The SPA is definitely a must-try. The rooms are situated over the water with views of the mangroves and the ocean. There is a wonderful relaxing outdoor lodge where you can enjoy a drink and the gorgeous views. Elvira’s tip: try the body scrub when you land before getting the suntan for a perfect tan and the 24 facial karat treatment.
Here is my list of all procedures

These exclusive treatments draw inspiration from the island and around the world
