Marriott International took four country titles in the Caribbean and Mexico at the 2026 World Spa Awards:

  • Cayman Islands’ Best Resort Spa: The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Grand Cayman, on Seven Mile Beach, with 111SKIN and ESPA treatments and vibroacoustic beds.
  • Puerto Rico’s Best Resort Spa: Spa Botánico at Dorado Beach, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, a five-acre garden spa with treehouse massages and traditional Manos Santas healers.
  • U.S. Virgin Islands’ Best Resort Spa: The Ritz-Carlton Spa, St. Thomas, open-air and ocean-led.
  • Mexico’s Best Hotel Spa: The St. Regis Spa at The St. Regis Mexico City, above Paseo de la Reforma, using ancestral Mexican techniques and local herbs.

Nominees included The Spa at Salterra, Turks and Caicos; Nimbu Spa at Nekajui Peninsula Papagayo, Costa Rica; AWAY Spa at W São Paulo; and Andes Spirit Spa at Palacio del Inka, Cusco.

For advisors: for wellness clients, a third-party award is an easy reason to choose. Dorado Beach’s garden spa is the stand-out for a full spa day.
