Insider’s Tip: The spa always has a special of the month, so be sure to ask what it is. June’s special is a facial, massage or scrub summer special, which is a 45-minute package that includes either a hydrating facial, relaxing sanctuary massage, or scrub! Our skilled technicians will create a sanctuary away from the stress of everyday life. Deep tissue is available for an additional $10. It includes a cheese and cracker plate to enjoy by the waterfall spa, as well as access to the pool and waterfall spa from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. (24-hour notice required). It costs $99 per person.

Spa Snacks: Guests can order from a selection of items from our onsite restaurant, Estéban Restaurant. We also have our special spiced tea available daily.

Insider’s Favorite: The Peaceful Body Treatment. Relying on the power of plant extracts and essential oils, this botanically-based treatment deeply relaxes the body while also quieting the mind. Passionflower extract has long been touted as an age-old solution for relieving tension, reducing stress, and even offsetting anxiety. Using potent passionflower paired with fragrant magnolia, this treatment leaves you feeling relaxed and renewed. The service includes a full-body scrub followed by a massage with passionflower balm, creating a peaceful fragrant venture for your skin. 60 min/ $125 (30-minute scrub + 30-minute application of hydrating cream) 90 min / $180 (30-minute scrub + 60-minute application of cream during massage).

There is also the XMF Extreme Facial (90 min./$185), an ultra-pampering combination of a relaxing back massage and a super luxurious facial that leaves your head and neck relaxed and the skin plump, smooth, and lifted! The hero in this treatment is Morio Orchid oil paired with Dictyopteris, a brown algae that mimics hyaluronic acid to instantly volumize deep lines. Our secret to lifting the face and jowls lies within the facial massage techniques that create a muscle response at the ear to elevate tired muscles of the face. A gentle lip exfoliation and mask softens the contours of the mouth, resulting in a kissable, fuller pout. Dive right into serious pampering with this 90-minute treat!
