Shower mist and tea from Ste. Anne’s Spa, Grafton, Ontario —
For that fresh–from–the–massage–table feeling, hit the shower with Ste.

Bedding from Fairmont Hotels & Resorts —
If you’re like us, one of the things you’re missing most about travel is an over–the–top hotel bed.

The Fairmont Bed and Bedding, from $89
