Chocolate and the Mud

2009-04-15T02:37:00.000-07:00

Diamond and Chocolate are testing fangotherapy... or mud application.... This technique of care using baths and applications of mud raises to the antiquity and is recognized for its healing virtues, both for the well-being and for a medical custom. Some types of fango have also anti-inflammatory effect and help against soft-tissue ailments. The clay benefits on the skin through drawing out the impurities and supporting the natural exfoliation, after which the skin is left smooth and gentle.We went to the Spa Les Thermes Marins des Cascades in the Hotel La Résidence des Cascades in Egypt. We must say that is it really crazy as our skin became smooth.... like silk... hmmm And you know how Chocolate like that!! She loves to be pampered... Chocolate insisted to show you her new passion.. Let's discover it on the pics.

Viva Italia: Apulia here we come!!!!!!

Torre Coccaro is a Masseria built not far from the sea whose origins date from the XVI century. Surrounded by antique olive trees, almond trees and carobs, this tower, once a stronghold against the Turks, has now become a five star resort where Diamond and Chocolate have chosen to spend some time... to medidate in this peaceful place. What we really like? We like the amazing food, the beautiful Orange Garden Suite with its own pool... hey hey you know how chocolate like to be tanned!!!

And what Diamond and Chocolate really like also is.... A beautiful SPA!!!!!!
Entirely carved in stone, Torre Coccaro spa epitomises the importance of nature by using wood and rice paper, and overlooking plants and secular olive trees. It is fitted with a big technogym, heated swimming pool, whirlpool and Turkish baths using eucalypt oil. THE SOINS - all the treatments performed here use herbs and organic fruits picked up in AVEDA lands. Musk, yucca, true aloe, camomile, lime, exotic fruits, officinal herbs and personalised essential oils are used for plant therapies aimed at suiting your needs.

Back to the Childhood

2009-03-06T07:05:00.000-08:00

Kind of long history ...Story would had begun in Dominican Republic where Diamond and Chocolate tasted their first body treatment with happiness. 15 years before, they already felt the best things for their balance.

Today, the chocotherapy is one of the most famous trends in the best hotels in the world.

Today, Diamond and Chocolate used to go once a year (as possible during winter time) in the same place and they choose the Majestic Colonial in Punta cana to be pampered as during their sweet childhood

Sweet, snow and sun...

Next step....in France,

Diamond and Chocolate arrived in Geneva airport and took their car ...direction ? Evian !

Chocolate found a great package in the Royal Evian Resort, then Diamond was agree to come (she doesn't like so much cold..and ski ? she prefers to be pampered rather more than anything else !!! sweet girl ;-) ) Chocolate is so addicted to ski than she wanted to enjoy everything...

They arrived in the resort, surrounded by trees in an amazing park with an exceptional view on the Leman Lake. It was the first nice surprise...

Discovering the Ermitage hotel was the second one : confortable rooms, waking up with the first rays of sun and enjoying the view on the lake from our terrace. Bar and food...perfect !

After a sunny day skiing on the slope with an amazing fresh snow, Diamond and Chocolate enjoyed the Heat massage with Peruvian basalt stones in the Maison des 4 terres...and were lazing in comfy armchairs feeling the warmth of the open fire...These 3 days were full of peaceful, fun and happiness !! Thanks to Diamond to agree with my snow ideas...! Next time, we will go back for summer time..
The Evian Royal Resort offers great packages for 3 days, a good combination with ski/spa/accomodation/nice restaurant...
Test it before the winter ends and share us your comments please !

snow, ski and.... COLD

2009-02-23T09:24:00.000-08:00

Chocolate really wants to go in the cold and snowy mountain... brrrr !! What do we do with that? She's is so into snow and slopes that is begining to be crazy. I think she will recommend you a very nice place (or even more) to go to. Chocolate???

I want sun and you???

2009-02-20T01:33:00.000-08:00

Bored of this crazy winter? Diamond & Chocolate want to tan their body. Where to go to be sure to have some sun at this period? hmmmm....we say Abu Dhabi!!

We recommend a beautiful hotel, very show off but very funny: The Emirates Palace. Just imagine you are someone else and do whatever you want to do. You have to try Dubai or Abu Dhabi once so let's try it NOW!! And if you really want some authenticity, just go for a trip in the desert

There is plenty of things to do!! And after a good day of intensive tanning, just relax in the Spa... try a rose petale bath.

Be zen.. stay zen...

2009-02-16T02:56:00.000-08:00

To relax a little bit from this so busy and crazy life, Diamond & Chocolate decided to experiment MEDITATION!!!
This is incredibly relaxing... You can join lessons everywhere but Diamond & Chocolate wanted to try a new fabulous place where they will be able to enjoy the best relaxation ever... this place is: The Palms Hotel in Zanzibar... Amazing. A pure moment of intense inside peace...
