Raasthe with Ruchi | La Torretta Lake Resort & Spa Experience

Just an hour north of downtown Houston, nestled along the shores of the beautiful 22,000 acre Lake Conroe, La Torretta Lake Resort & Spa is a Texas resort a world apart from the bustle of city life. Recently undergone a $130 million expansion and renovation, La Torretta Lake Resort & Spa promises to provide visitors an unforgettable vacation and meeting experience.

The amenities include lavish suites with lakeview. A 17,000-square-foot spa that has 20 treatment areas, a full-service salon, barber shop, and separate men’s and women’s relaxation lounges incorporating floatation tubs, hamams, scrub rooms and experience shower rooms. Five tennis courts and a 10,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art fitness center with circuit and weight areas, racquetball, Pilates, spin and yoga studios round out the extensive amenities for even the most health-conscious guest.

Both kids and adults can enjoy La Torretta’s 3.5-acre, lakefront Aqua Park. A sandy beach is located on a quiet lake inlet and is ideal for sunning or splashing around in beautiful Lake Conroe all day.

Feeling hungry while splashing around the water park? You can munch along at the aqua park or pool side with my favorites like shrimp coconut, spicy buffalo wings, and cool off with a mango margarita. Other eating recommendations: If you want to dress up for the evening, remember to have booked your reservation to eat out at Chez Roux, or you can enjoy a glass of wine at the sophisticated Piano Bar where you never know who might be sitting next to you; maybe a film producer or even a diplomat! At another on-site eatery Prime, you can enjoy a casual $20/person dinner buffet which includes steak and salmon.

Wrap up your stay with a visit to the Spa Terra with a ‘Passage to India’ that combines ayurvedic therapies and a relaxing bath or enjoy from one of their many special facials and therapies.

Here’s to temptations and the good life!
