Se Spa offers two options as amenities during its renowned hydrotherapy ceremony, and guests love the healthy treat. “Apart from being very attractive thanks to the natural edible flowers’ colors, these healthy amenities taste great. The base of one is lemonade infused with lavender essence, which provides a delicate flavor and calming, balancing and relaxing properties; another infused with bergamot essence helps reduce stress and regenerate collagen in the skin,” explains Silvia Velasco, director of Se Spa at Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit. “It is a refreshing complement to our temperature contrast ritual—a ceremony full of details for a completely renewing experience!”
