Exclusive: Michael Tompkins unveils plans for Hilton Head Health
ISPA chair and former CEO of Miraval Resort and Spa Michael Tompkins has out- lined the specifics of the spa planned at Hilton Head – a leading US weight loss des- tination retreat of which he is now CEO. The Indigo Spa will measure 3,000sq ft (279sq m) when erected and will com- prise six treatment rooms – two of which will open up to become a couples’ suite – and two of which have showers for body treatments. There will also be a 500sq ft (46sq m) salon, featuring two manicure and two pedicure stations in addition to an express mini-peel room. Tompkins noted that, as a weight loss
resort, the main building already has many fitness-based wellbeing amenities, such as a fitness centre, two fitness studios and a yoga studio, in addition to board
Tompkins said the business may look to expand in the midwest, where it has a large client-base
rooms and a recently remodelled fine din- ing restaurant. The facilities that will be added to this main building include a pilates studio and a Thai massage room. “We’re adding a 30-bedroom inn
because currently the villas on the prop- erty are privately-owned condos around the golf course,” said Tompkins. “The spa will open just after the new year [in 2015].” Read more:
