Amidst enchanting pathways through lush hidden gardens you will find yourself transported to a bygone place and time. Within the sanctuary of our private retreat, lose yourself to an uncommon luxury rarely experienced - Alvadora Spa at Royal Palms. Years ago, Delos Cooke, original owner of Royal Palms Resort and Spa, embarked on a quest to discover the magic of the Mediterranean. Now, celebrating the revitalizing benefits of the herbs, flowers, oils and minerals indigenous to the region, Alvadora inspires your own journey of self-discovery.

Distinguished by Mediterranean ambiance, the two-level open air spa features 10 treatment areas with definitive European influences. Alvadora blends the indoors and outdoors in a unique non-clinical environment. Each area within the spa conveys a different experience and the design elements and service convey these stories. Special features at Alvadora include:

• A selection of exotic, globally inspired signature treatments and products indigenous to the Mediterranean
• Distinctive treatment rooms with private gardens
• Signature Acqua Dolce Villa with two heated stone tables under custom overhead showers
• A Watsu pool with an 8-foot grotto waterfall shower in a private garden terrace
• Full-service salon
• A complete 24-hour fitness center (class activities and personal training available)
