The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club

From the moment it first opened its doors on New Year’s Eve 1930, The Surf Club has exuded oceanfront glamor in tranquil and picturesque Sunnyside. With gorgeous terrazzo flooring, rich velvet, marble and wood finishes throughout and views of the water from every angle, the impeccably updated property is complemented by a world-class spa complete with a Turkish Bath and tea room. Even though it’s dripping with history, everything contained within the spa space is modern, airy and effortlessly luxe, from its private alcoves overlooking the gardens to its menu of massages, herbology body treatments, Parisian facial remedies and globally inspired therapies. Feeling jet-lagged, or perhaps a tad hungover? Allow us to recommend the Meridian Detox ($460 for 120 minutes). Based on traditional Chinese medicine philosophies, this treatment begins with a grounding alkaline foot bath followed by a detoxifying body scrub. Special focus is then given to the body’s meridian points with an acupressure energy massage.
