The World Luxury Spa Awards recognizes establishments for world-class service excellence. Awards are presented on a country, regional, continent and global basis. Winners are selected by public vote online, providing true recognition that reflects the hard work and dedication exhibited by staff.

The World Luxury Spa Awards started the 2020 award year with great excitement, planning two very special and unique events in Indonesia and Mauritius. They adapted to the ever-changing circumstances, and to make up for being unable to host an event, they decided to do their utmost to provide all participants with a special winner package, including individual personal video clips, a video message from management and a set of winner images announcing their win.

The 2020 Global Spa of the Year Award went to Stobo Castle Health Spa in Scotland, congratulations to Elliot Winyard and his team on receiving this prestigious awards. Winners are highly deserving of this prestigious award, epitomizing as they do the ethos of luxury and fine service. Many factors play a part in determining the global spa of the year winner, such as brand, location and overall guest satisfaction as per feedback via online reviews, among others. This year the focus was on those that showed true determination during a year never experienced in our industry before.

“We congratulate this year’s winners. It speak volumes to your dedication and commitment to our industry in this challenging year. True luxury is not easily attained. It takes highly efficient and dedicated staff, who are willing to go the extra mile and stop at nothing to ensure that every guest feels cared for and no challenge goes unresolved. This is the definition of luxury, it is what makes the winners shine.” says World Luxury Awards Marketing Director, Michael Hunter-Smith.
