CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico (June 26, 2006) Intimate, luxurious and fresh from a multi-million dollar facelift, Casa del Mar Beach Golf & Spa Resort is making its mark once again in the trendy Tourist Corridor of Los Cabos. Opening this September under the guidance of the renowned Guerlain-Spa Chakra Alliance, the exquisite Spa Chakra will bring an added dimension to this renovated 19th century luxury hacienda-style resort. A global coalition of luxury urban and resort spas in pursuit of the most discerning clientele, the Guerlain-Spa Chakra Alliance chose Casa del Mar as its sole destination in Mexico where clients will receive custom therapies and treatments.

Expanding on the elements of the traditional spa, Casa Del Mar offers clients an intimate analysis to customize each therapy. Treatments are individually tailored according to the results of a “Self Assessment Questionnaire,” an invaluable tool revealing the client’s primary stressors and allowing therapists to personalize the treatments appropriately.

Among the unique, signature therapies and treatments offered by Spa Chakra is the Exeptional Orchidée Impériale Treatment. This two-hour experience incorporates Guerlain’s Orchidée Impériale anti-aging products in a luxurious and deeply relaxing treatment which includes two masks targeting the face, neck and décolleté, as well as a rejuvenating and detoxifying skin massage. Facial contours are redefined, fine lines and wrinkles are smoothed and luminous complexion is uncovered.

Beautyssime, A Progressive Anti-Wrinkle & Radiance Cure treatment, is given in a series of three 90-minute sessions. Designed to suspend the passage of time, lines, wrinkles and pigmentation marks are targeted during an intensive rejuvenation therapy that stimulates skin renewal, restoring radiance and evening out skin coloring and texture.

The allure of Los Cabos, a mixture of dry heat and endless, sun-soaked day, are precisely what can age skin and cause damage to tissue. With these two protective treatments, guests of Casa del Mar are invited preserve and rejuvenate their skin after exposure on the white sand beach or the emerald green golf course. The Spa also offers an array of massages, hand and foot therapies, full-body treatments, holistic therapies and full- and half-day packages.
