The Palmyra ESPA

The Palmyra boasts the added luxury of Jamaica's first destination spa, designed under the guidance of global spa guru Susan Harmsworth, CEO and Founder of global spa company ESPA.
ESPA comprises of 14 treatment rooms, 3 private suites, aromatic Caldarium and Laconium steam rooms, portico covered vitality pools with ocean views, lifestyle showers and ice fountains areas for the ultimate in relaxation.
Organized around a beautiful garden courtyard with private outdoor areas for treatment and relaxation, it's modern, island style simplicity reflects the rich architectural heritage of Jamaica with deep, eaved verandahs, grand staircases, jalousied windows and doors and warm stone walls. Much of the guest's experience in this two-level spa will take place outdoors on the many terraces, water gardens and connected courtyards.
"Our concept for The Palmyra ESPA is to merge the spa's natural setting and beautiful architecture with our natural healing and relaxation practices, providing our guests with an unforgettable experience as they move from being into wellbeing," said Laura Boss, ESPA project manager.
ESPA is many things - it is not dominated by one single element but is a fusion of many. Deep within ESPA's philosophy is the determination to combine the best of ancient and modern therapies with the finest quality ingredients and skin care advances.
The result is an unusual combination of Spa inspired products, treatments and services that harness the best of aromatherapy, hydrotherapy, thalassotherapy, and phytotherapy. Absorbing these elements the ESPA philosophy is focused upon enhancing an individual's lifestyle in a way that is both holistic and versatile. Above all our commitment is to products and treatments that really work.
