Ritual Relaxation
De-stressing begins long before you even start your treatment at the new Willow Stream Spa at the spectacular Fairmont Acapulco Princess hotel. A luxurious pre-spa ritual includes a relaxing whirlpool, sauna, steam room, foot massage, and herbal tea which turns you into butter before you melt into the signature Nahuatl Barro Body Wrap. In this treatment detoxifying local mud is mixed with mandarin orange, just as it was done in pre-Colombian cultures of Mexico, and is followed by a massage with lavender essential oil. Afterwards relax in the vaulted thatched-roof lounge encircled by a stream, palm trees, and waterfalls. Of course, just strolling through the peaceful, botanic-like grounds of the fabulous Fairmont Acapulco Princess is rejuvenating all by itself.
