Formerly known as Willow Stream Spa, the newly rebranded Fairmont Spa, which has emerged from an extensive renovation, invites guests to embark on a transformative journey that transcends conventional notions of relaxation.

Nestled within the lush landscapes of Mayakoba, the Fairmont Spa is a celebration of holistic well-being. Drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of Mayan culture, the spa’s design reflects a harmonious blend of natural elements and modern aesthetics. Expansive windows bathe the space in soft natural light, illuminating tranquil indoor gardens and setting the stage for an immersive and rejuvenating experience.

At the heart of the Fairmont Spa experience are the Signature Moon-Based Experiences, each uniquely tailored to harness the energy of the lunar cycle. Whether indulging in the New Moon’s foot and hand massage with earth-based ingredients or the Waxing Moon’s full-body massage incorporating Mayan shawls and the warmth of wax and candles, guests are transported to a realm of profound tranquility.

Complementing these lunar-inspired treatments are Classic and Specialty Facials that utilise natural extracts and earth- and sea-sourced ingredients. The spa’s commitment to sustainability is evident not just in its treatments but in every aspect, from eco-friendly sourced ingredients to locally crafted staff uniforms.

Beyond individualised treatments, the Fairmont Spa offers an array of experiences, including couples treatments, holistic experiences, and quartz sand experiences that infuse the body with the earth’s energy. Physical wellness experiences, featuring classes like mobility flow and yoga, cater to those seeking a more active approach to meditation.

Guests are not only invited to rejuvenate their bodies but to connect mind and spirit through Mayan ceremonies and Spiritual Wellness Experiences. New to the spa is the ancient tradition of the temazcal. This prehispanic sweat lodge, crafted from stones, provides a unique spiritual and physical journey. Guided by a skilled temazcalero, each ceremony is a personalized, 60-minute exploration within the intimate space heated by volcanic stones, over which a cold infusion of herbs is poured by candlelight. Chants create an atmosphere conducive to a trance-like state, as guests are enveloped in incense or mud. The temazcal’s shape, reminiscent of a mother’s womb, ensures a retreat from external discomforts, offering participants a profound experience of introspection and a symbolic rebirth.
