Mexican resort adds new spa


The Barcelo Maya Beach Resort in Mexico has opened a new spa facility at the all-inclusive resort complex that includes the Barcelo Maya Tropical and Colonial Beach Hotels. The twist here: Mayan-influenced architecture and European-style spa services.

The spa is located in a garden area of the resort. It includes a Mayan Temazal lodge, which it describes as "a traditional Indian sweat lodge," along with eight outdoor cabins for tropical massages, and such services such as facials, manicures, pedicures and hairstyling.

Adjacent to the spa is an expanded fitness center with exercies equipment as well as state of the art weight and fitness rooms.

The Barcelo Maya Beach Resort encompasses more than a mile of Caribbean beach protected by a natural coral reef and is surrounded by a nature park. It is less than 50 miles from the Cancun International Airport and is close to the Mayan ruins of Tulum.

The resort is comprised of four all-inclusive hotels that collectively offer nearly 2,000 guestrooms, 14 restaurants, and 10 bars as well as a variety of swimming pools, a children's water park, shopping galleries and two night clubs that feature live orchestras, nightly entertainment and dancing.

Barcelo Hotels and Resorts, established in 1931 in Spain, has a growing presence in Latin America with 32 hotels and more than 10,000 guestrooms in Latin America and the Caribbean.
