Massage in Aruba: beach, hotel room or garden spa?

Three ways to have a massage on the island, and what to expect from each.

The short answer

On the beach you have the sea air and the sound of the waves, and you may share them with whoever is walking past. In your room or villa you have convenience and privacy. In a garden spa you have quiet, a private treatment room and nothing else to think about. We offer the last two.

A massage on the beach

Several spas at Aruba’s beach hotels offer a massage on the beach itself, in the open air. It is the picture most people have of a vacation massage: a breeze and the sound of the waves.

It is also outdoors, and a beach by the hotels can be busy: there may be wind, warmth, sand and people passing, and less privacy than indoors. If the setting matters to you more than the stillness, it is a lovely choice. Our own massages are given at the spa, or where you are staying.

A massage in your hotel room, villa or house

A mobile massage comes to you. One of our therapists travels to where you are staying and arrives with everything needed, so all you have to do is relax.

It suits a day when you would rather not go anywhere, or a stay in a villa or a house. With us it costs the price of the massage plus a travel fee of $30 per person.

Mobile massage in Aruba

A massage in a garden spa

Nafanny Spa is in Alto Vista, inland from the hotel strip: about 10 minutes by car from the Palm Beach hotels and about 15 from Eagle Beach. Treatments are given in private rooms set in a garden, with birdsong and shade.

It asks one thing of you: a short drive. In return you have a private treatment room, and a garden you are welcome to sit in before your appointment. Parking is available on site.

Every massage, length and price

How to choose

  • For the setting and the photograph: the beach.
  • For convenience, or a day at the villa: a mobile massage.
  • For quiet and the garden: a garden spa.
  • For two of you at once: a couples massage at the spa, or ask us about a mobile massage for two.
