There you’ll find beautiful views, rejuvenating and holistic treatments, a fresh juice bar, and the island’s only hammam.

Splurge Treatment: Paradise on the Island is a three-hour treatment that begins with your choice of exfoliating body scrubs, followed by a body polish using fresh ingredients to condition your skin. A short visit to our hammam room prior to your treatment will give your complexion a healthy glow by flushing out toxins held just below the surface of your skin. Let stress and tension melt away with a flowing massage, using our own special blend of aromatherapy massage oils. Finally, enjoy a relaxing facial to cleanse, exfoliate, and leave your skin clean, balanced, and hydrated, ending with scalp massage.

Insider’s Favorite: The Customized Wellbeing Massage combines stimulating grapefruit, nutmeg and rosemary with deep tissue massage therapy. This concentrated treatment will unravel tension in sore and tight muscles, relieve deep stress and tension, and enhance the body’s circulation. This treatment is highly recommended for anyone suffering from chronic stress, pain, or tension.
