Best Spas in River Ridge

"We’re all so pushed and pulled from every side each day to ‘do,’ we forget the power of simply ‘Be-ing’” Such is the philosophy behind Belladonna Day Spa, an Uptown urban oasis where the services are focused on “being” rather than “doing.” Take the “Be Youthful” replenishing facial, for example, or the “Be Detoxed” seaweed treatment—better than any hair of the dog after a night out on Bourbon Street. Visitors will gravitate toward the “Be Bamboozled” body ritual, which incorporates herbal aromatherapy products designed to stave off travel tension. The hour-long treatment starts with a body scrub and green tea-milk bath, and culminates in a full-body massage."

Highlights include numerous exhibitions exploring the complexities of Southern and Louisiana history, 1,300 acres (526 hectares) of grounds, and the historic house itself—all within easy driving distance of New Orleans.More"

"About a one-hour drive from the centre of New Orleans, Oak Alley Plantation is well worth a visit if you’re heading out of the city. Now, a tour here will usually mean a two-hour stay but it’s well worth it if you want to learn more about the history of this house and plantation at your own pace.
