The Spa Grand Velas offers more than 80 different skin and body treatments in 20 beautifully designed treatment rooms, with separate facilities for men and women. Interiors of the 1,700-square-foot spa are inspired by nature and styled with contemporary Mexican decor and Balinese accents. Stunning black pebbled stone rugs along with flowing water features provide a background of calm, and the professional staff is eager to offer suggestions on which treatment best suits each guest’s needs. The 80-minute Samunprai Massage, which utilizes dried herbs such as ginger, lavender, laurel, and tamarind, is a current favorite.

A nutritious spa cuisine menu takes the spa experience a step further. Between treatments, guests can relax in the infrared sauna, eucalyptus or herbal steam room, and the cold plunge pool. The salon provides hair treatments, cuts, color, as well as waxing. Kids can enjoy spa treatments such as the Princess Massage, Dreams Nails, and Chocolate Facial in suite or in the beach area; adults must be present.

Fantastic Experience
By LaurenB | June 1, 2010
5.00 out of 5 stars
The Grand Velas spa is a gorgeous, modern spa that has something for everyone. They have very unique treatments and a wonderful water ritual, which includes 5 spa "therapies" prior to your treatment. I was badly burnt by the sun so I changed my treatment from a massage to a skin-soothing experience, which worked wonders. The spa itself is very serene and calming, and the staff is very attentive. My experience was unforgettable and I raved about it to my family, who have already booked a trip to the resort.

Amazing Spa! Perhaps my favorite!
By KatherineM | March 25, 2010

This may well be my favorite spa, anywhere! The service is wonderful, right down to the tranquil, serene surroundings including the staff that learns quickly who you are and discretely and quietly come to find you when your treatment room is ready – it’s as if they walk on air, ensuring they do not jar you or disturb the others enjoying the relaxing atmosphere of the hydrotherapy or relaxation area. The treatments I’ve had were all fantastic, and the surroundings are some of the most beautiful anywhere!

Best Spa in Mexico
By melissag | October 13, 2009

I love the spa at Grand Velas. The spa menu is very extensive and the services provided are top notch. I have had massages, facials and body treaments, all of them being very good. you cannot go wrong with whatever you choose. I also highly recommend going to the spa at least an hour before your treatment so you can use the hydrotherapy area. it is a great way to start to relax and prepare yourself for your treament.

Day Late
By Denise | August 30, 2006
4.00 out of 5 stars
the resort was breathtaking. The lounge was beatiful. My first 5 minutes were very pleasent. Then I learn my room was not ready on Saturday. My time share held my room from Friday till Friday and my room should have been ready on Friday. If it would have been ready as I told them to have it, I should have never waited 3 hours for a room on Saturday. The front desk was very rude and they were not concerned with this issue. Becase of their actions we never looked at what their time share had to offer and bought one at the Mayon Palace. The reason for our trip was for investing in a timeshare in Mexico. I hate this did happen because this resort was in my top 10 most beatiful resorts. I enjoyed the all inclusive dinners, The restaurants were 5 stars. Their wait staff was wonderful. Their beaches were clean. The pools were nice. The rooms where out of a magazine. They were breathtaking. The spa services were fabulius, diffently in my top 25.

    Designed by the renowned architecture firm Elias & Elias, all of the 267 rooms and suites have ocean views, and most are large enough to accommodate a family of six. Hi-speed Internet access and cable TV with video consoles keep both business travelers and children satisfied. Spa massages are available in-room, but must be booked in advance.

    Room service is available 24 hours, and four world-class restaurants offer many options. Azul offers oceanfront dining and an international menu of Chinese, Italian, Japanese, and Mexican cuisines, along with a special spa menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Featured items include seasonal tropical fruits and frappe drinks for breakfast, (try the Nayarit citrus blend, to get a taste of locally grown fruits) grilled chicken breast stuffed with mushroom and sage, and mahi mahi served on a bed of lentils for either lunch or dinner. Hot and cold soups, salads and fresh fruit sorbets all change according to season and availability of local produce. Lucca, another restaurant option, features gourmet Italian-Mediterranean, with menu options like herb-crusted rack of lamb and marinated red snapper. Main courses include pan-fried seafood, roasted Italian zucchini, and scaloppine di vitello al marsala.

    Additional options include Frida, a fine dining Mexican restaurant, and Piaf, a traditional French restaurant with gourmet entrees such as grilled duck breast with pineapple sauce. Portion-controlled spa cuisine is offered in the restaurants and in-suite dining.
