The newly opened Bristol Buenaventura, located directly on the pristine beaches of Panama in an exclusive gated resort community, is pleased to announce the debut of its new Corotú Spa on December 18, 2009. The nearly 8,000-square foot facility features five tranquil treatment rooms, a lounging and relaxation area, sauna, steam room, deluge shower and state-of-the-art fitness room. The new spa sanctuary will allow guests to indulge in a number of holistic treatments, with a focus on utilizing natural and indigenous Panamanian ingredients, such as volcanic sand, honey, palm fruit (Pixbae) and other seasonal fruits, specifically designed to ease the body after a day of outdoor activities or fun in the sun.
Signature treatments at the new spa include the 90-minute Magnetism body polish, which begins with an energizing and exfoliating rub using Buenaventura’s iron-rich volcanic sand, followed by a mineral clay application to revive the skin and ending with a hydrating cream and facial massage using semi-precious gems. Other signature treatments include the 90-minute Pixbae Wrap using palm fruit and banana leaves, the Buenaventura Body massage and the 45-minute Coclé Facial, which utilizes ingredients such as coffee, native herbs, honey and seasonal fruits to clean, tone, relax and moisturize the skin.
The complete spa menu offers a unique selection of massages, wraps, facials and salon services at a wide range of prices, as well as a full line of treatments tailored specifically for men. With a spa philosophy committed to relaxation, health, beauty and wellness, the new Corotú Spa reflects a well-balanced blend of traditional techniques, ancient philosophy and modern technologies, making it an ideal retreat after a long day.
Corotú Spa is open every day from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Reservations can be made through the spa concierge by calling + (507) 908 3333 or via email at spaconcierge@thebristol.com. For more information, please visit the Web site at http://www.thebristol.com/buenaventura/.
