Think a cruise spa is just a massage and a steam room? Think again. In this episode, Dr. Krystal Sodaitis uncovers the most luxurious wellness experiences at sea—from zero gravity massages to rainforest showers and bamboo therapy.
When we think of cruising, we imagine ocean views, endless buffets, and maybe a massage if we’re feeling fancy. But today’s luxury cruise spas are changing the game—turning wellness into a full-body, full-ship experience.
In this immersive episode, Dr. Krystal Sodaitis takes you on a tour of the most iconic cruise ship spas across major lines—from Seabourn’s earth-grounding massages and Regent’s amber quartz beds to Celebrity’s rainfall therapy rooms and Uniworld’s wine-infused facials.
She also dives into spa-specific staterooms, thermal suite hacks, embarkation-day deals, and how cruise lines are weaving wellness into every aspect of the journey—from plant-based menus to non-alcoholic botanical cocktails.
If you’ve ever dreamed of a floating sanctuary, this episode will help you book it, build it, or DIY it—no port stop needed.
