Tune in to total wellbeing

A day spent at the spa is not just about pampering or treating oneself anymore – it’s also about achieving much-needed total wellbeing. Water circuits have an amazing effect on our cardiovascular systems, massages improve regular circulation and attend to tired and painful muscles, and without even realizing this, by unplugging from technology even for just a short period, it puts our minds in a state of relaxing bliss while experiencing mindfulness and wellbeing in itself. Not to mention all the beautifying treatments that get us looking and feeling in tip-top shape! Cue in Open Spa, the modern-day healing and wellness centre and spa set within the luxurious Ibiza Gran Hotel (the only hotel in Ibiza with a ‘Grand Luxe’ rating!) in the exclusive Marina Botafoch area. With a philosophy deeply rooted in the total wellbeing of mind, body and soul, the highly trained team of professionals and therapists are on hand to offer an array of health and wellbeing treatments, packages and rituals tailored to suit anyone’s needs.

Plunge into the waters of Open Aqua and experience the healing powers and the main role that water has in our lives. As you move through the therapeutic circuit, you’ll experience a vast amount of different water therapies; from a crosscurrents pool, to frigidly cold (it’s ok – it’s good for you!) to warm, salty waters. Warm Balinese beds and hot pools and saunas are also in the mix as this circuit adds a modern twist on the ancient restorative water practices that are known to relax, detoxify and replenish.
