ZoiA Spa
ZoiA is a new spa concept that was introduced to the island in 2012. In Aruba ‘zoia’ means to rock, swing or balance oneself; and this is what the Spa aims to accomplish with its range of botanical treatments, specifically designed to aid balance and well being. The spa’s design incorporates sustainable products and materials throughout the entire space, including cork and qurt (a granite like stone made from sea shells) and treatment rooms offer indoor and outdoor experiences.
Larimar Spa
Whether it’s under a beach-side cabana or in one of its treatment rooms, Larimar spa certainly knows how to pamper its guests. The spa’s signature treatment is the Aloe Vera and Rum massage, but you’ll find that all the spa’s treatments are inspired by natural, aromatic and indigenous ingredients, evoking a true feeling of this Caribbean island.
Spa del Sol
Aruba has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and Spa del Sol has taken full advantage of this with its location. Several breezy gazebos lie right on the beach front, overlooking the white sands and turquoise waters of Eagle Beach. These gazebos are used for massages, manicures and pedicures, while inside there are special treatment rooms for facials and body treatments, as well as a steam room and whirl pool.
