BANYAN TREE MAYAKOBA | HOLIDAY SEASON GUIDE 2017

SENSE OF WELLNESS Make this festive season the most relaxing ever at the award-winning Banyan Tree Spa. Forget the present-buying stress and unwind with the many treatments – from the Thai Classic to Yoga lessons – and allow you to rejuvenate over the yuletide period.

BANYAN TREE SPA ACADEMY

Founded in Phuket in 2001, the Banyan Tree Spa Academy provides dedicated training to all therapists, who are personally handpicked from Thai provinces, to ensure they consistently deliver the highest quality treatments offered in the world. Each undergoes hundreds of hours of theoretical and practical training, with special emphasis devoted to our spa’s unparalleled service philosophy.

THE RAINFOREST EXPERIENCE

Surrender your senses to a new dimension of holistic rejuvenation. Enter a journey through a cascading Rain Walk. Calm your spirit in the Aroma Steam Chamber. Detox in the luxury of the Hamam pool. Immerse yourself in stimulating experience showers. Relax in the warm Sauna then cool off with a brisk rubdown from the Ice Fountain, followed by restorative acupressure jets in the Vitality Pool and Waterfall.

Combine fun in the sun with soothing spa treatments, where physical and spiritual renewal begins the moment you step through the door.

BANYAN TREE MAYAKOBA | HOLIDAY SEASON GUIDE 2017

One of the most important parts of our everyday wellbeing is the ingredients we put on our skin, which is the largest organ in our body. Our shower gels, shampoos, conditioners, lotions and massage oils used in our resorts and spas are created with the combined expertise of our 20-year-old award winning Spa Academy and strategic laboratory partner in Thailand.

We travel the globe to bring the best of nature home, researching the benefits of indigenous flowers, herbs and spices and combining them in a final formula that is both good for the earth, and for you.

BANYAN TREE ESSENTIALS Our basics to bring the best of nature home Delight yourself and your loved ones with these carefully curated home spa essentials from the Banyan Tree Gallery.

Banyan Tree began its journey by building retreats of rest and rejuvenation, championing the ethos of embracing the environment and empowering the community. Every destination is designed with an intention to enhance your well-being, to extend the experience of comfort and stillness into your daily life. We strive to inspire a lifestyle of wellness, and that has served as our motivation behind our bath & body and aromatherapy collections - to bring an oasis of calm wherever you are.

The beauty of craft lies in the stories it holds, and that has been the motivation behind the production of our handmade ceramic collections, to empower the communities and to champion the heritage and traditions of artisanal craft to the rest of the world.

Made by hand, crafted with heart

SENSE OF FLAVOR

Executive Chef

BANYAN TREE MAYAKOBA CHEFS

With 23 years of experience, our newly appointed Executive Chef, Alfonso de la Dehesa, along with his incredible team, beautifully developed all the culinary delights launching this Holiday Season.

Born and raised in Madrid, Spain, he had a successful start in his hometown at the prestigious Arzak Restaurant and then at Bulli Restaurant in Girona, Spain, both awarded with 3 Michelin stars.

Two years later, he started a new adventure at Madinat Jumeirah Hotel in Dubai. But he knew back then Mexico was his second home, so he decided to join Four Seasons Punta Mita team, where he met his wife!

More recently he has worked at Banyan Tree Hotels & Resorts, first Cabo Marqués in Acapulco and then Phuket in Thailand. He now brings his contemporary cuisine back to Mexico for our guests to enjoy.

RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES During your stay, there are tons of fun and exciting activities! The recreation team features a variety of nonmotorized equipment (complimentary), located next to Sands Beach Club. Enjoy the beauty of the ocean kayaking, paddle boarding, and much more.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY We firmly support eco vacations, that is why we share these initiatives for your stay: Reduction: Be part of the efforts against global warming.

Reduce power consumption by turning off the lights, Air Conditioner and electronic devices when not in use, limit the use of disposable items, avoid using straws, and ride the bicycles that come with your villa.

Greening communities together: In 2007, Banyan Tree launched this program to raise awareness for climate change by planting 2,000 trees per year. The main goal of this reforestation campaign is the engagement of communities, associates, and guests to share this cause and how to reduce our collective footprints.

There is a lot more you can do, contact your experience concierge to know about the activities during your stay.

These Holidays you can share a common purpose to turn this world into a better place, with small actions that make a big impact.

I'm a storyteller; that's what exploration really is all about.

Going to places where others haven't been and returning to tell a story they haven't heard before.
