These Resorts Redefine Spa Serenity in Paradise

The Caribbean & Mexico need no introduction – it’s where relaxation, tranquility, and serenity all come together to create total paradise. Unwinding comes easy when in tropical perfection, but these resorts are redefining what serenity and peace really means.

Zoëtry Wellness & Spa Resorts

These resorts in Mexico, Jamaica, and the Dominican Republic are literally all about tranquility. Every inch, every step, every bite all works together to help guests reach absolute peace. Holistic rituals, state-of-the-art spas, and heart-healthy locally-grown cuisine all leads to, as they put it, The Art of Life®. And we have to agree.

The world-class spas are worth the trip alone, where holistic well-being and ultimate spa treatments will leave you more than rejuvenated. At some Zoëtry Resorts, thalassotherapy treatments are offered, featuring treatment cabins, saltwater pools, and steam rooms – total havens of healing. Thalassotherapy treatments use heated seawater, seaweed, marine mud, minerals, and natural nutrients to release toxins and to send you into pampering bliss.

Some specific treatments they specialize in include:

• Vitamin C Sun Repair Treatment— You will also be in tropical paradise, remember, catching plenty of rays. This anti-aging, sun repair facial uses nutrients from fresh oranges.
• Thalasso Serenity Anti-Stress Program – Life can be stressful, but that’s what Zoëtry’s for. They have a whole program dedicated to it.
• Deep Cleansing Facials – Diminishes pores and purifies the skin deeply.
• Bamboo Scrubs – Because purifying, exfoliating, and moisturizing is better with bamboo.

Le Blanc Spa Resorts

Le Blanc is le peaceful in Cancun and Los Cabos. Unbelievable spa settings, rejuvenating treatments, and a fusion of European and Asian spa experiences create an unforgettably calming time. Their suggested spa day goes something like this:

Begin hydrotherapy with a quick shower. Detox the body using a sauna or steam rooms. Take a refreshing shower. Relax for a while in the deluxe Jacuzzi or hydro-reflexology pool. Cool off with an aromatic facial towel. Take a dip in both cool and warm pools. Take one more quick shower. Stay hydrated with refreshing drinks throughout, like tea or water. Now’s time for the spa treatment.

Sound like a good day? We thought so.

Some of their signature treatments include:
