“Sparties” – Party at the Spa!
By Jessica, August 14, 2011
Spas are no longer just for solitary pampering, many Irish spas are now offering party packages for a fun and luxurious way to celebrate any special occasion. Spa parties, or ‘Sparties’ as they are becoming increasingly known, are an ideal way to mark a birthday, hen party, office party, or just a girly get together. These spas have a range of party ideas and packages – often reserving the entire spa and its facilities for you and your group alone and providing you with champagne and nibbles or juices and snacks to enjoy alongside your treatments.

A range of spa and beauty treatments are available in their deluxe treatment rooms and you have the optional extras of afternoon tea or a champagne lunch in your fluffy robes and slippers.
