The Ongoing Irony of Booking a Relaxing Spa Break

Here's irony: I'm trying to book a spa break while my boyfriend is away and it's actually a very stressful thing to attemp to do.

What I've found is that while some hotels offer accomodation and "entry" to a spa, they don't actually include any treatments. Correct me if I'm wrong, but how can that be classed as a spa package weekend where no spa related activities are expected to take place within the package? Or, if you want to stay in a dedicated spa it seems to be that a) they are very expensive just for a two night stay and b) stuck in the middle of no-where on the outskirts of a city where the only means of transport is taxi - which I can only imagine won't be a quick journey and therefore not a cheap journey.

Also the fact that I am going on my own seems to be fairly abnormal whereby they whack on single supplements left, right and centre. Am I being strange that I want to go to a spa on my own i.e. away from people I see and speak to every day and just have some of my own company? Unless you're going on a girlie weekend, I can't see why you would want to go with anyone to a spa. All I plan to do is (hopefully) have a couple of treatments, relax by a pool with a cold, crisp glass of Pino Grigio and read. That' s all I want to do, I don't want to talk, to make conversation, I literally just want to be quiet! So therefore would not be good company for anyone but myself! It would seem that I am in the minority for thinking this way though.

And so my search continues. My prerequisites are:

Central location or close to local attractions
An actual spa break i.e. with treatments!
Nice accomodation
Hotel bar and restuarant
Overall: not cheap but not expensive

Wish me luck...
