The Chateau Saint-Martin & Spa hotel in the French Riviera is partnering with Himalayan destination spa Ananda in September 2014 to create a unique detox programme.

Ananda yoga guru Sushant Pandley has designed a spa and yoga menu in the form of five, seven or nine-day packages for guests of the iconic Oetker Collection hotel, which is nestled between olive groves and lavender gardens near the Cote d’Azur.

The personalised programme will include ayurvedic therapies, yoga, meditation and theoretical aspects of yogic tradition. Guests will also enjoy breakfast and lunch served in the new “Le 180°” bistro with menus in harmony with Ananda’s ayurvedic principles.

The pop-up programme at Chateau Saint-Martin & Spa will also take place in 2015, but exact dates have not yet been confirmed.

The spa at Chateau Saint-Martin features four treatment rooms and a couples’ room which includes its own sauna, steamroom and experience shower. Massages are also available in the chateau’s gardens in a ‘romantic gazebo’.

Products used in the spa are by La Prairie and Bamford. The spa is accompanied by a beauty salon, fitness centre and extensive yoga classes.
