Spa Rosa: The Heart of Our Oasis

When we were designing the first-ever Tommy Bahama resort, we obsessed over every detail. When it came to Spa Rosa, our oasis within an oasis, our mission was clear: Spa Rosa would have to surpass every expectation even before the first guest walked through the door. We left no stone unturned as we crafted an experience that would feel naturally luxurious and personal for each and every guest. We chatted with our Spa Director, Cristina, to give you a peek behind the stone facade before you book your first treatment.

HI, CRISTINA! YOU’RE THE GUIDING HAND BEHIND SO MUCH OF WHAT MAKES SPA ROSA MAGICAL—CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

I get to help people celebrate some of their happiest moments in life—wedding anniversaries and special occasions—but I also get to work with those who are really in need of self care. Spa Rosa is a place where people come to honor and ground themselves. Guests come to us to help them heal, and it’s amazing to be able to create the space for them to do that.

WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND FOR SOMEONE LOOKING FOR THAT FULL REJEUVENATION EXPERIENCE?

Some of the most memorable treatments are ones that touch you from head to toe. We have a Himalayan Body Peel and Wrap that does just that - incorporating a facial and mask, body exfoliation, a body wrap—every little decadent detail you can think of. Every inch of you will feel renewed and cared for. Also, make a day of it! You’ll have access to our steam room, private pool & hot tub, and lounge areas, so you can have a full day of total relaxation.

YOU MENTIONED ANNIVERSARIES—ANY FAVORITE TREATMENTS FOR COUPLES?

Yes! Our Surrender to Sound Healing experience is unforgettable. After a private, side-by-side massage for two, our sound therapist will come into the room and set up her instruments under the massage table to create this truly unique experience. You’re going to feel like you’re floating, since you’ll be feeling the sound vibrations from beneath you. Of course, sound bathing is not reserved for couples—we’ve also added a Relaxing Sound Bath wellness class that I would recommend for any curious guest. You can get to a place where you’re beyond rest and at total peace. So deep in a state you didn’t know you could get to.

IT WOULDN’T BE PARADISE WITHOUT MASSAGE! WHAT ELSE MAKES A DAY AT SPA ROSA UNIQUE?

Your experience here is deeply connected to our location and the natural bounty around us. We pick citrus from the citrus groves on property and herbs from the chef’s garden and diffuse them in-house to make our own essential oils for massage. We also offer our guests a stone of intention before their treatment. We feel this helps set the tone for their treatment and allows them to more easily access a state of total relaxation.

ANY PARTING THOUGHTS FOR THOSE DREAMING ABOUT A GETAWAY TO THE MIRAMONTE RESORT AND SPA?

I want people to know how essential it is to tend to yourself and prioritize your wellbeing. Even if you’re not able to spend a full day at the spa, incorporating a treatment into your stay can make your experience so much richer.
