The sea calms you on the outside. The spa finishes the job on the inside, a short walk from your room along the complex's Boulevard.
It's that gap when the sun is too strong, the kids are napping or nobody has decided anything yet. That's the part of the day the spa takes care of.
The salt is washed off, dinner hasn't started yet and your body is feeling the day on the sand. It is the first slot to fill up.
The rain washes out the beach plan. Instead of waiting on the balcony for the weather to turn, you can trade the morning for an hour of silence.
The last day is usually for packing and checking flight times. A break before that changes the way the trip ends.
Spa Equilíbrio pelas Mãos is run by a third party, and each resort in the complex has its own location: one at Maceió Mar Resort and another at Ipioca Beach. The service is paid separately, outside the all-inclusive.
Spa Equilíbrio pelas Mãos, in the Ipioca complex, has three families of treatments. The team will help you choose when you book. See the Spa menu ↗
Hands-on work for muscles that spent the day at the beach or on the road. There's a room with two tables, for those who don't want to go alone.
Skin care after days of sun and salt water, with products applied by people who know what your skin needs at the end of a beach week.
The bathtub room, with low light and a scent in the air. It is the slowest treatment on the menu, and the least suited to rushing.
Treatments are paid separately and the full menu is available from the spa team. Ask the resort's front desk for the day's list and the length of each session.
The bathtub has a room all to itself, with the lights dimmed and a lantern in place of a bulb. You go in and come out without knowing how long you've been there.
It's the opposite of the rest of the resort, which is all good noise, kids running and music at the pool. Here, silence, and that's what the room is for.
Good holidays are tiring too. The spa is when your body catches up with the trip.Spa Equilíbrio pelas Mãos · Ipioca
The spa is in a corner of the Boulevard designed to keep the noise outside. You go in mid-holiday and come out lighter than you arrived.
The spa isn't in the resort building: it is on Boulevard Luiz Vasconcelos, the 700-meter promenade linking the two resorts to the beach.
On foot, along the promenade. From the lobby, the path is fully paved, lit at night, and passes the playground and the kiosks.
By golf cart. The cart circulates around the complex all day and stops for anyone who'd rather not walk.
Without leaving the complex. No car, taxi or gatehouse needed. You stay inside the same complex the whole time.
Late afternoon after the beach, a rainy morning, the day before you head home. Any time is a good time, but one of them will be yours.
Bookings are made directly at the resort's front desk, at any time during your stay. The team will tell you the available times and therapies.
If you would like to arrange it in advance, message reservations on WhatsApp and tell us the dates of your stay. The team will pass the message on to the spa.
Book ahead on busy days: late-afternoon slots are the most sought after. Spa treatments are paid separately and are not part of the all-inclusive.
