There’s a new-look spa at Marriott’s signature Autograph Collection resort in Belize: Alaia, which has unveiled an expanded wellness destination at its Ambergris Caye retreat. 

The K’In Spa and Wellness Center has completed what Alaia is calling a “significant renovation and expansion, according to the resort. 

So what does that mean?

Guests at Alaia now have access to a 2,070-square-foot wellness destination, with a new trio of treatment rooms, a new sauna, a boutique and a high-tech fitness center. 

That’s along with what Alaia says is a “refreshed design aesthetic.”

In all, the spa has six treatment rooms, with capacity for both single treatments and couples’ treatments, and a menu of everything from massages to body wraps and nail services. 

Alaia is the only Marriott-portfolio resort in Belize, with a location just south of Ambergris Caye’s bustling San Pedro Town.
