Relaxation and tranquility is coming to U Street. Urban Adventures Companies, Inc. (UAC), the DC-based urban lifestyle and entertainment company, announced today that construction has begun for Aura Spa at VIDA Fitness-U Street, located at the company’s flagship fitness and lifestyle complex at 1612 U Street, NW. Positioned directly off VIDA’s first floor lobby, the new 5,000 square-foot Aura Spa will be the company’s third location and most advanced day spa with larger treatment rooms, an expanded menu of services and cutting-edge design finishes. The grand opening of Aura Spa-U Street is slated for April 2013 with $1 million in development costs.

Situated on two floors, the new Aura Spa will introduce a soundproof lower level to create a reflective and relaxing spa experience. Patrons will be greeted with a larger reception area and prep stations before entering four 250-square-foot state-of-the-art treatment rooms. Aura Spa plans to launch a new website at www.auraspa.net highlighting new services, treatment options and spa offerings in late January 2013.

Aura Spa is a premier revitalizing day spa treatment facility that offers relaxation and detoxification treatments, including skin care, facials, body treatments and massage therapy with current locations at the Renaissance Washington, DC Hotel in Penn Quarter and Metropole complex in Logan Circle.
