A boutique spa called Jabulani will open in March 2009 in the heart of the rainforest at the Machaca Hill eco-resort in Punta Gorda, Belize.
With three treatment rooms, a relaxation room and a swimming pool, other facilities within the Jabulani spa will include a gym, a lounge and a juice bar.
The spa’s signature, Western-inspired treatments will use produce from the retreat’s organic garden.
Machaca Hill, which is owned by parent company Outpost International, has a total of 12 treehouse suites.
The intimate jungle retreat is situated in a remote area of the private 11,000-acre (4,451-hectare) Laughing Falcon Reserve in Belize’s southern-most Toledo District.
Brian Gardiner has recently been appointed to the role of general manager of the resort.
