Spa hotels have become more and more popular in Spain over the past decade or so, and today people wanting to be pampered with all sorts of spa treatments can find a good spa hotel in most Spanish provinces. Click here for a list of Spain's most popular spas (see list below for more detailed reviews of some of the best spas in Spain).

However, beware of hotels advertising themsel.ves as spa hotels on the strength of offering visitors a pool, a jacuzzi and a beauty parlour. If you are looking for a real spa hotel with wellness centres offering a complete set of spa treatments and packages, check out the hotel's facilities before you book to avoid possible disappointment.

Some spa hotels do not allow children to set foot in the spa facilities (including the swimming pool), so check that out too if you want to share the experience with your children. Most spa hotels in Spain offer kids clubs, so that parents can enjoy treatments while their children are being properly cared for and entertained, but some are designed for very small children i.e. under fives, meaning that older kids may get bored. Ask for details before you book.

Or click on any of the spa hotels listed on the left for a more detailed review of the spas we have visited in person.
