Spa Philosophy
Vida Mia is a world class destination spa perched on a high vibrational crystal mountain that was created to serve all healing modalities that begin in nature. With our innovative and organic remedies fused with the wisdom of ancient therapies and the metaphysical powers of the four elements, earth, water, air and fire, we have connected health, beauty, relaxation, and healing. We focus on genuine therapeutic treatments and hands on experiences to connect, nurture, protect and heal the Mind-body health systems.
Facilities
The Meditation Deck right below the ‘Monkey tree” is a wonderful place to reflect, chant, pray, or be one with nature.
There are poolside lounges where food and drink can be served. Lightly swing on the in-pool hanging chairs; take in the beauty of the surroundings while dipping your toes in the natural saltwater.
The second level holds the changing rooms, an air-conditioned fitness facility, a covered Jacuzzi, and cold-water cascade plus an outdoor covered resting den.
All treatment rooms have open air or large windows to connect the guests with the natural surroundings, to the bring the outside into their treatments and to connect them with the healing elements. Each room is named for different indigenous healing crystals.
