I recently visited the spa at Pinehurst and must say I received the treatment of champions.

[soft music] No question, Pinehurst is the home of American golf.

Its classic greens have hosted prestigious tournaments like the US Open, the Women's Open, the Ryder Cup, and more, but beyond the fairways, there's a retreat that rivals the excellence of its legendary courses, The Spa at Pinehurst.

One of the most desirable features of the Spa at Pinehurst is wonderfully spacious accommodations.

With over 31,000 square feet of space, it's the second largest indoor spa retreat in North Carolina.

In the main quiet area, you'll find a heated, three lane lap pool, cascade waterfall, and comfortable seating.

The shower room has a hot sauna, showers, and ample changing room.

There's another whirlpool in this women's only lounge just right before or after your treatment.

You can see why this spa is perfect for small gatherings, couples, or your own personal day of relaxation.

- What makes us unique is they can come in and relax all day long.

We actually do facial treatments by the pool as well, and we have a bar.

They can come, so if they don't have a facial or massage, they can have it by the pool.

Our products are southern base, so we use the magnolia.

We use lavender.

So I'll be doing the seasonal facial, which is our strawberry rhubarb facial, so I'll start by deep cleaning the skin, do a good exfoliation with lactic acid, which is in the strawberry rhubarb.

Then I'll put a nice hydrating mask, do Hungarian massage, which stimulates the collagen in the face and lifting effects without using like a Gua Sha.

We do hands, shoulders, neck, facial, and scalp massage.

Facials are good for balancing the mind and body.

I love being able to help other people relax, and to help them with their skin, their routines at home.

- [Deborah] Of course, the products used in your facial are available in the retail area, so you can continue a little self-care at home.

The Spa at Pinehurst is full service, so they offer a range of facial treatments as well as nail services, nourishing body treatments, and therapeutic massage customized just for you.

- Well, we have quite a long list of clients that come.

We have athletes such as golfers, weightlifters.

Here I believe you get a good blend of golf culture and wellness.

You have your favorite athletes golfing on the course that you're currently playing in.

Why not come here and have the same service that they receive here?

- Another wonderful part of the Spa at Pinehurst experience is being able to extend the relaxation with an overnight stay at the Carolina Hotel.

It's just a few steps away.

- The Carolina, it's over a hundred years old, built in 1901.

It's kind of our flagship property.

It's the largest of our four hotels across our campus.

It has 258 rooms across the campus, and it's kinda one of those queen of the south moments for us.

It really is a special place.

Every place needs a refresh every now and then, and The Carolina was no different.

So for the last five years, we've been curating an experience to not only honor the tradition, the history of the hotel, but to also bring it to a modernization that every traveler expects these days, whether it's technology in the room, mechanically in the room, but obviously with the decor and furnishings.

We really tried to step those up quite a bit, and meet today's traveler's needs, so we're excited to to showcase that.

- [Deborah] For the comfort, warm hospitality, and excellence in both accommodation and service, you're sure to have a relaxing experience at the Spa at Pinehurst.

The Spa at Pinehurst is at 180 Barrett Road East in Pinehurst, and they're open from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM seven days a week.
