At the JW Marriott Tucson Starr Pass Resort & Spa in Tucson, Arizona, guests enjoy hiking, biking and swimming in the resort’s multi-level pool (including a lazy river and waterslide), dining on delicious cuisine, golfing and unwinding in a beautiful desert setting. For relaxation and pampering, head to the Hashani Spa. The spa's director, Marissa Bernal, gives us a look inside the stunning Hashani Spa.

Why You’ll Love It: You'll love the environment and the team. We are located in a unique part of the Sonoran Desert, surrounded by Saguaros—there is a magical energy here. The spa team is what truly sets us apart; we have a core group of providers that have been together since pre-opening. We will celebrate 14 years together this December. The entire team is absolutely invested in everything we do and assists in creating, designing and decision making.

We wouldn’t be successful without our team members. Each person brings a unique talent that supports the operation, and their time and energy is deeply appreciated. The resort’s location, nestled at the base of the Tucson National Forest, gives Hashani an upper hand because its surroundings are so pristine. The spa pool overlooks the desert foothills and mountains, and the wildlife and flora of the desert give this spa a serene energy that is calming like no other. Its surroundings truly make this a different experience.

After a spa treatment, guests can unwind on the patio at Primo and enjoy handcrafted Italian cuisine made from fresh ingredients grown at the resort.

Snacks: Fresh fruit and a natural homemade granola that is exclusive to Starr Pass are served by the culinary team each morning. We also have a special menu serviced by the in-room dining team for our guests that would like to enjoy a meal with us.

Hashani Foot Ritual.

Splurge Treatment: Definitely the Petals and Leaves Ritual! This treatment incorporates everything you love about the spa: body scrub, rebalancing massage, body wrap and a warm oil scalp massage. It’s a must-have.

Insider’s Favorite: My go-to treatment is the 100-minute Hashani Signature Massage that includes cupping, deep tissue and cranial sacral.
