One of the most exclusive spas in Florida’s northeast Miami-Dade County, Spa Serenity is a unique sanctuary of wellness and relaxation located at Turnberry Colony, a lavish residential enclave consisting of two 38-story oceanfront towers featuring 260 luxury condominiums. Turnberry Colony is situated on 650 feet of pristine oceanfront property in Sunny Isles Beach, between Bal Harbour and Golden Beach.

The private residences range from two to five bedrooms with private direct-entry elevator lobbies, 10-foot ceilings, wraparound balconies with ocean views, and more. The property is also home to an old world West Indies beach club complete with elegant gourmet dining, a fitness center, salon, and world-class spa.

Spa Serenity is Turnberry Ocean Colony’s source for relaxation that is just a quick elevator ride away. To book an appointment, you have to be a resident—it isn’t open to the public. Whether you set aside 20 minutes or two hours, the spa has invaluable therapies and complimentary amenities that exemplify the Turnberry lifestyle. It has 4 massage rooms and 1 facial room featuring trusted face and body products such as Valmont, and offers spa-at-home retail selections and speciality gifts that have been selected with the buildings’ resident’s sensibilities in mind.

We interviewed Spa Director Katrina Kalkowski, who shared insider recommendations, splurge-worthy spa services, special amenities, and more.

Why You’ll Love It: They love the exclusivity and that they have a dedicated therapist to book any time they want. Most residents have standing facial and massage appointments weekly with their therapist. We have introduced the Valmont Regenerating Collagen Face Mask as an upgrade to all our massages and the residents are loving it.

Key Features: 

• Quiet Lounges: coffee, herbal teas, and energy snacks are available from morning to evening every day.

• Vanity areas: beauty and grooming amenities selected especially just for our residents.

• Locker areas: full-length hooded robe, sandals, and a swimsuit bag for wet clothing.

• Spa areas: cedar sauna, eucalyptus-infused steam room, and hydro-massage Jacuzzi.

The Turnberry Ocean Colony Fitness Center boasts an excellent array of services, equipment, and over 45 complimentary classes a week—all in an ocean-view ambience that is very Turnberry.

Insider’s Tip: Katrina Kalkowski, Director of Spa, Fitness, and Pool & Beach, has eight years of spa management experience and is one of the youngest in the industry. She is constantly bringing in new trends and innovative ideas to her role. You can always hear her tell her residents to take time out each day to relax and take care of themselves first. She is a big believer in preventative health and work-life balance.

Snacks Served: We have a full-time chef that curates a health-conscious menu for our guests at the spa.

Bonus: Guests enjoy a specialized chocolate and vegan health bar after each service.

Insider’s Favorite: Valmont Facial Ritual-Summit of Cervin. With this undeniable lifting and firming expert treatment, Valmont showcases its technical expertise in five steps as a tribute to the fifth highest peak in the Swiss Alps, the Summit of Cervin. The skin is lifted and smoothed, and face volume appears sculpted and plumped.

Unique Treatment: Madero Therapy Massage. It’s an effortless and efficient way of contouring the body without harming the skin and tissue. Wood therapy also helps fight cellulite, tone, and reduce stored fat on your body, leaving it silky smooth.

Splurge Treatment: Pure Fiji Royal Body Ritual. First, a full-body scrub with coconut milk, honey, and sugar is used to soften and smooth your body. Next, a hydrating body mask is applied to nourish the skin, while a coconut oil is gently massaged into the hair and scalp. Finally, a soothing body butter is applied to leave the skin smooth and supple resulting in a healthy glow from head-to-toe!

Featured Products: Pure Fiji, SkinCeuticals, and Valmont.
