Natalie and Vara, our newest therapists

Experienced with Elemis

Originally from Surry, England, Natalie has been in Bermuda for more than three years and joined La Serena Spa in May 2011. Before moving to Bermuda, she ran her own Elemis Spa in London for 15 years. She is very excited that La Serena offers Elemis treatments and products, which she feels is the leading spa brand.

Natalie loves the intimate, client-friendly and tranquil atmosphere that La Serena offers its guests. Her favorite treatments are any of La Serena’s facials because clients see such immediate results. She is also a true believer in the Pro Collagen Marina Cream, an anti-aging facial cream, and has been using it for more than 10 years.

When you receive a facial from Natalie, it’s a completely relaxing spa experience and an educational one too. She’ll explain to you about proper skin care, so you can continue to see results at home.

 

Thai Massage

An expert at Thai massage, Vara brought her skills and seven years of experience to The Reefs at the end of June. Vara studied at the Ministry of Public Health in Thailand and trained in a hospital where she practiced her skills on physical therapy patients.

She’s lived in Bermuda for the past three years and most recently worked at the Thai Shop in Hamilton. In addition to Thai massages, she also enjoys providing Swedish and Sports massages as well as facials.

Vara is currently taking English classes so that she can better communicate with her La Serena Spa clients. Her clients already find her warm smile reassuring and leave feeling completely relaxed after one of her Thai massages!

Meet our Manicurist, Ana

Your nails are in excellent care with Ana. She’s famous on island, after being named “The Best Manicurist and Pedicurist in Bermuda” by The Bermudian magazine.

Born in Armenia, Ana moved to the United States with her family and lived in Los Angeles, California, for 20 years before joining La Serena Spa.

She has now been at La Serena for seven years, and considers it the best spa she has had the pleasure of working at. During her time here, she has seen La Serena transform from a small facility close to The Reefs’ entrance to the beautiful, open spa we have now.

Ana’s favorites at La Serena

With the new, larger spa, we more than doubled our therapists — from just four therapists to 10 — and the expertise you receive. Each therapist has her own specialty, and it’s exciting to see the new ideas and treatments being added to the menu.

Most recently, Ana has fallen in love with the new Warm Bamboo Massage. Fellow spa therapist, Karen, who recently joined La Serena brought the treatment knowledge with her. “Our clients absolutely love it! It really gets deep into the muscles, but is relaxing at the same time. I would have one every day if I could, it is a must have at the spa!”

Ana loves that she has the best ocean view room in the world to work from and share with clients while they are being pampered with Elemis Products.

Her favorite? “I am in love with the Exotic Frangipani Moisture Melt and the Skin Nourishing Milk Bath. I just cannot live without them. The best part is that they can be used in so many different ways — as an oil, hair treatment, lotion. The list goes on and on, and they’re great for anyone!”
