The 10 best spas in the Caribbean for ultra-luxury wellness

1. Jumby Bay Spa – Jumby Bay Island, Antigua

Time has not so much stood still as lost all meaning on this 300-acre private island where guests are encouraged to leave their busy lives behind the moment they step ashore and get back to basics.

There are no cars, so guests get around on complimentary bikes or golf carts, adding to the sense of playfulness of this island, but it’s in the uplifting spa where balance is fully restored.

Guests in this garden oasis can partake in botanical rituals using local herbs and island-grown plants in the open-air treatment cottages, or slip into the sea-view plunge pools and allow the turquoise seascapes to soothe them.

For a relaxing stop on your Leeward Islands yacht charter itinerary, ask your captain to anchor offshore, with easy tender transfers straight to the island’s jetty.

2. COMO Shambhala Retreat – Parrot Cay, Turks & Caicos

The award-winning holistic therapies at this calming Caribbean retreat are rooted in Asian traditions with a focus on spiritual enlightenment that goes beyond simple pampering.

An aura of barefoot luxury pervades at this island Utopia which brings a Bali-inspired style of holistic healing to the crystal-clear shores of the Caribbean.

Charter guests can moor off Parrot Cay for seamless yacht access and once here they can stretch their tanned limbs on carefully dangled hammocks before taking a transformative journey in one of the light-filled yoga pavilions.

Signature COMO Shambhala treatments include deep-tissue and Ayurvedic therapies, the wellness menus and yoga sessions will leave you feeling reborn and personal butler service leaves you wanting for nothing.

3. The Spa at Sandy Lane – Barbados

Quite possibly the Caribbean’s most iconic luxury spa and certainly one of the best spas in the Caribbean, Sandy Lane is like a temple to wellness and conveniently located close to Barbados’s best marinas and finest restaurants.

Here within its lavishly decorated walls, you can be transported to a world of heightened wellbeing, where nothing is too much trouble for its esteemed team of therapists and where you can surrender to a menu of pure decadence.

Covering an enormous 47,000 square foot and encompassing marble treatment rooms, an incredible marble staircase and a full-equipped fitness facility, it’s the perfect place to press reset on an indulgent Barbados yacht charter or a charter hopping escape between some of the dreamiest quiet Caribbean islands.

4. Sundara Spa and Studio at Oil Nut Bay – Virgin Gorda, BVI

Remote and contemporary, the eco-luxury ethos on the private peninsula on the north of Virgin Gorda is utterly rejuvenating and a fantastic addition to any BVI yacht charter.

Ask your captain to plot a course for the spa’s dedicated marina and allow yourself a few hours of indulgence in one of the overwater massage pavilions with panoramic bay views.

With integrative healing therapies and marine-inspired treatments that utilise the healing properties of the sea, the Sundra Spa and Studio at Oil Nut Bay feels like a natural extension to your superyacht charter holiday.

Try the Seaweed Leaf Wrap for an instant detox very much in keeping with the setting while the Voyager Massage Journey will pamper you from head to toe.

5. The Rainforest Spa at Sugar Beach, A Viceroy Resort – St. Lucia

While many Caribbean spas make the most of the stunning coastal settings, others – like this one – take advantage of the Caribbean’s lush interiors for the ultimate forest-bathing escape. 

The tree-house–style treatment pavilions of this sanctuary at Sugar Beach, set deep within the rainforest surrounding the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Pitons, is surely one of the most pacifying spa settings in the Caribbean.

Guests that reach this jungle hideaway can look forward to high-end treatments that call upon some of St Lucia’s natural wonders, from volcanic mud to cacao, bamboo, and other island botanicals.

With private access by tender, this is a smart stop on any St Lucia and Windward islands yacht charter itinerary.

6. Cap Juluca Spa by Guerlain – Anguilla

For Parisian refinement that meets powder-soft beaches, this Belmond spa on the southwest of the island of Anguilla – overlooking what many consider to be the Caribbean’s most beautiful beach – is peak splendour.

As one might expect from the refined luxury brand, treatments at this spa (which only opened in 2025) are tailored with haute-cosmetic precision, accompanied by ocean breezes and a mood of minimalist, sculptural calm.

Guests can enjoy exclusive Guerlain facial rituals, anti-ageing therapies, and bespoke body treatments, all delivered within a serene whitewashed, Moroccan-inspired haven. Perhaps the most meaningful part of proceedings here though is the Arawak Fountain Ritual in which guests write their name on a leaf and offer it up to the sacred fountain that has long provided islanders with water.

For effortless arrival, your captain can moor off Maundays Bay allowing you to tender directly to the resort’s pristine shoreline.

7. The Spa at Silversands – Grenada

A study in contemporary design and island purity, Silversands offers immersive wellness infused by Grenada’s famed spices and volcanic elements.

Surrender to Caribbean cacao rituals and volcanic stone therapies featuring Grenadian nutmeg and other natural ingredients for an island-specific approach to wellness and a total reset.

Guests can bliss out in the modern hydrotherapy suite and relax poolside – the resort boasts the longest pool in the Caribbean – between grounding treatments that include a chocolate body wrap and psammotherapy: an ancient Egyptian practice that uses hot sand to improve circulation.

With superyacht berths at Port Louis Marina and lots of quiet bays suitable for anchoring, this Grenada spa is perfect for a wellbeing check-in on a Windward Islands yacht charter.

8. Spa Sisley at Hotel Christopher – St. Barths

Poised above the sea on a quiet St. Jean peninsula, Spa Sisley brings the renowned French skincare house to the refined shores of St. Barths.

As a magnet for luxury travellers and superyacht charters, St Barths is a fashionable and lively island but this spa offers a little respite from the social scene on days when you need a little ‘me time’.

With outdoor treatment decks framed by endless water views, bespoke skincare regimes are in keeping with the island’s understated glamour.

Try Sisley phyto-aromatic facials, anti-ageing rituals, and lymphatic detox therapies before switching off on one of the spa’s cliff-edge cabanas where you can enjoy luminous sea views, lulled by an ocean soundscape.

9. Eden Roc Spa by Natura Bisse – Dominican Republic

Set within Cap Cana’s palm-fringed enclave, this spa blends Mediterranean luxury with Caribbean warmth.

Book a Natura Bissé diamond facial, a collagen ritual or an advanced skin regeneration therapy and you’ll look like you’re ageing backwards. Golf fans can even enjoy a massage using gold balls before enjoying a few rounds on the resort’s 18-hole championship course.

There’s a secluded ambiance to this spa, with the water gardens and domed relaxation areas providing the calm and privacy you seek, yet despite this it’s situated very close to Cap Cana Marina — one of the region’s premier superyacht harbours.

10. The Spa at Mandarin Oriental – Canouan

A refined Bali-inspired seaside sanctuary set in the heart of the Grenadines, at this outpost of the Mandarin Oriental you can expect the resort’s trademark approach to wellbeing as well as super-sophisticated interiors.

A prime stopover for yachts cruising between Mustique and Tobago Cays, once ashore, guests will receive a thorough assessment by its Balinese therapists before succumbing to the slow rhythm of this retreat, which is easily one of the best luxury spas in the Caribbean. 

The hillside palazzos overlooking reef-protected bays offer the best treatment rooms, while the Essence of Canouan Caribbean Cooling Bliss is the ultimate tropical treatment, soothing and rejuvenating sun-kissed skin and leaving you feeling fully hydrated and refreshed.

With a dedicated superyacht marina now on Canouan, getting to this Caribbean sanctuary is now a breeze for you and your crew.
