It’s the middle of September, which means it’s time to celebrate my birthday. Luckily for me, MeltSpa by Hershey officially opened on September 12—just in time for my daughter and me to enjoy the sweet day spa. My millennial is a fashion news writer at Refinery29 and just finished covering New York Fashion Week. I am spending all my free time preparing and organizing the Chico’s Meet-Up (click here to learn more) next month in New York City.
The Spa at Hotel Hershey gets booked fast. Because I didn’t make the appointments in time, the new MeltSpa is a perfect backup venue for relaxation and rejuvenation on such short notice—the newly renovated facility in the former Hershey Drugstore on Chocolate Avenue.
The Chocolate Town story continues as its motto states: the sweetest place on earth. Milton Hershey had a clear vision in 1894 with his milk chocolate bar. That particular area remains true to Hershey’s standard as a planned community. Any retail facility is strategically designed and must adhere to the Hershey Zoning Committee. The new MeltSpa is no different.
Just like the Spa at the Hershey Hotel, which offers signature chocolate treatments, the MeltSpa specializes in dark chocolate indulgences. The new resort is smaller than the original hotel facility, but it is chic and definitely accommodating.
My daughter and I each chose 50-minute traditional massages. While we didn’t indulge in any other treatments, the day spa does offer salon areas for nails, hair, and facials. The location is smaller than the original spa at the Hershey Hotel, and you may not feel as inclined to say all day (as there are no dining options or a big lounge area), but the spa is worth a visit if you live nearby.
It has a unique feature with chocolate and an excellent quick get-in and out Day Spa experience.
My birthday celebration continued with a family dinner at a local venue, the Greystone Public House, and family karaoke at home.
If you have any sweet places where you celebrate your special days and milestones, do share them in the comments section.
Thank you for reading. Have a stylish and healthy week.
p.s. A huge thank you to Nina, who blogs at Sharing A Journey (also a Fierce 50 friend), for the beautiful Happy Birthday video she shared on Facebook.
It’s great to see you celebrating and those pants are TDF. Enjoy every moment my dear and God Bless.
Hope your birthday was fantastic! Those pants, yes to the whole look!
