34 SPA PROFILE
One of the hottest destinations for 2013, Nicaragua’ s untouched beaches and lush jungle are proving stunning drawcards for affluent travellers looking for luxury and privacy. Spaophiles bound for Latin America will love the Spa at Mukul, an indulgent wellness retreat located at new luxury boutique hideaway Mukul, which opened last month on the Emerald Coast. The spa’ s six spacious private treatment casitas, relaxation spaces and outdoor pavilions have been dressed in handcrafted furnishings and textiles that reflect the unique cultural surroundings. Treatment rooms are large luxury suites that feature private steam showers, outdoor pools and tropical showers. Conceptualised by spa guru Angel Vezina Stewart, founding spa director at the Spa at Las Ventanas al Paraiso, Spa Mukul’ s treatment menu is laced with locally-sourced herbs, spices and flowers, which reflect the fiery Latin soul of this new luxury hotspot. www. mukulresort. com
