The deepest treatment menu west of Old Saybrook

From Old Saybrook it is a straight thirty minutes down I-95, and what you get at the end is a menu no shoreline studio matches: infrared sauna with halotherapy, the wellness pod, hydrotub therapy, body wraps and mud wraps in the wet room, plus the full massage, facial, nail and waxing menu.

Saybrook Point and Fenwick guests tend to book the recovery combinations — infrared sauna before a deep tissue massage, or hydrotub before a body wrap. Tell us at booking and we sequence the rooms so there is no waiting between services.
