Norwegian Cruise Line plans two-deck spa on next ship

Norwegian Cruise Line's next ship will have one of the most elaborate spa and fitness complexes at sea -- a sprawling, two-deck temple to relaxation that will feature what's billed as the first salt room on a cruise ship.

The 23,000-square-foot Mandara Spa on the soon-to-debut, 4,000-passenger Norwegian Breakaway also will have a large thermal suite with 13 heated loungers, vitality pool, whirlpools, sauna, solarium and steam room, along with a full-service salon and barber shop, the line announced today.

The salt room will be designed for therapies aimed at alleviating respiratory and skin ailments, strengthening the immune system, promoting better sleep and having a long-term positive impact on overall lung function, the line says. It'll feature a grotto setting.
