Cyprus is only 4 Hours from London and hot enough to lie in the sun even in the Winter and Spring months. The Anassa has won the Tatler Award for World Top Spa Legend 2007 and the Villegiature Award Best Resort in Europe 2006. After visiting for a week in May last year, I totally agreed with these verdicts. The Anassa is situated in a beautiful bay (by a nature reserve-so still natural and unbuilt). The architectural interiors are visually impressive as you enter, and the staff attentive. This is a luxurious and glamorous 5* Hotel where as a woman, you might wish to dress stylishly at night appropriate to the surroundings, especially as two of the restaurants offer ‘serious’ gourmet food, beautifully presented, served in romantic dining rooms. Equally if you are on your own or with your family and children, you will have no need to dress up at all, as you may simply move from the beach and poolside (or even your own private pool in a garden villa) during the daytime to the more casual buffet dining room, poolside restaurants or special entertainment nights such as the beach barbeque and the Greek night set outside with traditional dancing and music. Although the food is fantastic you can still leave feeling fit and svelte as there is an excellent nutritionist on hand to help you with your dietary requirements. At the breakfast buffet there is even a ‘healthy corner’ with soya milk and wheat free cereals and bread, whilst the Spa has a special, delicious, menu too and a juice bar. The Spa is a place that is not simply an adjunct to the Hotel but somewhere you could come for a week to de-tox, train in the gym, swim in the indoor pool, practise yoga with the Yoga teacher and chill out with pampering and relaxing well-executed treatments. My Polish masseur Mariusz was one of the best masseurs I have discovered anywhere in the world. I cannot recommend the Anassa enough for a short break or long stay, as you will be welcomed and looked after perfectly whether you are on your own (as I was) or with friends and family.

Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese art of creating balance and harmony in the home or workplace through manipulation of "chi".
Cuba is everything you expect it to be. The vintage 50’s cars; the amazing but faded beauty of Art Deco and Spanish Baroque grand architecture; the music; the vibrancy; and the friendliness of the Cuban people.
I have used this wrap when I have needed to look my best for a red carpet event, or a TV appearance. We girls all have "feeling fat" days, even if we actually aren’t any different in size from the day before, but at those times of the month, or after a few days of over indulgence, then this wrap is definitely a quick fix to help you feel and look slimmer. After the treatment you really have lost inches, and the skin appears smoother. Even better the effect is guaranteed for 30 days – or your money back (as far as they are aware, this is the only beauty treatment available in the UK that offers such a guarantee). Of course, with any treatment, it works best when it is done on a course basis, together with a healthier diet and exercise. But there is no doubt that Universal contour wrap works and helps you look better for that special occasion. I believe that it is the only treatment of its kind that guarantees an inch loss. It certainly works for me brilliantly. I have my treatments at the Balance, Kings rd, London SW3
