Condé Nast Traveler international magazine
as one of the 50 best Spas in North America
and the Caribbean.

“The real secret of this outcome is the
environment of serenity, the small details
and the genuine care that our men and
women dedicate to our guests. Our mission
is not to provide treatments but to create a
remarkable Spa experience for each guest,”
commented Simona Dumitru, the manager
of the Spa. “In every detail – amenities,
design, procedures – our guests can
experience the reality that our objective is
their complete well being.”
Inspired by the Mayan phrase “ka´a
yaan´tah”- which means “rebirth,” Kayantá
Spa in the Cancun Ritz-Carlton is a luxurious
refuge, which offers complete renewal and
relaxation.
Services offered by the Spa include water rituals, massages, body treatments and facials inspired
by the world’s ancient cultures that are administered in an atmosphere of warmth. The Valet
service assures that the guests’ experience of the rooms and other facilities is as relaxing as
the treatments themselves.
Guests enjoy luxury cabins for treatments that include two Swiss Vichy high-pressure showers
and a suite designed for couples to enjoy massages. Sections for men and women include a
herbal steam room, pressure showers and generous facilities with programmable safety deposit
boxes. Relaxation areas offer Jacuzzis and cold-water pools.
The Spa also offers private terraces for treatments and hydro massage
baths with Caribbean Sea views. Guests can also experience a
massage against the background of the sounds of the sea under a
private palm frond cabana, in the Spa’s gardens or on the beach.
The treatments offered reflect the richness of the history and mysticism
of the world of the Mayas. Lol-Ha, is a traditional Mayan bridal bath,
which leaves both skin and spirit relaxed and glowing, and includes
plant extracts, relaxing crystals and flower petals. The Zac-Xib treatment
for men includes a vigorous exfoliation with balneotherapy, using
essential plant oils.
The Sacred Massage with hot stones is a tribute
to the importance of stones in Pre-Hispanic cultural rituals.
The Spa is complemented by a wide variety of health facilities,
including two open air pools, three tennis courts, a gymnasium with
modern cardiovascular equipment and weights, steam room, sauna,
aerobic studio and personal training facilities.
Typical treatments at the Kayantá Spa reflect the rich history of
ancient Mayan tradition complemented by the legendary Ritz-Carlton
service.
