Treatment
Shirodhara is often described as one of the most deeply relaxing experiences available. Warm, medicated oil is gently poured in a steady stream over the forehead (the “third eye” area), while the scalp and temples are massaged. This treatment calms the mind, reduces anxiety, and can significantly improve sleep quality. It’s especially beneficial for those dealing with insomnia, headaches, or mental fatigue.
Abhyanga & Padabhyanga (Ayurvedic Body & Foot Massage)
Abhyanga is a full-body Ayurvedic massage using warm, herb-infused oils tailored to your constitution (dosha). This treatment deeply nourishes the skin, improves circulation, and supports detoxification.
Padabhyanga, the Ayurvedic foot massage, focuses on vital energy points (marmas) in the feet. It’s wonderfully grounding and helps relieve fatigue, improve sleep, and support overall nervous system balance.
Kizhi, Udvarthana & Vasti Therapies
For more intensive care, therapies like Kizhi (herbal bolus massage), Udvarthana (dry herbal powder massage), and Vasti treatments (localized oil therapies for the back, neck, or knees) are available. These are excellent for managing joint discomfort, stiffness, and deeper muscular tension.
Body & Foot Treatments for Total Pampering
Our body and foot treatments are designed to leave the skin silky, smooth, and deeply nourished, while also supporting circulation and relaxation.
Aromatherapy Salt Glow & De-Aging Salt Mousse
Body scrubs like the Aromatherapy Salt Glow and De-Aging Salt Mousse gently exfoliate dead skin, stimulate lymphatic flow, and prepare the body for wraps and moisturizing treatments. These rituals leave the skin glowing and incredibly soft.
Moor Mud & Crème Fraîche Body Wraps
Wraps such as the Moor Mud Body Wrap and Crème Fraîche Wrap deeply hydrate, detoxify, and firm the skin. The Moor Mud treatment is especially helpful for sore muscles and joint discomfort, while the Crème Fraîche Wrap offers a rich, tropical experience that leaves the skin feeling nourished and fragrant.
Aroma Revitalizing Foot Facial & Moor Mud Foot Rejuvenation
Feet carry us through life, and they deserve special care. Our foot treatments combine pedicure elements with therapeutic massage and masks, using sea salts, moor mud, and aromatic oils to relieve tension, improve circulation, and leave feet feeling refreshed and pampered.
Designing Your Perfect Spa Day or Overnight Retreat
At Northumberland Heights, every guest’s ideal experience is different. Some come for a full spa day with high tea and a few treatments; others stay overnight or several days to fully immerse in the wellness environment.
