Food is a substantial portion of any vacation. At Stein Eriksen Lodge Deer Valley you won’t find food like ours at any other Deer Valley hotel. Your stomach will be satisfied with house made chocolates and plates from our Four Star Restaurant. However, all that food can start to make your pants fit a little tighter; but don’t worry we have the solution.

It is no secret that spa treatments feel wonderful. Someone gently massages your hurt and tired muscles while soft music plays. The gentle pressure applied to your muscles and the soothing sounds leave you feeling relaxed and calm. Although it sounds wonderful, some people are hesitant about spa treatments for modesty purposes.

At Stein Eriksen Lodge Deer Valley, home to Utah’s only Five Star Spa, each guest can customize their experience to suite their needs. Locker room feature private changing rooms and plush terry cloth robes in each of the key-less lockers.  Before the treatment you and your therapist will discuss the treatment and each guest can decide how to dress according to their comfort level. The professional therapists take great care to modestly drape clients throughout all the treatments.

Signature Wellness Treatments

Regardless of a treatment you are left in the treatment room at the beginning and end of treatment to remove and put your robe back on before returning to the relaxation room and locker room with hot tub, saunas and plush couches.

There are two wet-room designated for Vichy shower treatments.  In the center of the room is a massage bed with a cascading adjustable Vichy rain-bar above it. During  the signature Stein Body Polish treatment a rich mixture of cedar, sage and salt crystals are massaged to exfoliate and revive skin cells while you lay on a treatment bed with modestly draped towels.

During a facial you lie on a massage table with warm blankets covering your body.  A typical facial involves massage of shoulders and upper chest and can be customized to suite guests needs.

All massages in the personalized body work category are aimed to bring wellness and relaxation to the guest. The professional therapists will skillfully adjust sheets during the treatments to provide complete modesty to the client.

Whatever treatment you choose rest assured our spa specialist will treat with respect and make you feel comfortable. Feel free to contact the Spa Concierge with any questions about your treatment.

Book a vacation with your Park City Hotel and get ready to explore the mountains in a whole new way.

On the drive back from the former Olympic venue, I realized how alive the Olympic spirit is in Park City.  Not only is it the chosen home for the United States Ski and Snowboard Team’s state-of-the-art training facility, The Center of Excellence; athletes travel here to train year-round. The Utah Olympic Park, for example, is a venue that houses the Alf Engen Ski Museum but also serves as a training and competition venue for Bobsled, Skeleton, Aerials and Nordic Ski Jumping.

In addition to providing current athletes with the tools for success, Park City is proud to be the home of retired Olympic athlete, Stein Eriksen. Each day I have the great pleasure of walking past his trophy case in the Main Lodge with Stein’s two Olympic medals predominantly displayed. For the past sixty years, Stein Eriksen has revolutionized the world of alpine skiing and is credited with devising the freestyle event “aerials.”

In celebration of tonight’s World Cup Aerial Events, it is my pleasure to share with you some images of Stein Eriksen.

This year Mother Nature decided to participate in the festivities by blanketing the town in 48″ of snow over the past three days. Skiing at Deer Valley Resort is incredible with all 21 lifts turning. The Main Lodge is bustling with skiers and movie goers enjoying lunch or aprés by the fire.

On January 23, Brooke Anderson hosted a segment of  The Insider from Stein Eriksen Lodge. Watch her interview with Spa Director Jill Van Ausdal here.

I discussed the benefits of the Amala Hydrate line with Assistant Spa Director, Breann Vail. “The benefits of the hydrate line is it will restore lasting moisture to dull, dehydrated skin and smooth dry, uneven texture and soothe chapped sensitive skin.”  All of these benefits are perfect for guests effected by the dry climate and altitude. “I also always recommend drinking lots and lots of water to keep your skin hydrated,” says Breann.

For more than 50 years, Forbes Travel Guide’s Five-Star ratings have been the gold standard by which hotels, restaurants and spas are measured. The hospitality industry respects and reveres the Five-Star rating system, and travelers put their faith in it as they decide where to stay, dine and explore.

To win this distinction within a year of expanding and enhancing our spa is truly exhilarating. Read more…
