Every successful vacation should reset our mind, body, and spirit. Often, this may come in the form of a really great spa treatment that could be the icing to the cake of an already spectacular trip. Luckily in Belize, you don’t have to look far for world-class spa experiences bound to be the highlight of your stay. When planning to ride the recent wave of wellness travel, venture to these Belize resorts for the best holistic spa treatments. 

Naia Resort & Spa.

The Placencia gem continues to be sought after for its luxe spa amenities contained within its five individual treatment suites. The personal escapes are perched over lily-covered lagoons, providing an enchanting ambiance to already top-notch service. Offering more than your run-of-the-mill massages, Naia’s spa includes facials, body wraps, scrubs as well as beauty service. The locally-made beauty products have been enjoyed by travelers and celebrities alike. Open up all your senses to the nature surrounding you once you begin your canopy-lined walk to the suite and feel the shift within body and mind.

Victoria House Resort & Spa.

Ambergris Caye’s Victoria House is award-winning for multiple reasons, one of them being its stunning beachfront spa. Spanning 3,500 square feet, the spa is said to be the largest of its kind on the island. You can find it nestled within coconut palms and vibrant bougainvillea, adding an effortless inspirational setting to pamper your body. The 36 body treatments aren’t the only reasons to book a service as fast as you can. The place itself boasts 11-foot high ceilings, gaping windows, and hardwood floors. If you prefer to shirk these stunning amenities for something more private, Victoria House can bring the spa to you. Whether that’s at your house, office, or at a venue of your choice.

Sirenian Bay Resort & Villas.

Indulge at The Siren’s Spa, the onsite services at Sirenian Bay Resort & Villas.

You’ll be thanking Sirenian Bay’s wizard massage therapists for the rest of your stay after indulging in their skilled massages. The Placencia resort’s Siren’s Spa faces the beach, though you can enjoy some of the best treatments from your villa or bungalow at this Southern Belize resort. Their signature treatments are such a hit they even made it onto Access Hollywood! One of them is the cacao wrap treatment where you get the cacao swathed all over your body before being wrapped in banana leaves, plastic, and a blanket. Warning: you may smell like delicious chocolate for a little while after. For something more traditional, get your kinks ironed out with a massage, or opt for a waxing session to look and feel your best.

Alaia Belize

It makes sense the ultra-luxe Alaia would also have a spa rivaling those in Bali or Maldives. The Ambergris Caye hotel’s K’in Spa and Wellness Center aims for transcendental experiences travelers won’t even know they needed. Its state-of-the-art facility offers body therapy, skin therapy, and the essential mani-pedis that allows you to be at your most relaxed self. Book a romantic couple’s massage for the ultimate honeymoon splurge; although, solo treatments beckon you to treat yourself to a well-deserved Balancing Facial that uses quality detoxifying products. By the time you leave the spa, you’ll feel rejuvenated enough to complete the rest of your adventure-filled trip with ease.

Blancaneaux Lodge.

Blancaneaux’s Waterfall Spa may not be beachfront like the others, but it still offers stunning views of the gushing Privassion Creek in the Mountain Pine Ridge area. Its variety of treatments was curated by owner high-profile owner Francis Ford Coppola. The Waterfall Spa specializes in Thai massage and the filmmaker himself hand-selected the massage therapists all the way from Thailand. The professionally trained staff uses ancient techniques studied at the Sacred Wat Pho Temple in Bangkok.

The heated ‘horseshoe’ pool at Blancaneaux Lodge sits next to the Spa, while overlooking the Privassion.

Apart from the skilled therapists, the spa features a heated pool powered by hydroelectricity. Enjoy the natural light when getting an authentic Thai massage at this eco-luxurious facility. After all, you’re getting the ultimate (and best) spa treatment in this corner of Belize’s pine forest.
