Caudalie is located on the grounds of the Chateau Smith- Haut Lafite a grand cru vineyard.
There is no more beautiful spot than Les Sources de Caudalie, the Vinotherapie Spa not far from Bordeaux.
I just spent a few days there being pampered and getting lots of rest. The location is absolutely beautiful and the treatments are sublime. Everything is related to the fabulous Haut- Smith Lafite vineyards as the spa is located on its premises. Many of the treatments relate to the vineyard such as a grape seed gommage, and wine bath. I treated myself to a couple of different massages, baths, and a soothing facial. It was glorious.
There was a beautiful and interesting guest list including Jean Paul Gauthier and his friends. A star studded group.
There are two different dining rooms as well as a lovely area near the pool for lunch. The chef,
Nicholas Maase, does a magnificent job in the gourmet dining room Le Grande Vigne as well as the more casual La Table du Lavoir.
I highly recommend this Spa for an experience you can't help but think is fabulous.
