Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn and Spa Renovation

Located in the heart of the storied Sonoma Valley wine region, the Fairmont Sonoma Mission and Spa renovation entailed the complete upgrade and remodel of the Willow Stream spa area which includes a custom Rain Tunnel. Comprised of 30 treatment rooms, the 40,000sf spa is the biggest in the area, boasting a variety of pools and hot tubs which are supplied water from local geothermal mineral springs. The Rain Tunnel is a new bathing ritual fed by the mineral water of the pool providing a whimsical way of experiencing the water features.

A new Dry Sauna Salt Therapy Room was created. The salts are heated and then ground to allow inhalation of tiny micro-particles of salt which have high concentrations of negative particles. The salt particles absorb moisture, alleviate inflammation, making it ideal for those with respiratory issues like asthma. Simultaneously, other renovations were performed in the bar area, under the historic water tower, which entailed the expansion and remodel of the existing courtyard.
