FEEL THE HEAT

Mexico’s oldest spa tradition allows individuals to sweat it out simultaneously. And it’s done in the dark. In Los Cabos, you’ll find the temazcal option plus a menu of classic spa treatments in resorts like  Playa Grande Resort & Grand Spa, ME Cabo, Hacienda Encantada Resort & Spa, and Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Golf & Spa Resort. The Temazcal is an ancient steam lodge that relies on the healing powers of earth, fire, water, and air to balance body, mind, and spirit. Participants are immersed in an aromatic steam bath within the darkened chamber, promoting deep relaxation and improved circulation. Since the experience is free of one collective purpose, individuals introduce themselves and state their goals for the ritual.

Named one of the top three spas in Mexico and South America by Condé Nast Traveler, Armonia Spa at Pueblo Bonito Pacífica Golf & Spa Resort is a full-service spa that offers a comprehensive menu of wellness-oriented body treatments.

With a vast menu of holistic rituals, exploring the intrinsic powers of earth, water, fire, and air, the serene, indoor/outdoor desert garden setting welcomes with the ancient tones of Tibetan singing bowls — said to begin the healing process even before your treatment begins.
