Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya by Karisma promises a fun, adults-only, all-inclusive getaway. The resort\u2019s well-appointed suites, each with a rain shower and a free-standing bathtub, all overlook the Caribbean water of the Riviera Maya. The decor reflects the many shades of turquoise, with chairs, cushions, artwork, and lighting elements tying together the nautical theme. <\/p>\n
A variety of activities are offered around the resort; guests are sure to fill their days and make friends along the way. Aqua Zumba and foam parties take place in the main pool while around the resort guests can play cornhole, volleyball, and pickleball. Once dark, guests can participate in the pickleball glow tournament, with fluorescent body paint, racquets, and balls. Live music is a nightly occurrence at the LandShark Brewery & Grill while a Mexican folk dancing performance entertains guests at The Boathouse restaurant.<\/p>\n
St. Somewhere Spa maintains a tranquil environment where guests can enjoy the hydrotherapy facilities together as a couple, or with a group of friends, before trying one of the spa’s innovatively named massages such as the Sensation Somewhere Massage or the Deep Ocean Massage. Choose from body treatment experiences such as the Citrus-Cilantro fragrant hot stone ritual, or the Mint-Chocolate Martini to quench dry skin and refresh tired feet with a mint foot mask.<\/p>\n
The Water Journey Ritual at St. Somewhere Spa is the perfect way to prepare the body before a spa treatment. Raise the body temperature in the sauna before cooling off with a contrast shower, and proceeding to the steam room. Refresh in the cold plunge pool before enjoying the variety of massage jets around the sensorial pool to stimulate the feet, legs, neck, and shoulders, and then relax on the bubble beds. Head over to the hot Jacuzzi before completing the circuit on the heated thermal loungers where an attendant applies a heated towel and eye pillow.<\/p>\n
The signature \u2018Mezcalito Mi Amor\u2019 ritual is not to be missed; the journey commences with a smoky citrus foot bath with salt and orange. The Massage incorporates Lomi Lomi, Swedish, and deep tissue techniques using an agave body oil, a traditional \u2018folk medicine\u2019 practice known to improve circulation. The ritual is completed with a scalp massage to reduce tension using a clementine oil rich in antioxidants.<\/p>\n
