Sybarites of the Caribbean: 10 New Spas and Treatments Worth the Trip

BAHAMAS
Mandara Spa at the Atlantis Resort, Paradise Island
Exhaustive offerings even include a menu for teens. Come early for a dip in the marble whirlpool before indulging in the Elemis Exotic Lime and Ginger Salt Glow ($175), a body scrub followed by a 50-minute massage (; 242-363-2000).

TURKS AND CAICOS
Spa at the Regent Palms
Mediterranean and Caribbean elements mix at this hip getaway. The Mother of Pearl Body Exfoliator ($85) lasts 30 minutes and uses crushed conch shell and aromatherapy oil (regentpalms.com; 649-946-8666).

JAMAICA
Rockhouse
This charming Negril resort has a palapa built over the water for massages. The Rhassoul Mud Wrap ($90) uses ginger and clove along with rhassoul mud to soothe sore muscles (rockhousehotel.com; 876-957-4373).

Fern Tree at Half Moon Resort
Inside this 68,000-square-foot expanse, even the manicure ($30) gets with the island theme, beginning with an aromatherapy soak and scrub using herbs developed by a native "spa elder," then a firm relaxing massage and a splash of rum to invigorate (halfmoon.com; 878-953-2211).

ANTIGUA
Spa at Curtain Bluff
Five treatment rooms sit seaside in this white-shuttered Spanish colonial-style getaway. The Green Coffee Wrap ($120) gently exfoliates, then lets guests sweat out the toxins believed to trap fatty deposits subcutaneously (curtainbluff.com; 268-462-8400).

Spa Tranquility, Verandah Resort & Spa
This 30-acre waterfront property hews to green principles. The spa's Luminous "C" and Sea facial ($125) uses vitamin C and powdered freeze-dried seaweed in a rejuvenating, glow-inducing session (verandahresortandspa.com; 268-562-6845).

Hermitage Bay
Amid 25 cottages dotted along a hidden cove, this pocket-size spa has great views of the sea. The Sun Soothers Wrap ($90) is the must-have treatment in case of sunburn: aloe, cucumber, and oil are applied to the skin (hermitagebay.com; 268-562-5500).

SINT MAARTEN
Dior Spa at the Cliff at Cupecoy Beach
This three-room spa has a cliffside home overlooking white-sand Cupecoy Beach, so its French balneotherapy bath additives such as seawater, seaweed, and sea salt are especially apropos (diorspa-stmaarten.com; 599-546-6620).

ST. LUCIA
The Landings
Papaya and pineapple are the body scrub ingredients nonpareil in this eight-room center of indulgence. The 30-minute St. Lucian Polish ($85) exfoliates so that vacation tans last longer (landings.rockresorts.com; 877-657-7625).

Jade Mountain
A dozen massages can be done in this new spa complex of 28 suites, most with infinity pools and panoramic views of the Pitons from a hill above classic Anse Chastanet resort. We like the Menage-a-Spa ($210), in which three therapists simultaneously perform a manicure, pedicure, and facial (jademountainstlucia.com; 758-459-4000).
