A dazzling array of rejuvenating treatments combining the best of ancient and modern techniques are offered. With its miles of diaphanous white curtains, 14 all-white treatment rooms, chill-out zone and meditation beds, agua has a peaceful, dreamy and almost cloud-like ambiance.
lobbyThe lobby is a large open plan area. The hotel has been designed by Phillipe Stark, a famous designer. The flooring is light wood and the walls and windows are covered in white voile curtains. On entering there is a large red sofa, in the shape of a pair of lips, designed by Salvador Dali. The furniture is very abstract - mostly wooden carved chairs imported from Africa. There are also several gold chairs with carved swan arms.
