Fodor's Expert Review Sense, a Rosewood Spa

Wooden walkways traverse the jungle-covered island that is the setting for Rosewood's 17,000-square-foot spa, where you'll find a swimming pool as well as a limestone cenote fed by subterranean springs. The Maya tradition of harmonizing the energy of the body is evident in treatments such as the temazcal ritual and the "fire and ice" therapy. The gourmet sugar body scrub and antiaging facial are both heavenly. Nonguest visitors can book a treatment, then enjoy the spa facilities, including the gym, sauna, whirlpool tub, plunge pool, and the eucalyptus steam room for free.
