Banyan Tree Mayakoba, located in the vibrant Riviera Maya and just 40 minutes’ drive from Cancun International Airport, is home to the award-winning Banyan Tree Spa set in a perfect synthesis of modern Asian and Mexican tropical design.
Banyan Tree Spa brings its award-winning blend of Asian therapies, featuring massages and body treatments inspired by traditional Asian healing disciplines, to the Americas for the very first time. In another first, Banyan Tree Spa introduces The Rainforest concept at Banyan Tree Spa Mayakoba. The Rainforest presents a complete hydrothermal experience combining the best of European spa and hydrothermal therapy with the essence of Asian wellness philosophy to create a romantic haven of serenity, warmth and comfort.
The theme of luxurious romance and intimacy is the key inspiration behind the concept of The Rainforest. As a pioneer of the tropical garden spa concept with its Eastern therapies and holistic focus on spiritual, mental and physical harmony, Banyan Tree Spa introduces The Rainforest to heighten the indulgence quotient. First launched in the internationally lauded Banyan Tree Spa Al Areen in Bahrain, The Rainforest offers interplay of unique wellness and romance concepts through a series of innovative hydrothermal facilities and treatments.
The Rainforest Experience
Set to add a new dimension to Banyan Tree Spa’s interpretation of holistic rejuvenation, The Rainforest features eight different hydrothermal therapy experiences for guests to embark on a trail of wellness treats. The Rainforest is designed as a hydrothermal circuit, comprising alternating hot and cold thermal cabins with each thermal cabin designed to accommodate up to one couple at each time, preserving exclusive privacy. Couples can share the experiences together in each cabin guided by a personal therapist or enjoy the moments at their own privacy.
To re-create a rainforest effect within The Rainforest Trail, the state-of-the-art hydrothermal circuit is set against a backdrop of earthy tones and offers unique hydrothermal therapy experiences like Rain Walk, Aroma Steam Chamber, Herbal Sauna, Rasul, Brine Cavern, Ice Fountain, Experience Showers and Vitality Pool.
