Puente Romano Beach Resort and Nobu Hotel Marbella are two luxury resort properties that are located on the Golden Mile in southern Spain, just steps from the sandy beaches and turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. The hotels are next to each other and guests at both properties have access to Six Senses Spa, which is located at Puente Romano Beach Resort.

Inspired by nature, Six Senses Spa combines the elements with the senses to create a fully immersive experience and offers a tranquil space for guests to relax. The treatment rooms feature oak oak timber floors, traditional Andalusian architecture and local stone to provide an authentic and calming feel. The spa’s treatment menu includes a selection of massages and wellness rituals that use natural ingredients sourced from southern Spain including extra virgin olive oil, sea salt and mountain herbs.

Six Senses Spa also offers a newly-launched innovative wellness concept that brings together the latest technology and in-house expertise with personalized wellness programs and nutritional advice. Each guest’s wellness stay begins with a screening that uses advanced technology to analyze key physiological biomarkers of their health, enabling one of Six Senses’ wellness experts to make lifestyle recommendations to help heal one’s body through a series of structured programs.

We interviewed Spa Manager Eli Hristova to learn more about treatments to try, insider tips, and more.

Why You’ll Love It: Guests are consistently impressed by our staff’s true, unwavering dedication to the natural wellness experience. Every treatment is personalized to each guest’s needs through our staff’s intuitive knowledge of science and human awareness. This allows for a service that crafts a high-tech and high-touch approach to life-changing treatments for each individual. 

Key Features: Our state-of-the-art facilities reflect authentic, Andalusian architecture through oak timber floors, local stone, and hand-painted tiles. Upon entry, guests will find the reception and lounge area featuring cozy swinging benches, and changing rooms are accessible through elegantly vaulted corridors.

Aside from the six indoor treatment rooms and three treatment rooms overlooking the ocean, the Six Senses Spa also offers hydrotherapy facilities—including an herbal steam room, dry sauna, cold water plunge pool, iced fountain, and experience showers, Hammam, an indoor swimming pool with hot tubs, Nail Bar overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, and Wet Zone. 

Snacks Served: Guests are able to enjoy ginger tea with cinnamon and roasted almonds without salt and dates as a welcoming treat.

Insider’s Tip: If it’s difficult to step away from the serenity of the beach or leave the comfort of your bed, our therapists are available on request to provide Nobu Signature Treatments.  

Bonus: Upon arrival, all spa guests are offered a welcome drink of warm ginger tea and will have access to the Wet Zone prior to their treatment. We recommend that guests take advantage of these facilities as it is a great way to stimulate the blood and lymphatic systems, enhancing the benefits of the spa treatment. 

Splurge Treatment: Our Pearl Remineralizing Body Mask is an 80-minute multi-sensory treatment that is a must for anyone looking to splurge. Guests will experience a head-to-toe skin-softening exfoliation, followed by a mineral-rich body mask infused with active ingredients of pearl and conch shell extracts that stimulate and regenerate skin cells. As the body is cocooned in the mask, guests will receive a signature facial Marma massage which releases tension and stress, using potent anti-aging actives of mogra and Indian rose.

Unique Treatment: Our most unique treatment is our CBD therapy by KLORIS experience which targets aching muscles, sore joints, stress, and sleep issues. The treatment uses KLORIS uplifting massage oil, which contains the terpenes of blood orange (a known mood supporter), luxurious oud, and warming vanilla for a stress-relieving treatment. This multi-layered treatment is designed to enrich the senses through scent, touch, and sound; incorporating therapeutic, expertly designed soundscapes produced with relaxing frequencies, whilst healing massage techniques invite the mind to slide into gentle tranquility and emerge with a renewed sense of positivity.

Insider’s Favorite: One of my favorite treatments that we offer is our Signature Hammam experience. The 50-minute service begins with a scalp ritual using a revitalizing hair mask, followed by a cleansing and refreshing exfoliation to stimulate and rehydrate the skin. If that’s not enough, we offer the 80-minute Royal Hammam which includes everything in the Signature Hammam experience, plus a rejuvenating back massage to release muscle tension.

Featured Products: Alongside CBD wellness brand KLORIS, we feature Ayurveda aromatherapy products from Subtle Energies and facial skincare products from iS Clinical.
