We treated ourselves to a blissful spa session, beginning in a soothing sweat hut. Bathrobes were provided, though you can wear a bikini if you prefer. A small bowl of barro (clay) was used to gently scrub the skin while we sweated and detoxed, and sitting on banana leaves felt wonderfully soft against the glutes. The experience continued with a gentle, relaxing massage and concluded with a refreshing cocktail included in the session. Highly recommend!
