Dior’s First Permenant Spa in Italy
The Dior Spa Splendido continues the hotel’s legacy as an icon of style and elegance, with four treatment rooms immersed in a uniquely beautiful location.

Accessible via the hotel’s reception and gardens, the Dior Spa Splendido welcomes guests into an elegant lounge bathed in natural light, with earthy tones and completed with Dior’s finest skincare, makeup, and fragrance products. Set across two floors, the Spa includes three individual treatment rooms, one of which transforms into a beauty boudoir, as well as a majestic double cabin with uninterrupted views of the sea. Each is adorned with quartzite stone, oak wood, and design details inspired by Dior’s iconic Toile de Jouy, reinterpreted in soft lime tones.
The centerpiece is the rooftop terrace, offering guests an oasis of relaxation post-treatment. Hemmed by lush gardens on the mountainside, it commands charming sea views. Here, natural materials such as rattan, reed canopies, and cotton drapes create a shaded cocoon around lounge chairs and a wellness bar serving bespoke beverages.

Transformative Treatments
The extensive menu offers a selection of treatments designed for body, face and mind, drawing inspiration from the hotel’s unique location, in the protected National Park of Portofino, at the heart of the Ligurian bay. Inspired by the stars and the moon, the signature Splendidior treatment harnesses the energetic power of semi-precious stones, whilst New Look, D-Tissue, and Constellation are full body treatments aimed at redefining the silhouette, release tension and reoxygenate muscles, for deep relaxation.
The Kobi-Dior, Golden Aura, and Dior Powered by Hydrafacial facial treatments incorporate the best anti-aging techniques, while the La Dolce Vita Therapy combines the refined facilities of the Spa with the tranquillity of the hotel’s gardens and includes a yoga session, a relaxing body massage, and a radiance-enhancing facial.
