Sanara Hotels & Spa Tulum is bringing Ayurvedic therapy right to you! Ayurvedic is an ancient teaching that originated in India as an alternative medicinal tool, and Sanara Hotels offer years of expertise and knowledge to hotel guests and visitors. Their primary therapies aim to balance doshas within our bodies to reach fulfillment and relaxation of the spirit.
On the other hand, this enchanting beach hotel also has one of the finest yoga shalas in Tulum! It is a beachfront studio that boasts a view of the beautiful Caribbean ocean. Nothing gets better than this!
ANIMAMENTE: A PROFOUND AYURVEDIC AND ENERGY WORK
Day Spa | Service: Ayurveda and Energy work massages
Highlights: A deep spiritual massages like none other
Price: Request quotation
Unlike the luxury Sanara Hotels & Spa, Animamente is a small business owned and managed by a master of Ayurveda medicine and massage, Marco. Those who have never tried energy work before may find this an exaggeration. And we understand you.
We were just like that until we finally gave in and tried it. Lo and behold, Marco’s hands worked like a magnet. They went straight into the parts of our bodies that were so tight and aching. Although the process can be more painful than your average message, the aftermath was all worth it.
Still, have your doubts about energy work? Check out TripAdvisor because they ranked number 1 in Tulum’s Spas & Wellness Center. Dare to read the stories of the 191 reviews rating 5-stars each?

LEAF LUXURY SPA: THE BEST VALUE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
Club/fitness spa | Service: Massage, facial, skin, and hydrotherapy
Highlights: Affordable and luxury hydrotherapy and offers various therapeutic services
Price: $27 USD/3hrs
The modern touch of Leaf Luxury Spa is designed to offer holistic spa therapy to harmonize the body, soul, and spirit. This happens through the Multi-Sensory water journey, which begins with the pool’s stimulating jets that slowly release our body’s tension. Then, enter reflexology pebbles while enjoying a range of shower experiences to your liking. Afterward, the steamy sauna room invites you with its eucalyptus-scented steam room and a hot jacuzzi by the cold plunge. At last, relax outdoors and take in the fresh air by the lounge chairs to extend your relaxation.
Note: Unlike the spa site at the hotel zone, here you have plenty of free parking throughout the property (but be aware of the bumpy road). Another perk that we heard is if you are an Airbnb guest of a particular hotel, you have free access to the property. We aren’t 100% sure, but it’s worth asking.

OUR FINAL THOUGHTS ABOUT TULUM SPAS
With all Tulum’s knowledge and spa experience, we say it’s worth visiting once every month or two.

Especially if you are a busy digital nomad who sits on chairs most of the day will definitely need a few hours at the spa just to relieve the tension. In short, relishing the spa for a few hours revitalizes the body to get back to working at full strength!
