Join us for a unique opportunity to design your own Wellness Getaway at the incredibly beautiful, luxury oceanfront Palmaia: House of Aia Resort in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. "Aia" refers to our connection to nature. This is Mexico’s premiere, all inclusive, award-winning, progressive wellness and spa resort.
Also, Palmaia recently received two prestigious awards:
- Michelin Two Keys
- The Atlantic Spa has been ranked No. 3 on Conde Nast Traveler's Best Destination Spa in the World

What’s included?
- Accommodations - luxury, oceanfront suites (over 500 sqft) with breathtaking sunrise views from your balcony. Choose between one king bed or two queens. For an extra fee, you can opt for a swim out suite or room with a bathtub. Six night minimum.
- Meals - Three mostly plant-based meals/day with a selection of 5 restaurants (and a poolside food truck) offering top notch cuisines of different cultures. The food is some of the best we’ve ever experienced and Palmaia has created a level of cuisine that is hard to match. You do not have to eat plant-based as all the restaurants have options such as eggs, fish and meat. Alcoholic beverages are also included. Check out these restaurants:
