Indulge in a Nordic Sanctuary of Wellness Aboard a Viking Ocean Cruise

After a day exploring Tallinn’s Gothic charm during a crisp autumn cruise in the Baltic with Viking, my tired legs and chilled cheeks are ready for a recharge. Enter The Spa, including Viking’s longstanding nod to the increasingly popular Nordic bathing tradition. This isn’t just a spa tacked onto a luxury liner for the sake of appearances; it’s a thoughtfully designed sanctuary inspired by Nordic traditions, and the Thermal Suite is free for all passengers.

Water Features Elevate Your Space with Artistic Vision and Soothing Serenity

Dark Planet Fountain  Transform your outdoor space into a sanctuary of sophistication with the Dark Planet fountain from David Harber. A testament to the meticulous craftsmanship and artistic vision that define luxury art today, the celestial form is constructed of smooth river rock or slate shards individually welded into a sphere of continuous water flow you can adjust from a quiet trickle to a more substantial sound that masks unwanted ambient noise. Standard dimensions include diameters of 30, 39 and a dramatic 47 inches, but additional sizes are available on request. Water tank and internal lighting included. From $24,104.
