It was the last few decades of the 19th century when the European elite, at the same time that distances shortened with the advance of the railways, used to relax (for extensive seasons) in one of the spas that were opening their doors making the most out of the old thermal fountains. One of those exclusive destinations next to the sea which offered therapies with clay and algae was located on the island of Lido, in Venice. Its fame was so big that it was even used to acclimate famous novels (like ´Death in Venice´ by the Nobel Prize winner Thomas Mann) and stories (true or fictitious) of love and passions of all sorts.
Today the traveller has become more heterogeneous but, like those aristocrats from the past, he also looks for small shelters where to relax and regain their strength. The island of Lido still has the spa tradition that made it famous but, of course and as it should be, it´s adapted to modern times. And it´s precisely here where Lanna Gaia has its centre, a beauty, health and spa centre that offers Thai massages and authentic Oriental treatments. Any self-loving sybarite, from his apartments in Venice will book a session (there are some of up to four hours) at Lanna Gaia to feel like an aristocrat from the past.
