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.

Rooms & Dining
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.
