The St. Regis Spa Kanai

A sanctuary in a teeming mangrove
VERIFIED LUXURY

Tucked into a corner of The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya just off the lobby, The St. Regis Spa Kanai provides a nature haven. The wood-and-stone-filled facility with eight treatment rooms brings the outdoors in with oversized windows that overlook the landscape. But the spa also encourages you to go outside with its large pool hanging over the mangroves, where you can linger in the lounge-style daybeds amid the lush local vegetation.

Like the rest of the resort, the spa gleans inspiration from ancient Mayan astronomy. Upon check-in, select an essence of choice that mirrors the celestial theme utilized in the resort's architecture. Each essence alludes to the stages of the moon. Mayan cultural elements are incorporated within the wellness menu, too, alongside the traditional massages, facials, body treatments and beauty prep.
