New Yorkers are notably some of the most stressed individuals in the world.

We pound the concrete each workday and constantly are on the go. But there is a world just a ferry ride away that will melt all your troubles away.

Escape the frenzy and enter the grand world of QC New York Spa. Located just a brief walk right off the Governors Island you find this magical place that is an oasis of bliss. Faster than a New York minute you are allowed to be a version of your best self. You enter the doors of this haven that within a moment rejuvenates and refreshes your existence.

Visiting the spa on a unique day on April 8 to witness the historical eclipse only added on to how incredibly special this place is to those lucky enough to walk through their doors. It was clear day in the 70s with a cool breeze blowing over the island. Guests were simply enchanted as they wore protection googles as they set in heated outdoor pools. They looked up with awe as they counted their blessings to be able to see such an amazing thing that Mother Nature created. The sky was splendid and matched the stunning surroundings just perfectly. Everyone who was there knew that being able to see the eclipse at QC New York Spa was something for the memory books.

Offering a wide range of amenities and services, this is not just an ordinary spa. It is breathtakingly beautiful the way every aspect is carefully and thoughtfully put together. From rooms of wonder to amazing culinary service and kindhearted staff, this is a divine experience that is a must to do in New York City.

Manhattan skyline views overlook this sweet arena of joy and happiness. Unwind and be elevated for the day. Dedicated to enlightening guests in the Italian art of “dolce far niente”— the sweetness of doing nothing — QC New York invites guests to wander for hours, discovering more than 20 wellness experiences throughout the four floors of the 74,000-square-foot spa.

Much of QC Spa of Wonders is influenced by and rooted in history and culture such as by ancient Roman baths. Traditions and philosophies of the past come to New York City to fulfill all your modern desires. QC New York is part of the renowned QC Spa of Wonders. This destination day spa is located on Governors Island, the only location outside of Europe. The day spa is situated across three historic Army Barrack buildings on the Island, which have been refurbished and preserved to maintain the rich history of the local property while bringing it new life. To be here is to witness a brilliant landscape that enriches your mind and soul during a visit.

Guests can enjoy Vichy showers, saunas, infrared beds, and more than a dozen relaxation rooms. You can also sit in the Fireplace Room and relax in a rocking chair by the fire while enjoying a complimentary face mask or take in music in another room as you sip on fresh apple cider.

The first U.S. location from Italy’s QC Spa of Wonders, QC New York is on a mission to inspire New Yorkers and tourists to embrace the Italian way of doing “spa” year-round by turning it into an entire day or evening experience full of wonder and relaxation rather than just an hour-long treatment.

Affordable passes include access to pools, relaxation areas, saunas, steam rooms, bathrobes, sandals, towels, complimentary showers, and body and skincare products. Massages, food, and beverages are available separately for purchase.

Established in the 1990s in Italy by two brothers, Saverio and Andrea Quadrio Curzio – thus, the name “QC.” Ultimately, their vision and roots in construction enabled them to expertly innovate and develop the global brand, which offers 11 incredible destinations throughout Europe that over 1.5 million visitors from around the world come to experience each year. Locations include Bormio Bagni Vecchi, Bormio Bagni Nuovi, Pré Saint Didier, Milano, Torino, Garda, Monte Bianco, San Pellegrino, Roma, Dolomiti, and Chamonix.
