This is the fourth consecutive year that the Spanish beauty product firm has been awarded with this prestigious spa & wellness award, being the only brand in the world to receive this recognition four times in a row, which affirms Natura Bissé as the leading brand for luxury within the spa industry. Natura Bissé performs over 7.5 million treatments around the world every year. Its innovative rituals, based on unprecedented results and the incomparable power of touch, are combined with exceptional client service to create the most innovative formula that is capable of offering its distinguished clients unforgettable experiences.

“Receiving this award once more, especially after many months that have been so tough for the spa industry, fills us with satisfaction and motivates us to continue exploring our creative essence and our boundless curiosity for creating experiences that are able to transform our clients’ skin and their emotions. This award is shared with all our partner spas, which have become genuine retreats for not just physical but also mental and emotional peace and wellbeing.” – Verónica Fisas, CEO and Managing Director of the Natura Bissé Group.

The World Spa Awards™ were created in 2015 to raise the standards of wellbeing in the tourism sector and to serve as a mark of quality and reference point for consumers. Each year, professionals from the sector and clients vote on the worldspaawards.com website for the brand they consider to be the best spa brand in the world, along with other categories, in a voting process that lasts 16 weeks, this year stretching from May 19th until September 8th.

On this occasion, the annual World Spa Awards presentation ceremony took place online due to the current travel restrictions in place, with a virtual presence from the entire spectrum of the industry, from hotels and spa destinations to wellness retreats and leading brands in the sector.
