From the moment I walked in I was pampered by warm, welcoming and friendly staff. The ultimate of indulgences these ladies have magic hands. The treatments were outstanding but the pampering didn’t stop with the massage or facial. A warm herbal tea by a crystal clear wading pool overseeing the pristine Palm Cove beach - please! This is one experience no one should be denied.

This was an amazing experience! We booked a package called the Mala Mayi, and was happily surprised at the experience. We had no idea what this would be and let me tell you, it was amazing! Exfoliate, mud wrap, rain bath...followed by a great massage and you are reinvigorated and ready for the next adventure! We had Malena and Jane who were terrific and walked us through the process enjoying every relaxing minute with great teas and their expertise. So glad we had the opportunity to do this! Thank you Jane and Malena for making my friends birthday the best one ever!!
