Inside Dior’s luxury floating spa cruise on the river Seine

Paris is well versed in luxury. So when Haute Couture fashion week kicks off in the city, it’s hard for fashion houses to find that extra little “Je ne sais quois”. Not for Dior Beauty though, with the Maison taking over the luxury Paris yacht, Excellence, for an ultra chic Dior Spa Cruise until July 14th.

Docked along the Quai Henry in the 4th arrondissement, the luxurious floating spa’s 120 square metre top deck is adorned with decadent furnishings such as cane sunbeds, branded cushions and umbrellas in their signature blue Toile de Jouy pattern. As for the below deck, you’ll find four serene private rooms with boucle sofas and cream carpets offering opulent facials using the latest Dior Beauty launches.

Treatments range from the viral, much-hyped hydrofacial (a deep cleansing exfoliation completed by the Dior Floral Peeling Lotion) to a high precision facial (pegged as a reverse aging experience that buffs, contours and regenerates your skin). But before settling into your chosen experience, the staff will offer you a glow shot, essentially a pink-hued beauty elixir of rose water, sakura, collagen and acerola.

Then there’s the views. Sit back on your Dior monogrammed massage bed and watch as the boat leisurely passes the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Notre Dame and Grand Palais. If you prefer to zone out while having your face prodded at? There’s also a chance to lap up the gorgeous Seine views for an hour afterwards while enjoying juices and light canapes such as fruit bowls and nut bars.

Not to fret if you miss out on the highly-coveted treatments, as the cruise offers an equally decadent yoga, pilates, or ‘postural stretching’ workout classes as part of their wellness cruise experience, too. If you’re really going for it – there’s also the option to combine both for the ultimate four-hour relaxation cruise.

With only two days left, head straight to book.pure-informatique.com to secure your spot on the summer’s chicest cruise.
