2016 Noble Beach Prize Winner: Grand Velas Riviera Maya, Best Massage Nirvana

In ancient Indian religious traditions, Nirvana is known as a state of perfect quietude, freedom and highest happiness. At this Noble Beach Prize Winner, Grand Velas Riviera Maya, that’s exactly the mindset you’ll end up in after their epic massage, the Bacal Massage. But here’s the kicker. Their body artisans use an ingredient you’ve probably never experienced during a treatment: corn.

(Treatment room, Grand Velas Riviera Maya, Mexico.)

Corn was considered a sacred plant in Mayan culture. Bacal is the Mayan word for “cob.” So, the Bacal Massage is not just any run-of-the-mill spa treatment, it’s the epitome of a cultural journey. Your 80-minute melt-a-thon at the Grand Velas Riviera Maya spa begins with a soothing dry corn and honey exfoliation to detoxify your skin, and it’s applied with a corncob for a unique sensation of well-being. Your tight, tired muscles will be destressed and unsnarled. You’ll be awakened and refreshed. You’ll emerge a whole new you.

If corncobs are not your thing, rest assured that the Grand Velas Riviera Maya spa offers other delicious, soul-nourishing massages: Grape Fango Massage, Hindu Foot and Scalp Massage, Umbar Shawl Massage along with couples, detoxing, aromatherapy, Swiss, hot stone and oceans more. You can also treat yourself to the hydrothermal journey, which includes things like trips to the sauna and ice room. Hot/cold plunges, bubble beds and a dip in a warm chlorine-free pool. This treatment is complementary with the purchase of massages, facials or body rituals.

After you experience these aahsome massages at the Noble Beach Prize Winner, Grand Velas Riviera Maya spa, you might want to indulge in one of the other tantalizing offerings on their Seven World Journeys spa menu. Why not, right?
